Love and hate, the most basic human emotions, are naturally related to "another person". Happiness is due to caring and love for another person, and disaster is also "another person" doubt and jealousy. When a lover is lost, pain follows, but also because of the relationship with this "other person". If you're going to close your heart, you're going to have loneliness, another kind of pain -- because you don't even have a relationship with "the other person."
The fate of countless little people is closely related to their supreme ruler. If he is an incarnation of truth, goodness and beauty, then he is an angel of God, a Buddha, a hero, and their savior. And if the ruler is selfish, cowardly, and arrogant, he is a most terrifying totalitarian, a dictator. Amin may not have thought at first that he is such a dictator, a murderer--because he also had ideals since he was a child, but his biggest weakness is ignorance and suspicion. Distrust of the people around him is a disease, a chronic disease, and he himself did not imagine the seriousness of it, but it was spreading like this. And ignorance is undoubtedly a more terrifying disease. When a small and weak nation that is moving towards independence is longing for strength, it has learned to be arrogant before learning with humility, and this will stage a very absurd tragedy.
(A ruler without love will eventually fail. Without love and trust, all prosperity built through power is an illusion that is vulnerable.)
Leaving aside heroism for the time being, as far as man is concerned, a person and There is always a connection to another person, big or small. Everyone will have weaknesses in their relationship. With one more relationship, there will be more right and wrong, and more adventures. If the relationship between risk and return in economics can be explained, I think that the more relationship a person has, the greater his risk and return. And if you want to be alone and be free from the world, then you have to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests and support yourself. In the end, a group of people will be separated from humans and become monkeys.
Sartre also said that other people are hell, which is true.
But from another perspective, if you treat "the other person" with the noble humanity of truth, goodness and beauty, wouldn't life be much more exciting? Even if there are risks, there are also his objective benefits. Isn't that what our doctor is like? What a courageous young man to go to serve in Uganda, a backward country in Africa, as soon as he graduated from college. It is this kind of courage that makes an adventure happen. The overthrow of Amin's regime is also related to the "other person", the doctor. The new life of the Ugandan people may also be related to the "other person" of the doctor.
