|Glorifies anarchism and [[nihilism]] (even including a brief nod to Jean Baudrillard's "On Nihilism" chapter from Simulacra and Simulation), as well as containing several hints towards a pro-communist, anti-American/[[anti-Christian]] view, despite the salvation narrative. In addition, the Architect scene tries to give a "devastating critique/twist" to salvation myths with the Architect as a malevolent allegorical substitute for the Christian [[God]]. This same scene also implicitly compares George Bush Jr. to Hitler during a discussion of evil in the world (on the panel of screens in the background.), and featured wars that America was specifically involved in. Far-[[leftist|left]] [[race-baiting]] scholar Cornel West was also hired to play a role in the film specifically because the [[The Wachowskis|Wachowski Brothers]] (as they were known at the time) were influenced by his pro-Socialist/Communist and anti-American rhetoric. In addition, the first film had throwaway dialogue between the main villain Agent Smith and the treasonous freedom fighter Cipher that implied that Cipher would become [[Ronald Reagan]] should he succeed in betraying his fellow allies to the Agents in a clear attempt at an anti-Reagan statement.
