3. White Noise by Don DeLillo: Dylar
What could be better than a drug that can eliminate fear? That’s exactly what dylar does for the user in White Noise.
Unfortunately, fearlessness like that might end up producing the possibility of “ego death”, where identity disappears and the trip can turn bad, leading to violence or self-harm as seen with an LSD or PCP trip.
The Matrix Red/Blue pills aren’t drugs. Tired of reading that.
Blue is placebo and Red is the tracking device. Waking you up from battery sleep, and helping the “real” humans find you in the human energy harvesting complex. There’s no drug effect.
