If you listen to the scene from the beginning, and not just the first clip we cut to, you'd hear Du Hast. EDIT: I went back and re-watched the sequence and Du Hast was not where I thought it was. I thought it was at the very beginning of the scene, but it is not... it was, indeed just Dragula (and later Prodigy), and I was wrong.

Always find some rainy night each year to rewatch this classic. "You have to understand most of these people aren't ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inert, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it." The age old battle between freedom and security, and like you pointed out with Cipher, even people who *thought* they wanted freedom sometimes aren't ready for it.
I find it fascinating that some people think their security is more important than others freedom, and they feel they have the right for violence against those people, yet somehow the still portray themselves as victims. Mind boggling.
Same. I watch it at least once a year. My absolute favorite matrix meme is the one about the four people you meet in your life: 1. The people who try to wake up the slaves 2. The slave masters 3. The people who have no idea they're slaves 4. The people who like being slaves
Apparently the original idea of The Matrix was that they were using human brains as a neural network - which makes way more sense than using humans as a power source. Also makes sense why some humans can bend/break stuff within the matrix.
I'm not gonna lie, I went into this video expecting surface level cookie cutter fluff (which I do enjoy sometimes), but wow, you went in hard on how the media lies. I respect that. We need more people like you. Stay strong.
This was all super surface level and didnt get into the ideas of the matrix worth shit. This dude is complaining about the redpill being taught to kids basically when he's whining about critical race theory. They're siding with the Man.
@@billbutton8468 I don't recall "whining" about anything, but I do have a problem with critical race theory (and pretty much any other variant of critical theory) being taught to anyone. Made this whole video about that: ruclips.net/video/UJyN41f93QQ/видео.html My issue with it here - among numerous other examples - is the gaslighting that has come from much of the media and politicians pretending that it's *not* being taught, when it clearly is. But again, this is one of dozens of instances where the media is lying to people rather intentionally.
@@billbutton8468 There is being blue pilled and then there's being willfully ignorant. FEE only glossed over the blatant FACTS about our society in order to make a philosophical point. CRT is only one of the areas they skimmed over here where the disinformation runs as far as it can go. The reason for this video wasn't to do a movie review of "The Matrix", what would be the point of doing a review of a 22 year old movie? Unless they had a take on it that no one else had. FEE doesn't do movie reviews, FEE does education. FEE often uses cinema to illustrate issues about our society. It's easier to reach people that way because most people don't put a second thought into nearly anything. It's easier to be an ostrich than to wade through all the lies. Unless you persevere and learn to see the misinformation coming at you, you will spend your whole life being carried around by the currents of lies the establishment wants you to believe.
@@FEEonline criticial race theory isnt being taught anywhere but college. But it should be. If u were "redpilled" you would agree with a red pull like CRT being taught to people. Not kept away from them. Ur on the side of the machine to keep us from being redpilled. Youre lying to people intentionally. And its easy to see through it. When they said anyone could be an agent they were talking about you.
@@trplankowner3323 their philosophical point was trash compared to the actual movie making its actual point on its own. FEE is not educating. Its just more propaganda for the machine telling us that we should take the blue pill and reject CRT(the red pill). Using cinema to point out problems with our society is great. But when ur take away is "keep the red pill away from our children" and "the media is lying about ivermectin" u just come off as laughable. U saying other peopoe dont put a second thought into things while u fall for Agent Smith's bullshit doesnt make u as woke as u think. Ur here pretending to be against the establishment while ur completely on their side telling us we shouldnt be taught about the biases and the horrible parts of the system. (Or complaining that people are saying its not being taught even though thats true) like this is establishment blue pilled bullshit and you fall for it and pretend to be woke. Its just wild
My red pill moment was watching CNN in 2017 talking about this white supremacist professor in Canada, then later watching said white supremacist (a certain Jordan Peterson) on JRE, only to discover he is in fact not a white supremacist. What was your Red Pill moment?
I've been taking red pills for a while now, but the whole "mostly peaceful protest" reports I saw on the news, while simulatiously watching people being beaten half to death and cars/buildings burnt to the ground in the videos the news doesn't want to play, really changed the way I see the MSM.
used to be when i watched news about a country or thing i knew about i would think "they just got it wrong" and not look into it, everyone makes mistakes and i know more than most people. not a big deal. however, back in the 90's i read a news story about the IDF killing a pregnant woman and a young boy. i didn't have any good contacts for the IDF, and i saw the story in several "credible" publications so i started researching the story. what i really found out was how news is made and distributed. it is so centralized that CNN and fox often report FROM the same press release, which has no meaningful relation to reality. by the way, the real story was that a boy approached an IDF squad, told them his mother was pregnant, giving birth, and needed immediate medical aid. when the squad followed the boy, and approached "her" "she" blew up killing everyone....
2001 BBC was reporting live the 911 attacks on the trade centers. BBC reported that tower 5 had fallen 15 minutes before it actually did.. The building was clearly visible behind the reporter at the time they reported it fell.. I suspect that the plane that crashed in the field that the passengers took control of, that was it's destination. They waited for the plane that never showed up then had to detonate the explosives late.. That explains why the News was early, it was on schedule. To this day no architect or any professional will say that a plane could have taken either building down. (Jet fuel can't melt steel beams) On top of that the "official" report says that one of the hijackers passports made it safely to the ground as evidence.. It was an inside Job!
The correct term would Awake as Neo found himself after meeting Morpheus for the 1st time --the mirror thingy. But as the other movies shown and Neo found out, awakened or red-pilled is no guarantee of Truth. There are a lot of falsities even after awakened.
They aren't. Woke people aren't blue pilled. Normies who buy into whatever the media, Gov't, the Woke or whomever is propagandizing are blue pilled. Woke are ideologically possessed, infected with a mind virus.
The left changes the meanings of words, hence why we're not in a recession, despite being in a recession, and antifa being fascists, and if they can't change it correctly, then they just say they need a biologist and to trust the science they're speaking
Two sides of the same coin. Two warring ideologies that care more about personal gain than the betterment of humanity. If woke redpilled ever meant something pure, those days have long passed, neither of them are as simple or as noble as their base definition. Sensible people do not buy into either.
My absolute favorite matrix meme is the one about the four people you meet in your life: 1. The people who try to wake up the slaves 2. The slave masters 3. The people who have no idea they're slaves 4. The people who like being slaves
I think 3 and 4 are actually the same. The slaves are unaware because their unconscious fear is keeping them there where they feel safe, thus they want to be there, but they don't realize it. We often don't want to know the truth because it can carry a heavy moral burden on your concious. Thus the phrase "ignorance is bliss".
“If a society is composed of self reliant, resilient and inwardly strong individuals, a positive reaction can take place, but if it is composed of weak, insecure, and helpless individuals, a decent into the delusions of a mass psychosis becomes a real possibility.” ~ Academy of Ideas
Free will is a gift. Otherwise we would be mindless automatons. The information he wanted us to know has been studied to the point it has red pilled millions that had their mind set their is no God. There is a book called the case for Christ. The author began as a militant atheist looking to disprove the story of Christ's birth death life crucifixion and resurrection. Realizing he could not do that from a basic scientific way he instead tried it as a court case would be. What's the physical evidence? How accurate is the Bible historically and has the original intent of the author been charged. How much evidence of that exists and do the stories line up as eye witnesses accounts wound need to in court today. It's a very compelling account of how he himself had to change his belief based on evidence he could not deny. This idea of moral relativism has given people the idea you can simply make your own morality relative to what you believe or choose to believe. Free will is only dangerous when we make the wrong choices. Today wrong choices are explained away relative to mental health or being raised in a bad home or whatever. When information is centered using any excuse people's ability to choose correctly declines rapidly. I mean if someone gets killed because they were attacking or shooting at a cop they are in fact responsible for their actions regardless of any outside reasoning. It's not societies fault. It's not the country's fault. It's not the cops fault. It's the individual that chose to shoot at or attack the cop or whoever else. I hear racism or he had his hands up only to find out later the whole story about anybody having their hands up was a lie told and proven to be a lie in a courtroom. Reason then dictates that the phrase itself is intended to deceive and misinform the people and yet its repeated argumentum ad nauseum until people believe it. Be careful what you immediately believe no matter who says it left right or anything else.
Wait until you learn about the “illusion of choice” You can be manipulated into a position that you think it is the choice you made from your own freewill by people who can think ahead of you. Not choice, but the ability to create your own options is the highest indication of freedom.

