Someone who is blackpilled is extremely pessimistic about their life, society, and the future. This term is an offshoot of redpilled and bluepilled.
Like redpilled people, blackpilled people believe they understand the true state of life and society. This "understanding" leads blackpilled people to believe that a) there is no place for them in society and b) this problem is unsolvable.
As a result, blackpilled people may be nihilistic and pessimistic and usually have no qualms about saying so. In some cases, blackpilled people's negative worldview can inspire them to take extreme actions, including harming themselves or others.
