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.

Merely rejecting the narrative of the bluepill, makes one "nonbluepilled" or [[purplepilled]]. However actively opposing the bluepill, means you may fall into any of the other pills (see pill jargon]]). | |||

The robocracy and cybernetic rule within the film is seen in the [[incelosphere]] and [[manosphere]] as a metaphor for the mainstream media. Normies in the real world, and the characters in the Matrix who take things at face value both have a tendency for conformity and succumbing to the clout of mass media technology. This sheeple-like behaviour is referred to as "bluepilled". | The robocracy and cybernetic rule within the film is seen in the [[incelosphere]] and [[manosphere]] as a metaphor for the mainstream media.

[[ | Voicing opinions that contradict the conventional narrative takes courage, because you are confronting the beliefs and opinions of the majority of society. Thats why some [[purplepill]]ers, redpillers and blackpillers may view bluepillers as cowards, weaklings and sissies. Whereas some bluepillers genuinely believe in all the tenets of bluepill, there are other bluepillers who are not so easily influenced to uncritically accept society's mores. This second subset of bluepillers espouse bluepilled viewpoints in an attempt at virtue signalling. Again, to make clear, there are two archetypes within the bluepilled community; the former, the type of person who has drank the kool-aid; and the latter, the virtue-signalling type. | ||
