==Etymology== | |||
The phrase "bluepill" comes from the 1999 film The Matrix. In the film, the bluepill describes plugged in members of the Matrix, people who are unaware that they live in a computer simulated world. The antonym to bluepilled people are those who live on the hovership called Nebuchadnezzar, which is captained by Morpheus, a character played by Laurence Fishburne, who have instead taken the redpill. These people are no longer plugged in, and as such can see what the real world looks like rather than the "world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth ... that you are a slave Neo. Like everyone else you were born into bondage. Into a prison that you cannot taste or see or touch. A prison for your mind." (-Morpheus quote) | |||
Since those on the Nebuchadnezzar or other freed people in Zion (i.e. the redpilled) constitute a small minority of the total human population, being bluepilled is typically associated with majority or popular, yet myopic viewpoints. | |||
