Gonzalo Lira

Gonzalo Ángel Quintilio Lira López (, February 29, 1968 – January 12, 2024) was a Chilean-American novelist, filmmaker, commentator and self-styled dating coach. He was involved in the manosphere, posting anti-feminist content under the name Coach Red Pill. As a resident of Kharkiv, Ukraine, he vlogged about the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, and was described as spreading Russian disinformation and propaganda.

In April 2022, Lira disappeared briefly, claiming he'd been detained by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU). In May 2023, Lira was arrested and charged with producing and publishing material that tried to justify the ongoing Russian invasion, which is illegal under Ukrainian law. Lira was released on bail and subsequently tried to flee the country. He was arrested again for violating his bail conditions, and died of pneumonia in custody on January 12, 2024.
