The first large blackpill communities were hosted on [[Reddit]]. [[R/incels|/r/incels]] (a quarantine evasion of [[/r/truecels]]) was the first major incel community to use the term 'blackpill' and [[/r/braincels]] was the largest one. Most of the discussions there focused on [[roastie|slut-shaming]] and [[lookism]], largely ruminating on [[Tinder experiments|experiments]] and memes from [[r9k]], but also creating new ones, especially memes on lookism such as [[St. Blackops2cel]]. As of 2022, incels.is is the largest blackpill community, but it is explicitly an incel community, not a general community for the blackpill.<ref>https://incels.is/threads/rules-and-faq.799/</ref> The blackpill is also a fairly common philosophy on general internet forums such as [[4chan]] and on lookism oriented self-improvement forums such as [[Looksmax.org]]. One can even see discussion of the blackpill on sites such as hairlosstalk.com, further indicating that the concept is not confined to the incel subculture. | The first large blackpill communities were hosted on [[Reddit]].

Blackpillers mostly believe in [[biological essentialism|biological essentialism]] and evolutionary explanations for human social and sexual behavior. Many of these beliefs are not new at all, but draw from established scientific literature, e.g. on [[Briffault's law]], [[Bateman's principle]], [[Fisherian runaway]] and [[sexy sons hypothesis]]. | Blackpillers mostly believe in [[biological essentialism|biological essentialism]] and evolutionary explanations for human social and sexual behavior.
