What's with the whole "blackpill" foolishness?

[Anonymous]

In the internet in the last few years, all this weird incel "Looks actually matter to girl" shit has popped up, I saw a question like this on here which is why I wrote this. Well, no shit. Do looks matter to guys? Yes. Then why shouldn't they for girls? I don't understand this stuff like "blackpill" stating things like "WoMeN actually care about looks" and there are millions of likes and comments like it's some insanely profound truth.

And then there's a thousand more "blackpill" subjects that literally toddlers know

"Women actually care about looks some like guys" 20 million likes 200,000 comments debating?

Am I missing something? Or is it something in the water I don't know.

The black pill is a philosophy that men's dating problems require systemic rather than personal solutions, if a solution exists at all.

It's Appearance > Personality > Money for both genders, but women lie more about it.

I normally hear that term as something someone takes when they find themselves in utter nihilism or despair when the find out what the state of the world is right now. It's not just exclusive to incels.
