Of course Neo's choice didn't include the grisly details of the utopian world he'd get if he picked red. It was simply a choice between the truth and a dream.
If I had Neo's choice I'd definitely go with red. I've always been motivated to understand what 'this' is that we're experiencing. Hell I'd jump at the opportunity.
But if I was forewarned that the truth would be uncomfortable, ugly and require massive heroic effort .. well then I don't know. First I would probably be suspicious as I am with all conspiracy/things-are-not-what-they-seem scenarios.
If they managed to convince me of the nature of the reality I'd be getting, then I might have to go with choice C. They'd never convince me that I was the messiah and I do like my creature comforts.
