When you walk around in this city, you find bums on almost every street corner, citizens going about their business, creepy people hanging out in alleys, and this strange "redpill" culture that has been catching on with youth everywhere. I've talked with these guys, they think they know how this world works. They got the inside scoop on how business, culture, entertainment, industry, and yes... even politics. So since they know everything, I decided to give one of them an interview. Usually they aren't too willing to give any interviews, but one of my contacts found one. He asked to be anonymous and be interviewed in a semi secluded restaurant with plenty of windows. It's funny, most of them are all constantly looking over their shoulders like someone is out to get them. Who, I don't know, and maybe they don't know either. But, I found the perfect spot at Peg's Diner in Southard district. Here's what one had to say. He says he's not too sure of himself like the others are, but he can peer just a little bit farther into the future than most. Improbable you think? Just read.So anyway, I'll tell you a little bit about myself and my... crew, I guess you'd call it. Usually we don't do interviews, it's just something that our culture considers taboo. But maybe if we could learn to live together we could sort out our differences and see that maybe we aren't so different at all. Like take for example, that guy emptying that trashcan outside. My work is just like his. I take out the trash. Not in a literal sense, but there are big ticket items that need to be disposed of all the time in this city. You mean like cars and large appliances? Uhh... yeah. Something like that. I'm not going to go into specifics, but I will let you know that it is legal. I actually work with the government. Oh you do? What kind of work do you do for them? Well I just told you the main thing I do, but on side jobs I usually do some investigative reporting and some recruitment for other potentials in the field. So how does a "redpill" such as yourself get a job with the government? I've heard many in the government were trying to suppress your culture more than use it. Well, we got these powers you see. It's hard to explain really because there's no explanation that I can give you that will make you believe I am telling the truth. Unless... Unless what? Unless you can believe that I can see into the future just a little. Not a whole lot, but a little. That should help you understand. Ok. I'm listening. What can you show me? I'll tell you when the time is right. And It's not right, right now. Ok then.. moving on. In the past couple of weeks there were reports of a major celebration in your culture about some sort of evil that was removed from the world. Did it have anything to do with the fly plague? Actually yes. How did you know that? Well the only "evil" that was affecting our city around the same time was the infestation of flies. But if you are saying yes to that, I'm guess your culture had something to do with the pesticide as well? Right again. We have worked with the government many times in the past before as well. It's just recently that our services have become known to the masses. Such as the terrorist Morpheus? I heard he was from your culture though. He was, but he turned on us by attacking all of you. He was a great man until he made several mistakes. May I ask you about your savior? The one you call Neo? Has he returned? I'm afraid that is one area I cannot discuss with you. Unfortunately, even I cannot divulge information such as that. And with that, I must go... I will now show you that I can see into the future. But just a little. I'm all eyes and ears.That's when my guest got up, turned around and started towards the door just as two men came busting through the back door of the restaurant. There was a lot of shooting and my friend ducked out the door just as the bullets whizzed by his head. He seemed so calm and focused. He even had time to put on his shades and give me a nice friendly wave before he took off running with the two men in hot pursuit chasing him. I'm not sure how he knew he would have company at that very second. But he definitely impressed upon me the usefulness of the redpill culture. No wonder the government has been recruiting them into their ranks. Can you imagine CIA operatives running around with advanced telekinetic abilities? Or is that their plan already? Conspiracies theorists can theorize all they want about how the government created the "redpill" to create super soldiers. But the fact still remains that it kills more than it helps. If I had time to ask him one more question it would've been on the success-to-failure ratio of the redpill. I doubt the government is practicing dangerous experiments on our youth just to spend millions of dollars trying to eliminate the drug. But, even if they did that, I'm sure the bright individuals of their culture would think of something else to ingest into their systems. Like a green, purple or blue pill. Speaking of bluepills... It's 12am... and I got work tomorrow. I love Slumberil.
