To take on water, is to "take the red pill." To embark on the life long journey of philosophy, to learn the secrets of life, of people, and of governments. As you gain knowledge, you gain power, and with this power you can see through peoples ignorance. The diver is the philosopher, the truth seeker. But you don't have it in you to search for the truth, you're too weak to handle it.
