Life within the Matrix

Is life within the Matrix really that bad?... Are the machines that control the Matrix truly evil?

One can make the argument that the Matrix is indeed a good (pleasant) thing for humans, as their situation could be much worse... The reality for humans is that they are a source food, and futhermore destine for death.

The Matrix was created to disguise this reality and give the humans a better life (perception), rather than live in a conscious state during thier days of proliferation. Thus, it appears the machines created the Matrix to give the humans a better way of life... It's like humans allowing cows to roam the fields and enjoy life, rather than keep them trapped within a cage.:confused:

Well i agree with you that the matrix isnt all that bad but still once you find out about the "real world" wouldnt that put u down i mean just to think that bacically your whole life has been a lie and nothing really happened since the matrix is just a simulation of whatv the real wold use to be.

Good point... If I knew of the truth (the "real world") I would want to be set free... I would do everything to put up a fight to beat the machines... rather than accept that I am thier food...

Unplugged too....just the thought of living a lie your whole life would just somehow take away from the fun aspect of it...
