Let's start with an example. It is often said, and often goes, that if a woman is violently raped in the middle of the night, it is not the perpetrator's fault alone. Flies don't bite seamless eggs, if this woman is not revealing, how can such a thing still happen? So there was an uproar in public opinion. We can clearly see that, whether in the media or online sites, everyone has condemned the perpetrators to some extent, but more of them ridiculed and abused the victims.
Is it really so? Does it really happen as everyone thinks, must it be because of the deliberate seduction of the victim? I think it's very likely not. Yes, we can say that because of the level of clothing, the perpetrator will increase the chances of committing a crime, but this is not the motivation of the perpetrator to commit the crime. Criminal acts can be divided into passion crimes and planned crimes. Passion crime refers to impulsive, unplanned, sperm-on-the-brain actions, and the emergence of this behavior is the biggest source of clothing as mentioned earlier; while planned crime, as the name suggests, is conspiracy and targeted. implemented sensibly. On the other hand, our understanding of rape in a narrow sense only stays in the imagination of the film's performance and text, so we can't feel the impact of the crime at all. The real scene is dominated by violent blows, supplemented by physical encroachment. And the real cruel and inhumane perpetrators, even regardless of gender or age.
There are three movies we are going to talk about today: "Sowon", "The Furnace" and "A Mother's Revenge". Many people should have heard of "Sowon", which is also the notorious Korean real case: the Sowon case. As the perpetrator of this case was released from prison this year, although the photos were posted on the Internet and the public security organs also had personal criminal information such as his profile, this was not the best way to limit and control a person. "The Crucible" is based on the sexual violence that took place in a school for the deaf in Gwangju from 2000 to 2004, describing the tragedy that occurred during that time and the efforts of the school's teachers and human rights activists to uncover the background. thing. And "A Mother's Revenge" tells the story of the heroine Arya, who was raped by her classmates, and her stepmother Devitch began to avenge her daughter. The film is also based on the true events of the black bus in Delhi, India.
All three are the same in nature. The first is to use improper and criminal behavior to obtain personal satisfaction and vent anger so that the victim is harmed from the source. Second, after the victim is violated, the law at this time does not act, nor does it take measures to protect the individual's own rights from being violated. So this is not only the violent oppression of the perpetrators, but also shows the darkness of the court and the unfairness of the law.
So, let's go back to the example we gave at the beginning. Is Sowon the end result of improper clothing? No, it was a violent incident that the perpetrator had long realized or premeditated. What is truly undeniable is that he did commit a crime. But sometimes people tend to use their self-conceited rationality to look down on or ignore the truly guilty people, and zoom in on the people whose status is lower than their own or even unable to refute them. For example, the courts, police, etc. in these movies.
There is a scene in "A Mother's Revenge" that made me emotional. After the adjournment, Aaliyah's father punched the accused rapist in a rage, and was taken away by the police and the judge. Aaliyah's stepmother watched him being taken away for interrogation, and said this to the police chief: Do you understand my mood? Do you really understand my mood? A rapist with solid evidence has not been arrested. As a child's father, he was arrested just because he punched the rapist. How do you think I should feel? Later, the rapist was seen returning to school. Aaliyah's stepmother asked the hospital why the boy was still able to return to school. The school said that he did not commit a crime, and it was reasonable to say that he could return to school. Later, the boy provoked her with a shameless smile. To make matters worse, she was stimulated. When she got home, she told Aaliyah's father about it, and she said: We should consider changing Aaliyah to another school, and I'm not teaching at this school anymore.
Similarly, this plot reminded me of the "Suyuan case": the rapist lived within 500 meters of the victim's house, and the girl's family was wondering whether to choose to move out of here and get rid of this cold-blooded hooligan. I'm wondering why the wicked in this society can survive magnanimously, while the kind people who have been hurt have to choose to escape again and again? Everyone in this society is crying about injustice and darkness, but more people choose to endure the darkness and do not refute. Even after refuting, there are a large number of so-called "just people" holding unfair signs to judge unfairness decision. In "The Furnace", the art teacher's friend approached the Education Department to prepare for this matter. The Education Department pushed the matter to the city government, and the city government pushed the matter to the Education Department. In "Su Yuan", the rapist can only be sentenced to 12 years in prison for such a tragic case just because the rapist drank on the day of the incident and the defense lawyer produced a psychoanalytic certificate. Isn't a series of such unfair things enough to reveal the current state of our society? Are we still the once blindfolded masses? After Suyuan's mother learned that it was the result of such a crime, she said: 12 years later, how old is my child? Have you considered this? Yes, after 12 years, Su Yuan is only in her early 20s, who is confident that the rapist will never come back for revenge?
When Suyuan lay dying in the emergency room, when the deaf child's head was pressed into the washing machine and stirred, these so-called mature abusers sneered, "I have never done such a thing" "They are annoying. When one family after another is destroyed, those parents who have given everything to make their children grow up healthily, but they can't do anything about it, the perpetrator just thinks: Judge, I am innocent. How can there be more sentences? Everyone has the right to be a parent, but some people don't deserve it.
Bong Joon-ho, director of the film "Parasite", which has won multiple Oscar nominations, said in an exclusive interview after the awards: The class problem is not only a problem in Korea, but also a problem in the whole world, and what the director can do , is to put this question into the film. Although the issue we are talking about today is not a class issue, the same applies. A phrase we often hear: Justice will always come, never be absent. But such a delayed justice, will it really cheer people up and fill the holes in their hearts? According to recent news, the murderer of the murder of a female university student of Southern Medical University 28 years ago has just been arrested. But the girl from that year will never come back, only memories and pain are left behind.
