That water is red, bright red, bright red

After reading it, I was stunned. I prepared a napkin but none of it was used. For a whole minute, my mind was almost blank
. When we were playing, we started to discuss for some reason. I heard that dolphins are smarter than humans. Will they set up schools in the sea? Will they also dislike going to school like us? How do they skip classes? Of course, the most curious thing is how they view human beings. I remember chatting a lot at the time, and I felt that I had a lot of ideas and would consider such "advanced" issues, but we were so pure in thinking back then. I can't even imagine how dirty and ugly reality can be.
Then I gradually regained my consciousness and glanced at the comments of netizens. I was very surprised that I actually saw a lot of remarks scolding the Japanese. Do you really think this kind of thing is rare in China, do you really Do you think the Chinese cannot do anything more cruel than this?
How many people became a little unnatural like me when they saw the phrase "the goverment knows it the goverment covers it up"? When seeing poisonous dolphin meat being forced into students' lunches, how many people thought of the "Timamine Gate" like me? When seeing the phrase "when and where did you take this", how many people like me flashed the face of a high-ranking official who shouted "Which unit are you from?" ...
there are too many, one of the reasons why I came up with such a topic that has nothing to do with the content of the article is that the bright red color makes people easily think of China...
This is not a movie that reflects how ugly the Japanese are. The documentary is not a tool for the United States to provoke Japan, it is about how ugly we humans are.
Because we don't eat dolphins, we sympathize with dolphins and denounce eating dolphins, but imagine if this documentary was filmed on a pig slaughter farm, how many people would stop eating pork after watching it? Those are also It's all life. When it's none of our business, everyone can put on a righteous and awe-inspiring attitude...
The Japanese government told the people that dolphins eat a lot of fish, and killing dolphins is to eliminate pests, so the fishermen went, so we in front of the screen lamented their ignorance, however, XX said that Japan offended us, and we boycotted Japanese products enthusiastically. XX also said that France had offended us, and we boycotted Carrefour with righteous indignation. XX said that Iran had hacked Baidu, so we went to hack people with the benefits... What is this?
I was particularly impressed by the two sentences in the film. The first sentence is "to me you are either an activist or an inactivist". We are always saying that things are often not just right or wrong. It is absolutely impossible for people to distinguish between good and bad. Some things, even most things, really only have the distinction of doing or not doing. To do or not to do, you can only choose one, you must choose and there is no choice.
Another sentence, as the end of the article,
we have the obligation, we have the moral authority to do something about it and let it don't be said that you didin't know about it you know about it! !

The Cove quotes

  • John Potter: It sometimes amazes me that the only language which has been extensively taught to dolphins is a version of American Sign Language, which, of course, you use your hands, so you have all these wonderful signals, and people use their hands to give messages to dolphins. And this somehow kind of misses the point because dolphins don't have hands, so this is inherently a very one-way process. And it's this anthropomorphic, "We have something to teach them or control them," and perhaps we ought to be looking at what they can give to us.

  • Hardy Jones: Every cetacean known to man is endangered just by going anywhere near Japan.
