What does rebellion mean, the light or darkness of humanity?
In fact, this is a very pessimistic story. Isn't the method that Lelouch used to deal with the enemy exactly the idea of the Britannia royal family's infighting? The strong prey on the weak and the fittest survive, no matter how many people sacrifice, as long as they are not the people closest to them, all these sacrifices are worth it.
From the perspective of Lelouch: First, eliminate the so-called tyranny, bring permanent peace, and bring a beautiful world to my sister. And this road is the road of Shura, which is piled up with lives and heads. Such a dangerous idea is hidden under the banner of national liberation, and the reckless use of violence will eventually be counterattacked by violence. This is the fate that Lelouch cannot escape. From the perspective of human history, whether it is to rise up to resist or obediently obey, countless people must die for it.
Lelouch was too accustomed to using power and took it for granted. He didn't know that power was a double-edged sword. It not only involved ordinary people, but also brought disaster to the fish pond. In the end, it involved all friends and relatives. It is not a matter of courage and determination to go all the way to the dark, but a complete degeneration and falling into the abyss.
Lelouch represents the complexity of human nature, but his vague moral judgments and complete madness are not worthy of encouragement, nor are they human truths, and the righteous partners are just self-satisfied self-talk.
Worshiping the strong is dangerous, but people still yearn for protection, salvation, and hope from the strong, so much so that they cling to violence and finally be buried with him.
What should not be done is to persist in the end, that is stubbornness, and not determined to do what should be done is indecisive. Believe in what you are doing, and make sense of it, and you can see this resolute force is so fierce, like an escaped beast tyrannizing around. And so successful, you may not be able to afford this success at any cost.
The consciousness of sacrificing everything is even more dangerous. Since everything that one loves and covets can be sacrificed, it is not surprising to regard human life as a must.
The rebellious Lelouch brought a torn apart, mutual hatred, and devastated country.
