I read "Education" before this movie, so when I saw Captain Fantastic's education to his children, I immediately thought of the farm between the mountains in the book.
Put aside all or-no-politics and talk about education.
Is being "special" enough to be a philosopher really the best education for a child? Is public collective education really worthless? What kind of people are we going to train? The children of Captain Marvel gave a reference answer: living in the jungle, they may be kings; living in society, they will only be crushed to pieces by any wisdom and ignorance.
You can't just tout material things, and you can't just live in utopian conceptual knowledge. The film contrasts the three children's thoughts on the Bill of Rights and the daughter's fall from the villa, and sums it up with nothing more than the older brother's words: "I don't know anything about the world if it's not written in a book. "That's what education is about - it's not about studying hard, and it's not about being idle, you have to know what the world looks like to see what the book is about. Education is never a compromise to any kind of politics or society, but to declare war on everything that is unreasonable and incomprehensible in this world, and is enough to support the war to the end.
I really don't want to say anything about certain political and ideological positions, as well as religious beliefs. This has become a kind of death philosophical proposition in many movies, "Who do you save when your mother and I fall into the water?" No matter which side wants to preempt the Live your own life."
