<blockquote><p>Stage-1 (Denial): “What is this cavemanish-sounding “Game” of which you speak? Actually, I’d rather you didn’t answer that.”</p>
<p>Stage-2 (Anger): “SEEEXIIISST!!!”</p>
<p>Stage-3 (Bargaining): “… but even if Game is real, it doesn’t mean anything, does it? You know, women like soft cuddly fat guys, right? Game only works on a certain kind of girl… (or something).”</p>
<p>Stage-4 (Depression): “Who could possibly have imagined that reality was so evil?”</p>
<p>Stage-5 (Acceptance): “Feminism really has been a mountain of dishonest garbage, hasn’t it? Guess it’s time to learn Game or die lonely in Mom’s basement playing World of Warcraft…”</p></blockquote>
<p>Interestingly, that post was from 2013, so the Rude Word of Game has been percolating through the blogocultural consciousness for a while. Le Chateau Heartiste may be a world wide web outpost, but its ideas have traveled the globe enlightening minds and engorging&#8230;souls&#8230;.from a time when the red pill was still a Matrix movie gimmick and not a manosphere or alt-Right buzzmeme.</p>
