Is it really normal to take the blue pill?

The red pill (discovering the truth) burns like acid, the blue pill (illusion) is softer and with it you believe whatever you want to believe but you'll never know the truth. I took the blue pill, I want fantasy in my life, like Buddhism. Nietzsche said "without illusion there would be no meaning in life". I root for the meaning. I want to live in a bubble (metaphorically) and feel safe, I want the bullshit, but also the truth. I want to be living in a dream (so far it's going great, I have better relationships with the workers of the facility I live in, and no one seems to be hurting me). But I don't want to live in such a fantasy as to be a fake person, not taking action, just contemplated and mistaking it for doing those things, I don't want that, a partial truth goes a long way. Is this normal?

      It's explained above. These pills are symbols of truth and untruth. The blue pill is illusion, the red pill is the hard reality. With the blue pill I go down the rabbit hole, and believe lies, it beats reality. And as this is hard to accept, I hate the brutal lies about me, people think the compliments are fake, far from it, as ideal as this is I find ways to gain my honour even if 'Man Of Honour' is a lie. If you want hard reality you're treading on dangerous ground. This isn't the Middle Ages where eccentrics, witches and heretics get burned, so there's no unpleasant reality, just the fantasy of optimism.

    some (like myself) feel and unstopabble urge to know the truth. With all that is happening today and that had happen in the past, the only way to truly find peace (for me) its in religion.
    If you want to live in a no-worries bubble, thats ok for you.
    (just for the love of God dont go into political opinions. "oh trump that" or support and social movement and stuff. Just stay completely off of it).

    i cant say if taking the blue pill is normal or not, but i can understand your will of staying off this mess.

    The thing about the truth is that once you hear it, it resonates deeper than anything else. Once you figure out that the Easter Bunny isn't real, doesn't take long to start asking questions about the Tooth Fairy and old Saint Nick.

    Except this time, the bunny is another fake school shooting and santa is a drone dressed up as a Boeing 767.

      I'm not against truth, but the blue pill is bullshit. But when I'm in a medical facility or any medical building I want the truth and not the bullshit the workers drown me in. There's too much bullshit, 1. I'm not crazy, I just have a strange mind, 2. I need medicine to fix it, and 3. treating genius like an illness is the great bullshit, what's unsound about using your brain? To me this mind is very right!

        The blue pills are great, the 30mg oxycodones that is.
