war without guns

After watching the Presidential Killing Bureau, I really feel that it is impossible for me to be in politics and I don't want to be in politics!
It is not difficult to see a big cycle from the film. When the presidential candidate speaks, he most often mentions that he will represent the wishes, ideas and ideals of the people of a certain country. Will be loyal and principled for the general public to ask for orders and solve all problems! !
But the truth! ? What I can see from the male protagonist is that what if he has the ability! ? What if there is love and ambition! ? The result! ? It is not something that can be achieved according to his own wishes. The reality is always the reality. He sacrificed his principles, his love and even his lover, and his loyalty and friends. Without principles, without loyalty, only indifference without any personal feelings can get him what he wants! The so-called political victory!
What an ironic cycle, but it's very true, people are like this, and so is society!
After watching the film, I really feel how single and corrupt Chinese politics is!

The Ides of March quotes

  • Tom Duffy: Do yourself a favor. Get out, now. While you still can. Go into entertainment or business, go open a fucking restaurant in Costa Rica. Anything. Do something that's gonna make you happy, okay? Cause you stay in this business long enough, you're going to get jaded and cynical.

    Stephen Meyers: Like you?

    Tom Duffy: Yeah, just like me!

  • Stephen Meyers: If you want to be president, you can start a war, you can lie, you can cheat, you can bankrupt the country, but you can't fuck the interns. They'll get you for that.
