That's a left-wing journal, and a professor seriously trying to use the Matrix films to guide policy debates over public education.
A guess. It seems some Anarchists believe Utopia will naturally come about when all governments are eliminated. Anarchy is just the means, with the same ends as Marxism.

Replying here to show that, if this article or any sources CaptDavis posted here didn’t prove that the first Matrix movie, let alone the second and third movies were Marxist propaganda, Larry (or rather, “Lilly”) blatantly confirms it in this article as well as basically her roundabout way of ranting about being born male instead of female: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-8399919/Keanu-Reeves-reveals-agreed-Matrix-4-Lana-Wachowski-wrote-beautiful-script.html
Specifically, “Detailing how she felt making films helped her journey of self discovery, Lilly said the trilogy was ‘born out of a lot of anger and a lot of rage, and it’s rage at capitalism and corporatized structure and forms of oppression.’”
Whoops, sorry. THIS is the article confirming this bit:
