We were all pretty sure we live in the Matrix anyway. Doesn’t that explain deja vu and rainbows or whatever?
Now we have definitive artistic proof that the Matrix is real, and only those that read tons of books ever get it. As this artist rendition shows, reading books makes you more knowledgeable about the world around you in the form of a giant book ladder that lets you climb up and see the real world outside of our digitized quasi-reality.
As you can see in the work, a man who has been reading books for, like, a couple of months or so now has a handy ladder of knowledge that he can stand on to see the world for what it really is, while the other guy, who apparently has never read a book in his life, just stands banging his head against a concrete wall.
