== | ==Modern meaning and usage== | ||
In the [[manosphere]], the blackpill refers to a collection of uncomfortable truths about dating and social life. They are especially uncomfortable because they are largely beyond one's control and solutions would require systemic changes more so than individual changes. Someone who links these studies is called a blackpiller. The studies in the blackpill have been frequently employed by some blackpillers to convince [[determinism|determinist]] incels to adopt [[fatalism]]. However, as the usage of the term has extended beyond the original definition, many modern blackpillers resist internal calls to adopt a fatalist mindset. | In the [[manosphere]], the blackpill refers to a collection of uncomfortable truths about dating and social life.
