   In the passage Red pill or blue pill: Is ignorance Bliss? author talks about the connection between two main characters from the movies Matrix and Alice's adventures. Alice in Wonderland  for their resemblance between the real world and wonders, in these films, as symbols of Neo and Alice were confused by the fact that real and what is not real.  Allegory of the Cave of the story is also a lot of these concepts films in which characters in the allegory of the cave were chained their necks and legs in a cave filled with only darkness. When one  prisoners escaped he saw the light  and was embarrassed because he knew only darkness. The darkness was only the truth as  The Matrix was the only true Neo thought he knew, although he felt different and got a chance to get out of the matrix  know the real truth, and how our minds are trained to believe that we want to believe.