In fact, it is not difficult to see that the biggest commonality of these films is: the vacancies specified by the law, the social discrimination against women and vulnerable groups, and the control of money power. And look carefully at the movies, whether it is Korean laws or Indian regulations, the biggest omissions and injustices are sexism and alcoholism. No matter how much alcohol you drink, the laws of South Korea are uniformly enforced by stimulating the central nervous system. Whether it is law or morality, or people's cognition, India will always define a thing in terms of male supremacy. "After hundreds of baby girls are born, there will be a baby boy." It can be seen that the Indians devalue the status of women and the stupidity of exaggerating the value of men. We often say that now is the era of women, but often because of the cognition of these men who think they "inherit traditional culture", a series of idiots are driven to overthrow this era of women that was only established in the early days, and then further stifle female.
Therefore, what these three films are really talking about is not the violations that simply appear in front of the public and can be concluded without thinking, but use such a thing as a fuse, and then express the content as a threat to the whole society. , The government's tolerance to the perpetrators, covering up crimes, and the great demands and excessive restrictions on large groups of losers (such as the victims in the film, social women, etc.). As a capitalist society, the absolute limitation of the upper class, the pervasiveness of utilitarianism and the class struggle are always emerging. The principle of utilitarianism and the supremacy of money has greatly surpassed the humanistic exchange of feelings in the living society. In other words, it means that due to the occupation and parasitism of the living society by the system society, the utilitarianization and modernization of the population, and the use of money and industry as the great dominant force in the society. The living society has changed from the original central position to a model that can no longer function normally alone.
So, let's go back to the Joker 2019 movie as a model for comparison. It can be said that the radio host in the movie cannot understand the psychology of people lower than him, and his empathy ability is not enough, which makes him unable to see the real facts. As a social group, the clown can see clearly, even beyond the limits of other people's thoughts, he sees it clearly, so he is extremely painful. This is a good explanation, in "Su Yuan", "The Furnace" and "A Mother's Revenge", why the righteous people always fail to get the tangible benefits they can get, precisely because those who stand on the commanding heights The so-called "sober" people don't want to see clearly, and don't want to lower their status or status because of such things, and then they can't understand their voices and sadness, and what's more, they are indifferent, indifferent, Ridiculous, ruthless. This is easy to understand why many people who can generate empathy, injustice, or want to fight injustice, always appear in the middle class, but rarely in the upper and lower classes. Extreme crowds often see the opposite of everything. Lu Xun said something like this: People don't have the same feelings, I just think they are noisy. It's a bit out of place to put it here, but the meaning is similar.
Whether it is the people in the film or the self in reality, the society we live in is no longer a society that can be required by law and morality and can act fairly. The perpetrators can greet life with a bright attitude, and the victims can only live by the gossip and rumors of the crowd like a mouse crossing the street. Some people will say, what happened to this society? Is there really no one who can come out to preside over justice? As I said just now, this society is already a parasitic life world of the system, so when money can buy all relationships, then all problems are no longer problems. So, do you think there is only one teacher in The Furnace who wakes up and wants to sue the school? No, but his predecessors tried to no avail. When the relationship is bought, it is not easy to break the entry point of everything. So, this world is still a personal world. And this kind of human relationship is also based on the systematic social relationship of the upper-class social work. I pay to find someone, and you take the money to do things. As the middle and lower classes are oppressed by these forces, class solidification occurs. That's the real scary part.
Everyone must have seen it. I basically mentioned the movie "Joker 2019" in many articles. In fact, not only because this movie is really good, it has a deep social thinking value. Whether it brings a series of philosophical views or reflects social modernization, it is a great subversion of thinking. As a representative figure of postmodernism that overthrows modernity, the clown is often a manifestation of some people's deep thinking about society in the real society.
In fact, I finished watching "The Furnace" a few years ago, and after watching the movie "Su Yuan" a few days ago, I already wanted to write an article. Later, when I learned that there is a similar type of "A Mother's Revenge movie, I felt compelled to put it together after watching it. All three are representative. Aside from in-depth understanding, the orientation of the surface content is aimed at children of different ages, childhood and adolescence. Including adult crime and juvenile crime, in fact, it has become a trend that the number of criminals in the society is increasing year by year. And often the types of crime are many of the same type of crime as both assault and money.
In the society of capitalist countries, we often encounter a lot of people who want to say and dare to say, including some private radio stations and talk shows, which are also humorous and humorous to ridicule the phenomenon of government and social injustice. On the other hand, we try our best to keep the content in our mouths and minds in a conservative and traditional form, and we will not publicize those things that seem presumptuous but should actually be discovered, such as the article in this issue of the movie. content, and the example given at the beginning of this article. And precisely these things, if you don't say it, isn't it even more invisible?
The formation of society is the opposition between advantages and disadvantages, good and bad, black and white, positive and negative, sunshine and darkness. We live in the sun, and naturally there will be some shadows that are not covered, and because they are not exposed, we will not explore them any more. Because of our cultural heritage, we don't talk about sensitive politics. Just because we thought it wouldn't happen, when those extremely small possibilities come, we don't know how to protect ourselves. Just like now, this passage covers a lot of content, and the audiences are of different ages and positions, so they will not say all of them in a big way. The meaning of it still needs to be thought about by yourself. Of course, there are definitely problems with the way capitalism works, and there are downsides. But how can we guarantee that we are completely right in today's society? In other words, there are some loopholes because the event has not yet occurred, so no real vacancies can be seen. Everything is possible.
Seemingly far and unreachable things, in fact, each of us is a participant.
