==Cultural appropriation== | |||
It is important to emphasize that the terms blackpilled, blackpiller, blackpill, blackpilling and the other numerous variations were coined and popularized by involuntary celibates, originally on an incel-related blog (as noted in the definitions subsection below). That is because there are numerous nonadjacent subcultures, amorphous groups and ideologues who are attempting to co-opt the term, usually without giving credit to its original definition or coinage. Collectively, all these ideologues roughly define the term "blackpill" as loosely meaning "pessimism" or "bleakness". However, this cultural appropriation creates the unfortunate repercussion of perceived association or coalescence via usage of similar lingo, jargon and vernacular. | |||
Fundamentally, almost all communities in the [[incelosphere]] do not support this attempted convergence by non-incel communities who steal incel terms for their own unsavoury ends. That's because its well documented that such semantic change and blurring of the meaning of terms such as "blackpill" inevitably leads to amelioration, desemanticization and pejoration. Assuredly, meaninglessness surrounding the term blackpill is sure to occur if this continues unabated. | |||
