When the final game was completed, Ender and his friends eliminated the main star of the Zerg. The

adults congratulated

him but burst into tears, because he became a genocide at the age of 11.

This is also the mainstream of science fiction movies in the 1980s,

such as ET, third kind, and so

was the Soviet hegemony, maintaining nuclear terrorism, each guaranteed to completely destroy

mainstream human beings in such a cloud of horror, science fiction, that is the face of alien ideas

are based on mainly peaceful

just as "safe Ender said that in the final battle, the Zerg didn't want to launch a war of invasion, but humans didn't try to understand them,

just like in "The Advocate of the Dead" (this was also mentioned in the movie), The dismemberment of human beings by aliens is not a slaughter, but a

reflection of their bizarre biological state into reality. The United States and the Soviet Union are hostile, but people generally pursue peace. The mainstream of the behavior of the enemy is "we don't actually understand them".

Therefore, although the Cold War and nuclear terror guaranteed us to perish together, they did not come.


But today, science fiction films have been flooded with films such as "Super Battleship" and "Battle of Los Angeles". The behavior of the aliens is just "invaders", and the task of the earth people (or the US military) is to destroy them and destroy them.

The argument of science fiction has become the theory of "Dark Forest". There is no warm peace between civilizations. There is only war for the purpose of robbing resources and destroying each other.

Therefore, our era may be worse and more terrifying than the era of the Cold War.

There are no polarities. of repression and terror, the indifference and indifference of people to war and destruction

Must know that without nuclear bombs, would the race not perish?

Compared with the 1980s, we are more advanced except for computers and mobile phones. The

environment, food, economy, social pressure, everything seems to be getting worse, even collapsing


Maybe it's because our thinking is no longer the peaceful thinking of "thinking

about the other side" during the Cold War, but the more aggressive "Dark Forest" kind of thinking of protecting ourselves and destroying others.
