How come Baudrillard disliked the matrix? How did it misinterpret him?

Because in the Matrix, the world is a simulation in the classical sense, i.e. not Baudrillard's concept of simulacra that infer the simulation, but just a simulation that is created directly as a simulation

Baudrillard was transphobic trash, the wachowski sisters are way more insightful as thinkers (the matrix is heteronormative white patriarchy)

Imagine if you traded away a large and precious portion of your private life to carefully craft a text and went through the nightmarish ordeal that is having it edited and published and exposed to the harsh ignorance of the world, then some stupid Hollywood dorks who smell like pretzels destroyed a copy just to make a lame pun on the title without any understanding of the actual content. And that goes, symbolically, for every work they alluded to or plagiarized from during the entire run-time of this pap for dullards. The Matrix is a terrible film and its directors are a disgrace. I am disgusted.

The matrix implies the death of the individual as there are no human individuals in the film. Every character’s sole purpose is to contribute to Neo’s development. There is nothing to them other than their relation to Neo, and consequently, Neo loses his individuality because he has no individuals to stand in relation with, making him completely undefined. It feels like a film made within the matrix

Why does it keep happening? What spells are postmodern frenchfags casting on the minds of young, moderately intelligent, men?

I never met him, too young. He married my aunt for a month so he wouldn't get deported for having an expired work visa (he was from Australia). My family says he was actually quite charismatic and funny. His acting career never took off though so I'm not sure what he's up to now

In the Matrix they can leave the simulation
