The '''blackpill''' is | The '''blackpill''' is a philosophy that female sexual desire is very inflexible and hence men's dating problems require systemic rather than personal solutions, if a solution exists at all.<ref>https://dalrock.wordpress.com/2011/11/21/she-felt-unloved/#comment-22914</ref> This opposes the [[redpill]] movement which promotes [[work on yourself|self-improvement]] and various dating tricks, resulting a rivalry between the two. | ||
The media often conflates incels with the blackpill | On incel boards like [[/r/braincels]] and [[incels.co]], and following [[chadfishing]] experiments and insights from [[online dating]], the blackpill increasingly referred to [[lookism]] with a [[good genes hypothesis|good-gener]] bent. For these blackpillers, ugly, 'genetically inferior' men have no chance of getting laid without more or less tying women down to individual men. Women are assumed to choose based on [[looks]] rather than [[personality]]. | ||
The media often conflates incels with the blackpill while only a minority of incels actually subscribes to the blackpill. Even many self-identified incels do not believe in the blackpill, and many reject the [[pill jargon|pill dichotomy]] altogether. In more general terms, a 'blackpill' usually refers to anything associated with extreme fatalism, nihilism, pessimism, negativity and catastrophizing, a [[repdill]], i.e. suppressed knowledge, with a particular gruesome, inevitable outcome. | |||
