“The Matrix” is a sci-fi action film where a computer hacker named Neo discovers the world he lives in is actually a simulated reality. Machines have enslaved humanity, keeping their bodies plugged in to harvest their energy while their minds are trapped in a dreamlike program called the Matrix. Neo is recruited by rebels who believe he is "The One," someone with the power to bend the Matrix and free humanity. The film explores themes of reality, free will, and defying limitations.

Once in a while the UKposts algorithm drops some gold in my feed. This channel is criminally undersubscribed. Subbed.

When u realize there is no real choice. At the end Neo did what he was meant to do…go back to the source

The difference is that Neo was destined to fulfill his purpose, as for us, we have free will and can choose.

Destiny* good video. "Because i choose to." Is also my favorite quote from the trilogy.

I believe Neo was fighting for external reasons because he made a deal with the machines to attain peace between them and humans.

In high end philosophy among the non-religious it's mostly agreed that free will doesn't exist or some redefined version of free will exists that the average person wouldn't agree is free will. They're called compatabilists.

He was destined to, but he always had the choice whether or not to. As was mentioned in The Matrix Reloaded by the Merovingian, there have been multiple "ones" before Neo. We can be destined to do anything, but are given the choice whether to fulfill that destiny. He was always in control.

@@colbybrasher9300In Neo's case, he needed to understand his purpose to accept it or not fulfill it.

I see the whole movie as a battle between the soul and the ego. It´s about awakening to who you really are. The free will of the human ego is an illusion as it is under the soul´s free will which is predetermined. When Neo chose Trinity it wasn´t free will (although it looks like it to the human mind), they represent what twin flames are. Twin flames are one energetically, they are mirror souls. So he saved humanity by choosing himself actually

That's an interesting thought
