And now on YouTube the Red Pill symbolizes accepting misogyny as the backbone for society.
Conservatives can truly spin everything for the worst.
Pretty sure it means accepting that you’re trans
And the blue pill symbolizes continuing to pretend to be someone else
Like the whole movie is a trans allegory, especially considering the creators.
One of the creators said “that’s not the original intention, but sure, you could read it that way too” in some interview
I can certainly see that in regards to the movie. I think I read somewhere too that the character “Switch” would switch genders from the real world into the Matrix. I think it would have been real cool if it had made it to the movie.
I feel so bad for Laurence Fishburne. This pic does him dirty. It’s got him looking like the cenobite Butterball
That’s what not being a human battery does to you
!This propaganda was bought to you by the machines!<
He’s singing.
And singing opera, no less! Thank you for sharing. That makes the picture make way more sense
Kudos to whoever found the one frame out of a hundred thousand where Fishburne isn’t looking like a total badass.
This just made me realise the matrix is also an allegory of capitalism
…as well as for whether you’d choose to know harsh realities over comforting dreams. Capitalism has a few choices and perspectives in this regard.
and also an allegory for transitioning
edit: there’s a reason why the wachowski brothers are no longer brothers
Wow, I really did not know about that. From your comment I assumed one transitioned, but they both did!
STEAKS ARE FAKE
REAL STEAK DOESN’T EXIST
LEARN KUNG FUUUUUUUUU
They aren’t fake, they’re just rare
I mean it’s a funny meme, but philosophers have been debating about which of these is the better option for millenia. It isn’t like the general consensus is that living in that living in the Matrix was preferable
They also specifically addressed this in the first movie with that guy that turned on them and unplugged people.
Edit: “that guy” being Cypher, just checked the name
Steak man
that living in that living in the Matrix
Deja vu
Haha typo. I meant to say it isn’t the general consensus that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that living in that livi
For me, I don’t take issue with living in the matrix or even being forced to.
It’s that the computers could have made it a utopia where everyone has everything they need or want and just live life or hell even giving interfaces so that people could just build whatever out of thin air
But the computers just… replicated the real world 90’s…and all the suffering and pain and capitalism along with it…
I think the old guy in the second movie said that they did make it a utopia but humans couldn’t deal with living in a perfect wonderland. They fixed it by making it kinda a boring day to day life.
They did try that
I don’t know why but him saying Neo’s name a second time has me dyin
It reminds me of Charlie the Unicorn which has a similar cadence
My guess is that it’s because it’s completely unnecessary and thus instantly makes the whole text 50% more unhinged
I thought he didn’t really have a social life.
He had enough of one to go clubbing with the mescaline guy. Let’s be honest: a truly anti-social geek would never even get the invite.
He maybe a loner but he isn’t autistic so people still treat him like a fellow human being.
Cypher was right. Ignorance is bliss.
He didn’t have to kill three people though.
And knowledge is power.
Yeah I never understood that part. I’d have deep throated that blue pill so fast.
Neo didn’t know all that. I’m pretty sure that was Cypher’s story. Cypher didn’t know what the red pill would do either, and just wants to take the blue pill to get back to “a more preferential life,” for him.
Kinda ironic that the conservative of the film wants the blue pill.

Yea, should probably look into a mirror and practice it a few times before I try it again
Porridge is delicious.
10/10
I like it when he puts on his little hat to keep his head warm.
What happens if you take both the red pill and the blue pill at the same time?
Diareah
