You Must Choose Between the Red Pill or the Blue Pill…
Red — the Matrix; Blue — Universal Basic Income
Ok. So, I had Bing AI Image Generator make this image for me. Yikes!! There’s too many fingers on the hands, and the thumbs are on the wrong side of each hand. OMG!!
Anyway, put that aside — it does show a blue pill in one hand and a red pill in the other. After 8 images, I finally got it to do this much. The pills are glowing, which is a nice touch.
So, if you take the red pill, you go into the matrix. You’re going to be a somebody, but you won’t remember you made this choice. Your body will be placed into a pod where the machines draw the energy off of your body for the duration of your life.
But, if you take the blue pill, you don’t go into the matrix. You get to live a full life with a Universal Basic Income — an income automatically provided by the machines. They get their power source from the humans that are in the pods, and you know this. The robots run the entire economy, which generates all the income to supply the people who took the blue pill. You don’t have to do anything for this income — it’s automatically provided. You can have a social life with the other blue-pillers as they are called. The clubs and social scenes have Blue Pillars to symbolize the blue pillers. My my, aren’t they clever.
What do you choose — Red or Blue?
Thanks for reading me.
