blackpilled

Beyond hope now

Blackpilled describes someone who has adopted an utterly hopeless worldview, believing that certain outcomes—social, political, romantic—are predetermined and impossible to change.

The term emerged from online forums, particularly incel communities, where it signifies accepting that personal improvement is futile: He got blackpilled after years of rejection.

More broadly, it describes fatalistic pessimism about any system or situation: She's completely blackpilled on electoral politics.
