Reason: protest -> resistance

To indulge the illusion that income tax is justifiable and necessary, and to submit to a mainstream white collar job that automatically withholds income tax from direct deposits, is much cushier than accepting the truth that political coercion of labor such as income tax is unnecessary, immoral, and impractical; and taking action such as a tax protest.

I found this part especially interesting:

Avoid Responsibility: The blue pill represents an avoidance of the responsibility that comes with knowledge. To see the world as it truly is requires action, it demands a response. Those who choose the blue pill are often unwilling to take on this responsibility, preferring instead to remain passive observers of life.”

According to this definition, to be fully redpilled one must take action. How many people who think themselves redpilled pretty much live the same as blue pillers, reinforcing the establishment and enabling corruption with little resistance? The only sane justification is if the redpilled-yet-conforming person is raising multiple future freedom fighters or is working towards doing so.
