We'll probably need to wheel in some heavy-weight philosophy to get much farther. Personally, I'd like to think that most people would prefer the red pill if given a choice. It should also be mentioned that if religion is replaced with philosophies that emphasize rationality AND compassion, it is a pretty good bet we'd see the end of most inter-cultural strife in the world. Mass social movements aiming toward a just society would be easier if everyone lost the blinders, wouldn't it?

Five dollars says some googling might turn up some sort of research on the red pill vs blue pill question. *google google google*
