Alluding to the symbol of the “red pill” from the film The Matrix, r/TheRedPill promotes misogyny, hegemonic masculinity, and traditional gender roles. The Southern Poverty Law Center describes it as one of several male supremacist subreddits featuring xenophobic discourse. It has been associated with several right-wing movements and the alt-right because of its attacks on feminism and mockery of rape.

    I was worried when I saw the title of this community, but then I saw it was pictures of actual red pills and my blood pressure is low now.
