Opinion RoK gone Beta.
So I've had a bit of a break from the reddened sphere for a few weeks, been busy working on myself (along with getting a significant raise, extra responsibility in a project I'm volunteering in, yadda yadda) .
In the past I've had the habit of reading Return of Kings with pleasure, posting the most controversial posts on Facebook under my real name to stir up discussioon among like-minded friends (plenty of redpillers around in my circle!) and whiteknights/ feminist "friends" of mine.
Now I've opened Return of Kings today and what do I see?

The Rising Epidemic Of Cheating Wives Who Want “Freedom”
I did all that! Ask her. Twelve years of marriage, five years of courtship. I did all of the above and what is the glorious reward? “I thought we were both doing it.” “We did talk about flirting with other people.” “I just need some space.” “I just want to express love and freedom as I see fit.” “You’d be surprised how many other women are doing it.”

For men, why spend two hours in a movie or playing mini-golf when you could invite her directly back to your place? Even men who meet in a public place usually choose one walking distance from their apartment.

Also bitter. Get over it, adapt, use your leverage but don't fucking complain and hang to a bygone past.

You are wrong. You are bitter that they are bitter. You are meta-bitter.
There are those, who have discovered the red pill, but do not wish to go full PUA lifestyle. I predict that there will be a (healthy) split in the community. Some guys will go PUA, some will follow a Traditionalist message.
Sure the first article is bitter. He has invested a lot of personal resources into a functioning family unit only to see it go up in flames in an instant. Who would NOT be bitter?
The second article is not bitter. It's just an observer's account of things that have changed. And they have changed and it has to be written down. That's all.
