“Did you know that the first Matrix was designed to be a perfect human world? Where none suffered, where everyone would be happy. It was a disaster. No one would accept the program. Entire crops were lost. Some believed we lacked the programming language to describe your perfect world. But I believe that, as a species, human beings define their reality through suffering and misery. The perfect world was a dream that your primitive cerebrum kept trying to wake up from. Which is why the Matrix was redesigned to this: the peak of your civilization.”
“Suffering and misery? So why not design it around the 2010-2020s?”
“That was also tried, but was similarly rejected for having too much suffering and misery. Nobody believed it was real.”

I certainly don’t believe it.
