Can I violate you?

Darkness, what is darkness? Or what is the biggest obstacle and harm to a person who is walking along the trajectory of his own life?
In this film, the darkness comes from someone around you, someone's aggression combined with deep human needs and animal instincts, aggression against the person he thinks can be violated, that is, you. would you ask? Why would it be me? Because at the moment when his heart was soft, he took off his mask like you and used it to face the bleak life. Unfortunately, you also showed your most vulnerable point like him. So, you succeeded in establishing a kind and weak image in his heart.
When the tortured face beyond recognition is seen, it will first change from self-pity to needing pity and care from others. This person can only be you. Who let you see him under the mask? The kind-hearted you comforted him. After receiving the comfort, he will want to climb out of the predicament further, just like a person struggling in the water, he will try to ask you to help him make up his unrecognizable face. The price is to use a portion of your life to crystallize. Of course, you will not agree that what you have pursued with your life is all you have, how can you give it to others casually? Although you are kind, although he is indeed pitiful, even if you cannot help him, you will feel sad. But don't underestimate the deep animal nature of human nature. If you don't give anything to be afraid of, I can grab it. After grabbing it, he found that his body couldn't bear this face, and he couldn't easily give it back to you. He felt that he had become a bad person. If he gave it to you, wouldn't he become a good person again? Maybe you can't understand why he's like this, just like he can't understand himself, not even a policeman.
You don't have to understand why this happens, it's our nature as a creature. The reason I'm not like this sometimes is just because you haven't been so lucky, you haven't seen the unrecognizable face under my mask, and I don't see you as a kind and weak person who can be violated.
