Survive is not exist. Don’t interpret it as "live, fuck everything else." Otherwise, this will appear at the end of "American Horror Story III" (well, III is not as good as II), "Queer as folk" and "World's End" The line "We Can Survive!" was completely blank.
1. The authority of the clear—Vilford,
you have already seen "We", "1984", and "Animal Farm", right? So after the violent revolution, if the people lack the ability to judge and monitor the government's self-confidence, it is a choice The courage to take responsibility for the consequences, the former revolutionary leader will inevitably become the new tyrant, centralized or centralized, the nobles have changed their surnames, and nameless slaves are still nameless slaves, right? However, the backbone of the violent revolution is the masses who have the least judgment, lack of self-confidence, and least understanding of the sense of dignity. The driving force for their revolution is often just hunger. "I want to eat chicken!" The black woman shouted in the uprising crowd.
The old system is designed like this:
if they have judgment, they will understand their situation-they are the reserved parts of the system, screws, and human resources. If resources are surplus, the consumption will be intensified, and if resources are scarce, they will be fed more feed. So when you feed more, you just give more feed. This is not a change of the sky or the emperor's grace. Don't be grateful, the value is just low, don't imagine it.
If they are confident, they will become individualists like Eskimo women and Nangong Xiumin—find their own way out, be wary of any doctrines, break away from the masses in a coaxing manner, and finally die in their own hands, even dragging down many others. The people in the carriage jumped to death without looking at the road section, and the door exploded regardless of the avalanche almost killing their own children, turning them into laughingstocks, idiots, badass, or monuments. Add a lot of trouble to the system, these liberal counter-revolutionaries. Passengers in the last section of the car are not confident. They asked, "Big Brother, what should I do? Master, what should I do? President, what should I do? God, what should I do? Buddha, what should I do? Head of State, Chairman, what should I do? What do you say, I will do."
If they have a sense of dignity, in order not to be stigmatized, they will commit suicide, refuse to have children, refuse to cooperate, refuse to lose only one arm, or even refuse to get in the car from the beginning.
But none of them.
Centralization controls everything. Even Jesus Buddha and faith are part of the design. "There is almost no mental state in the world in which humans cannot survive, there is nothing that humans cannot give up, and there is nothing that humans cannot sell themselves for. All these considerations seem to confirm the hypothesis that there is no one at all. The universality of human beings means that, in fact, apart from the physiological and anatomical significance, there is no species of'human' at all." If the environment is too harsh, people will become cannibalistic beasts. Beasts are more difficult to control and use, so a low-cost way to deal with them is to give them God, give them great leaders XXX, and give them idols to worship and worship. For faith, the system sees it this way. What do you think? Kylian chopped his hand, is it a performance or a miracle? He said to Curtis: "Cut off Vilford's tongue as soon as we meet, and don't give him a chance to speak" for what purpose? But in any case, people who would rather eat their own body rather than eat others have appeared in the end. why?
"(The Russian system) on the other hand proves that this system is by no means sufficient to create a free, friendly, and non-alienated society. On the contrary, it shows that a centralized planned economy can even produce more than capitalism and Nazism. A deeper autocracy under the system.” “In many ways, Stalin’s system is similar to the early stages of European capitalism. It is characterized by the rapid accumulation of capital and the cruel exploitation of workers; the difference is that political terror has replaced those that forced the 19th century. The workers of the century accept the economic laws of their situation." En. You know all these things in this country.
Of course, the train is not a simile of the complete real world. It is a condensate of the most brutal political system and the most evil economic system.
In short, many people think that this can only be done with the last carriage. A violent revolution is meaningless, it is impossible to overthrow the system, and the leaders who survive are conspirators and liars. What do you think?
2. Anonymous authority-engine
You have already seen "Brilliant New World", "Das Kapital", "National Economy and Philosophy", right? Therefore, after the Industrial Revolution, the relationship between man and nature has become more alienated and opposed. In agricultural society, man clings to self-consciousness, looking back at the angel holding a sword of flame at the gate of the Garden of Eden, he does not comment; now, even the passengers in the last carriages have eaten industrialization. The food made (GMO or cockroaches, whatever, whatever), even if the passengers in the last carriage also enjoy the air-conditioning, we are more comfortable, but our self-awareness is gone, right?
"This kind of alienated personality that is waiting for a price must lose a lot of sense of dignity, and the sense of dignity is unique to humans, and even exists in most primitive cultures. Such people almost completely lose their sense of self and no longer feel Oneself is a unique and unrepeatable entity. Self-sense stems from self-experience: I am my experience, my thoughts, my feelings, my decisions, my judgments, and the subject of my actions. Self-sense First, I believe that my experience belongs to me, not something far away from me. Things have no self, and people who have become things will also have no self."