Makes sense really, sometimes people hide behind the rationale of skepticism to promote harmful ideas by trying to rationalize away the basic concept of empathy.
Ahmed’s clock. I happened to know an electronics pro who bought it, hook, line, and sinker that Ahmed literally “built” the infamous clock, thoroughly rejecting the idea that Ahmed simply took apart a manufactured clock. This was despite the pro having enough expertise to tell that it was manufactured with one critical glance. It didn’t matter what I said when he even refused use his own expert eyes. He stubbornly denied it until the news reported on a “expert” who was actually some dentist looking at it with the same critical eye I did. This pro was a bigger expert than me or the dentist so he should’ve been able to see everything I could see. Example? I had already pointed out that no hobbyist clock would have both AC and backup DC power supplies with a tethered mains-voltage power transformer dangling from the board because: 1) The project was a clock, not a PSU and… 2) The AC portion would have had a modular AC cord and… 3) Anyone who built an AC PSU would know not to leave it dangling/tethered with no isolation… unless they had a death wish. Before the news reported the same things I was saying he insisted that Ahmed “built” the clock. I was just some guy. Who am I to say the AUTHORITATIVE news is wrong? Who is he, himself, to contradict them? Ignore that he was surrounded by his own test equipment, oscilloscopes, and an Internet-connected auto-notifying mousetrap that he designed and programmed for himself. I guess he needs to hear it from some DENTIST on the news labeled “expert” or else his eyeballs don’t work. Before the dentist, I tried to tell him he was more authoritative than the media. I pointed out that the PCB used printed contacts for custom buttons/switches typically installed in a custom housing instead of using off the shelf components. I pointed out that they were missing because the intended housing was missing. I pointed out that you would only even use buttons like that to save pennies per clock in mass production. Once again, he insisted that Ahmed did not tear apart a previously-existing manufactured clock… even though that’s exactly what Ahmed did. I tried again. I pointed out that the only reason to have the display on a ribbon cable was to position it at an angle from the buttons/main PCB inside a very different housing. I pointed out that the ribbon would’ve had pin headers and would be disconnect-able instead of being permanently soldered if it were not a mass-manufactured clock. Once again, he refused to believe me. He still believes the dentist was somehow more credible than his own eyes merely because he read it in a news article that called him an “expert.” If that same dentist were talking to him on an Internet forum like I was (Anandtech) he would have rejected it the exact same way he rejected me and rejected his own knowledge/experience. Authoritative-sounding media is a HUGE issue.
To repeat what you said in another way, authoritative sounding media is a huge issue because actual authority figures also believe the same thing without actually thinking for themselves. They deny what they see, what they spent tens of thousands of dollars on in their field of expertise, they just deny reality. All because they were conditioned by their education, whether public schooling or college, to blindly accept what authority figures say.
I went for decades believing the the dominant news media were concerned with truth, and the by in large our government was genuinely concerned with the well being of the people. How could I have been so foolish.
Matrix was a modern masterpiece. I remember watching it with my father who has since passed. He was a Christian and marveled at the Christian themes and symbols.
5:55, fun fact: in the draft proposal for the matrix, the reason for harvesting humans was for their brains to work as spuedo-procesors in order to increase the thinking speed and maintain the performance of the machine overlords. It was shafted for the battery idea since producers were scared that this would be too hard to understand and would scare away audiences. So that's just my new head-cannon.
Plot twist: the "humans are bateries" is Matrix propaganda to hide something much worse. If machines use your brain as procesors, then that means they molded your physical brain to fit their machinary. You know how there are sounds and colors that can't be perceived by human brain? What if the machine limited your physical brain in the same way? Your physical brain was molded to operate on a specific way. Even if you "unplug" from the Matrix, what makes you so sure you are free? You are not. You are a machine, an organic machine, a component of the Matrix.
well I think the battery idea flew because being used as a battery is very disgusting, where if it were for our brains it wouldn't have bite. being enslaved for electricity is really much worse sounding than for using our brains. that somehow still sounds like we have a contribution
@@flipnap2112 good point but the twist could be that they don't even need us. It's just that growing a human is way easier than making a new processor since most rare metals have already been repurposed as part of the hive hardware. They could even rub salt in the wound by saying human life expectancy would be way longer, but humans burn out too quickly as processors which is why so many of them are grown at a time

Out of all the channels I'd recommend someone to subscribe to on RUclips, this is the one that I'd say everyone should keep up with.

