The '''bluepill''' means unquestionably accepting what the MSM ([[mainstream media]]) and similar conventional sources have 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 which is accompanied by virtue-signalling, being unenlightened to the unpleasant realities of the world - thereby maintaining the status quo, views that align with cliches; and in the manosphere, extends to 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. | The '''bluepill''' means unquestionably accepting what the MSM ([[mainstream media]]) and similar conventional sources have to say, and by extension, [[platitude|platitudes]] (i.e. [[chadsplaining]]) in the dating scene.

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. | Although the bluepill and redpill are opposites, they do not necessarily equate to opposite political/social positions.

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

There are byproducts to the tendency of being gullible enough to swallow the MSM message wholesale. These include taking on characteristics typically associated with the MSM, such as deliberate sensationalism, a peculiarity that forces the journalist to engage in broad-brushing and pigeonholing in a scrupulous revenue accumulation attempt aimed at their unsuspecting patronage. That's one of the reasons why bluepillers are much more prone to pigeonholing than the rest of the population - a direct spawn of MSM behaviour. This propensity for pigeonholing is what makes the bluepilled mentality so dangerous, and as such bluepillers may be recognizable by their susceptibility to broadbrushing, pigeonholing and voicing the argumentum ad populum fallacy. This otherizing behaviour can precipitate into various forms of mental illness, including [[mentalcel|mentalceldom]]. | |||
