The idea of ​​the architect is to let the rich, the middle class and the poor live happily together through perfect rules.
At the beginning, the building has sufficient resources, all facilities are normal, and the world is peaceful.
However, the good times did not last long, and resources began to run short. In order to seize resources, various classes in the building inevitably clashed. In the end, blood flowed into rivers.
How similar is this plot to the replacement of dynasties in human history! ! It can be said that it almost reflects the class struggle in human history.
So, has the society after the struggle ended changed because of the struggle? The phrase "Now, everything is back to normal." at the end of the film suggests that nothing has changed. The old class will be overthrown, and the new class will take its place, and then a new round of social stratification will begin, and then the class will be solidified. When the economy is booming and declining and resources are in short supply, class contradictions will appear again, and when the contradictions are irreconcilable, they will fight each other, the old class will be pushed down, and the new class will come up and start the next cycle!

It can be said that the social stratification is endless, and the class struggle is endless.

    I really want to spit on those Higgins fans who say that Swift is not worthy of Higgins, look at how bad this movie is! Swift is a singer-songwriter with seven Grammys in his hand, and Higgins takes out his masterpieces other than Rocky.