There is a left-wing Twitch streamer named Destiny, and he would often mock the idea that social media rules were geared to unfairly target right-wingers. Then, when he was telling the objective truth about the Kyle Rittenhouse case, Twitch demoted him. This was a 'red-pill moment' for many of his viewers.
@@kostajovanovic3711 Destiny is left-wing, what are you talking about? On almost every political issue, he holds the typical left-wing opinion on it. For one example, he literally did a whole debate about why we should change the definition of 'woman' to also include 'man'. Destiny is intelligent, but his fatal flaw is that he trusts the institutions, academics, and 'experts' blindly. There is a reason this country is democratic-republic, and not a technocracy.
@@justinmadrid8712 destiny is a liberal also it's really anti intellectual to not give any damn about the scientific census. You're literally arriving at conclusions by emotions
It is interesting to see how right-wingers play the victim card when the tides start to turn against them. It is the very same behavior that conservatives decry when communities which are persecuted by society speak out about their experiences.
I'd have to say my first time being red-pilled was as a barely 7 year old kid when I was demonized for being a minority, a supposedly privelaged one at that, for being born with a certain skin colour that was not part of the majority of my continent. My family had never have any special privileges or advantages. And that situation has not changed in all my life. Everything we have, we had to put up a fight to get.
The new movie is coming in a few weeks.. all the algorithms are putting Matrix content up front, and content creators are capitalizing on the hype and algorithm also..
I liked the first movie and started watching the second, but I had to stop after the 10 minute long rave in a cave with no purpose to it, lol it was terrible.
@@nickwilson3499 lol I never said it was.. What makes you think I did, though? Also: the rave scene is a scene I always skip past lol, but the movie really is better than that scene.. even with the couple cringey moments, like that scene..
Love these out of frames! Always fantastically written and about connecting old/new ideas together to put the truth forward in a sensible and calm manner.
The human battery thing is a lie. The movie was forced to include that plot hole because the wichowskis we're told that people would be too stupid to understand a network collective of humans being used for computation. More than that though we learn the machines have no interest in killing off humanity but humanity cannot be allowed to roam free given they tried to wipe out the machines. So the humans were put into a perfectly controllable simulation.
Morpheus told Neo that the machines ironically depend on humans the same way humans depend on machines. There is more behind than just that machines need a power source but the machines needed their own way to justify their existence. (Like agent smith justifying that Humanity is a virus and they are the cure). Without the matrix machines cannot realize meaning of their existence like without technology humans cannot realize meaning in their existence. Power source isnt just literal it’s figurative in finding a purpose. The matrix to the machines is like how technology is to humans. The Matrix and technology can be used to hide the truth and real purpose. However if humans control the matrix and machines control technology they are way more powerful and truthful about what they are.
This. Them using humans as a computational power source is what actually makes sense given that brains are capable of vastly more processing power for significantly less power draw than computers.
@@d15c0rd7 which introduces another paradox. How were machines superior to humans to take over? Wouldn't the machines instead try to figure out how to make themselves compute more like a brain than the overhead of keeping humans around. I think the real problem is the premise is that AI will ever become that capable. Our fear of AI is just a symptom of our God ego that we can create something greater than ourselves.
I consistently try to get my friends and family to watch these... but no one listens. I still believe that you are doing great work. I believe in Seamus.
The general rule is they won't care until it directly effects them. Show them the M1 stock for inflation. Or the fact that gas has skyrocketed. Once you get one red pill in, it's easy to chain it to other ones (because they're all basically connected to old money cable media & lobbying)
Can we be that surprised though? Most people don't care if it's just one or two mistakes or if they don't see the pattern of errors. But once they see the whole picture, it wrecks their ability to trust everything.
I know someone like this and they now believe in Young earth theories and pretty much everything out of Alex Jones mouth. Like, reality and science is just a hoax to them at this point and its a struggle to see reality at this other end

