    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

      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.
