Blue pill, black pill, red pill, green pill, white pill, purple pill, we have so many damn pills to reference different ideologies and ways of seeing the world it gets a bit ridiculous. There is truth and there is lies. To put it in pill terms there is the red pill and there is the blue pill, meaning harsh truth or comforting lies. Now someone can be “red pilled” in one part of their life but completely “blue pilled” in another. This doesn’t make them some other flavor of pill just understanding in one area and blind in another.
We don’t have Neo’s (from the Matrix movie, which this all stemmed from) red pill in real life. We don’t have a book, ideology, or anything that gives you all the truth all at once. Our red and blue pills are generally drip fed to us throughout life. Most peoples exposure to alternatives to the “official narrative” come in forms of things like the “Manosphere”, a reaction to feminism (sometimes healthy sometimes unhealthy reaction) or “Conspriacy theories” (terms invented by CIA to discredit anything that questions the official narrative).
From there we expand and we learn and the scales begin to fall off our eyes in various capacities. Granted there are often new scales that can be put on our eyes that can be just as damaging as the old but some lies and truths are revealed to us. This is a good and needed process. Many people, especially Western ones, have lived in a little bubble that has no correlation to the real world and could believe whatever nonsense they wanted. However that bubble is breaking and with it many things are changing. Here’s why that matters to you.
The First Step Of Red Pilling
Generally we all have one area that we start off getting “red pilled” in, that is having the comforting lies torn away and the harsh truth revealed to us. Maybe it was with dating and mating. Maybe it was with political systems. Maybe it was with what is actually healthy and what is not. Or maybe it was something else entirely. One of the big issues with this is when people get red pilled in one area but then never apply that same mode of thinking to other areas as well. Or they interpret everything through the one lens.
What needs to be done is searching for truth in all facets of life. Dating and mating, making money, masculinity, religion, politics, history, and more. The internet has made it so you can search for all of these things and find them. Sure you’ll have to sort through plenty of crazies and nonsense to get what you’re looking and you’ll never do anything perfectly but the search for truth can’t stop with one single area. For example you know that girls prefer strong men and not weak, wimpy, easy to control ones. That’s great and your relationships with women will be better for it.
But why were men told the opposite for so long? Who wanted them wimpy and easy to control and why? And what about everything that’s going on right now? You’re red pilled on relationships but are you still ignorant of everything going on around you. Your country, your nation, and your world could be changing right outside your door, critical things happening, and you’ll be wondering about something you already understand.
Have To Take It To Higher Levels
You can’t just stop with your search for truth and understand or limit it to one area. Humans don’t stand still they either stagnate or grow and you have to keep moving forward and progressing to get anywhere good. The same holds true with the search for truth. So you’ve discovered the truth about relationships and understand that the official narrative problably isn’t something you can trust. But go deeper and think more, what else is there.
Look for connections, recognize patterns. History has much to teach you, not so much the official sanitized or politically correct narrative but true history. Humanity repeats itself over and over and over again, often failing to learn the lessons of what came before. We live in an aged undreamed off, an age where we have access to more information and knowledge than any that came before. Granted a good portion of that information is drivel, purposely misleading, or nonsense but still there is more nuggets of gold out there to be found than ever before.
It’d be foolish to not take advantage and to not expand your mind and in doing so your soul. To learn and see the truth in all that you can. Your government, teachers, preachers, news, media, movies, publishing houses, and much more has been lying to you. To live the best life possible, and to truly be free, you have to discover and find the truth. But that is a journey that is long and hard and takes effort. But it is worth it in the end. Keep searching and keep “red pilling” yourself in every way you can think of.
There is no use opening one eye only to keep the other blind, make connections, find patterns, and seek the truth.
