I see The Matrix trilogy (soon to be an, uh, quadrilogy) as an absolutely pivotal element in the Great Awakening of humanity -- the film literally introduced and defined the term Red Pill. That isn't to say the Q team or any other particular group was part of it; truly awake people have written plays, novels, movies, and so on that exposed that the elites have us seeing a warped version of reality in different ways, for centuries. The Emperor's New Clothes was published by Hans Christian Anderson in 1837, for instance.

The Wachowskis created something much more detailed and emotionally powerful, however. In The Matrix, the premise is that mankind has been imprisoned in a carefully-crafted dreamworld. This false world has been created by intelligent machines solely for the machines' benefit. Neo (Keanu Reeves), the protagonist of The Matrix, terrifies the machines because he threatens to show mankind what the machines don't want people to see: that humanity has been literally enslaved by means of an illusion broadcast into people's minds.

This put the idea that the elite control the masses by means of a pervasive and carefully-designed web of lies into wide public discourse. It wasn't a new idea, but the Wachowskis popularized it and thrust the topic of systematic information- and opinion-control into the foreground. There were too many points of similarity between the Wachowskis' fictional Matrix and the cruelty and mendacity of our real-world corporatist elite (corporations and government acting together in corrupt, mutual self-interest) for audiences to ignore. The topic also leaked out to millions who never saw the film but read or heard discussions of it, on and off the web.

The Matrix was the surprise hit of 1999 – a box-office phenomenon with a worldwide gross of over $463 million, not adjusted for inflation, from a production budget of only $63 million. The two sequels, The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions, brought in almost $1.2 billion. The Matrix also became the best-selling DVD of all time.

Today, 22 years later, The Matrix is constantly referenced in discussions about the Great Awakening, the Cabal, and so on. The term Red Pill is known to billions. In contrast, how many other movies from the late 1990s can you even name?

Nietzsche pointed out that we cannot talk about something we don't have a word for. The Matrix provided both a name for our situation and a chillingly well-aligned, detailed, and engaging metaphor for it.

Without The Matrix, I don't believe we'd be anywhere near as far along as we are now.
