"The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you're inside, you look around, what do you see? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system and that makes them our enemy. You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it."
I thought I'd share this. I saw this movie when i was little, it creeped me out, but now I realise that it was really a metaphor, and I love it! What do you guys think of it, I have only seen the first one.

For some reason, that system reminds me of capitalism.

There will be workers on the side of the bourgeois who will fight to defend bourgeois property.
