Writers (novelists, tv/film producers etc) claim they know all about human nature, and entire books have been written about how to write deep and believable characters. And yet, how can the realities of the blackpill coexist with the shit they tell us? I'm currently reading some books about character development and how to depict emotion, because I myself am taking a jab at writing a book, and I've already seen a bunch of claims/suggestions about how people behave that sounds like utter bluepill bullshit.
These books talk about human beings as if they are extremely deep, complex etc but is this even true? Is character development in fiction actually just a bullshit pseudoscience? Are human beings even remotely as complicated as they are being made out to be by character writers? We are told that these books show can teach us how to make realistic feeling characters, and yet characters in fiction almost never behave as they do in real life, because that would mean blackpilling the masses (or even just the actual authors themselves, who are probably also bluepilled).
