In real life, "taking the Red Pill" results in a situation like "They Live": You put on the glasses, you see the messages for what they really are. Thus I have not picked up a newspaper in decades. You watch our commentators, pundits and politicians on television and the stench of raw sewage and excrement literally wafts off the screen; the only way you can stop it is to shut the television off as fast as you can.