Hi! Great video as always. I don't know if you'll ever read this, but I'd like to recommend a show for you to cover. It's a British thriller called Utopia, and not only does it have a great story, great soundtrack, and stunning visuals, its subject matter is exactly the kind of thing you cover on this channel. But even if you decide not to make a video on it, I just wanted to let you know that you make insightful, smart videos. Keep up the good work!
Some people just choose not to be 'red pilled'. Because the reality is too depressing and harsh. That was mentioned in the movie. Many don't wanna believe that most "conspiracy theories" aren't theories anymore, they're proven facts with evidence, that is constantly ignored or hidden by the "reporters". This is because they don't want their manufactured "safe" realities shattered, so they instead retreat into strong denial and utter disbelief and guard those two with their life. That's where we get aggressive people who immediately get emotional and try to silence/censor anyone who says something that would shatter their manufactured "safe" reality. This has gotten to the point, that if you question someone's manufactured reality or even hint at the fact that it is manufactured, they will personally make it their mission to ruin your life. This is a much deeper problem than we realize. It's bordering on obsession and mental illness at this point.
As soon as you said it I knew it was wrong. It was "Dragula" by Rob Zombie playing when Trinity walked up in the club. Everything you said is absolutely true.
@@MRCKify discussed that on another comment as well, but it was called "Bound", and the word "debut" does not just mean "first ever". It means ": a formal entrance into society". It's true that Bound exists and had a small release, but it wasn't what really introduced the Wachowskis to the public. You can quibble with my word choice, but I stand by it as fairly standard.
@@FEEonline I've never watched it; I haven't been persuaded to kill an afternoon on it. It's just trivia in all senses of that adjective. Like I said, a nit so small, it's probably not worth picking.
Always admire the thoughtful insights of this channel. I do not take anyone’s spin on things unless they have sources. And if they have to retract, I am highly suspicious when their original headline is “YOU WON’T BELIEVE THIS! WE ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT ABOUT THIS!” but their retraction is on page 20 like…. . . . . . . “or maybe we are wrong” (in 7 point type font of course)
When even dictionary definitions are changed in a single day to fit the narrative being laid out as truth the sources are quite often as wrong as the argument and conclusion being presented. Someone tried to explain to me that personal responsibility somehow meant something other than the individual being directly responsible for their own actions the blue pill kicked in. When language and meanings are changed to fit some ideology none of it is trustworthy.
Sean, if you want, I'd be happy to talk about what it's like to go through Journalism School with you. I graduated from Kent State University in 2020. Partially because of that toxic culture I no longer work in the field.
I never had a red pill moment... I grew up in a home with a bipolar parent who, when manic, would say and do some literally crazy things. And when you can't trust what your parents say or do, you don't need to be red pilled. It is obvious you can't always trust... much of anything. I have come across many things now that I believed true that turned out false. You can't trust yourself to discern truth. It matters not intent, reality is often obfuscated. Too often it isn't what you don't know that will harm you but what you think you know that just aint so. With regard to philosophy, while I appreciate existentialism and postmodernism for pointing out the troubles of knowing, their solution to just believe and act accordingly is indistinguishable from insanity. The content of a belief has no necessary connection to reality. Strength of belief, or even consensus more often than not only cements the delusion, rather than obtains a sliver of reality. This is one of the reasons why Samuel Clemens often said that whenever you agree with the majority, you should pause.
I totally agree with you, and I must say that growing with a bipolar and emotional unstable parent that recommends suicide to his/her own son when times of trouble come it is harder to even trust oneself. It will affect one’s life in a way that indirectly will cause you psychological damage, like causing bipolar episodes in oneself, yet regardless of the emotional state, one cannot learn to trust back.
Humans are still net-negative for energy production. For that matter, why use humans and not (presumably easier to control) cows or pigs? In my headcanon, they don't actually use human bodies for heat, they use human brains for compute.
@@cheezeebutter452 that was the original idea. Executive meddling got involved because Warner Brothers figured audiences we're to stupid to understand the original concept.
I've never liked the red pill personally. It's all about answers, while I've always preferred good questions. Becuase a good question gets people to think, and when they start thinking for themselves, that's when they can become free.
When you take the red pill, you get answers to all the surface level questions so you can find the deeper questions you should be asking in the first place.
@@Ironica82 Not necessarily. The red pill isn't about giving you the truth (or answers), but rather opening the door for you to discover the answers yourself.
I think it's an interesting point about scepticism, but I want to disagree with one thing in the video. Cospiracy theories aren't pointless. I think they play heavily into the concept of scepticism. The common narrative is that conspiracy theorists are dumb, but I think that's not the case. I think they're TOO sceptical. Y'see, once you stop trusting news organisations, media publishers, scientific organisations etc, then where do you get your information? This leads to demonstrably false claims that refuse to be taken down because 'that's what they want you to think man'. It's important to be sceptical, yes. But you sholdn't immediately dismiss information as false either. It's a difficult and tough line to walk, but try not to cut yourself off completely. What really needs to happen is a complete overhaul of the industry, but I don't expect that to happen anytime soon.
Something I don’t understand about this concept is that it seems awfully fatalist to assume that the media always lies unless it’s this list of sources in which case it’s always true. I’ve never understood that. If someone can give me a better explanation I’d be grateful
You’re doing great work. Telling truths, being subtle as to stay under the radar and not dissuade viewers. This video is close to an idea I’ve wanted to convey. A timeline of events mixed with social sentiment as a result of what is being communicated. Somehow demonstrating the push and pullback, push and pullback. Dividing society further and further little by little, slowly stripping norms and wearing us down, demoralizing us. Narratives bing pushed, the sentiment generated by it, the truth, and then when the narrative changes as a result of backlash from the quite people in society.
Wondered why I was not all over that movie as much as many of my friends and I figured it's probably because I was redpilled early way before and I even knew myself I had being redpilled very early.Took me decades to realize my Red Pill was as early as my memories of childhood. All from the place I was born and raised in
To be fair, if reality were a simulation and we were used as batteries, it's not unreasonable to think that our robot overlords would edit the laws of physics so it would be impossible in the matrix when it's possible in the real world.
at 5:56, I agree with you that it would make no sense to use humans as a source of energy. However, I believe that this is explained in the series ''Animatrix'': Just before humanity is plugged into the matrix, there is a scene where the world leaders sign a contract with the machine. Perhaps, one of the terms of the contract is to have humanity confined to a digital prison, where they cannot harm machines, but the machines must ensure the survival of mankind. This is supported by the fact that the architect wipes out zion again and again and yet allows some humans to rebuild it. We see at the end of the third movie that machines honor their contracts even if they despises humanity for not honoring their contracts. So we know that machines will hold their end of the bargain, for millenias if need be. However, it is logical that machines would want a return on their investment and if they can get something without breaking the contract, they would do it. Even if the machine can only get a portion of the energy back that they invest into humans, I believe they would find that preferable than nothing.
On propaganda, I have used the broad term to denounce ones claims to say this very thing. “You’re a propagandist for saying (insert whatever they don’t like about what I said)” “Well everyone by that definition is a currier of propaganda, you are by (insert whatever I’m arguing)” Thank you! Going deeper into the word makes it more difficult to not only use the word but also makes it more impactful

It can be very frustrating to feel like the only sane person in a sea full of people who clearly aren't willing to think for themselves. That's why all you can do is strive to educate yourself by examining multiple sources to see how they align and contrast with each other, then decide for yourself what you want to believe in. Because you can't force people to seek out new perspectives if they simply don't want to.
Could you guys do a video about intervention in authoritarian countries, basing the topic on FAR CRY 6? The game suffers from the "Jack Ryan Venezuela Dilemma", where a country based on communist Cuba gets its awful government from capitalism, instead of communism. There are plenty of other eye-rolling themes in the game such as American freedom not coming in Latino's color(yeah, that's an actual line in the game), business bad and radical socialism good, and the mind-numbing justification of slavery.

