How about more recent comms? From Matrix Resurrections;
"Remake it. Knock yourselves out. Paint the sky with rainbows. But here’s the thing. The sheeple aren’t going anywhere. They like my world. They don’t want this sentimentality. They don’t want freedom or empowerment. They want to be controlled. They crave the comfort of certainty. And that means you two, back in your pods, unconscious and alone, just like them."
[both (Trinity and Neo) chuckle]
"We’re not here to negotiate anything. We were on our way to remake your world. Change a few things. I kind of like the 'paint the sky with rainbows' idea."
