Whitepill: Difference between revisions

The '''Whitepill''' is a worldview based on the maximization of happiness of an individual, by [[acceptance]] of their situation, in lieu of denial or anger. 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 basis of the Whitepill is “optimistic nihilism,” meaning the individual does not condemn others for their nature, but rather accepts it as reality and improves their own life with confidence.

While the Whitepill doesn't strictly follow Buddhist, stoic, or ascetic ideals, much of its suggested worldview intersects with these philosophies, as lessening the burdensome nature of inceldom can often be achieved this way.

It is at times misunderstood that the whitepill is simple [[coping]] or [[Denialcel|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.
