Someone who thinks of themselves as "woke", the phrase originating from the 1999 movie "The Matrix". People who use this term to describe themselves think that being a "red pill" is being someone who is fighting "the system" in a war, thinking that they're warriors of Truth. People who use this term to describe others use it derogatorily, because in the Matrix, the Oracle states that she created the red pill and the "real world" because certain people were fundamentally unable to get along with system. So, she created the red pill in order to give something to do to the people who simply don't want to get along with others. Being a red pill doesn't mean fighting for truth, being a red pill simply means being the kind of person who needs to fight others in order to feel fulfilled. The choice was not truth over lies, the choice was simply whether or not you "feel a need", as Morpheus effectively put it, to fight.
We redpills are fighting to save you bluepills from the system. - redpill These redpills are fighting simply because they enjoy it. - "bluepill" (normal person)
A term used by conservative internet users to favourably describe their own sociopolitical viewpoints; at its most basic level, it means to have been made aware of something obscure or forbidden. It originates from 1999 film “The Matrix,” ironically written and directed by two transgender women, in a scene where the protagonist is offered a choice between a literal blue pill to “wake up…and believe whatever he wants to believe” and a red pill to “stay in Wonderland, …be shown deep the rabbit hole goes,” and join a rebellion against the simulated reality he lives in. The red pill itself is believed to have been been modeled after red Premarin-brand tablets, popular as estrogen-boosting medication for transgender women in the 1990s. Has exactly the same denotation and exactly the opposite connotation as “woke.”
