I'll give you an unbiased answer since I'm not seeing any here. The Black Pill is pretty simple to understand if you already know the Red PIll.

Black Pill vs Red Pill

Black Pill shares the Red Pill idea of hypergamy and 80/20 but defines SMV (sexual market value) differently. According to Red Pill ideology, looks-money-status-game are the factors that determine a man's SMV while, according to Black Pill ideology, only looks determine a man's SMV.

Both Red Pill and Black Pill agree that you have to be in the top 20% of men in terms of SMV to truly inspire desire in a woman, they just disagree on what determines SMV and thus what a man has to do to become a top 20%. For example, Red Pillers support PUA and the whole movement was literally formed to give a theorethical framework to why PUA worked. On the other hand, Black Pillers don't believe PUA works as game does not determine male SMV, it's not a coincicence that one of the first and biggest Black Pill boards was called puahate.

Time table

PUA (Pickup Artistry) - early 2000s - exclusively practical, men test on the field what works and what does not work in approaching and seducing women.

Major milestones:

-"The Game" by Neil Strauss becomes a worldwide best seller in 2005. Neil Strauss is a pupil of the greatest pickup artist of all time, Mystery.

-"The Mystery Method" by Mystery himself is published in 2006.

Red Pill (end of 2000s), theorethical framework for PUA.

Major milestones

-Rollo Tomassi gives birth to the Red Pill with his popular blog at the end of the 2000s. His goal is to give a psychological, evolutionary and sociological framework to PUA in order to understand the mechanisms behind why it works on women.

-Rollo Tomassi publishes the first book of the series "The Rational Male" in 2013. This is the Red Pill bible.

Black Pill (early 2010s), counter-movement to Red Pill and PUA

Major milestones

- A group of disillusioned young men starts posting on boards like sluthate and puahate. They believe the Red Pill and PUAs lie to men while believing that only looks matter in attracting women. It's important to note that in this time period dating apps were, for the first time in history, replacing real life dating.

Basically. If you are not attractive, no girl will ever like you. If no girl will ever like you, you are condamned to a lonely and miserable life. You'll never experience what is considered normal human relationship like romanticism, love, sex, not even true friendship. If you have the desire to marry and build a family, just forget it. You will need to find other reasons to live for. You are not entitled to anything, so just accept it and go on, if you can. Redpill says you can build a better yourself and try to get something, blackpill deny it and says you have no possibilities. Basically.

Bluepill: Women won't date you. It's not really anyone's fault, but there are things you can do to improve yourself and become more likeable. Go to therapy, join clubs in your community, and improve your hygiene and social skills.

Redpill: Women won't date you. It's because they suck, but there are things you can do to trick them into liking you. Get swole, learn manipulation tactics, or try sex tourism.

Blackpill: Women won't date you. It's because they evolved to be hypergamous sluts incapable of love and there is nothing you can do about it. Might as well go out and get that waifu pillow and wallow in hatred and self-pity. This is your life now.

Blackpill basically believes that dating is mostly looks. And looks is mostly genetic

gsauce8 · 2023-01-09T17:40:50+00:00

Nihilism basically.

Blackpill means looks are everything.

I’d say most answers here are inaccurate, stuff like nihilism and misogyny can come hand in hand with the black pill but aren’t necessarily parts of it. The main idea is the concept of hypergamy in women and that looks are the most important thing when it comes to dating. The major difference between it and the red pill is that it says that stuff like game and money will not trump physical attractiveness. Being a blackpiller doesn’t mean that you’ve never had a gf or hate women, check out wheat waffles’s video on the matter.
