red pill

The red pill and its opposite, the blue pill, are a popular cultural meme, a metaphor representing the choice between: Red Pill: A life of harsh knowledge, desperate freedom, and the brutal truths of reality. Blue Pill: A life of luxurious security, tranquil happiness, and the blissful ignorance of illusion. It probably originates from the movie "Matrix".
The Matrix's red pill of truth has long been a symbol for the online misogynists of the men's-rights movement.

Taking the Red Pill

Getting someone high for the first time who had previously been skeptical or fearful of weed. If you watch the film "The Matrix", you'll see that Morpheus' speech to Neo about taking the Red Pill can apply almost perfectly to that situation.
Chris: Man, Ashley is so anti-weed. Gives me dirty looks if I even try and talk about it.

Sean: Not anymore dude. I smoked her out last night.

Chris: For real? Damn you had her taking the red pill!

Morpheus: "This is your last chance. After this there is no turning back. You take the blue pill, the story ends, you wake up and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland, and I show you just how deep the rabbit hole goes."

Red Pill

A movement for pathetic men to feel special about themselves. The idea itself comes from the matrix, where in the film taking the red pill means that you see the reality of life no matter how painful it is. In recent years a lot of internet personas (such as professional douchebag Andrew Tate) have used this philosophy as a cash cow to take advantage of the waves of fatherless virgins that make up the fanbase of red pill preachers. They often speak to their fanbase by claiming that by following their teachings, they will gain the successes they desire. The irony is that there's a rather obvious disconnect between the preachers and the followers of the red pill philosophy, to the point where it becomes painfully obvious to those not indoctrinated that it's a load of bologna used by those who preach this ideology in order to sell bogus online courses to their fans. Most often these courses will supposedly detail how to get money or get women to like you. However, if these losers actually wanted these things they'd be thinking for themselves (another irony, since red pill also encourages free thought) and wouldn't need advice from these scumbags. TLDR a movement for losers adopted by scammers to take advantage of said losers
"Bro Malcolm is such a loser. I hear he's one of those incels who watches that Andrew Tate guy."

Taking the Red Pill

"Hey bro, I've been taking the red pill lately, and I think I finally understand everything. Care to immerse yourself in my right wing literature?."
