The words of Morpheus have never been more relevant:

"Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself. This is your last chance. After this there is no turning back. You take the blue pill, the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.... Remember, all I'm offering is the truth, nothing more..."

He couldn't just say, "The Matrix is a giant simulated reality, and everyone is wired into the simulation, laying there in a near coma, just thinking they have experiences."

You can't be red pilled if you reject reality. Your comment actually validates the point.

Also, see the Backfire Effect study. Your comment would actually force a blue pill.

There were a lot of logical fallacies in that movie.