Awesome video! It's such a tough issue... Big tech has essentially an oligopoly on information, and the employees of those companies all basically in their own intellectual bubbles. I agree that it is incredibly scary and disheartening, to imagine the amount of information we don't see... If this was a government organization, the answer would be easy: make it private. But these are private companies with a bias in favor of government, to the point where it is effectively state-run media... But what's the solution, other than encouraging individuals to DYOR? Do you think that big tech should be broken up?
Yes, Big Tech should be broken up. Once a company becomes so powerful it rivals actual governments in terms of influence, they should be regulated to hell. They should have NO SAY in what content they allow on their platforms. In fact, we already have laws about this, which Facebook, Twitter, and Google all flaunt. As platforms, they cannot be held responsible for their content, but they are no longer platforms, they are publishers that control what is and is not allowed on their site. That means they should be held liable for the content on their site. Enforcing that law would utterly destroy all of the social media sites, as they would be sued out of existence for slander, libel, and copyright infringement.
@@davidtucker9498 it would be a horrible idea to classify them as a publisher, because that would just mean more censorship... If they could be held liable for slander, libel, and copyright infringement, then why would they let anyone post anything substantial? The issue with regulating them is that it can create a barrier to entry, making it more difficult for competition to be introduced. Although it is already difficult, which is why it's not as cut and dry as just regulation... They are a private company with rights and liberties. Breaking the companies up could not solve the problem either, because you would have the same problem of these companies being in Silicon Valley and involved in the same intellectual bubbles. It's a tough question

@@DoubleBob Pendulum swings! Yeah, the left/right is an over simplification useful too to classify people just like by race, religion, gender, etc. Very useful to demagogues. But it's still somehow true up to a point even if they have much more in common than in difference.
It’s true that using human beings as batteries would be counterproductive and is obviously not efficient in any way. As I understand it, the original concept for the script was that the machines were using humanity’s collective brain for computing and processing power, which makes more sense but was deemed to complicated to grasp by whoever was advicing the Wachowskis, and so it was discarded.
And this is exactly why I yearn for the destruction and Balkanization of big tech monopolies and decentralization of state authority. Neither will ever happen, but it didn’t mean I don’t dream of it.

I wish it were as easy as just telling people to take a skeptical attitude. It boils down to the top cognitive judgment function of the person's personality. Those with introverted thinking are naturally skeptical, defining truth from their experiences or logical reasoning as a natural first judgment on information. Those with extroverted feeling judge information on what it right, as defined by the collective rather than themselves, over what it actually true, however, they also have a tendency to question the truth in the way introverted thinkers do. So, they aren't so easily fooled. Those with extroverted thinking define the truth by what they are told by those they designate as authorities and/or what they perceive as a general consensus. This makes them vulnerable to propaganda. Those with introverted feeling are even worse, first defining what is right based on their own internal emotional responses and defining truth by the same extroverted thinking methods as above. So, they are especially vulnerable to propaganda, especially emotional manipulative types. They're almost guaranteed to fall for it. The worst part about this is introverted thinkers are only about 15% of the population, and if including extroverted feelers, it is still barely 35% of the population. This leaves skeptics as a small minority, and good skeptics, who actually see through the lies, as an extremely small minority. The introverted feelers alone outnumber introverted thinkers and extroverted feelers. We NEED hard, repeated proof of malfeasance, not just something that can be redefined as a mistake, to get those people to quit listening to propaganda.
A mainstream personality psychology model, Big 5/ OCEAN Model, separates Extraversion/Introversion spectrum from curiosity (O=Openess to Experience spectrum) and the Agreeableness/Stubbornness spectrum. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Five_personality_traits Jordan Peterson has done some work about what kind of subjective conformity might go into the Agreeableness pile.
It gets worse. Although INTJs (also intuitive thinkers) are generally intelligent enough to detect falsity, they become emotionally attached to their own "Truth" even in the presence of alternatives. They become biased internally and much too focussed in having "the one" (not Neo) answer. I'd say only INTPs & ENTPs have a more *reliable* capacity for removing falsity & _approaching_ Truth. Or maybe just INTPs...
@@MRCKify I don't object to the Big 5 personality theory, but I find that is more about how WELL a personality works, while the modern development of MBTI is about HOW a personality works. They can coexist. MBTI is more about the hardware, what a mind can and can't do as well as preferred methods, while the Big 5 is more about the tuning of that mind. Take me for example, while I could have been far more successful in life if I'd had certain things go better, become less agreeable, and more open, I would NEVER have been able to be a performer, athlete, or artist. My tendency toward INTP showed up very young, as I valued puzzle games as early as 2, taught myself to read at 3 and a half, and figured out what people call Common Core math when I was 8. I also have been clumsy, socially awkward, and completely unartistic since the very beginning. I didn't push myself to learn to walk until after I was a year old, and it was only because I pulled a lamp over on myself and broke my arm that I got up and walked. How INTP is that? Some things in the Big 5 can change. People can work at being less agreeable, more contentious, and more open, they can't work on changing how they define truth or right or work to be more intuitive. There might be subtle changes in someone's MBTI type over time, but it is not going to change much.
I remember watching the movie together with my whole family when I was about 9. At that age I didn't understand the depth of the meaning of the story, however I do remember very clearly the groundbreaking effect it had on me and what seemed like the whole world since it came out!

"You have to understand most of these people aren't ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inert, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it."

Apparently the original idea of The Matrix was that they were using human brains as a neural network - which makes way more sense than using humans as a power source.
Also makes sense why some humans can bend/break stuff within the matrix.

My red pill moment was watching CNN in 2017 talking about this white supremacist professor in Canada, then later watching said white supremacist (a certain Jordan Peterson) on JRE, only to discover he is in fact not a white supremacist. What was your Red Pill moment?
I've been taking red pills for a while now, but the whole "mostly peaceful protest" reports I saw on the news, while simulatiously watching people being beaten half to death and cars/buildings burnt to the ground in the videos the news doesn't want to play, really changed the way I see the MSM.
Someone needs to make a playlist of Redpill moments!
used to be when i watched news about a country or thing i knew about i would think "they just got it wrong" and not look into it, everyone makes mistakes and i know more than most people. not a big deal. however, back in the 90's i read a news story about the IDF killing a pregnant woman and a young boy. i didn't have any good contacts for the IDF, and i saw the story in several "credible" publications so i started researching the story. what i really found out was how news is made and distributed. it is so centralized that CNN and fox often report FROM the same press release, which has no meaningful relation to reality. by the way, the real story was that a boy approached an IDF squad, told them his mother was pregnant, giving birth, and needed immediate medical aid. when the squad followed the boy, and approached "her" "she" blew up killing everyone....
My moment was when CNN doxxed that guy for making a gif of CNN being hammered by Trump....
2001 BBC was reporting live the 911 attacks on the trade centers.
BBC reported that tower 5 had fallen 15 minutes before it actually did..
The building was clearly visible behind the reporter at the time they reported it fell..
I suspect that the plane that crashed in the field that the passengers took control of, that was it's destination. They waited for the plane that never showed up then had to detonate the explosives late.. That explains why the News was early, it was on schedule.
To this day no architect or any professional will say that a plane could have taken either building down.
(Jet fuel can't melt steel beams)
On top of that the "official" report says that one of the hijackers passports made it safely to the ground as evidence..
It was an inside Job!
How ironic is it that nowadays the terms "woke" and "red-pilled" are antonyms?
The correct term would Awake as Neo found himself after meeting Morpheus for the 1st time --the mirror thingy.
But as the other movies shown and Neo found out, awakened or red-pilled is no guarantee of Truth.
There are a lot of falsities even after awakened.

