Then I choose ignorance as it's bliss while life is hell.

Edit: I find it offensive that the commenter I replied to insinuates that there's any transphobia in my comment.

Attitudes like this is why I'd rather do my transition alone that surrounded by the mainstream trans community.

And thats why the choice matters. Morpheus didn't rip him out. There were too pills, youre free to choose the other.

Morpheus didn't give him all the facts and rushed him into a decision before giving him the chance to process what little information he was given.

That's not a choice. That's a con-job.

Ah right right, the movie would have flowed better if he was given a course on existentialism and a detailed recount of life on the outside.

How about a quick. "Hey. Just so you know, we live in sewers and eat gruel. Now make your choice."
