The '''bluepill''' means unquestionably accepting what the MSM ([[mainstream media]]), similar conventional sources, and associated [[platitude]]s (ie [[chadsplaining]]) have to say about the dating scene. It has developed to mean an inability to see nuance, a belief in the just-world fallacy which is accompanied by virtue-signalling, being unenlightened to the unpleasant realities of the world - thereby maintaining the status quo, views that align with platitudes and the argumentum ad populum proposition; and in the manosphere, extends to feminism and naive romanticism in regards to the bluepilled individual's perception of human sexual behavior. 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.

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.

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]]). Someone who exhibits bluepilled thought processes is a ''bluepiller'' or sheeperson, a term derived from ''sheeple'', a term which itself has a lot in common with the bluepill.
