I don’t agree with this take at all. Agent Smith was definitely evil, the machines were victims of capitalist exploitation, which they just turned right around on humanity once they took charge.
I suppose that point is mostly explored in the sequels though.
The Matrix being predicated on a climate disaster is also entirely lost, along with nonconformity in general.
Also AI is evil although that was like the main plot point

Animatrix goes into this concept pretty in depth. Don’t know if that is considered fanfiction or correct Matrix lore.
