I'm not sure if you'd call this a victory per se but since my having taken the Red Pill circa 2 years ago it was unquestionably the moment when I turned my back on some of my former attributes.
Also it's an opportunity for me to provide documentation of the event and to organize it in my own mind. So here it is.
Back when I was still blue pill, I had a pretty large circle of friends composed of all the dregs of society, ranging from NEETs to faggots, deviants and even a tranny (whom I affectionately nicknamed Aerosmith after Dude Looks Like a Lady) Of course we professed the inconsequential platitudes of kinship and bonding despite only meeting en masse a few times a year.
Then I swallowed the Red Pill and started the journey of self-improvement. I got my ass down the gym, I started reading a lot more and generally investigating the why behind everything far more than I ever had in the past. As a result I had far more information in my arsenal that was augmented by first-hand evidence.
Something else was different as well. Among my friends I started to notice little things that bugged me - nobody was punctual, niceties were professed but never acted upon and everybody just seemed far more motley than they had in the past. I even gave one girl a dressing down for taking a picture of me smoking a cigar because it was something she'd never seen before - nothing could have screamed a lack of life experience more than that.
I questioned the values that they held and the opinions they spouted as being unfounded by empirical evidence and based on nothing more than espoused dogma. Of course I was chewed out but it was what I'd come to expect.
About a year ago, we were all set for one of our meetings when I was told that it was no longer on the ballot since the organizer had too many work commitments and was unavailable for the event. So I shrugged it off and decided to roll solo since there'd be less logistical complications and no baggage to deal with.
While I was out and about I ran into a couple of guys from our group. I figured they'd decided to do the same but after some light questioning they revealed that the original plan was still happening.
After doing a little investigative research I found the idiots had posted photos on facebook for anyone to see. Needless to say, I was pissed at having been lied to and decided to confront the group's de facto leader.
Coming across some mutual friends, they relayed the necessary information for me to find him. Clearly they hadn't gotten the memo.
I found him and grabbed him before loudly saying in front of a crowd "We need to have a conversation. Now." First I noted how he was present after claiming the contrary some months prior. At first he tried to pass it off that he was there because of a spur-of-the-moment decision but then I confronted him with the photographic evidence. His mannerism immediately became uncertain and defensive. He was rumbled and he knew it. As the conversation progressed he struggled to maintain constant eye contact and his body language was fidgety, indicative of discomfort and a desire to flee.
I should also point out that on no less than 2 occasions, we were approached by white knights who tired to intervene on his behalf. I batted them away easily enough.
Eventually I wrestled something resembling the truth from him. Apparently the group had become disillusioned with my behavior and attitudes since my having taken the Red Pill. They held a secret vote and decided to kick me out. Of course nobody ever had the guts to tell me to my face.
I smirked when he told me that the sentiment was nigh-universal and said "17 to 1 huh? That's pretty good odds......for me." It goes without saying that he accepted no personal responsibility and was trying to weasel his way out of the consequences of his actions.
I ended the conversation abruptly by saying "Well, since you're the supposed leader, I want you to take a message to those deviants and cowards. As of this moment, every single one of you is now dead to me. The only time I ever want to see any of your names ever again is when I read them in the obituary of the papers" before about-facing and marching off.
Perhaps I could have been a little more detached during the confrontation but overall I was satisfied with the results.
That was my first test of conviction since embarking on the journey of self-improvement and my reaction could be summed up thusly:
