We all have to think

Watching this year's Oscar's best movie "Crash", it really deserves its reputation. It not only has the entertainment of TV series, but also deals with the problem of racial discrimination in a democratic society (in an autocratic society, it is handled by the government on a patent).

This movie will have the same appeal in other developed countries in the West. The 21st century is the era of the circulation of talented people in the world. Now all developed countries are going in the direction of reducing the immigration conditions of specialized talents in order to attract talents in order to compete on the world stage. As a result, it is inevitable that big cities have become ethnically diverse.

Every region has its own set of "politically correct" racial views. For example, in the United States, whites are the majority and discriminators, and other ethnic groups can be called "non-whites" and discriminated against. Even in real life, white people may soon not be "majority" in numbers, but they will continue to be "majority."



Politically incorrect

The biggest selling point of this movie is "political incorrect", which returns the racial issue to reality. The story takes place in LA, extremeizing a series of racial issues that ordinary citizens face every day: The film is full of trivial incidents and misunderstandings that cause vendettas and loss of control. When you watch this movie, you will feel that LA is really terrifying, but it's just a deliberate creation of the screenwriter. However, it is precisely this kind of extremeization of trivial matters that can make the audience sit up to their seats and have to rethink whether their own "race policy" will bring irreparable consequences.

A typical example of a politically correct racial film is that although black people have perverted words and deeds, they are actually just cultural differences. They are all kind. The last scene must be that the black man was discriminated against by the police for no reason. He didn't know why he didn't follow the instructions. Then the police thought he was going to draw a gun, so he acted first. . . In the end, it was only a misunderstanding.

In reality, because of social factors, blacks are often idlers and home robs. There is no false truth in the film for political correctness. What I have to say is that racial discrimination is not a unilateral issue. The mentality and behavior of the discriminated person is decisive: a look, a small gesture, and an unintentional speech can be regarded as a discriminatory behavior by the discriminated person.

Sometimes, discrimination is only in one's own heart, it is oneself discriminating oneself.



We all have to think

The message from this film is that we must all think more about this issue and have our own stand and opinions, otherwise catastrophic results will occur.

When the young police officer couldn't bear the racial discrimination of the old police officer against people of African descent and asked to resign, the old police officer said to him, "Do you think you know who you are? You don't know at all." As a result, the young police officer asked him to resign. Finally made a greater tragedy.

I never felt that someone discriminated against their own black youth, and finally caused a catastrophe for themselves.

On the contrary, people with deep racial differences at the beginning were influenced by their words and deeds and liberated from the differences.

Do we think that our attitude on this sensitive issue is affected by random people and events, or is there a set of adherence to our own policy?

Is it the solution to treat all people equally and avoid discrimination? Innocently ignoring the existence of differences will only make inappropriate actions for oneself and cause unnecessary trouble for oneself.

Living in a society full of discrimination is much more than just calling black people a nigger.
