Impressions after watching the frontier trilogy

After watching the movie, I felt a sense of powerlessness. Sheridan's frontier trilogy all gave people a sense of powerlessness, the powerlessness of knowing where the problem was but unable to correct the problem.

Humans have created modern civilization, and civilization has produced its own social order in its operation, and human differences have also endowed this order with differentiation. When people enjoy the life brought by civilization, they have to bear the order under these differences. problems caused.

These differences have caused constant conflicts, war conflicts, ethnic conflicts, financial conflicts, rich and poor conflicts, class conflicts, land conflicts... and many more problems. We can all see these problems, and we all know that these problems are wrong and should be corrected, but this world is built on the order that caused these problems, you cannot be an enemy of the whole world, even if you overthrow this order, but new problems will continue to appear, and people's desires and selfishness will never change.

And you can't turn a blind eye, because there are so many people who are suffering from the problems caused by these differences and suffering right before your eyes. Of course, it also includes yourself. The order brought by the civilization under the difference makes you suffer from it.

You want to change, but you can’t start. You find that you can’t change any problem, because the essence of the problem is the difference between people, groups, civilizations, and inner desires. This difference includes you, and the difference is innate . You are very powerless, and finally you find that all you can do is to accept the order brought about by this difference, and integrate into the life under this order until you die, passively die.

You can't even take the initiative to die, because the existing order of people's birth and their different hearts from others have given you unlimited shackles and suffering, and when you change, your desires, selfishness and differences The civilized order of the world is also changing, it makes people unable to rest, and the world suffers. (Are all human sufferings self-inflicted?)

But you have to do something, to change yourself, to overcome the current problems, to face new problems, to solve new problems through change, and then to face a bunch of new problems. Repeated cycle, constant reincarnation, there are endless problems in this world, and people have constant problems in their lives.

(But we can at least keep ourselves from being hit by the problems in front of us. We work hard to hit the problems in front of us, if not all of them, but we have been fighting, fighting to the death.)
