Why Parents Need to Intervene if They Suspect Their Son Has Been 'Redpilled'

Redpill ideology can be found on forums like Reddit, and pushes sexist and racist rhetoric which blames women for every problem, from loneliness to financial strain—and it's gaining traction among teen boys. Here's what parents need to know.

When the movie The Matrix was first released in 1999, audiences immediately latched onto to the one of the same themes in the film: the idea of red pills and blue pills—one that could awaken you to the harsh reality of the world, and the other that let them remain in the comfort of the Matrix.Today, people are still borrowing that metaphor that to describe their ideological values most infamously in online communities that call themselves “redpilled.”

“The term is frequently used within online communities and subcultures, particularly those associated with men's rights, ‘incel’ (involuntarily celebite) ideology, and white supremacy,” says Dr. Poncin. “This includes…adhering to heteronormative gender roles with ‘gender-typical roles’ for each.”

Redpill content appears all over social media, from video platforms like TikTok to public community forums like Reddit and Discord.

For instance, before even being able to access r/TheRedPill on Reddit, users are served a warning which warns that the forum is "quarantined" because it's “dedicated to shocking or highly offensive content.”

In another post titled “Trying so hard not to fall into Red Pill,” a Reddit user writes how frustrated he is because he “just can't understand why women don't like me,” claiming that he’s “finding it really hard to believe height and race don't matter,” when it comes to how women choose romantic partners. This kind of reductive, bordering on racially insensitive thinking when it comes to women and romance is common in redpill communities.

In a different post, another young man writes, “I started out black-pilled thinking that life is over for you if you're below 6ft and handsome, then I began to research the red pill which changed my ideology into believing all women care about is money and fame, designed to be nothing more than a housewife, and men shouldn't show emotion…What do I do? Get off the internet? Detox from toxic advice from the internet?”

Shifts in language and attitude are usually the first signs your son may be ascribing to red pill ideology. Our experts suggest listening for an increase in their use of terms like redpill, alpha, and incel and to pay attention to how they talk about women, dating, and power.

Redpill communities on social media attract young men looking for a sense of community and connection

Again, they know the problem. They just don't care about ugly men.
