We have everything and nothing.

I watched "Upload Life" for the past few days, and then I accidentally chose this movie (hhhh I thought it was about the same sex when I saw the poster), I didn't expect this one to criticize consumerism, and I watched this kind of movie. I really hate capitalism even more, and I feel helpless because it is an unavoidable historical wave... Consumption makes people lost in a kind of empty short-lived happiness, and at the same time, with the advancement of technology, technology in turn promotes consumption, and the two continue to Infiltrating human life, tying human beings to this state of nothingness... When human beings begin to slowly lose their independent will and try to regain their sense of existence, they will not be so empty, so human beings begin to return to some primitive secular barbarism The behavior of... As in this movie, Tony has everything, but he also needs to work hard to find everything that proves his existence, even if it is meaningless... He told his best friend to put down his phone and told him not to fill his heart with material things, but he Forget that you are also filling yourself with senseless competition and sex... Make love with a disguised "princess" every night, use those trembling seconds to prove to each other that we are no longer alone, even if we don't know each other, we don't need love, Just a few seconds of happiness every day seems to be able to find myself... No one is trying to hide their loneliness. No lonely person can live well in this world, but everyone in this world is lonely. Technology weakens this sense of loneliness. Online shopping, social interaction, games, etc. make humans inseparable from them through some short-term satisfaction... When human beings are accustomed to indulging in this environment surrounded by technology, even when they find themselves dominated by technology , "It's not that I won't reject technology, it's that I don't want to reject it..." (Digression: The name of the one who said this, David Zuckerman, really made me laugh to death, and it must be the curly-haired one who was chosen according to Jesse's image The look is too similar. Sure enough, Jesse's Maza image has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but now the director's casting is based on curly hair? Flat-headed real Maza really cried and fainted in the toilet hhhhh) ...In the world dominated by technology, everything can be measured by money, capital is supreme, love, friendship, family, can be put into a suitcase, can be bet with shares, can be used with gold coins To recharge, you can use property as collateral, delete it if you don’t want it, as long as you are rich enough... In the end, we will upload ourselves, give ourselves completely to technology, and store our will in the hard drive and give it to others? Or go back to nature, leave the 5 things you need most and the people you love, use black technology to rescue those humans who are bound by technology, and then "go to the involuntary will of TM"? In upload's life, you are just a data stream. Are those uploaded wills still life individuals? How can you tell if that data is still you? The people in 100Dinge are discussing whether people who have been deprived of material conditions are free. When all my things are taken away, what do I have? Yes, is it really nothing? We have everything, we have material life, we have freedom, the future is not far away, but we have nothing...
