I don't know what i'm talking about

When I read ancient literary theory before, I wondered why Xunzi’s popularity was so low. Later, I figured it out clearly, or I persuaded myself and thought I figured it out clearly. It is impossible for a view that advocates the evil of human nature to have a big market. If you tell the truth, it is not good for anyone. After speaking out, the stupid ones have no hope, and the smart ones can't be confused.

It’s such a thing as old and nowhere. For a while, it’s very cynical, even if it’s serious, it’s a bit anti-human. It’s not pleasing to your eyes. Then there will be a day to go to eat with a Scorpio boy and see my depression state, this one has a black belly. The man immediately took advantage of the vacancy to enter, and exchanged each other's dark world view with me, and then asked me to see the old without a home.

When you are in this state, watching this film will feel very refreshing. I dare say that when you want to destroy all the stupid people in the world are dead, watching this film is perfect. It is too simple to destroy everyone’s life, provided that you have the ability to destroy easily. Those people have always relied on the worldview of life.

But there is a key problem that makes this problem extremely difficult. That is, this is just a movie, and a movie cannot prove anything, because it does not belong to any object that can constitute strong evidence.

Xunzi still has no market until modern times, because the view that human nature is evil can make it untenable in a thousand ways. We know that people have an instinct to ignore things they don’t want to believe in countless ways. You can even turn a blind eye.

And we don’t realize the key to the problem. We are not trying to convince people with different positions. All we need is to find those who have the same position as ours, and then use the usual ignorance of those idiots to ignore those idiots.


What do I say to Scorpio? In fact, WELL constellation theory has also begun to become a symbol for me. We know that many people in the world believe in this, just like believing in religion or science, the essence is the same, so now I use it as a symbol, To explain something.

When we were young, we looked at the constellation analysis. When it comes to Scorpio, we say that they are characterized by being prone to some vicious, cruel, focused, and cold-hearted people. In fact, I think the twelve constellations are more like twelve different components that make up us. The part, just as each of us has a vicious, cold, cruel self in our hearts, it just depends on the degree of release and difficulty.

Children will definitely hate Scorpio after reading the constellation analysis, but I found that one day, I think Scorpio is the most excellent constellation. If there is such a person. I even began to suspect that Japan's most respected Scorpion is for the same reason.

Why are you being indoctrinated with opinions that are fundamentally incompatible with the idea of ​​"human nature is evil"? Because you love your family and friends, they love you too? You love the world, love the society, they love you too? Yes, to a certain extent, although this is not actually the most essential reason. Because I also have important people, my current state is not suitable for seeing old people who have nothing to rely on. I find that when people are in a normal or loving state, people will instinctively resist the truth.

Contrary to the sentence I wanted to say for a long time. In fact, that day, the Scorpio boy and I had a conversation with the north wind on the icy street.

He told me his favorite plot, and I smiled and said to him, you know what.

You know, I finally found a movie to prove my idea.

To a certain extent, I believe in constellations, I believe in science more, when I get old, I may still believe in religion, but ----------

I never thought that there is any kind of thing in the world, It can really, completely, explain the human heart and human nature.

Just as I believe-----

I said to him that day, I always believe that there is such a kind of people in the world, they are just pure, killing people as part of their lives, or even the whole.

From birth, evil is all of their souls. There is no boring psychological analysis, no shit childhood trauma, no boring preaching of so-called experts who are idiots, no abnormalities, no deformities, they are just normal, and they regard killing as a daily need.

Just like the old and helpless male protagonist, he not only kills, but also has his own set of principles.


Yes, it’s just a movie. It can’t prove anything. I can’t tell you that every second you might be shot and killed by someone, and there is no reason for that person to kill you. It’s just that he wants to kill and it just happened. You or you just happened to run into him by bad luck. You would never believe what I said, or believe that we are actually living in great danger every second.

Because no one believed that they would meet until before he met.

Danger always happens before safety, and when it happens, safety is useless. You don't even have time to say "Why me?". In fact, there is no need to ask these words. Because you should have known for a long time that from an early age, the "common sense" and opinions artificially entered into your brain are all BULLSHIT.

Of course, we can't stay vigilant every second, and in fact, this is useless. When you meet the dear old protagonist, no matter how vigilant you are, you have to die. That's right, he is neither a god of death nor a god. He is not qualified to take your life. We all know that the law stipulates that you can't kill people, and religions don't allow you to kill.

But when others just want to kill you, what can you say when they want to kill you unconditionally?

Say "you will be sentenced to death"? The most extreme evil, let alone the law, there is nothing in this world that can be punished.

You know, it's just there, just as you are there. And it is even more reasonable than you.

Yes, we don't know why we believe in those nonsense things, why insist on those things, since you know you will completely overthrow them before you die.

What's even more ridiculous is that we don't know who it is, it was brainwashed for us before. Yeah, who is it, what do you think.

On that windy day in the early spring of last year, after speaking that sentence, I don't remember what the Scorpio man said, because of course he didn't refute me, he just looked at me and kept laughing. Of course, that is a knowing smile.

You want to be happy all the time, you want to believe in the world, you want to rely on it, you don’t want to be so clear, you don’t want to know that evil is everywhere, you don’t want to know that one day you will be unreliable or you don’t want to think about it, you don’t want to know Those idiotic views that were instilled in the past are just some people you never know who want to make you a soft sheep according to their will, and they will be happy and stupid with their eyes closed until death; they don’t want to be Xunzi’s disciple, but want to continue. Ignore the people in the other world that you might have seen on the street-of course, although you may be in the same world with him one day-I don't want to do this or that, anyway-

even if you are tortured by others Feel very happy, or you have always felt that you are the happiness of Zhongxing Pengyue---WHATEVER.

Then you don't need to watch this movie.

    There is no joking story, the drastically reduced black elements, a piece made by Cohen that is unbelievably plain; the cold image, the loud and sound dialogue, reveals the helplessness of the old and helpless.

  • Jane 2022-03-24 09:01:07

    I really like the bitter-looking character played by Josh Brolin, and the desperate situation of the elderly who are forced to desperate in the whole film: in fact, the concept of this film is somewhat similar to that of the other film, that is, the "Fathers" "Footprints". From the year 2007, it is indeed a film worth remembering. But from the perspective of the Coen brothers, it is not at all. This is a relatively unsuccessful work.