redpilled = aware of Jewish power
Two sides of the same coin. Two warring ideologies that care more about personal gain than the betterment of humanity. If woke redpilled ever meant something pure, those days have long passed, neither of them are as simple or as noble as their base definition. Sensible people do not buy into either.

Choice. The most powerful and dangerous of God's creations.
Free will is a gift. Otherwise we would be mindless automatons. The information he wanted us to know has been studied to the point it has red pilled millions that had their mind set their is no God. There is a book called the case for Christ. The author began as a militant atheist looking to disprove the story of Christ's birth death life crucifixion and resurrection. Realizing he could not do that from a basic scientific way he instead tried it as a court case would be. What's the physical evidence? How accurate is the Bible historically and has the original intent of the author been charged. How much evidence of that exists and do the stories line up as eye witnesses accounts wound need to in court today. It's a very compelling account of how he himself had to change his belief based on evidence he could not deny. This idea of moral relativism has given people the idea you can simply make your own morality relative to what you believe or choose to believe. Free will is only dangerous when we make the wrong choices. Today wrong choices are explained away relative to mental health or being raised in a bad home or whatever. When information is centered using any excuse people's ability to choose correctly declines rapidly. I mean if someone gets killed because they were attacking or shooting at a cop they are in fact responsible for their actions regardless of any outside reasoning. It's not societies fault. It's not the country's fault. It's not the cops fault. It's the individual that chose to shoot at or attack the cop or whoever else. I hear racism or he had his hands up only to find out later the whole story about anybody having their hands up was a lie told and proven to be a lie in a courtroom. Reason then dictates that the phrase itself is intended to deceive and misinform the people and yet its repeated argumentum ad nauseum until people believe it. Be careful what you immediately believe no matter who says it left right or anything else.
Wait until you learn about the “illusion of choice”
You can be manipulated into a position that you think it is the choice you made from your own freewill by people who can think ahead of you.
Not choice, but the ability to create your own options is the highest indication of freedom.

Ahmed’s clock.
I happened to know an electronics pro who bought it, hook, line, and sinker that Ahmed literally “built” the infamous clock, thoroughly rejecting the idea that Ahmed simply took apart a manufactured clock. This was despite the pro having enough expertise to tell that it was manufactured with one critical glance. It didn’t matter what I said when he even refused use his own expert eyes. He stubbornly denied it until the news reported on a “expert” who was actually some dentist looking at it with the same critical eye I did.
This pro was a bigger expert than me or the dentist so he should’ve been able to see everything I could see. Example? I had already pointed out that no hobbyist clock would have both AC and backup DC power supplies with a tethered mains-voltage power transformer dangling from the board because:
1) The project was a clock, not a PSU and…
2) The AC portion would have had a modular AC cord and…
3) Anyone who built an AC PSU would know not to leave it dangling/tethered with no isolation… unless they had a death wish.
Before the news reported the same things I was saying he insisted that Ahmed “built” the clock. I was just some guy. Who am I to say the AUTHORITATIVE news is wrong? Who is he, himself, to contradict them? Ignore that he was surrounded by his own test equipment, oscilloscopes, and an Internet-connected auto-notifying mousetrap that he designed and programmed for himself. I guess he needs to hear it from some DENTIST on the news labeled “expert” or else his eyeballs don’t work.
Before the dentist, I tried to tell him he was more authoritative than the media. I pointed out that the PCB used printed contacts for custom buttons/switches typically installed in a custom housing instead of using off the shelf components. I pointed out that they were missing because the intended housing was missing. I pointed out that you would only even use buttons like that to save pennies per clock in mass production. Once again, he insisted that Ahmed did not tear apart a previously-existing manufactured clock… even though that’s exactly what Ahmed did.
I tried again. I pointed out that the only reason to have the display on a ribbon cable was to position it at an angle from the buttons/main PCB inside a very different housing. I pointed out that the ribbon would’ve had pin headers and would be disconnect-able instead of being permanently soldered if it were not a mass-manufactured clock. Once again, he refused to believe me.
He still believes the dentist was somehow more credible than his own eyes merely because he read it in a news article that called him an “expert.” If that same dentist were talking to him on an Internet forum like I was (Anandtech) he would have rejected it the exact same way he rejected me and rejected his own knowledge/experience.
Authoritative-sounding media is a HUGE issue.
To repeat what you said in another way, authoritative sounding media is a huge issue because actual authority figures also believe the same thing without actually thinking for themselves. They deny what they see, what they spent tens of thousands of dollars on in their field of expertise, they just deny reality. All because they were conditioned by their education, whether public schooling or college, to blindly accept what authority figures say.

5:55, fun fact: in the draft proposal for the matrix, the reason for harvesting humans was for their brains to work as spuedo-procesors in order to increase the thinking speed and maintain the performance of the machine overlords. It was shafted for the battery idea since producers were scared that this would be too hard to understand and would scare away audiences. So that's just my new head-cannon.

What if the machine limited your physical brain in the same way? Your physical brain was molded to operate on a specific way. Even if you "unplug" from the Matrix, what makes you so sure you are free? You are not. You are a machine, an organic machine, a component of the Matrix.

