(1) National anthem
performance artists are usually people who feel all absurdity. He doesn't seek profit, he just wants to make people embarrassed. He likes to look at the funny expressions at the moment when people's masks are removed. Human beings cannot face their true colors. Chinese dress and leather shoes, whitewash and lust.
The national anthem is a metaphor for the dignity of a country. The flag is flying and the expression is solemn, which is an unbearable weight in life. After human beings transformed into a civilized form, they imposed many derivatives on themselves. Authority, class, fiction, domination, identity... and so on. Suddenly removing all these attachments, I found that I was unbearably light and small. The gap in it was so absurd and empty and terrifying, like falling from a height in a dream.
All the characters are blurred and lack individuality. This is because the president, his assistant, or the wife of the president have long been integrated into the "civilized society", and their words and deeds are in line with everyone's expectations for those who occupy this position. The female assistant said earnestly: "If you don't go, this will be the handle of your political opponents attacking you." Yes, they all avoided the issue of life and dignity themselves, instead thinking about countermeasures with inherent political paths.
Civilized form prevents human beings from facing the core of life. They learn all kinds of proper techniques, but they no longer ask themselves.
The moment the genitals face the pigtails, humans are nakedly crushed. When the child said, look, the emperor was not wearing clothes, the adult covered his mouth.

Let us uncover human nature.
This is the provocative frontispiece thrown by "Black Mirror".
(2) The value of 15 million
There is no doubt that human beings can no longer bear the truth.
Therefore, they created such a fortress to rule reality. An entertainment machine was created to crush, cut, smash, repackage, and then sell the real ones.
Consumerism is a totalitarian shrouded in ideology.
Engels said that the pursuit of human society: wealth, wealth, or wealth. If there is progress in history, it is only progress in the material sense. All other derivative products are also accompanied by material progress. Entertainment, consumption, etc. What is the meaning of cycling every day? Consumption. When material abundance reaches a certain level, only consumption is left to express oneself.
The four walls are full of screens, and they cannot hide the paleness of life. The rich expressions peculiar to human beings, the smiles and smiles that are affected by the delicate muscle texture, degenerate into simple and crude expressions in digital form. The primitive awkwardness and frank expression need to be tamed and put on the hat of "the performance just now was excellent". Just like Han Han as an individual, he was dubbed the "Han Han Phenomenon."
They control and monopolize resources, and those who bow to them are turned into consumer goods. Those who did not bow to them continued to be enslaved in the bottom ditch.
In such a framework system, whether it is individuality or soul, it is to increase the added value as a "consumer". Second-hand rose sing, if people all over the world are selling it. However, who is not selling. The best outcome for an individual is to become a porn star.
(3) The entire history of a person
mirror mirror on the wall, why are human so painful?
Real things often carry the attributes of freedom and barbarism, and are not tamed. The ruler needs to control them.
The desire to control is what drives human suffering, madness, and evil.
The memory chip is the product of the desire to control.
Hayek has made a free market argument, claiming that those who intend to plan the economic life of mankind have a fatal conceit. The human process can only evolve freely, and the desire to control is the culprit of the massacre.
In a new era, technology is developed enough to replace human's physiological functions, and chips can be used to store all human history.
But when this storage carrier is externalized as a concrete thing, it becomes the target of the desire for control.
An individual not only has his own memory of the real scene, and loses the space for fantasy, beautification, and divergence, but also can share this real scene with others, and can even occupy and deprive others of their memories.
When a person can control memory, he is also enslaved by his own desire for control.
Propelled by the train of desire, human beings once again created great products that enslaved themselves.
When he woke up, hated, and cried bitterly to obscure the flesh and blood behind his ears, before the banquet, he was exquisitely dressed and enjoyed the superiority of the new technology and talked about it, crashing down.
The convenience brought by technology does not bring a sense of security. On the contrary, it plans the joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys of human beings, and loses the freedom of forgetting and memory itself.
Human beings are always fantasizing about a utopia, with everything they need. But when they are satisfied with the product created by their own wisdom, it is also the beginning of being enslaved by the product.
