It is a great disappointment to many if the legend of Roosh V has really come to an end and he's more of a normie now. He appears to no longer be someone the Manosphere can rally behind or follow. But if he no longer wants to be apart of that world, I suppose that is their decision to make.

Not quite sure why anyone would care what some 'redpilled' dude only famous for being a great big man-hoe does. I wonder if his dedication to his new God will last or if he'll get bored and wander to some new cause eventually.

Frankly, I think he's learned that it isn't actually manly to treat women's bodies as masturbation aides. So many young men's minds are infected by the sickness of pornography that they can't relate to women properly. It's sad.

That sounds like you are blaming pornography industries, instead of these men. There is absolutely nothing wrong with watching porn, as long as you have ability to separate these movies / magazines in your mind from real life. And if someone can not do that, then problem is with them, and we should deal with that.

Is it video games fault that some people are violent? No! So why accuse porn for someone being an asshole towards women?

Because it's supposedly evil and degenerate and what not.

Also because that porntab or that entry in the browser chronology is all too tempting for some young catholic males here.

It's worth considering that he may not be sincere and is applying the principles of the red pill In earnest by exploiting the fact people can't prove he isn't.

By sleeping around in his early years and then shifting into a religious conservative later, he gets the best of both. It's important to note that this dynamic is a reflection of what the red pill alleges women do (Sleep with alpha males in their prime years, then settle for a beta male later.).

Roosh has done the sleeping around phase and is now pitching monogamy and chastity, presumably in the hope of obtaining a virgin wife.

This only works to convince those christian chaste women if he pretends he has repented. He is treating them like beta males are treated according to red pill philosophy, conned by duplicitous and insincere "conversions" from women that are in actuality just utility maximization.

In the same way that it is alleged women would never admit consciously deciding to exploit the sexual market place to the men they eventually settle down with, Roosh cannot openly admit he is being insincere In his conversion to a potential future wife.

It's striking that it maps precisely onto his worldview and you shouldn't take him at his word that he has in fact changed his opinions. If someone spends years arguing duplicity and insincerity in your later years is a utility maximizing choice, and then suddenly they have a radical change in view that maps precisely onto it, don't take them seriously.

He's slept around and is now angling for a virgin wife. That's all. He spent decades telling us to see through precisely this kind of maneuver and how we should realize those who fall for it are dupes being conned by their partners. (I.E, that they are consciously "Pre-cheating" on you, knowing you won't be able to do the same.).

There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.

He was never someone the manosphere rallied behind. The manosphere rallies behind nobody because they're a bunch of fundamentally incompatible movements held together only by the fact that they're all broadly antifeminist.

Roosh was hated by MRAs, Incels, and MGTOWs.

I wouldn't even go that far. He was a primary red-piller and PUA, but nobody else took him seriously or quoted any of his ideas or work.

The fish rots from the head down. Of course the behavior of men who degrade women is wrong but there shouldn't be an industry that normalizes the degradation of women in the first place. We've got to put our collective foot down and say no to pornography.

Too late. Thanks to the internet pornography is now universally available. Theres no way to put that ghost back into the bottle. Steaming portals are ubiquitous too. Oh the later harmed the industry btw... I would know ; )

I think it depends of a porn. Most probably does not degrade, as there is nothing "degrading" about active sexual life. It just gives unrealistic thoughts to some that this is how it works... But honestly, if someone watches porn and thinks that this is how society works, then they are fucking idiots.

As there are plenty of over sexual people, losing porn industry would make everything way worse. Just let people watch porn, and teach them to respect real life people.

Like I said before, compare it to video games. We are not gonna ban violent video games, are we?

It's been a long time ago. It was an interesting time and I gained some insight through it. I have upgraded my game since then, rest assured.

Porn isn't supposed to be real and what happens there is almost always heavily coreographed to varying degrees. It can be even, in some ways, a ritualized sex performance.
