Andrew Tate claims people obey the 'Matrix' as 'it satisfies their ego', Internet says he's 'just weirded out'

'Those who still trust the news are too far gone to be saved,' a fan of Andrew Tate said

BUCHAREST, ROMANIA: Andrew Tate, the controversial social media figure, is known for openly critiquing the entity, which he refers to as the "Matrix."

In one of his recent posts on X (formerly Twitter), Tate took the opportunity to criticize individuals who place their trust in the "Matrix," asserting that they perceive its actions as beneficial.

Andrew Tate shares his perspective on why people believe in the 'Matrix'

Andrew Tate often shares his belief that he is in an unconventional conflict with the established system called the "Matrix." The influencer also frequently lets his followers know how the entity is trying to manipulate the populace to align with its agenda rather than considering their well-being.

Furthermore, he boldly claims that the "Matrix" displays bias against truth-tellers, using his own experiences as evidence of this inequitable treatment.

Within his post, Tate delved deeper into his observation, explaining that individuals comply with the "Matrix" primarily due to the perception that they are exercising independent thought. This phenomenon, he suggested, caters to the ego by providing a sense of self-direction.

Tate drew a parallel by highlighting scenarios where individuals dismiss their elders' timeless wisdom in favor of cultivating supposedly "independent" ideas. These notions, however, are often influenced by the viewpoints propagated through television and other media sources, as per the contentious influencer.

"The reason people obey the Matrix is that they believe they are thinking for themselves. It satisfies the ego. When a peon’s father tries to pass down ancient wisdom, The peon ignores him to foster “independent” thoughts. The independent thoughts they heard on television," read Tate's post on X (formerly Twitter).

Following Tate's expression of his perspectives regarding the reasons behind people's belief in the entity called the "Matrix," numerous X (formerly Twitter) users stepped forward to share their viewpoints.

One user wrote, "Many of our parents are hopelessly addicted to mainstream media. Especially baby boomers !" "Blindly following the Matrix, the ego takes control, while ancient wisdom falls unheard, drowned by the noise of the world," stated another, reiterating Tate's points.

"Naww dude your just lil weirded out you know all that thinking," said one, as a user added, "Those who still trust the news are too far gone to be saved. Some people are so reliant on the slave system that they will fight to defend it."
