TL;DR:

Hozier's a bitch, comedians know what's up.


INTRODUCTION:

Contributors occasionally post about it. Comments about it appear in almost every thread from the conspiracy theory nuts*. RP survivalists in their bunkers eat a salty MRE while saying civilization will crash and burn thanks to BLUEPILL CULTURE but don't usually go into detail or give pointed examples of what it means. I've picked music. We'll look at Hozier (our bluepill guy) and Garfunkel & Oates (our redpill women) to illustrate what BP culture is and make you the reader aware of what's going on so you can divorce the entertainment from the reality.

*There is no hidden temple of conspiring Jews or robed Illuminati performing magic rituals to enslave you and turn you into a beta, stop spouting nonsense and get back on your lithium.


BODY:

It's topical to point out the subtle cultural innuendo in the new Star Wars movies and Hollywood blockbusters, but people spend more time listening to music. I listen to music at least 4 hours a day compared to a movie at most once every few weeks. Music is in your car while driving to work, streaming from the computer while sitting at your desk, in your headphones while lifting at the gym, and every clothing store and bar and coffee shop you go into has music spilling out of the speakers. Many of us are musicians who create it when not listening to it. The occasional forgettable summer blockbuster be damned, we're raised on and exposed to BP music from the time we're born.

The Bluepill:

As a folk musician I love and respect Hozier. His music is emotional, powerful but humble, and taken from his own life experience. He is a genuine, talented man with artistic integrity and takes pride in his work (something I see in a lot of Irish musicians). His music is catchy, easy to listen to and unique. Damned if he isn't bluepill as fuck.

If you listen to the lyrics in his songs you see patterns form: take Cherry Wine at face value and you think Hozier has a fetish for abusive women and the drug-addled sluts he vaguely builds his songs around. Like Real People Do, one of my favorites, is a poignant song about two broken people hiding their pasts from each other. Foreigner's God is about trying to love and heal a sexually abused woman. Jackie & Wilson is an almost comical story about a man's Disney-esque fantasy of marrying and raising children with a chick he had a ONS with. It's all fantastic music and the tone implies tongue-in-cheek awareness, but one would think he was beaten by his mother and is great at attracting women but terrible at keeping them. He sounds like a man in need of strong masculine guidance. The man in these songs isn't the man you or your sons want to emulate.

It's less what you say and how you say it, If you're attractive enough what you say doesn't matter at all. Despite being a bluepilled Irish blues player Hozier gets laid a lot. If you ask girls what his music is about you'll get blank stares or “I dunno I just like the sound,” but he is a good looking popular(!) musician. QED.

With no studies to back it up I can only speculate on whether or not boys are more active listeners than girls. Given that all the people in my social circles singing the music they hear or knowing the song lyrics are guys versus only some girls, my first impression is guys are more influenced by the lyrics of a song than women.

The Redpill:

The court jester is the smartest person in the room and knows how to disguise the ugly truth in makeup. Garfunkel & Oates is a comedy band of two women (Kate and Riki) in their 30s. You've seen them on Reddit, they have their own show on HBO, and their music is funny. Their songs talk about the cognitive dissonance of Catholic schoolgirls on how important their virginity is, the desperation of women hitting The Wall, and the importance of having a paternal figure in a child's life.

They are a pair of women who learned how women really operate and express it through their music. I don't think they formed G&O to change the world or any such silliness, as they write music that's just funny for it's own sake. Instead they wrote comedy, and it happened to highlight the ugly truths of femininity. This is the musical equivalent of an independent social study confirming the conclusions of everyone else.


CONCLUSION:

I'm not deriding the hard work and talent that goes into making music, TV, movies, or any other form of entertainment. I like watching the new Star Wars movie or having my emotions stirred by good music, but I take Hozier's lyrics and the underlying 'cultural message' of Star Wars like you should take the rest of the movie: nothing more than an entertaining fantasy.

That's the culture we live in, so like women, smirk at it and don't take any of it seriously.
