But the choice between the blue and the red pill, is not really a choice between illusion and reality. Of course, Matrix is a machine for fictions. But these are fictions which already structure our reality. If you take away from our reality the symbolic fictions which regulate it, you lose reality itself. I want a THIRD pill! zizek-preference

The red pill and the blue pill are in a dialectical relationship, what we need is a synthesis pill that can resolve the contradiction.

I took the Red-Green pill. Now women don't find me handsome, but they at least find me handy

I believe Eminem and D12 theorized about the synthesis of the blue pill and the red pill CW: cringe-ass edgelord shit honestly don't bother watching

i feel like this is one of the most iconic beats of all time, which is then topped with the most distilled cringe ever produced

D12 is truly a land of contrasts

Honestly it is a very good beat, which is a bit of an outlier for Eminem tracks
