I think a great way to combat this is to be a mentor and a friend to the people in your life you feel might fall prey to these lies. I remember what it was like getting rejected by girls, hell, it still happens. But learning how to move past it and handle future interactions appropriately is very important. If you know a younger guy who's having a tough time, an older guy, or a girl for that matter; take the time to share some advice. This kind of shit can't be removed from the Internet, but the number of people who fall for it can be reduced.
I like this train of thought. I'm an oldest brother, and I make a point to try and teach my little brothers a healthy approach to dating, and I know from personal experience that without someone to talk to about that kind of thing, it can become very appealing to let something like TRP have it's say.
