The drama I ordered before going to bed at night, to be honest, the plot and characters are not my favorite type. I thought I would give up watching an episode, but I am actually very interested. After watching the first season, I still have no idea. But my point of interest is not in love or family history at all, but more about the development of the entire mining industry in the UK at that time and the fate of ordinary people. The show started at the end of the 18th century. In my impression, the UK at that time was an idyllic existence in "Pride and Prejudice". Even Downton Abbey, which was a little down, was exquisite~~ But the UK presented in "Poldark" But I have never seen one side: the declining nobles without sympathy, the rising greedy bankers, the starving people who are hungry, the miners who are no worse than slaves... The hierarchy of nobles and commoners is unimaginable; bankers ignore Famine only knows how to store grain + maximize profits; hungry people will be so hungry that they will riot and grab food; the life of a miner is not as good as that of a prey in a noble garden... Now every time we watch British and American dramas, we always sigh that even people are serving dishes. They all live with dignity~~ Then what happened in the past 200 years to bring about such a big change? I think this show shows the source of this answer: the emergence of bankers and the decline of the nobility. On the one hand, the nobility does not regard the commoners and workers as the same people as them; on the other hand, the nobility needs to rely on more exploitation of commoners and special It is the workers who maintain its precarious family. This very contradictory state has also intensified the rise of the consciousness of the working class, the establishment of trade unions and so on~~ and the declining aristocrats like Poldark realize that it is unfair to the common people and workers... and then it took many generations to get what it is today. relatively equal. picture
Although slavery was abolished in the United States as early as 1865, racial segregation still prevails in the American South. The law clearly stipulates that blacks and whites must be separated in public places such as buses and restaurants, and blacks must give up their seats to whites. In the North, legally recognized racial discrimination also kept blacks out of many industries and communities. It was not until the 1960s that the black affirmative movement achieved a landmark victory through persistent political protest. From the early discovery of homosexuality to prison or compulsory treatment to the legal marriage of homosexuals, there are also many people's efforts to achieve equal rights. Much of the equality and power we take for granted today is actually the result of many generations of relentless affirmative action.
I read the US news earlier to ridicule China's two-child policy, and the content is roughly: "The American people don't understand why this policy suddenly came, so they ask, is this two-child policy a bottom-up expression of the people's will? No; that is Did you ask for it through the street parade? It's not; just because they said so.
My point is, except for some unexpected policies that you may or may not want, all the beautiful world you expect is achieved little by little by many people and generations, and the efforts of each individual are converged Become a force to bring about a little change; on the contrary, if each individual feels that it has nothing to do with themselves, it will be difficult for change to come ~ Some people may say that you are too idealistic, if there is no such a little idealism, then Everyone may still live in a few rich and powerful lives, and most of us still live a slave-like life with no freedom and no dignity at all. Originally, when the news of the Chinese Academy of Sciences came out, many people were still very puzzled. Isn't it Kochi? There will also be such a problem: the mind and body are not under their control. Well, it is not surprising to me that this kind of thing happened in the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Straight male cancer exists widely regardless of educational background. Another way of thinking is that no matter how many books you read in China, it is difficult to get rid of the inexplicable sense of superiority that exists in men. The saddest thing is that women also assist and are willing to sacrifice everything; recently I saw a ayawawa, which is simply materializing and dwarfing women in the cloak of pseudo-psychology: why women still have to fight for their husbands, I'm embarrassed to say what a pregnant boyfriend cheated on and told his parents to force him to marry you, what the best way to deal with preeclampsia...
To quote dear Julie Delpy: "Women explore for eternity in the vast garden of sacrifice. I don't wanna be one of these women. Like marriage is important to gays, or contraception to women rights. It's the same with giving up my hopes, with millions of women that had to give up hopes. I'm not gonna do it. This is bigger than me. This means more than me.”
In fact, with my personality, I can tolerate and understand the whole universe. Why don't I let my husband go? Even if I have prepared for the worst, I have to do something with him on some principled things? Because the person with the advantage will not know it, and you need to keep telling him. Because "This is bigger than me. This means more than me."
Recently, I heard a good friend's husband talk about the reason for having a second child: "Our leader's wife is 47 years old and is preparing for a second child because her daughter has already gone to college, and she has nothing to do at home every day.". I'm really scared to pee, okay~~ This sentence has been haunted in my mind this week. I regret that I didn't insist on learning a musical instrument or craft that I can do well; I regret that I didn't insist on a hobby that I can dig deeper into; I have gone through countless times in my head, what can I do when Chenchen goes to college? --subtitle group? (My English doesn't seem to be that good); Specially helping people make travel plans? (This is the hobby that I think I can develop recently.); Do you recommend movies and TV series from the media? (Okay, this is the reason why after I was scared to pee, I bit my head and typed all night: if the language is not good, shouldn’t I practice it first?)
Finally, I also borrowed Liu Ruilin, editor-in-chief of the Ideal Country Publishing House, on how to view women and age: "Actually, Chinese people, especially Chinese women, have a short life, and they gave up on themselves at a very young age. I know Some girls, I will often remind them, I said that you should not give up your life as soon as you get married and have children. In fact, if you don’t have a real spiritual pursuit, it is almost equivalent to giving up. I think this is something that women need to be especially vigilant about. I don't care about my age anymore, I don't care if men like me anymore, I care about my value as a person, I care about my abstract life, a life without gender, how much this value will be."
