But the power of this film is that it allows people who see this clip to jump out and think about the rationality of this statement, rather than simply being assimilated by it. Then there will be a different, or completely opposite voice from the audience, I think this is also the real intention of Kubrick when shooting.
Yesterday I chatted with a friend studying in France about the media and free speech. He said that the terrible thing about the French is that they are in an environment where the mainstream media has been turned into a party by political parties, but they don’t know anything about it. Insist that reading newspapers and periodicals is their main channel for obtaining truthful information. Although there are still a small number of people who jump out to think, the feeling of powerlessness that they cannot change the status quo after thinking will force this minority group to give up tired thinking and turn a blind eye with most people.
However, he added that the French lived blindly and happily. The relationship between the people and the media has not been demonized to the extent of intrigue. In a sense, they maintain a pathological harmony. No one breaks this state of co-prosperity because no one has the subjective idea of breaking this state. In short, they are deceived and happy.
However, there will be a group of "democracy supporters" under the banner of "innate human rights" and aggressively invading the values of these thinking groups. The resulting differences will cause varying degrees of harm.
Before "rescue", please ask "Do you need help". Blindly hard-line reforms can only lead to tougher resistance. Incidents such as bloodshed and conflict will follow one after another. Therefore, before the situation becomes uncontrollable, and before teaching others how to respect human rights, it is particularly important to demonstrate how to respect human rights. important.
Because you who are shrewdly penetrating democracy and freedom can never understand that blindly being brainwashed is also a simple and ordinary happiness.
PS: I have always felt that the United States is a melting pot, compatible with all schools of thought, and it is extremely joyful to fight even if it is contradictory. For example, like European countries, they advocate individualism and maximize individual rights, but implicitly promote heroism. It is commendable to emphasize that individuals save the nation more than once, especially in the era of large-scale wars.
Although the government has repeatedly promoted that "we are assisting other countries to embark on the path of democracy and freedom," there are still some people who have taken the initiative to reflect on various behaviors, such as Kubrick and his "Full Metal Shell." Even if he didn't intend to do this, it is really valuable to induce such "distortion".
I would like to give this document to people who think about it and do something about it
