Modernization and blue-collarization

How to kill a person with a gun? Aim, pull the trigger, and pray that you won’t be hit by the opponent.

How to kill a person with a knife? First of all, you must overwhelm the opponent with momentum and let the enemy flee without a fight. It is best if you don’t have a bloody sword. Then you can explore the reality and look at the empty door to make big moves. Of course, it is necessary to move and dodge and respond to the situation. It already contains strength, talent, time, sweat, history and philosophy. Killing with a knife is really a profound knowledge!

Therefore, in the era of cold weapons, you can use swords well. If you can be a paladin, swordsman, or samurai, you can either work for the local king or stand on your own. My friend covers the place, and he is also a golden collar no matter what.

No worries about food and clothing, the golden collar will naturally have a place where it can be a cash collar. The first is to never work, and to eat in the ground is a matter of inferior people. Then you must have a life style, how to show your temperament without revealing both hands. The most important thing is to have face, and to die hard, especially when you can show your professionalism. So the most likely thing to happen when two swordsmen meet is a duel. The reason is not important, although they all call it a sense of honor and dignity.

The higher you stand, the more painful you fall. The direct consequence of military modernization is that a machine gunner who has been training for three months---it is estimated that two months and twenty days are used to train kicking forwards--can be used to raging dozens of experts. The cavalry in the ring was furious, and even the main hero was forced to drive back to the city scroll, uh, he should have reincarnated on his own initiative. The indirect consequence is that all the golden-collar samurai are laid off, and then they compete to become blue-collar machine gunners. Naturally, everything about Golden Collar no longer exists.

Modernization makes everything simple, but it also makes everyone a screw of this huge social machine. It becomes less important. All sincerity, respect, and sacrifice at the cost of life have become extremely ridiculous. .

    Actually quite general.

    (9/10) Bushido is actually the same as Chinese chivalry and Western chivalry. It is always a spirit that people yearn to learn, but ultimately cannot be fully popularized, because politicians don't need idealists. At the end of the film, Emperor Meiji was moved by Tomoko and took over Katsuemoto's samurai sword. This is just an artistic creation. As a great politician, Meiji did not have the romance of a chivalrous man. On the contrary, Meiji used militarism to replace the samurai spirit.
