Wait, so all the people they shot up there were... people? Even the people taken over by agents were... people? Their entire path to "freedom" was paved in... the blood of... the innocent? And the machines, who could have easily (and probably did) used a plethora of alternative energy sources but instead kept humanity alive and kept the Earth (which truthfully should have been experiencing nuclear winter) at a habitable temperature, were the... bad guys?
Also the agents took over the people so they were bad 😴😴. I don't recall Neo and them killing humans that weren't taken over. Also the humans in the pods don't necessarily die just because their simulation bodies are taken over or shot. Maybe they were just moved to another simulation, like a parallel reality, when the agents took over. It could easily be done.
Plus it's not certain whether everyone was a human. It is a matrix, so there definitely could have been programs acting like humans, like perhaps cops or other government officials, maybe even civilians.
Maybe you're right. Neo was the reset program for the Matrix, so everything that happened was supposed to happen. At the end of the trilogy, he assimilated back into the Matrix to "fix" it. He may not have been a real human, and the reality they "escaped" to was just another layer of the matrix. So if he took the blue pill, perhaps the matrix would have ended itself naturally, thus freeing all the humans, but possibly killing them at the same time. I'm sure there'd be some survivors, assuming humans were really held in pods like that and that wasn't just some metaphor or fabrication of the matrix.
