Fear always work. Fear always work.
Under normal circumstances, people always make choices that tend to be rational. While striving for their own interests, they try their best to ensure their own moral standards and rules of conduct. Taking advantage of morality can help them gain the upper hand in the long-term game. However, there is one situation that can overthrow this normality, and that is fear. In the face of fear, people will lose their rationality, will be willing to sacrifice everything, and will be willing to break through all bottom lines. When fear is real, these stressful behaviors can help us to overcome difficulties, but when fear is concocted and false, then fear can be the rein on our neck, and we will become others’ Dogs, help those who create fear to bite their enemies. We no longer need freedom and rationality, we just need someone to tell us who is responsible for our fears.
Fear always work. 911 brought real fear to Americans, and the whole process was like a fictional disaster film. Multiple planes were hijacked at the same time and rushed towards different iconic targets. So, after undergoing a transformation similar to Harvey, they look for someone responsible for their fears. At this time, you don't need to be rational, you just need someone to tell them the answer. So, just as Harvey can kidnap Gordon’s family, they no longer have a bottom line and no moral standards. Through fear, rulers can not only declare war to the outside world and kill civilians at will, but they can also monitor their own people without scruple and deprive them of their freedom at will. And it is them who call themselves freedom guards.
So, the question is, how to avoid being manipulated with fear? Information transparency and mutual understanding. Information transparency allows both sides of the game to make correct predictions of dangers and avoid them early. Mutual understanding on this basis can fundamentally eliminate fear, because the nature of animals makes us inherently fearful of unknown people and things. The mutual understanding between people is the starting point of this film.
The film was made very obscure, and it was very depressing to watch. However, he told a story about making friends in a place where it is least possible for people to understand each other. They have never veiled their faces but are at odds with each other, and getting along day and night makes the protagonist doubt all this. The supervised person has no charge, no sentence, no relatives, and no hope. In the end, it was your heroine who told him that he was a good man. It was a glimmer of fire in the ice cellar, which gave the hero a life-saving straw he had never gotten.
The heroine is gone, and Harry Potter is found for the hero, ending with a 24/7 patrol. Let you realize that this beautiful story is just a moment of their long life in captivity. There is no happy ending, but this little friendship is already precious.
As individuals, people can understand each other. I think this is the director's greatest goodwill towards the world. In contrast, the seemingly magnificent "freedom guards" failed to protect their own freedom, the freedom of Americans, and the freedom of these innocent people who are regarded as terrorists.
