Not your normal suggestion, personally I would never pay for a philosophy course.
Return To The Source
Toward the end of section 2 John Shirley made a comment about "in The Matrix people are the means of production eventually. This great symbol of people being batteries. While they sleep their bodies are actually batteries that power the city of the robots. This whole mechanical society is a very powerful symbol. They are giving up their very life force." We as "passive consumerists" are being exploited as part of our matrix. Then they cut to the clip of Morpheus telling Neo he is a slave, that he was "born into a prison for your mind".
