  I hate how they have taken that redpill term to make it all uncool instead of how cool it used to be in the Matrix.

    “Red pill” is a matrix reference (take blue pill and go back to your normal life or take the red pill and “see how deep the rabbit hole goes.”) high jacked by sexist dudes who see “taking the red pill” as waking up to (perceived) social injustice against men. They show up in threads claiming women routinely lie about being assaulted and hide behind male victims (which exist and need to be heard) as they deny that women can be victims. They get made when a woman is in Star Wars. They were the ones constantly saying “me too has gone too far.”
