/pt/ – Petrarchan

I just wish there was still somewhere left on the internet with same vibes the sub used to have. It really was one of the last authentic places on the internet. It seems this place and the private sub are the only places that come close, but they're really not active enough to fully scratch the itch. It really feels like the old sub < 20k users was the last real place on the internet

r/redscarepodprivate You have to pass the vibe check and get invited by the mods. Though I'm sure if you messaged the mods and told them you heard about it here, you could probably get let in as long as your not like an r/politics power poster or something, lol. Its actually alot more active these days, and is probably the closest you can get to the old sub, so its honestly worth it to see if you can get in.

What was so good about it? Only started listening to red scare and browsing the reddit in 2025 but not gonna lie it seems pretty pretentious and try hard, but I do like that there's actual effort put into posting there and sometimes people have interesting insights. Small boards on 4chan can be good too but you have to put up with a lot of mental illness and flaming. I would say there are other places, niche forums, but they cater to very specific topics.

RS and Chan culture both benefit from the frisson of saying something candid that would never be admitted in polite society. Polite society, in some accounts, is a supremely elaborate mating ritual. So the things that polite society cannot admit are often things that are contrary to the successful conduct of the mating ritual. The perspective of the incel is the perspective of the person who has absolutely failed in polite society. RS succeeded by finding a /pol/-rotten single mom who would lend her voice to the bizarre candid discourse of chan/incel culture. DM me if you want any more explanations. I'm @answersguy on petrarch chan

>Like the people on the ledditcord don't even seem to listen to the podcast either they seem like just loser NEETs. Then I find this place and there's discussion about /tttt/. Also theres an rdrama sub for this shit too. The 2019 r/redscarepod posters were also, in bulk, former imageboard posters and fully aware of /tttt/, some of them were old r/drama heads, many slid over from r/stupidpol which again has overlap with the former two; the difference is not one of being distanced from internet culture but of simply being a better, smarter, more quality person. That's it. Smarter people are able to contrast opposing views without my team-your team politics; they can crack jokes when the moment arises but still adhere to humanist principles; they always place the virtues of taste and refinement above "winning" online debates; and most of all, the "golden age" r/redscarepod was imbued with cosmopolitan sentiment, the idea that core American culture has something backwards about it, and to pull oneself above that means looking outward, for those who live there. This last part was the key influence from the hosts themselves - they emphasized their immigrant backgrounds (thus the podcast title) and looked towards Europe. This, and not sliding to the right, is the real change over the past three years. Anna especially has gone gung-ho into American nativism as if every red state Mason and McKenna can even pronounce her name let alone identify her as one of them. I digress. I don't regret constantly deleting my old posts seeing as "classic" r/redscarepod is only gaining in notoriety as a historical document and moment in time, and studied by losers like OP and everyone in here, who are born to only follow, and never lead.

Everyone thinks it's a /lit/ retirement home, but it's really for /r9k/

Are the alleged coomers from rs_x there too?

Because find me a culturally relevant space, discourse, idea, phenomena, whatever of the past 10 years that has not trickled down to the world from either chans or tumblr.

Is the rs_x coomer thing just because of selfie sunday or are there more troubling details underneath it?

>>6934 (OP) >How/why did so much online culture coalesce superficially around these two benzo addicted alcoholics? It's because Peter Thiel, in spite of his professed religion, decided to setup a non-religious, and specifically non-Christian, right-wing movement. Hence Bronze Age Pervert, the misfit Richard Hanania, Red Scare podcast, and too many other things to mention now too. This is about promoting embryo selection by the way, which normal Christians can't do because it involves separating procreation from sexual intercourse and also the killing of embryos deemed unworthy of being born. Remember that politics and culture is ALWAYS top-down, NOT bottom-up. 'Organic' phenomena are not really so. By the way, because Thiel is educated about theology but chooses to reject Christianity, he is actually much worse than a pagan because he knows what he has rejected and rejects it nonetheless. >>6975

Apparently, the rs_x mod is involved in all sorts of seediness.
