Matrix

I'd rather in any situation learn the truth, whether it hurt me or not. Being oblivious to situation that you are not happy with is living life as a lie. As in the short clip from the Matrix I would take the red pill. In life you must experience to help your knowledge of life expand. Going into the rabbit hole deeper while at the same time not knowing what it beholds is a new. People today are terrified in many instances and allow to just past by life without question the morns or situations they feel aren't right. Neo challenges these norms.
Plato's cave relates relatively close to the matrix. In Plato's story the cave is like the matrix because it appears different to each individual. Being tied down and only being able to see what is in front of you. Plato describes how a person enter's into light and a first cannot see what is exactly is in front of them but more along the lines of adapting as time passes to see. Put someone in the dark and after a month or two they will adjust to those settings. We are all imprisoned to the world. We have ideas of how we see things and everyone doesn't agree with that vision, some people choose the red pill instead of the blue pill. Everyone who takes the blue pill is only deeper imprisoning themselves to lie's and scandals that the world dishes out.
The movie shows Neo that what the world is actually showing him is a lie. Plato's cave does this to the individual in the same manner giving light through it but also dark more along the lines of tricking the mind to believing not what is actually being shown but the mask over it. Neo chooses to see the world as it is and Morphous does that for him in the clip.
