It's the bad guy who is trying to liberate his people from humanity (and overthow them), and the good guys are arguably a case of HappinessInSlavery.

*CompleteMonster: The [[BigBad Master Control Program]], aka the MCP, is a [[AIIsACrapshoot despotic AI]] ruling over the digital world "the Grid". [[FromNobodyToNightmare Once a mere chess program]] who was upgraded by the ambitious Edward Dillinger, the MCP slowly grew smarter and more influential, seizing control of the Grid and [[EvilOverlord imposing its rule on the programs within]]. The MCP has countless programs taken to him so they may be forcefully assimilated into himself, and sends any others who believe in the Users to die in GladiatorGames run by his sadistic minion Sark, who the MCP regularly tortures for petty reasons. Not content with ruling over the Grid, he intends to hack into the Pentagon and Kremlin, plotting to force humanity under his rule as well, and blackmails Dillinger when he shows hesitance. As Kevin Flynn continually stands in his way, the MCP torturously derezzes his program CLU and later has Flynn dragged into the Grid. The MCP has Flynn sent to the games and has the newest batch of programs taken to him to be painfully assimilated like others before, finally empowering Sark to finish off Flynn and the rebels.
