bluepill

(verb): To tell someone a dishonest pleasantry instead of the actual truth. Refers to the blue pill in the movie "The Matrix".

Bluepilling someone can have one of two purposes: 1) an evil purpose, such as lulling them into complacency in order to exploit them more effectively, or 2) a good purpose, such as mercifully shielding them from a horrible truth that they actually are powerless to avoid or prevent, in which case a pleasant delusion is actually the more humane option.

I've had so much awful news that I can't stand anymore. So just bluepill me for awhile, okay?

Blue Pill

Taking the easy way out, choosing to ignore the harsh reality and live in blissful ignorance.

"You take the blue pill -- the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe." Morpheus, The Matrix

Blue Pill Envy

Inspired by Cypher in the Matrix. The notion that it may have been better had you never woken up to inner truths about the world and continued watching MTV, getting your nails done and working like a dog to provide money for world leaders to gamble with. It is envy of the brainwashed and uninformed lifestyle.

Andy is depressed and tired after researching the truth behind 9/11, big pharma and AGW theory. He wishes he was a regular guy who bangs chicks, works and pays taxes without asking questions like his friend Johnny. He has blue pill envy.

blue pill overdose

"Blue pill overdose" describes a scenario where a person is doxastically closed (unwilling to change their beliefs) to the point of rejecting the concept of logic or reason. Additionally to the assertion that the claim is true, the person asserts that their claim is exempt from any form of inspection; i.e. that asking questions about it is nonsensical.

This usually coincides with incoherent sentence- or argument-structure, which can border on seeming like brain damage and creates the association to an overdose. (E.g. grammar and logic mistakes and heavy use of meaningless deepities in place of arguments)
The "blue pill" is a reference to The Matrix movies, where the choice between the blue and the red pill is one between blissful ignorance and learning the uncomfortable truth.

Anthony: "How much confidence do you have in this belief, on a scale from 1 to 10?"
Bob: "11 out of 10 confidence. Infinity out of 10 confidence."
Anthony: "How do you know that this belief is true?"
Bob: "just believe... don't think... don't test... be like a child... false beliefs are also true.. just let it go... don't think about it... just believe... you can't make sense of it..."

Charlie (to Dan): "Seems to me like Bob chose the blue pill..."
Dan: "I'd say he didn't stop at one. He is suffering from blue pill overdose..."
Charlie: "Poor dude..."
