The '''Whitepill''' is a worldview based on the maximization of happiness of an individual, by [[acceptance]] of his situation. It is a stoic and ascetic extension of the [[blackpill]]. Put more concisely, the whitepill extends the blackpill by prescribing behavior, not by just describing reality as the blackpill does. | The '''Whitepill''' is a worldview based on the maximization of happiness of an individual, by [[acceptance]] of his situation, in lieu of denial or anger.

While the whitepill doesn't strictly follow Bhuddist, stoic, or ascetic ideals, much of the suggested worldview intersects these philosophies; since the aim of lessening the burdensome nature of inceldom can be achieved this way. It is important to note that while the whitepill is used mainly in the area of relationships, it can in itself be applied to any area of life; from work and studying, to long-term goals and self-improvement. | |||

==History== | |||
While the term whitepill has been used in the past as far back as 2017, it has been done so sparsely and without a clear or fixed definition, often being seen as a threat to the blackpill due to this fact. | |||

While the topic had been discussed privately as far back as August 2017, the first threads by [[SergeantIncel]] laying down a foundation for the whitepill and its contrast to the other pills were posted in 2018: | |||

That same year, [[Whitepill.org]] (https://whitepill.org) was created as a blog exploring the concept in depth. [[SergeantIncel]] has stated that his ideas have evolved since then, and is working on improving the concept. | |||

It is at times misunderstood that the whitepill is simple coping or denial; on the contrary, its ideals emphasize moving past desires and needs in order to avoid pain and suffering. Whereas the [[blackpill]] leaves the individual's fate to themselves after learning of the reality of society (often leading to depression, anxiety, hopelessness or nihilism), the whitepill attempts to be pragmatic and work with the tools that are available. | |||
==Analysis== | ==Analysis== | ||
Although society is often content when a depressed demographic becomes interested in the whitepill, the situation which pushes people to become interested in the whitepill in the first place is often indicative of a maladaptive nature of the given society. | |||
If an involuntary celibate applies their whitepill ideals to their dating life, they might realize that they would be more befitting of a "voluntary celibate'', or [[volcel]]. Regardless, there is much of a grey area where individuals may not fit in any particular category. | |||
