It's a very patronising generalisation of society which suggests that most people are just mindless zombies and that only the chosen few see the real truth. It's conspiracy theory porn.

confirmation bias, people’s tendency to process information by looking for, or interpreting, information that is consistent with their existing beliefs. This biased approach to decision making is largely unintentional, and it results in a person ignoring information that is inconsistent with their beliefs. These beliefs can include a person’s expectations in a given situation and their predictions about a particular outcome. People are especially likely to process information to support their own beliefs when an issue is highly important or self-relevant.


Cognitive dissonance is the mental discomfort that results from holding two conflicting beliefs, values, or attitudes. People tend to seek consistency in their attitudes and perceptions, so this conflict causes unpleasant feelings of unease or discomfort.1

The inconsistency between what people believe and how they behave motivates them to engage in actions that will help minimize feelings of discomfort. People attempt to relieve this tension in different ways, such as by rejecting, explaining away, or avoiding new information.

Stockholm syndrome is a coping mechanism to a captive or abusive situation. People develop positive feelings toward their captors or abusers over time. This condition applies to situations including child abuse, coach-athlete abuse, relationship abuse and sex trafficking. Treatment includes psychotherapy (“talk therapy”) and medications if needed.

A rubbish alibi for weirdos who invent a different place to the real word.

The truth about life is that it's an illusion and we are not alone there are forces keeping this illusion alive and they are not flesh and blood but they are power in spiritual realms . But there is way to break this illusion , everyone is tired of living superficial life, Breaking this illusion at a high cost you have to give up the old life or to unplug from the system as you and be born again not in flesh but in the spirit. Once you opened your eyes to the reality life is a battlefield between the light and darkness.... you will never be the same again once you join this warfare it matter of life and dead. Our Leo the saviour of humanity is Jesus.

Very true even without the matrix existing

Meaningless, vacuous gobbledegook.

You know ....I've been recently becoming VERY aware of this feeling at work .

Now don't get me wrong ...I love my work . I know it serves a practical purpose and it's with people and kids ....so I think that is important too.

But ...

...I'm finding more and more often now that it's not about the kids.....it's about the system . It's about the protocols.

And everyone is SO OBSESSED about the protocols and rules, they totally ignore empathy, human observation, initiative, feeling....and care.

People are getting so lost in the details they can't see the bigger picture, or anything right before their eyes ....or even ask "why?".

And if you do ask why ....they don't know ! - they have just been told "you need to do this" .

Sometimes I look at my boss going off at me over something trivial .....and she's all red in the face over it.
And I actually need to put on the "I'm so sorry" face, and pander to her and tell her she's right, before she can actually subside and deflate back into the semblance of a real person .

I feel somewhere in the last year or two, that I've, (for lack of a better word) - sidestepped, or stepped out of their bubble of thinking.

I think of all the stress she has put me under in the past ....all the stress she has held and passed onto me, (and others)....when she never had to.
She [b]doesn't [/b] have to ...
But shes lost in it .

Work has become her life ....it IS her meaning.

Now I would understand that, if she was saving lives , or making the world a better place or some such ....but she's just a cog in a wheel.

She works, so she can take holidays to far off places each year ....to go shopping ...so she has something to talk about at work, besides work .

Work THAT out ?
🤷😳🤷😳🤷😳🤷

Sometimes while she's telling me stuff, and I'm standing there letting her feel all important and in control, there's this little part of my mind that tries to look through her eyes in to her soul....and I feel it's in there, huddled into a tiny ball ....just rocking back and forth.
And I wonder if she knows what serenity is .... or what peace is ....or what childlike wonder is...

And you know ....I got a feeling she doesn't .

Being at work is like watching people being chess pieces ....all playing their part - never moving beyond what they are designated to do .

And to make it worse ....now, in their lunch breaks ...they are all in their phones facebooking!
- And talking about Facebook
- And showing each other what their Facebook algorithm sends them....and I just think ...[b]wow!👀[/b]

In this reality, those who define themselves "red-pilled" paradoxically are the worst extremization of that. Not only the fight to preserve the most archaic parts of the status quo, but also they fiercely fight to restore a previous status quo in which the system was even more pervasive and controlling.

I think it’s sad and very very true …

I always feel that human is trapped in a system created by human, himself … and that we are becoming slaves to that system …

The Matrix had many relevant points.

There needed to be a green pill?

🤔 That we all should roll a doobie and listen to hippy music to chill

i haven't seen the movie, but if it was like paradise i wouldn't

Utter crap. Just look at oriole who claim to be “red pilled”. Cretins who can’t fit into the world so they make one up where their short comings seem noble.

To me it's just common sense. But then again. Common sense isn't common.

It's a quote from a movie where the reality was that machines were farming humans for energy so they could exist.

I don't think the quote applies to the real world.

Kind of a modern day 1984 metaphor. We believe what we are told because we lack the ability to perceive anything else independently.

True.
And it´s called ideology, worldview, "common sense" and with other more or less technical words.

So very true considering the state the world is in right now.

I should rewatch this. It should be fun.

I think this quote describes SW and SW members.

Just a line from a film

Sadly in real life this is so true. ☹️

There is a truth to it

i definitely would in the matrix yes.

Accurate

Fits in with the general paranoia of the uneducated American male.
