The '''bluepill''' means unquestionably accepting what the MSM (mainstream media) has to say, and by extension, [[platitude|platitudes]] (i.e. [[chadsplaining]]) in the dating scene.

It has developed to mean an inability to see nuance, a belief in the just-world hypothesis, being unenlightened to the harsh realities of the world, views that align with cliches and feminism. It is the preference of believing in comforting or convenient tropes, especially when it concerns a person's world view, with emphasis on the pretense or opinion that goes contrary to the research suggesting physical attraction is utmost in social or sexual situations.

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 a liberal pocket of western Europe, are not the same as bluepilled views in the deep south of the United States. In laymen's terms, being bluepilled means being unable to produce original thoughts and a mindset that favors rehashing established ideas that have already been relayed to said person. | Bluepillers are recognizable by their susceptibility to voicing the argumentum ad populum fallacy.