The human battery thing is a lie. The movie was forced to include that plot hole because the wichowskis we're told that people would be too stupid to understand a network collective of humans being used for computation. More than that though we learn the machines have no interest in killing off humanity but humanity cannot be allowed to roam free given they tried to wipe out the machines. So the humans were put into a perfectly controllable simulation.
Morpheus told Neo that the machines ironically depend on humans the same way humans depend on machines.
There is more behind than just that machines need a power source but the machines needed their own way to justify their existence. (Like agent smith justifying that Humanity is a virus and they are the cure). Without the matrix machines cannot realize meaning of their existence like without technology humans cannot realize meaning in their existence. Power source isnt just literal it’s figurative in finding a purpose.
The matrix to the machines is like how technology is to humans. The Matrix and technology can be used to hide the truth and real purpose. However if humans control the matrix and machines control technology they are way more powerful and truthful about what they are.

Can we be that surprised though? Most people don't care if it's just one or two mistakes or if they don't see the pattern of errors. But once they see the whole picture, it wrecks their ability to trust everything.

Hi! Great video as always. I don't know if you'll ever read this, but I'd like to recommend a show for you to cover. It's a British thriller called Utopia, and not only does it have a great story, great soundtrack, and stunning visuals, its subject matter is exactly the kind of thing you cover on this channel. But even if you decide not to make a video on it, I just wanted to let you know that you make insightful, smart videos. Keep up the good work!

Hey, I see a man of culture
@@FEEonline I highly suggest it.
Some people just choose not to be 'red pilled'. Because the reality is too depressing and harsh. That was mentioned in the movie. Many don't wanna believe that most "conspiracy theories" aren't theories anymore, they're proven facts with evidence, that is constantly ignored or hidden by the "reporters".
This is because they don't want their manufactured "safe" realities shattered, so they instead retreat into strong denial and utter disbelief and guard those two with their life.
That's where we get aggressive people who immediately get emotional and try to silence/censor anyone who says something that would shatter their manufactured "safe" reality.
This has gotten to the point, that if you question someone's manufactured reality or even hint at the fact that it is manufactured, they will personally make it their mission to ruin your life.
This is a much deeper problem than we realize. It's bordering on obsession and mental illness at this point.

I never had a red pill moment... I grew up in a home with a bipolar parent who, when manic, would say and do some literally crazy things. And when you can't trust what your parents say or do, you don't need to be red pilled. It is obvious you can't always trust... much of anything.
I have come across many things now that I believed true that turned out false. You can't trust yourself to discern truth. It matters not intent, reality is often obfuscated.
Too often it isn't what you don't know that will harm you but what you think you know that just aint so.
With regard to philosophy, while I appreciate existentialism and postmodernism for pointing out the troubles of knowing, their solution to just believe and act accordingly is indistinguishable from insanity. The content of a belief has no necessary connection to reality. Strength of belief, or even consensus more often than not only cements the delusion, rather than obtains a sliver of reality. This is one of the reasons why Samuel Clemens often said that whenever you agree with the majority, you should pause.
I totally agree with you, and I must say that growing with a bipolar and emotional unstable parent that recommends suicide to his/her own son when times of trouble come it is harder to even trust oneself. It will affect one’s life in a way that indirectly will cause you psychological damage, like causing bipolar episodes in oneself, yet regardless of the emotional state, one cannot learn to trust back.
So you were educated to be redpilled? Based!

I've never liked the red pill personally. It's all about answers, while I've always preferred good questions. Becuase a good question gets people to think, and when they start thinking for themselves, that's when they can become free.
Sorry, what?
The red pill is all about showing you questions you'd never considered before, while the blue pill hides those questions.
When you take the red pill, you get answers to all the surface level questions so you can find the deeper questions you should be asking in the first place.
@@Ironica82 Not necessarily. The red pill isn't about giving you the truth (or answers), but rather opening the door for you to discover the answers yourself.

I think it's an interesting point about scepticism, but I want to disagree with one thing in the video. Cospiracy theories aren't pointless. I think they play heavily into the concept of scepticism. The common narrative is that conspiracy theorists are dumb, but I think that's not the case. I think they're TOO sceptical. Y'see, once you stop trusting news organisations, media publishers, scientific organisations etc, then where do you get your information? This leads to demonstrably false claims that refuse to be taken down because 'that's what they want you to think man'. It's important to be sceptical, yes. But you sholdn't immediately dismiss information as false either. It's a difficult and tough line to walk, but try not to cut yourself off completely. What really needs to happen is a complete overhaul of the industry, but I don't expect that to happen anytime soon.
Something I don’t understand about this concept is that it seems awfully fatalist to assume that the media always lies unless it’s this list of sources in which case it’s always true. I’ve never understood that. If someone can give me a better explanation I’d be grateful
I still find it hilarious that the people who popularized the terms red pill and blue pill are hardcore blue pilled

You’re doing great work. Telling truths, being subtle as to stay under the radar and not dissuade viewers. This video is close to an idea I’ve wanted to convey. A timeline of events mixed with social sentiment as a result of what is being communicated. Somehow demonstrating the push and pullback, push and pullback. Dividing society further and further little by little, slowly stripping norms and wearing us down, demoralizing us. Narratives bing pushed, the sentiment generated by it, the truth, and then when the narrative changes as a result of backlash from the quite people in society.
Taking the red pill is one of the best things I have done in my life.
Wondered why I was not all over that movie as much as many of my friends and I figured it's probably because I was redpilled early way before and I even knew myself I had being redpilled very early.Took me decades to realize my Red Pill was as early as my memories of childhood. All from the place I was born and raised in
Possibly the best episode yet Sean!! Certainly the most important :)
The perfect example of this... i didnt get any notification of you uploading this video
To be fair, if reality were a simulation and we were used as batteries, it's not unreasonable to think that our robot overlords would edit the laws of physics so it would be impossible in the matrix when it's possible in the real world.
*Thank* you! You summarized and clarified this concept/value so very well, and I appreciate that. I wish more people did.
at 5:56, I agree with you that it would make no sense to use humans as a source of energy. However, I believe that this is explained in the series ''Animatrix'':
Just before humanity is plugged into the matrix, there is a scene where the world leaders sign a contract with the machine. Perhaps, one of the terms of the contract is to have humanity confined to a digital prison, where they cannot harm machines, but the machines must ensure the survival of mankind.
This is supported by the fact that the architect wipes out zion again and again and yet allows some humans to rebuild it.
We see at the end of the third movie that machines honor their contracts even if they despises humanity for not honoring their contracts. So we know that machines will hold their end of the bargain, for millenias if need be.
However, it is logical that machines would want a return on their investment and if they can get something without breaking the contract, they would do it.
Even if the machine can only get a portion of the energy back that they invest into humans, I believe they would find that preferable than nothing.
On propaganda, I have used the broad term to denounce ones claims to say this very thing. “You’re a propagandist for saying (insert whatever they don’t like about what I said)”
“Well everyone by that definition is a currier of propaganda, you are by (insert whatever I’m arguing)”
Thank you! Going deeper into the word makes it more difficult to not only use the word but also makes it more impactful

