I’ll take mine medium rare, please
*whip cracking sounds*
now boi you ain't getting any of that
>comfortable
it's not comfortable though. I think you're constantly depressed or having anxiety or some shit.
I think that's what the Wachowskis intended anyway, but since they have no contact with normal people they don't know how to portray that on screen.
They think the office job or being a trad wife is the peak of human misery. But any normal person will look at that and think, "I could work with that"
idk, the people at the night club looked like they were having a pretty good time. plus they’re forever in 1999, which really was the peak of human civilization
true
I just think the revolt against the matrix makes a lot more sense if it's a system that actively makes you miserable. sure you have steak, but you'll never enjoy it because you're "le depressed".
and as I said before, I think the Wachowskis have a blind spot so they don't know how to properly portray that.
>plus they’re forever in 1999, which really was the peak of human civilization
I was 19 in 1999 and would slaughter whole nations of infants just to go back again
Yes, you truly are the only person alive, in history, who would do anything if the reward was to be 19 again.
I would happily spend the rest of my life hooked up to a simulation of 1999
You have more rights in the Matrix’s real world in the same way you have more rights in Detroit or Sao Paolo.
You have less rights in the Matrix simulation in the same way that you have less rights in Singapore or Qatar.
Most people would choose the latter, let’s be real.
>You have more rights in the Matrix’s real world in the same way you have more rights in Detroit or Sao Paolo.
yeah maybe, that would make sense
I'm arguing that the movie doesn't sufficiently show that living in the Matrix is shitty.
the movie just makes it seem like our world, with all its potential for happiness and suffering. whereas the "real world" seems only like shit.
those are all third world level regions. you're brown.
Singapore and Qatar are better than your American shit hole.
Then stop moving here en masse brownoid. Go to Singapore.
Fix your dumb, shithole nog-worshipping country before lecturing others on quality of life and safety, amerigoy
Go star in a drone video and get the frick off of my internet, subhuman.
It absolutely is comfortable, because the 90's were comfortable(for most people, in the developed world). The story is that the machines tried to make a *genuine paradise* but that cynicism is too ingrained in humans and people instinctually rejected the simulation on a subconscious level, so they dialled it back until they could give us the least amount of misery we'd accept, which was a life of sufficiency with some luxury and enough "first world problems" that we could satisfy our need to feel victimised.
Look, I get it, Muh Troons Baaaad, but try and construct your criticisms honestly so you don't look like a bitter subnormal moron.
the story is the paradise model would've worked with the choice patch. that the 90s was the "hell" matrix.
you realize that's just smith's theory, right? and he's an aberration?
>so they dialled it back until they could give us the least amount of misery we'd accept
This is your assumption, and contradicts what Agent Smith says the Morpheus.
I don't think the Wachowskis ever meant for the Matrix to be seen as an accurate representation of the real world. It's meant to be a place of misery.
>medium rare
that explains a lot
Which kind of wrong are you pretending to be?
Sad thing is only people who have seen/went through shit that can truly appreciate the former. To a sheltered child, it's the saddest thing I mean look at our heroes like cobain
>a destitute, raggedy existence in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, constantly pursued by robot squids
Cypher chose to live on a ship even though he hated it. Living at zion is a lot comfier since machines take care of all the work. You probably spend all day in simulations playing real life halo or fricking the hottest girls you can imagine.
when not in your own personal fantasy world you are in caves having sweaty orgies. Tell me your current life is better than that.
i hate this gays faces so much
forgot the pic
~~*mouse*~~
>wanna buy some death sticks?
he was an autist virgin incel who unplugged to sexo trinity
I'd take the slops.
Why couldn't he just use the ship's computer to simulate eating whatever he wanted, again?
Because it wouldn't feed them, they'd still need to eat the slop not to starve to death.
yeah so? also eat the slop.
That's what cypher literally did. Anything else?
>he missed the part where cypher wasn't an actual redpill
Kid, this only happened in your head. Pay attention to the shit you watch and stop fricking around with your tard-wrangler phone.
Anon. its canon the oracle fed a bunch of losers to morpheus.
In your head, sonny. Remember, these things are "canon" in your stupid idiot brain.
Anon. The One was the bald kid.
We, the audience, were the One.
what do you mean? I'm just saying you can eat the slop for nutrition and the steak for pleasure
They probably have more important things to do with their simulation chairs and the energy they use, but yes, they can probably do that.
mouse tells neo he can set him up with the girl in the red dress. This implies they use the simulation for pleasure routinely. Zion sets up computers just so they can be air traffic controllers. They probably have personal little matrix simulators in their own apartments.
>They probably have personal little matrix simulators in their own apartments.
this is a fun idea. everyone escapes the matrix, only to spend all their free time back in their own personal matrix.
this could be the grounds for a religious struggle. could make a good movie.
>They probably have more important things to do with their simulation chairs and the energy they use
I was gonna say the same thing.
I got the impression that Cypher was in the simulation secretly. Of course he wants to hide his meeting, but also the chairs are probably meant only for important business and such.
Well, unless you want a date with the woman in the red dress, nudge nudge, eh?
it's because the Wachowskis don't know what suffering is. They live in the insulated Hollywood bubble, so they think le office job is the peak of human misery. So being free and eating slop is better than being in the Matrix with steak.
>know what suffering is.
Aren't these the penis torture guys?
you mean trans? yeah I think they've abused their penis.
but we're talking about mental anguish here, not physical pain.
