The Matrix is a trans allegory and even the actors dont realize
Disclaimer, I'm fairly inebriated. Autocorrect is doing heavy lifting.
Watching startalk with Lawrence Fishbourne and Neil Degrasse Tyson talking about The Matrix. They are trying to show religious (christian) associations through the movie. The talk came out last year; wayyyy after the creators came out publicly.
Like fuck. Its a trans allegory. It always has been. I first saw The Matrix when I was 7. It resonated deeply with me ever since then, albeit I never knew why until my egg cracked. But holy shit. It fits perfectly. This movie resonated significantly more than "I Saw The TV Glow" for me. The fucking creators are trans! This isnt that deep where we need to scower the bible for references. I can watch the entire first one and find almost non-stop associations with my own life. Holy shit cis people are in denial.
Thank you for coming to my drunken 4pm PST ted talk.
