    Yeah but its the 90s. At that time, my oma bought a house in a nice neighborhood and set up a retirement plan on an American teachers salary. In the south.

      Wasn’t that explicitly mentioned in the film, that that is the best time in civilization?

          Which is why the Matrix was redesigned to this: the peak of your civilization. I say “your” civilization, because as soon as we started thinking for you it really became “our” civilization, which is of course what this is all about.

          Me in 1999: Haha, good joke, things will get even better.

          Me in 2026: Damn, how right they were.

                Wouldn’t it be the same Zion? Pretty sure the one in the Matrix got its name from the Jewish/Christian one. And I believe it even is meant as an allegory for Jerusalem.

        No, not the best time, just the last time in humans where actually in charge before everything started to be controlled by machines.
