Discussion 논의 Questões de discussão Discusión

What is the Matrix?
If you were in Neo’s position, would you take the red pill or the blue pill? Why?
The correct English expression is "The wool has been pulled over your eyes." However, Morpheus says, "The world has been pulled over your eyes." Why does Morpheus make this change?
Although the terms "red-pilled" and "blue-pilled" come form the Matrix, they have taken on larger meanings connected to political, social, and philosophical beliefs.
What do you think "red-pilled" means? How about "blue-pilled"?
Can you think of a time when you realized that something you had believed for a long time was actually false? What was it? How did you deal with it?
Do you believe in fate, or do you think we control our own lives? Why?
Have you ever had a moment in which you felt something was "off" about the world but couldn’t explain why? Tell the story.
