The challenge here is that many reach a false high of knowledge. They break out of the system and go knee-jerk contrarian. The whole meme of blue pill vs red pill assumes there is some clear higher truth. Remember, Morpheus who presented the red pill so assuredly to Neo, was utterly confused and in doubt by the end of the second movie, when it turned out that even his understanding was but a middle layer toward the truth. Always be a seeker. Stay humble, stack insight. View quoted note →

I look at “higher truths” as an interpersonal perspective that individual’s recognize and learn to apply towards the change growing their experience and giving them the power to share. But truths are not to be forced, or believed to be stagnant. They alter with time and should only applied when acted on. We are on a continuum journey of finding a balance, that leads us to onward and upward growth. Truths are a mirage when forced.

Wise words. Can always rely on Lyn for balanced pragmatism, 🙌
By that he meant, they might not be ready to understand his truth. The truth normalized across Zion. And then he himself was blindsided by the deeper truth.

I took it to mean they would be a danger to themselves and others as a result of rejecting the truth. Sort of like psychosis.

Neo never escaped the Matrix, though.
