    I get the meme but…

    The matrix itself is set in 1999 because that’s considered by the machines to be the peak of human civilization. That’s why there’s payphones.

    They’re not replacing payphones because they’re taking away you ability to escape. This is the real world before the machines take over. We’re not in the matrix. We’re pre-war with the machines.

    Looking forward to scorching the sky though lol.

      Based on all the YouTube videos about quantum physics I watch to fall asleep - I think we are already in the matrix.

      I mean holy fuck - you guys even understand quantum entanglement ? And that state of entangled particles change instantaneously galaxies apart? And that particle time travel experient. “Spooky action at the distance” and the fact Einstein was wrong about quantum - he argued against it. Spooked him too.

    Did nobody watch Matrix Resurrections? They can get out without a landline now.

    I feel like I would have accidentally gotten out of the matrix calling for someone to pick me up from the mall as a teenager.

    Maybe that’s where all those missing kids went. Fuck off Stranger Things.
