The first large blackpilled communities were hosted on [[Reddit]], e.g. [[Braincels]]. Most of the discussions there focused on [[roastie|sluttiness]] and [[lookism]], largely ruminating memes from [[r9k]], but also contributing novels ones.

The more cultish members actively seek to "spread the blackpill" to "spark a revolution", which means using true but often cherrypicked studies to evangelize others to "swallow" the blackpill narrative. | The more cultish members actively seek to "spread the blackpill" to "spark a revolution", which means using true but often cherrypicked studies to evangelize others to "swallow" the blackpill narrative. | ||