"The capitalism of the 20th century and the capitalism of the 19th century Similarly, the foundation is the principle that can be found in any class society: people are used by others." "The concept of people using people is not even related to whether they are being used by others or themselves. Because the fact remains: a person, A living person is no longer an end in himself, but has become another person or himself or an inhuman giant-an economic machine-a tool for realizing his economic benefits. "Yes, that's the African kid, and January Sushi must be eaten in July, and Krono in the nightclub. Consumption tools and production tools to maintain the overall balance of supply and demand. (According to the leftist theory) So there is actually very boring entertainment, there are luxury goods with low cost performance, there is a slimming industry, there is a Korean star, the fashion industry, Guo Jingming...
Since entering the front compartment, it's like watching an advertisement. Advertising for environmental protection technology, advertising for LV, advertising for Apple, advertising for tourism... (according to the leftist theory) consumerism uses advertising and popular culture to cover up people's true needs, making them physically happy and mentally sluggish and indulging in vanity, in order to be happier and more happier. Weakness is more vain, the middle class is exhausted, and the privileged class is in emptiness and has to take drugs. Even if or especially you from the end of the car, you yearn for this kind of life, longing to be out of reach, working hard for this and consuming your life (you only have one life), but most of you will never reach it. Your values are manipulated by design. (Of course, this view often simplifies the needs of people because it is hostile to physical pleasure, and eventually becomes a tool for centralized politics to exploit the lower classes, and even eating meat has become a crime.)
"What society needs is to be able to compete in large groups. Those who cooperate smoothly with others, those who want to consume more and more, and those who have standardized tastes, are susceptible to influence, and whose requirements are predictable." Yes, it is brainwashing classrooms, bars, saunas, and tailoring carts. "Anonymous authority—the authority of public opinion and the market—replaces rational and irrational public authority; the need for adaptation and recognition replaces personal conscience; a growing sense of powerlessness that is unaware in most cases It replaces pride and superiority.” Yes, Vilford is an open authority, and an engine is an anonymous authority. For an engine, stopping is death. For a national economic stagnation, it is political instability. Maintaining stability and conscience overwhelms everything.
"No one is responsible for all this, no one is guilty, and no one can change this situation. What people encounter is the iron social law, or it seems like this." Yes, in the end the director could only let the avalanche overthrow the train. ,so bad! What a rogue, I paid for the ticket, Xiao Feng gave me such a messy solution! The two most successful social forms of mankind so far: the capitalist society supported by consumerism, and the centralized society supported by pseudo-socialism. The centralized society must be overthrown, and now even capitalism is going to be opposed, so in general, this film is anti-social. Is it okay to be anti-social? Democratic voting or something is not good?
Healthy people constitute a healthy society.
"The answer of course depends on what health means. If health refers to a person's ability to continue to produce and extend offspring to the best of his social responsibility, then the alienated person is obviously healthy.... Naturally, the concept of health and disease is Created by those who systematically articulate them-and therefore are also the product of the culture in which these people live. Alienated psychiatrists will define mental health in terms of alienated personality..."; "If people don’t have any of their own Will and belief, if they are just some alienated robots whose tastes, opinions and preferences are all manipulated by the big control machine, how can they express their'own' will? In this case, universal suffrage has become a This is an object of blind worship.” Yes, turning the train into a democratic society, but the foundation of democracy is that everyone bears the weight of his own life, assumes responsibility, faces fear alone, rejects the mass media, rejects the guidance of public opinion, and refuses to buy with money. The easy answer came, you may be able to do it in the front car, but many others will not be happy because of laziness and vanity. Flat society is also impossible, because people love the pyramid structure, because it has a spire, the spire is the Lord of the Rings, it's my precious! We are not saints! The flat structure is like Marx's utopia, which is beautiful, but no one knows the way to get there.
"These cross-strait political and commercial ruling groups composed of large consortia, large enterprises, and a few rulers can abandon Taiwan at any time, and they can move to any place in the world where labor is cheaper. They are like vampires, sucking up. The blood and sweat of the youth of one country began to find the flesh of the youth of other countries.” Yes, this is a paragraph in various anti-service trade articles. You understand their fears, they are also in the car.
3. You-a "person", and,
since Curtis is a big idiot , you are "a" person, and there is no way out. It is wrong to hurt others, it is wrong to alienate yourself, and it is wrong to leave it alone. Most of the reforms will be changed to the old way because of the stubborn human nature, so I just go to die, and make a hairy? What a nihility!
"It is this kind of distrust of people that makes it possible for the dictatorship to conquer people and guide people to believe in idols instead of believing in themselves."
