How is 'The Matrix' more like 'Handmaid's Tale' than like '1984'?

[–] xor@infosec.pub 10 points 9 months ago (1 children)

the matrix is just a sci-fi version of handmaid's tale

Whoever made it either didn't read these books or watch the movies, or they don't know how venn diagrams work.

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Could you make some kind of diagram to illustrate that?

[–] Burninator05@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

My money is in the latter.

Brazil being closer to A Handmaid's Tale than 1984, interesting.

[–] linearchaos@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Yeah I'm afraid that should have been a scatter plot. And even then I have some questions...

Lemmites have an unhealthy obsession with wanting to be in a dystopia.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Wanting to be in, or recognising we are in?
