Bluepillers are recognizable by their susceptibility to voicing the argumentum ad populum fallacy. Although the bluepill and redpill are opposites, they do not necessarily equate to opposite political/social positions. The divergence pertains to ''how'' one has reached those positions. However being bluepilled is typically one's original belief system, i.e. the one you were brought up with. As such, bluepilled views in, let's say Europe, are not the same as bluepilled views in the deep south of the United States. | Bluepillers are recognizable by their susceptibility to voicing the argumentum ad populum fallacy.
