Escapism is the 'blackpill' acceptance of defeat in the real world and trying to live within the system with minimal participation effort.
Escapism replaces 'mainstream culture participation' so i don't have to be socially adept and present in society, being a part of social process and part of a community. Its kind of 'alternative social circles' for introverts and INT(J|P)s where you're not bothered by mainstream expectations and social roles.
Like this board is a form of electronic escapism, for example: its essentially a virtual version of a library where people come and talk about stuff they read or think about, without involving real-world issues they have.
