Blackpill memes on Reddit were largely for shitposting and venting,<ref>http://redditsearch.io/?term=braincels%20vent%20&dataviz=false&aggs=false&subreddits=&searchtype=comments&search=true&start=0&end=1582986983&size=1000</ref><ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/IncelExit/comments/dqddyw/what_does_exit_mean_in_this_sub/f62negc/</ref> but near-cultish elements have coexisted due to some members taking the shitposting very seriously. | |||

Some of the most cultish members in blackpilled forums tell incels to commit suicide and actively seek to "spread the blackpill", which means using cherrypicked studies to evangelize others to "swallow" the blackpill narrative. | Some of the most cultish members in blackpilled forums tell incels to commit suicide and they actively seek to "spread the blackpill", which means using cherrypicked studies to evangelize others to "swallow" the blackpill narrative and shaming non-believers as [[cuck]]s or [[soyboy]]s. | ||
