Merciful ‘Evans... Brilliant analysis of the rapier on which each of us is impaled. We have the choice to slash up our hands on the erect blade or slide down to the hilt in hope of strangling the bastard holding it.
I'm vague on it myself. Just coincidently had seen the term pop up thanks to the YouTube algorithm only yesterday. Seems that some who had been blackpilled are turning towards (back towards?) Christianity as a system of order/recovery from the nihilism of blackpilling. Saw a kind of trajectory sketched out (this was one example: https://www.premierchristianity.com/Blog/I-was-an-atheist-who-took-the-red-pill.-Then-I-took-the-God-pill.-Now-I-m-a-Christian) and then, there were also links being made to Jordan Peterson's (quite confused?) invocation of "logos" and a lot of reactionary stuff
I think it makes sense in a coming-full-circle kind of way. The “bare life” is an invitation to limit-experience, among which conversion should certainly figure. And then there’s the apophatic element to blackpilling, which could easily range (and shift) from a new-atheistic voidGod to a God-in-gaps for the new unknowability.

Great stuff, thanks Adam!
this is good analysis. what is termed 'postleft' is a variety of voices.
Any thoughts on the "god pill" as the follow up to being blackpilled?
Tell me more, Tobias. I am not familiar with the term.
