Donald Trump Jr. penned an op-ed for The Hill complaining that "Big Tech" companies are"censoring" conservatives, claiming algorithms penalized the right-wing terms"SJW" and"Red Pill" among others.
"Red Pill" and the concept of one being"red pilled" is rooted in the legendary 1999 science fiction film The Matrix, in which the main character can return to blissful ignorance with a blue pill or opt for truth and knowledge via the red pill. But the concept was co-opted by men's rights groups and other far-right wing online cults. Male gender inequality and rape threats from the rabid"red pill" groups caused Reddit to ban wide swaths of the community.
Other conservative figures including Turning Point USA Communications Director Candace Owens have embraced the term to simply imply enlightenment despite the hard realities right-wing persons believe they embody. Owens's popular YouTube channel was entitled"Red Black Pill."
