Summary: The Blue Pill for me has always been very hard to define. I think many of us came to the red pill after our "dream girl" gave us some...relationship feedback.
The Blue Pill essentially teaches us that beta behaviors are the correct behaviors with women. While this is occasionally true, only doing beta behaviors will inevitably lead you back here.
Body: Unfortunately no one can be told what the matrix is, you have to see it for yourself... Defining "the matrix" is something I struggle with, even to this day. The simpliest way for me to think about it is the publically shared belief that "Beta's are attractive." After all, it's what you're supposed to do. Every article I read. Every female piece of advice I received. All of this is focused on ensuring that men know how to be good betas.
And women like betas. Like the attention. Like the stuff. Like the ego boost. It's validating. It "should" be how attraction works.
Unfortunately, as we've all learned, the world does not work this way.
I think the difficulty that many men have when swallowing the pill is the understanding that sometimes beta traits are helpful. But, if you were Papa Smurf like me, beta traits were the only ones I had at my disposal.
The idea of "punishing" bad behavior by withdrawing my time and attention, never even occured to me. Boundaries? The whole point is that we're building something together! I support her the same way that she supports me. The dream! Which ends up being just a dream all along.
Women can't even articulate this phenomenon. They can only feel in their body that something is not right. Even if they know that you've done nothing wrong.
In matrix world: Beta = good. Alpha = asshole. Since the world doesn't work like that, I think we can pick our own definitions of each.
Conclusion: In the matrix, beta game for me was the only game in town. The right way.
That's really what the blue pill asks of you. Only give carrots, don't give any sticks. Sticks are "bad." That doesn't work for horses, and it doesn't work for women. Only carrots will make her puke.
