Not even sure what the term 'kool-aid' means, have only caught it once or twice.
Mike Danton famously said he wouldn't be drinking Lou Lamourillo's Kool-Aid a few years ago.

It references the Jonestown (Johnstown) Massacre of some years ago in Guyana, late 1970's/ early 1980's, I believe, where about 900 people committed mass suicide via Kool-Aid rather than have their cult come under scrutiny. This after a US Senator and a few others had been murdered in a hail of machine gun fire as they set down on a landing strip.

Something like that.
