The beginning of the film refers directly to the existing public education system in the United States, and selects a very ordinary high school to start the story. This high school has the same characteristics as other public high schools in the United States. Self-exiled students, corrupt and ineffective school leaders, follow the trend. In the film, the public high schools in the United States are satirized by the teachers of the United States for nothing, and the place where people think of teaching and educating people has become a gathering place for hiding dirt and bad students in the future. The protagonist of the story, Campbell, is an ordinary English teacher at the high school. He is cowardly and sophisticated. Under the pressure of family and career, he has to choose to be splinted between the student and the principal. The student in class drew the second child on his classroom blackboard, but he had to endure it silently. Campbell is like an ordinary image of a middle-aged blue-collar worker who has been rubbed out by society. Although he is not reconciled to the oppression of life, he lacks the courage to resist. However, another teacher named Strickland changed his normal life trajectory. Strickland is a history teacher in the school. He is in sharp contrast with Campbell. He is serious, majestic, traditional, and lawless students are as good as a rat in front of him. He severely suppressed the school's dudes, and hated the school's corrupt leaders, let alone his inactive colleagues. However, one day, these two diametrically opposed people caused a sensation in the United States because of a trivial matter, which is the subject of this film. One day in class, Strickland smashed the perpetrator’s desk with an ax because he couldn’t stand the endless class disturbances by the students, so the two sat at the principal’s desk and did something about it Explain. The bottomless pranks of the students and the grievances of the teachers failed to attract the attention of the school leaders. The teacher had to explain when he broke the desk, and the two faced the embarrassing situation of one being fired. This also reflects the current situation of American society. Disciplinary students are considered to hinder the development of students' free nature, and teachers' impulsive actions may bring them to court for abusing students. Of course, our protagonist, the cowardly Campbell, chose to expose Strickland, so Strickland and Campbell formed a relationship, and declared that the school parking lot would be scheduled to end at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. So Campbell did his best to avoid this beating, which is also the climax of the film. After a hearty fight, the two finally resolved their conflicts, but they also lost their jobs. However, Campbell finally fought against the bloody and heavy reality in this matter. Although his courage caused him to lose his job, he also won back the trust and love of his daughter and his wife, as well as the respect of his students and colleagues.
In the United States, there have always been two traditions, one is the radical liberalism that promotes equality, fraternity, and freedom, and the other is the conservative liberalism that promotes orderly discipline, morality, and tradition. Since the victory of the Cold War in the United States, American ideology has swept the world, and the spirit of liberalism has been overly promoted in the United States, so that a kind of pathological political correctness has formed in the United States today. For example, black people say that nigra is racial discrimination, and black must be said. American and LGBT are also politically correct. Multicultural and diverse religions cannot be challenged. The rights of minorities are elevated to the highest position. Challenges to the above political correctness are even seen as a violation of the founding principles and the spirit of the founding father. The Americans have been repressed in this social atmosphere for more than a decade. The conservative traditional Americans, the Midwestern farmers, the blue-collar workers from the bottom of the rust belt dare not speak, but the election of Trump seems like The American people can't bear political correctness and make the biggest joke. The anger of Americans also erupted with the election of Trump, and this outbreak even partially evolved into extreme populism, which in turn endangered the health of American society. However, most Americans are really calm, just like Strickland in a boxing fight. The reason why he chose Campbell’s airbag is to allow him to regain his dignity, and at the same time to add to the traditional and decadent public education system in an extreme way. Go to war to arouse public attention. Because Americans have had enough of the shackles of political correctness, although political correctness is indeed the right thing to oppose discrimination against homosexuality and respect minorities, if it is overcorrected, anything correct will become a disaster. And it is these overcorrections that these traditional Americans are fighting against. They want to break the stereotypes, create new thinking, and create a new order. By the way, I think that the reason why the United States is strong lies in the continuous progress and innovative vitality of this society. Just like these Americans, they don’t care about being No. 1 in the world, politically correct, and even more so. Pay attention to the fairness, justice, and true equality around us, as well as the real improvement of life. These are everything they rely on to maintain, and they never lack the will and courage to use force to maintain and reshape him. This is also the driving force of the American spirit. If a nation can always maintain the vigorous and upward momentum of the early days of the founding of the country, dare Questioning all courage, vigorous curiosity, and inexhaustible desire for exploration, then this nation will surely stand on top of the world someday. The United States is such a nation, such as a group of baby boomers in the 1960s. His own maverick approach countered those values that had been fixed during World War II, dedicated to the country, and endured hardships and hard work. The new society is also being reshaped and finalized. The United States has also rejuvenated after experiencing stagflation in the 1970s, and has made solid preparations for the complete defeat of the Soviet Union in the 1980s and the dominance of the world.
The United States is such a magical country. To borrow a word from an expert in the field of international relations, generally speaking, world hegemonies tend to keep and maintain the status quo, while the United States is willing to destroy the status quo and reshape order. This may be related to the original The spirit of the cowboy who is endlessly running and unrestrained within the nation also has a great relationship, just like Campbell and Strickland in the boxing fight of the century. If there is anything wrong, don’t BB, see you after school, fist say!
