What does this mean, and how does one take it? Googling it comes up with misogny and a documentary of the same name.

Oh sorry, yes it the matrix reference.

Right, but like besides a reference, is there something you'd suggest as an action? (which represents taking the redpill)

[hatware]

The "Red-pill" in the Matrix signifies an action which one cannot go back on. It is an action which requires the user to shatter their built-up version of reality forever (signified by the the blue-pills they have been taking all along).

We need more people to challenge their view of reality, and accept that things may not be as happy and comfortable as we want them to be for the security of our futures and our children's futures.

And no, I don't mean "global warming is destroying the ability for life to live" wise, I mean in terms of how much our politicians and public servants are truly serving us at this point. Voting for lifelong politicians more or less got us here, the red pill is accepting that these people may have always had more sinister plans in mind than we thought.

Ok, so this is what I was after in my question. Thank you.

So "Take the redpill" is (in this case) a statement about taking a different path with politics (politicians) .

Couldn't have described it better. Well put @hatware
