Even if we are not a society that is willing to reform the wicked, don't become a society that is afraid to reform the victims (8.5/10)

The reconstruction process of the victim male protagonist Wea is actually very clear: if compared with Fang Siqi in Lin Yihan's writings, then the state on the hospital bed can be seen as a kind of chaos, just like the three questions Lin Yihan asked before his death. This question is essentially a question that cannot be answered because he is caught in his own logical cycle, so it can be regarded as the male protagonist asking "why is it like this". And in the scene where the girl consoles the male protagonist, the girl's sentence "I am the same" wakes him up, making him gradually regain his "leadership" personality before the victimization, from a sense of despair over his extremely poor state of mind and body (this When the problem becomes "I want to recover but I can't see the way for now", at least not an unhealthy mental model), to trying to get on the "road" of physical and mental recovery (learning to walk is second, caring about the situation of my brother and mother is the first priority) Important point), at this time it is time to really start to face the devil, even if you are afraid at first, but such a healthy mental state and a fully recovered leadership personality can be able to compete with the devil that has invaded your body and shocked your soul.

In any case, it is definitely not the right way for the victim to choose suicide. The direct fuse that saves the male protagonist from the unhealthy mental model that killed Lin Yihan is the male desire to protect the girl. Of course, this also stems from An extremely healthy home environment is what it is. We have an obligation to point out a path to redemption for victims and those around them, and while it may be offensive to so-called feminist ideology, that's far better than sympathy based purely on "right" positions. In the topic of "Lin Yihan and Alyosha", there is an article that uses philosophy to answer Lin Yihan's three questions. It is very well written. Finally, in his conclusion, he mentions Lin Yihan's sentence "I am powerless and have no intention to change the society." , and the author's answer to this is: "People may need a little social responsibility to survive." Some feminists may begin to think that this is a matter of avoiding the most important things, "not punishing the wicked, but pointing at the victims", I think this kind of remarks is only correct, but it does not necessarily deserve the correct role.

ps: The film's villain film critic program can be said to be the most recent episode in terms of personal values ​​improvement.

    Very shocking. It is about a truly civilized world, how people face the huge harm caused by extreme violence. What violence wants and wants to achieve is actually corroding people's beliefs and reason, and the body of civilization is scarred and scarred. The heart is extremely sad, but the faith is unshakable. The last few words of the lawyer are too powerful

    I only watched the first half of the episode to understand the incident. The subsequent trial and the rehabilitation of the injured have little information.

  • Lara: How are you feeling?

    Viljar: I'm okay. And you?

    Lara: Yeah. I'm fine. I was in the shower block when it started, so I managed to run and hide. But I got separated from my sister Bano. I'm sorry about Simon and Anders, too.

    Viljar: It's shit.

    Lara: How is the food here? Is it okay?

    Viljar: It's pretty shit, too. Actually, it's *really* shit.

    [they share a relieving laugh]

  • Judge Wenche Arntzen: Can you tell us what happened to you on Utøya, Viljar?

    Viljar: Yes.

    [has a flashback in his head]

    Viljar: He tried to... he tried to kill me. I remember... seeing him... and then running away... trying to find somewhere to hide, and protecting my little brother. I remember being shot. Five times. When I was lying on the beach, I was... all alone. In a kind of pain I couldn't imagine.

    Judge Wenche Arntzen: But now you are here.

    Viljar: But everything's different. I've had to relearn how to use my body. Learn how to walk again. How to feed myself again. I have little use of my left arm, and I'm... I'm blind on one eye. But that's, uh... that's a relief.

    Judge Wenche Arntzen: A relief. How do you mean?

    Viljar: [laughs shakily] A relief, in a way that at least now I don't have to look at him.

    [some of the people in the audience laugh briefly]

    Viljar: But of course it's not that simple. I... I have a fragment of his bullet lodged in my brain that could kill me at any time. And I don't look like the person I used to anymore, I... My body, it's... it's broken. And the worst is that he... he killed Anders and Simon, my best friends. Stopping them from making their mark on the world, and... and they would have made it a better place. And I... I miss them every day. I'm sorry, I... I didn't... I didn't want to cry. I so much didn't want to cry in front of him. I... I wanted to stay strong. Because I do this for them. So they will not be forgotten. And when you shot them and left me alone on the beach, I didn't know if I was living or dying. And I've been stuck there ever since. But now... I realize that I got a choice. Because I still have a family... and friends... and memories. Dreams. Hope. And love. And he doesn't. He's... completely alone. And he's going to rot there in prison, whereas I... I survived. And I choose to live.
