Purpose as chain and engine
@Saikou Barry The purpose as a Constraint: “We are not here because we are free. We are here because we are not free. There is no escaping reason, no denying purpose because as we both know, without purpose, we would not exists.” 🤣 My man Smith is salty ! He was unplugged and he didn't like it too much.

@Carmel Raff You don't seem to understand the word "COMPELLED"... fighting is infact all he did; but it only made him remain more in the prison

@Stephen Stone-Bush I guess that's your pov of the situation. But my understanding is that "He was compelled", There's no such thing as choice in the movie ... if you had followed the conversation between the oracle and Neo after he asks if he can have free will, she clearly tells him "You have already made the choice, but you are here to understand why he made it". The same thing goes for Smith, as he said "We are not here because we are free, we are here because we are not free". Neo was compelled to remain in the matrix and execute exactly what he did in order to help Neo reach the higher levels that he did... As you said he is the opposite of Neo, and the oracle said to Neo that Smith was him... Smith couldn't break his role in that chain and chose another path, reason why he said "He was Compelled"

Ranking Report #5 + Announcement
Last week, we were 387 Today we are 347. We jumped 40 places up. And moving upwards. So thanks to you all for your presence. We should break into the #300 soon. I've been thinking about the story and the development of it for the new year and honestly, I didn't like how I was doing things. So, I'm changing them a bit. That is why a lot of things were slow. I got a lot to learn.

Imagine it’s a year from now and you are watching a CGI movie from Manden Oath Universe.
As well as being a illustrator, I'm a huge fan of movies. And as I am developping this world, I was wondering if you guys will be interested in seeing the behind the scene of a movie from Manden Oath, if I happen to work on one. I have been inspired by this movie NIMROD, you're seeing down there. I'm curious to hear your thoughts about that idea.

Morale necessity when you have hierachy
In Starship Troopers, society is simple: if you do your military service, even if it's against giant Arachnids, you become a Citizen. You gain the right to vote, to have children, etc. Otherwise? You remain a Civilian, without any real powers. It's a strange society, though, where throughout, people never questioned the reason for the attack on the Arachnids. Kinda similar to some armies we can find around the world where soldiers are asked to do questionable things and they don't reject the orders. I always found it fascinating in the least. Will you reject an order if they ask you to do something contrary to your values ?

🌌 Master Obi-Wan's Lesson: When Truth Depends on Point of View!
"What I told you was true, from a certain point of view." 🧘 This is Obi-Wan Kenobi's iconic line to justify why he told Luke that Darth Vader had killed his father, even though Vader is his father. It's manipulation, yes, but it's also an incredible lesson in mindset! In life, this phrase reveals two essential things: Your Truth Is Not Universal: What is true for you (your experience, your fear, your way of doing business) is not necessarily true for others (your clients, your partners). Mindset Is Just an Angle: Being able to change your perspective is the first step to success. If your strategy isn't working, it might be because you haven't yet found the angle (the perspective) that will make it true and effective. The Jedi call this flexibility. So, what perspective is holding you back right now?