No, back when they were proto trannies just starting out they frequented a famous dominatrix who would literally torture their penises
There was an article in rolling stone about it in the early 2000s that they tried to scrub from the net
One of them married her.
https://grahamlinehan.substack.com/p/from-the-memory-hole-rolling-stones
then you don't understand human nature at all
Americans can't imagine living for anything other than food.
Though I'd still take the blue pill if I saw Zion was full of Black folk.
same
i am american though and i fricking love food. in fact i'm thinking about my next meal right now.
Both are vegan ultimately so it doesn't matter except the top one promoted literal slavery. Black people should be unplugged first for this reason.
Why don't they just intravenously feed people while they're plugged in? You could enjoy a masterclass gourmet meal whilst having slop pumped into you and you wouldn't even notice.
Reminded me of that scene in Brazil.
Go back to l*ddit with your gay ass formatting
Breath in. Breath out. Slowly count to ten. Heres a meme to help you relax.
What's the n word? Sorry I'm not American.
sNeed
Zion had wheat. So they could eat bread and drink alcohol. You probably don't have to eat much of the snot slop if you lived in zion.
Yep, doesn't make much sense why they'd have to physically eat that or endure too much unpleasant things. Mouse already says they can have sex with programs they make, no reason they can't spend most of their day in a pleasant reality simulation they created while their own machines take care of their real bodies. The gate controllers in Zion are essentially doing just that when the ship returns. They're controlling everything from inside a nice, clean simulation.
>
I agree
>time to get replugged if you know what I mean Neo
its amazing how this movie is literally incomprehensible to brown people.
> can do the most mind-blowing hardcore drugs and it'll have no physiological effect.
You know I bet an awful lot of drug addicts would be perfectly fine with being unplugged once they found out about the virtual reality crack dens.
He was clearly chasing that trinity poon, it's not fricking rocket science.
> dude your penis is misleading you.
> Come live in the real world where we can create 100% interactive reverse gangbang scenes with waifus of your choice.
No really Morpheus was kind of a moron.
I'd take congee over steak any day, and so would anyone with a sophisticated palate.
>Yes I'll take the fish cum please
I want bugs off my board.
You're a dross c**t.
cypher chose to live on a ship for some fricking reason. In zion they have wheat, so you can at least eat some bread. Plus you could always plug into your personal little matrix and play out any fantasy you wish.
Eating a bunch of bread and fricking Ana De Armas is a red pill.
Technically, the steak is dead people slop coded to taste like steak.
>OMG I LOVE THIS SHADOW ON THE WALL STEAK SO MUUUUCH THANK YOU DEMIURGE!!!!
>tfw morpheus' pills are canonically sugarpills
That guy was a fraud. This was the true dichotomy.
go away lindelof
Is that Creed from The Office? Don't take any of his pills.
>I will be willing goycattle and betray my race if you give me good food, master!
>my race
>a bunch of Black folk in a cave
sup, Jamal. You "betray" your race everyday with the violence and general niggetry
Black folk in a cave, yokels in a trailer. Same difference.
Paints a pretty grim picture of what most people are like then, in my opinion. Its not surprising to me though. Most people are unprincipled hedonists not much different than a drug addict, the only difference is in appearance and to some extent intensity. The idea of them caring about such things as values and morality are necessary illusions to be maintained so as to not appear in violation of social norms.
I lost 50 pounds since the beginning of the year and sometimes I feel like I took the red pill and just want to go back to blissfully eating unhealthy foods.
But I must maintain my focus. Eating like a dog most of the time is a worthy sacrifice if I want to be a fully realized man.
there literally has never been a believable explanation as to how cyper managed to plug in and plug out, all by himself and in secret.
he was on watch, everyone else was asleep, the ship was parked, he coded an automated "operator" script, the machines didn't pursue the ship and he was there on the agents' request.
Lol, as this thread evidences, there are plenty of absolute fricking morons out there who would choose to unplug, because they're dumb enough to believe they'd win and so could construct a narrative of sacrifice for the greater good around their hardships. Think about how many Duck Dynasty-lookin' dipshits there are out there living "off grid" in some shitty holler with their 800 guns waiting for whatever flavour of apocalypse they believe in to "slay The Beast" and free them of the doggone dang dun dirty GUBMINT oppressors. Think about how many dumbasses are out there LARPing as revolutionaries every weekend over at their "compound" down on Billy-Bob's uncle-father's back acre who sincerely believe their glorious shining rebellion would last more than six minutes against the local Sheriff's Department nevermind the US military. There are plenty of people who have the right mixture of batshit crazy and martyr complex to live their whole life in a stinking sweaty cave eating literal slop because they would see life in the Matrix as "slavery" - they don't look at the Resistance as what they are, a handful of abnormal whackjobs with Main Character Syndrome, but rather see themselves as special and unique, able to "see through the lies", above the "sheeple" they will free from their ignorant belief that tangible, everyday freedom from want and pain and fear is more important than abstract conceptual freedom.
Honestly the machines should have just given every single human the choice to get memory-wiped and live in the Matrix or the Zion shithole; 99.99999% of them would still have chosen the Matrix, and the tiny minority who would choose "freedom", robbed of their victim narrative, would remain a backwater squabbling inbred stinkcave forever because all the stable normal people would be enjoying their digital steaks.
You are brown.
>Yo Neo, come get some of this booty!
>Whoa...
Way too much vitriol in the replies. Have some comfy magic:
