A little thought about freedom

Three stars in the movie, one star gives freedom, really human flesh overturns the wall. Since then, I feel that the word "over the wall" has been cast with a tragic color.

In fact, the material life of the protagonist in the movie is not bad. They live in a small building, have a car, and go to Berlin for a walk-and-go trip. It’s a good life now, but they still have to Fleeing at the risk of being killed and imprisoned, why? Freedom is not only physical freedom, but also spiritual and soul freedom.

In 1963, the then US President Nixon gave a speech in West Berlin (don’t ask me why the United States went to participate in the German peace, did they participate in the peace rarely), there is a paragraph in it that may be the best explanation of the film: There are many difficulties with freedom, and democracy is not perfect. However, we have never built a wall to keep our people in it and forbid them to leave us.

The environment we live in today is naturally better than that of East Germany during the Cold War. At least there is no need to worry about personal freedom. If you spend 200 yuan to get a passport, it’s basically no problem where you want to go, but these are true. Is it enough?

Of course we know that there is no absolute freedom in this world, but it is definitely not something we can give. It needs too many perfect systems and laws to stand firm.

We hope that one day we can sit in the cinema and enjoy movies exactly like the people of the world; we hope that one day two people who love each other can walk on the street with their fingers clasped together, regardless of their gender; we hope that one day people They can settle in any city they like without being restricted by any conditions... Even now, when I type these words, I don’t need to think carefully about which words are likely to cause a 404. of.
