Musk Tweets 'Take The RED Pill' And Matrix Creator Loses Their Sh_t. What Is Wrong With People?

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk was on Twitter Sunday, drawing an F-bomb rebuke from the creator of a movie he referenced.

“Take the red pill,” tweeted Musk, along with an emoji of a red rose. The phrase is associated with the 1999 movie “The Matrix,” in which Keanu Reeves‘ character Neo learns that the life he thought he had been living was actually a computer simulation.



Lilly Wachowski, one-half of the Wachowski sibling duo who wrote and directed “The Matrix” and its sequels, was not amused to see her film referenced by Musk and Trump.

“F_ck both of you,” tweeted Wachowski, and later added another tweet encouraging people to donate to Brave Space Alliance, an LGBTQ social service organization. Both Wachowskis came out as transgender women within the past decade.


Please tell us WHY the director would even CARE what Musk tweeted? What is wrong with people?

The Right has strangely adopted this quote from the Matrix as part of their mantra recently. Red Pill - The Truth , Blue Pill things stay as they are. At least as far as the movie goes. Politically the colours just happen to fit the US parties. And I guess the creators of the Matrix didn't like having it twisted.

Nothing strange about it at all.

The red pill means that you wake up to the shit the liars (in this case the Alt-Left fascist-socialists) are promulgating.

The creators of The Matrix can go to hell.

You aren't among the bright ones, are you?

#MD- Really? Has Trump not lied to the American people thousands of times since taking office? Has the entire Republican party not turned a blind eye? Voters like you as well? You don't want to hear facts, truth or be faced with the failure of this administration. A vote is coming in November and middle America will be heard.

You're Canadian. Why would I care about the opinion of a foreigner?

I'll be glad when Twitters 15 minutes are over.

And by the way who really cares what any of the people think.
