Lots of leisure

For a few days, I often saw the news of Chen He's divorce, wherever I might see it. Now, I'm a mature person, I don't know anything about Chen He, and I didn't go to Google. A lot of news that forced me to watch, news, movies, and TV are just filtered out. Life is too short. In the age of information explosion, I have learned how to choose between information. And it is the kind that is completely natural, in short, has become a Buddha. Very happy.

So, when watching "Gone Girl" (Crimes of Disappearance), I laughed a few times, once when a popular neighbor lit candles on her lawn, and once when two interview hosts appeared on the scene.

This is an age of entertainment to death. Whether it is China with GFW or the United States, which is completely free, the difference is only the topic of everyone's gossip. The level of gossip is only the same, and the essence is the same. In this information age, everyone obtains information and participates. The event is so convenient that everyone cares more about the JJ and MM of others than the people around them.

This gossip spirit, the spirit of the Internet, the era of information dissemination and interaction, coupled with hypocritical political correctness, have created a powerful "field". This is actually very scary.

If you think about it, it was just an ordinary person who had an affair. One day his wife suddenly disappeared, and the furniture in the house was a little messy, so it was natural to call the police. Then...

Anyway, the neighbor's order of wax is definitely not something you have ever thought about. Then, all your privacy is exposed. You suddenly become a nationally famous man with a heart.

The scary thing about this is that you are not an entertainer, but suddenly it becomes a national entertainment.
And this can happen to anyone at any time. You think you are open and honest, "you can speak to others", but you don't understand what outsiders think of you. You think it's a small matter, a private matter, and everyone doesn't think so.

If this is a horror movie, this is the scariest one.

And why would the masses of people become things B? Or is the people just the thing B?
The answer is: thing B is one of the basic attributes of human beings. It is harmless to humans and animals. After the tea and dinner, casually chat with the big plate. But with the mass media, everything is different. After the mass media began to compete, it was another matter altogether. Everyone helped the flames and induced each other to finally become what it is today.

About ten years ago, when I watched a 60-minute interview, someone (can't remember who it was) said that there is no TV at home and intellectuals don't watch TV. I was shocked at the time-I am also an intellectual, why do I like watching TV so much, and I am crazy about Wu Zongxian's "I guess I guess I guess I guess".

Now I don’t watch TV anymore. I don’t force myself to be a qualified intellectual, but I’m not interested in watching it at all. Today, I finally understand the old man’s words: Intellectuals don’t need to watch TV.

Therefore, this movie is not a black marriage life at all, nor is it a hypocrisy of a middle-class elite. It is actually a black man and the mass media. It's really not the same thing as "Road to Revolution" and "American Beauty".

Are these two people married? Do they cut potatoes? Do you take children? Do you wash the dishes and wipe the table? Are there days and nights facing each other, is there evidence of the fading of passion? (The two have been married for five years! Learn from other people about marriage!) This is not the focus of the director. Here, please refer to how the above two movies quietly declared the death of love in marriage.

And the couple in this movie are weird at the beginning and have nothing to do with marriage. Especially Amy, it is reasonable to say that she is crazy. Growing up in such an environment, there are so hypocritical parents. (When he acted until he was in the act), compared with her, her husband is at most a hemp, who eats the bowl and looks at the pot, and in Jackie Chan's words, "makes the mistakes all men in the world make." That's it.

The one with sharp eyes is the lawyer. He has taken too many cases like this, knows how to do it, and uses it like a fish in water. In this era, whoever can control the mediocrity can make money, run for the presidential congressman, and even do whatever they want---this is an era that looks better than any other era. As long as the acting skills are good and the public relations are good, bad things can turn into good things (publishing books, filming, selling story rights...)

I hope you can understand why not watching TV, because watching TV will lower your IQ. real.
Another: For those sick moaners who say that this movie tells the essence of marriage, I want to say that your marriage is really far from this movie. Even divorce is definitely not "hypocrisy of the middle class". advanced. The fact that the real estate certificate does not write the woman's name is definitely not a crisis of the level of "marriage is the tomb of love".

Finally, back to the title, why does the public have so much time to pay attention to other people's JJ stamps? Because it's too idle. Really, like Qiao Bangzhu said, if you know that there is still one day left in your life, would you use it to watch TV and watch gossip news? Although you seem to be busy every day, fast-paced and high-intensity work, as long as you still have time to watch TV and watch gossip news, it means that you are still relatively free. He has not yet become a real intellectual.
