A mom has gone viral on TikTok for sharing how she found out her son had been “red-pilled“, and what she did about it. In case you’re not familiar with the term, “red-pilling,” it refers to men embracing the idea that their unhappiness and failure to “score” is the fault of women and feminists. In short: misogyny.
The parent, who goes by @rchlprkr, spoke about how her son confidently blurted out that “women are gold diggers”. She then explained in detail how she responded to him. And how, in her words, she “successfully ‘de-pilled’ her ‘red-pilled’ son.” The video has been liked more than 279,000 times since it was posted. It’s well worth a watch, even if you aren’t a mom. Or don’t have a son.