Could you guys do a video about intervention in authoritarian countries, basing the topic on FAR CRY 6? The game suffers from the "Jack Ryan Venezuela Dilemma", where a country based on communist Cuba gets its awful government from capitalism, instead of communism. There are plenty of other eye-rolling themes in the game such as American freedom not coming in Latino's color(yeah, that's an actual line in the game), business bad and radical socialism good, and the mind-numbing justification of slavery.
in fact so many people have actually reached this state of awareness, it’s pretty clear the original directors of the first movie were trying to reclaim the entire meaning of the process of gnosis with the fourth incarnation of the series. Fortunately it’s too late to put the genie back in the bottle and they failed.
The matrix was the reason I bought a DVD player (back in the VHS days)...

Awesome video! It's such a tough issue... Big tech has essentially an oligopoly on information, and the employees of those companies all basically in their own intellectual bubbles. I agree that it is incredibly scary and disheartening, to imagine the amount of information we don't see... If this was a government organization, the answer would be easy: make it private. But these are private companies with a bias in favor of government, to the point where it is effectively state-run media... But what's the solution, other than encouraging individuals to DYOR? Do you think that big tech should be broken up?
Pseudo-intellectual...
They stop being private when they collude with governments.
Yes, Big Tech should be broken up. Once a company becomes so powerful it rivals actual governments in terms of influence, they should be regulated to hell. They should have NO SAY in what content they allow on their platforms. In fact, we already have laws about this, which Facebook, Twitter, and Google all flaunt. As platforms, they cannot be held responsible for their content, but they are no longer platforms, they are publishers that control what is and is not allowed on their site. That means they should be held liable for the content on their site. Enforcing that law would utterly destroy all of the social media sites, as they would be sued out of existence for slander, libel, and copyright infringement.
@@davidtucker9498 it would be a horrible idea to classify them as a publisher, because that would just mean more censorship... If they could be held liable for slander, libel, and copyright infringement, then why would they let anyone post anything substantial?
The issue with regulating them is that it can create a barrier to entry, making it more difficult for competition to be introduced. Although it is already difficult, which is why it's not as cut and dry as just regulation... They are a private company with rights and liberties. Breaking the companies up could not solve the problem either, because you would have the same problem of these companies being in Silicon Valley and involved in the same intellectual bubbles.

It’s true that using human beings as batteries would be counterproductive and is obviously not efficient in any way. As I understand it, the original concept for the script was that the machines were using humanity’s collective brain for computing and processing power, which makes more sense but was deemed to complicated to grasp by whoever was advicing the Wachowskis, and so it was discarded.

I wish it were as easy as just telling people to take a skeptical attitude. It boils down to the top cognitive judgment function of the person's personality.
Those with introverted thinking are naturally skeptical, defining truth from their experiences or logical reasoning as a natural first judgment on information.
Those with extroverted feeling judge information on what it right, as defined by the collective rather than themselves, over what it actually true, however, they also have a tendency to question the truth in the way introverted thinkers do. So, they aren't so easily fooled.
Those with extroverted thinking define the truth by what they are told by those they designate as authorities and/or what they perceive as a general consensus. This makes them vulnerable to propaganda.
Those with introverted feeling are even worse, first defining what is right based on their own internal emotional responses and defining truth by the same extroverted thinking methods as above. So, they are especially vulnerable to propaganda, especially emotional manipulative types. They're almost guaranteed to fall for it.
The worst part about this is introverted thinkers are only about 15% of the population, and if including extroverted feelers, it is still barely 35% of the population. This leaves skeptics as a small minority, and good skeptics, who actually see through the lies, as an extremely small minority. The introverted feelers alone outnumber introverted thinkers and extroverted feelers.
We NEED hard, repeated proof of malfeasance, not just something that can be redefined as a mistake, to get those people to quit listening to propaganda.
A mainstream personality psychology model, Big 5/ OCEAN Model, separates Extraversion/Introversion spectrum from curiosity (O=Openess to Experience spectrum) and the Agreeableness/Stubbornness spectrum.

Jordan Peterson has done some work about what kind of subjective conformity might go into the Agreeableness pile.
INTPs to the top!!!
It gets worse.
Although INTJs (also intuitive thinkers) are generally intelligent enough to detect falsity, they become emotionally attached to their own "Truth" even in the presence of alternatives.
They become biased internally and much too focussed in having "the one" (not Neo) answer.
I'd say only INTPs & ENTPs have a more *reliable* capacity for removing falsity & _approaching_ Truth.
Or maybe just INTPs...
@@castigousmetamageus8356 So you find Myers-Briggs to be be more useful than, say, 4 Humors? What's the drawback of Big 5?
@@MRCKify I don't object to the Big 5 personality theory, but I find that is more about how WELL a personality works, while the modern development of MBTI is about HOW a personality works. They can coexist. MBTI is more about the hardware, what a mind can and can't do as well as preferred methods, while the Big 5 is more about the tuning of that mind.
Take me for example, while I could have been far more successful in life if I'd had certain things go better, become less agreeable, and more open, I would NEVER have been able to be a performer, athlete, or artist. My tendency toward INTP showed up very young, as I valued puzzle games as early as 2, taught myself to read at 3 and a half, and figured out what people call Common Core math when I was 8. I also have been clumsy, socially awkward, and completely unartistic since the very beginning. I didn't push myself to learn to walk until after I was a year old, and it was only because I pulled a lamp over on myself and broke my arm that I got up and walked. How INTP is that?
Some things in the Big 5 can change. People can work at being less agreeable, more contentious, and more open, they can't work on changing how they define truth or right or work to be more intuitive. There might be subtle changes in someone's MBTI type over time, but it is not going to change much.
I remember watching the movie together with my whole family when I was about 9. At that age I didn't understand the depth of the meaning of the story, however I do remember very clearly the groundbreaking effect it had on me and what seemed like the whole world since it came out!
