Draft:Blackpilled
(Blackpill has been denied numerous times by another individual so for now I'm calling this draft "blackpilled" while I work on it).
The Blackpill is an ideology associated with incel culture that developed on the internet during the late 2000s to early 2010s. Emerging as an outgrowth of the Manosphere's red pill and blue pill framework, the blackpill is defined by a nihilistic worldview that characterizes biological determinism as the sole determining factor in finding a romantic or sexual partner. It rejects the ideas of personal agency and self-improvement often associated with the redpill.[1]
The blackpill belief system is also applied outside the context of romantic relationships, the term is used interchangeably with a general nihilistic or pessimistic worldview[2] as well as in the context of inherent and immutable traits being the primary drivers of success or failure in areas such as education, career, and friendships. w