You are unfortunate and born to be a human being~~~~
"Birth, according to the traditional meaning of the word, is just the beginning of life in a broader sense. The whole life of an individual is nothing but the process of giving birth to oneself." "Indeed, we should reach the most complete at the time of death. Birth-although the tragic fate of most people died before they gave birth."
(Since many people like the following paragraph, I will add it lengthily.) In the
end, Curtis offered his left hand to block The machine rescued the child, this is a change in his personal values. Gillian gave the actual results of his left hand (not the design of "let the people in the lower carriages retain their humanity and not become uncontrollable beasts") Eric, when he was taken hostage, Curtis finally chose to continue the fight, and let Eric is dead. At that time, what he was thinking was probably the phrase "The sacrifice of the great individual (others) in the revolution is inevitable", but it is precisely this sentence that reveals the hypocrisy of all violent revolutionary leaders-what you believe is also a success. Ten thousand bones are dead, that is, to ignore the rights of individuals and the meaning of life for their own "great cause".
Then, the great perpetual motion machine, the great ark, the gene bank, this movie takes people as an accessory, uses all passengers (even Vilford, he is the guardian of the heart's balance), designs all passengers, and arranges the lives of all passengers Train is not a "great business", so what can't you do if you stay in the bottom car? It is justified for your cruelty.
However, Curtis used his left hand to overthrow the above set of theories. Man is an end, not a means. If a system alienates the individual, then the system is evil, even if it is logical and immortal, safe and reliable. If the individual's life is meaningless to the individual, then the whole system is just a greater nothingness. The greater nothingness cannot save nothingness.
"The goal of history is the complete birth of man and the full development of human nature...According to this concept, God does not give man any gifts. Man must experience many mistakes and setbacks. He sins and suffers from evil consequences. God does not solve anything for man. The question is just to reveal to him the purpose of life. Man must save himself and make himself a man.” (This sentence, please bold it in bold.)
People are stupid, self-righteous, dependent on security, caring for the flesh, vanity, laziness, selfishness, so! Relying on a saint, a superman, and a single idea to solve all problems and save everyone is unrealistic. If someone claims to have such a thing, either he is a despicable liar, or he is wrong, then the ending will not be as good as promised;
but at the same time, people have a conscience, have self-esteem, have IQ, and have countless ghosts. Ideas and tens of thousands of years of experience working with nature (in your genes and instincts), this gives people confidence and the courage to love, and even if the final outcome is not perfect, each individual has the opportunity to save himself (more extensive Birth in the sense) has always been.
According to the standards of humanistic psychology, both social forms are anti-human, and both create mental illness and nihility. However, to propose a new framework for human society, this difficult issue, no matter Rousseau, Marx, Hitler, Lenin, etc., have not been able to find a credible answer based on their knowledge and talents. So neither can the director. The director is just "one" and "person". We kept making mistakes, just like in "Han River Monster", the three young members of that family kept doing some 2B things. In the end, the girl was not saved, but another child was saved.
So, the train is most likely to roll over due to an avalanche or other self-righteous behavior. The survivors may be eaten by bears, and the world and all mankind could not be rescued. It is also possible that you can’t stop it, you are just " "One person", luck and time are blind ass hole but often play a decisive role in the matter. But, because you are "a" "person", please try to save yourself before you die. Your parents didn't give birth to you to make you a "resource" for someone else. The father who lost his right arm looked very stupid. The fat mother died after only one shot, but they loved their children very much.
4. Brave teenagers, even if there is no miracle,
a standard of humanistic psychology, for reference: "The characteristics of mental health are: the ability to love and create; to break free from the incestuous relationship with the tribe and the land; the identity of the person The basis of sense is-to experience that oneself is the subject and motive of one's own power; to be able to grasp the reality inside and outside of oneself, that is, to be able to develop objectivity and rationality."
What do you think is to "save yourself"? How to make you a mentally healthy person. I have no idea. But even if you make mistakes, please don't give up trying and hard work (I think this is what the director wants to say).
Many people think that this movie is a science fiction film with no logical logic, a superficial anti-system movie, and a political movie with no new ideas. Now, what do you think? Brave boy. People can survive the world where bears can survive. What about your self-confidence and self-esteem? Brave boy.
Ps, the theoretical part in the quotation marks of the full text comes from Fromm's "Sound Society". Feng Junhao Xi carried out humanism to the end, and brought humanity back to the original point. Although it is not feasible in reality, "believe" is not something you can rely on no matter how bad the situation is. Something? It is something that supports people to die with a smile. (Ah, a good second sentence. I think of the "Battle Royale I" more than ten years ago. The ending is a pair of boys and girls with knives who become fringe people wandering in the urban jungle. In comparison, this is still the case. Kind and Tiandou's future is more reassuring~~~)
