History is always surprisingly similar, no matter which country, there are always some similar experiences, Han's, Yi's, Afhan's, never, mine...
Forced acupuncture, deceived under some guise, forced indoctrination in the name of Xinyang, Guo Jiazhili, what is freedom at all? People guess and supervise each other, and the sense of resistance is gradually wiped out. Just like the rebellious people in the play at the beginning, they are not obedient and obedient. Otherwise, there will be countless pains. This is a comparison. Who is more empowered, has a stun stick in hand, can do whatever they want, the maids have experienced fear, numbness, giving up resistance, despair, rekindling hope, regaining the courage to go out alive and later maids war.
I don't think it's a simple feminist issue. It's a human being born with the right to live and the right to die, not to mention equality between men and women.
