In the series of videos of Guoren Global University, Mr. Lu Qiyuan provided a lot of views on the development problems faced by the East, the West, China and the United States, and how to solve them. I don't have enough knowledge, so I couldn't understand it vividly when I read it and listened to it. Unexpectedly, many of Mr. Lu's arguments and opinions have been confirmed one by one in McMoore's documentary.
First of all, the most obvious one is that after Trump came to power, he used the "slitting" method to create antagonistic emotions among different groups, so as to achieve the purpose of besieging Wei and saving Zhao and diverting the public's attention from the main contradiction. McMoore's view is clearly more pessimistic on this point. It is most prominent in the much-praised clip of Hitler's speech with the audio track of Trump's speech. In McMoore's reasoning, group divisions and antagonisms lead directly to dictatorship, not just centralization.
Then there is the situation of Trump taking office as president, which just shows that the problems of the US political system have a long history, and the freezing of three feet is not a day's cold. The American-style financial monopoly capitalism that formed the Trump phenomenon is hopeless. Decades of corruption and compromise-style prevarication cannot be resolved by electing a veteran politician like Hillary Clinton or Biden as president. Trump's high approval rating shows a kind of helplessness from working-class, ordinary people who are desperate to seek medical treatment, which has actually accelerated the decline of the American dream and is not a solution in any sense. Whether it is within the party (Sanders) or outside the party (Occupy Wall Street and a series of marches and rallies) thinking and trying to break the situation, in the 2020 general election, after Biden came ashore, they all failed. At 1:07:34 of the video, the young female Democratic candidate defines "electoral madness" (don't know what the original English text is, the subtitles are translated as such), and while trying to elect the same person as president again and again, expect the country to become more and more The better, it's obviously an incredibly contradictory pattern of behavior.
Finally, a bit of prophecy, we face the same problem of course choice as the United States. The node given by Mr. Lu is 2030. Before that, if the United States cannot correct its own political organization problems and governance line problems, it will obtain a president who truly cares about the interests of the people rather than the interests of enterprises and big capitalists, and at the same time has sufficient administrative capabilities. If we do, we will face an unprecedented risk of economic crisis and even the risk of national division. Mr. Lu said pessimistically that there is no hope for the United States. But I think maybe the hope lies in the last group of sincere, passionate young people who make real efforts for the gun ban movement and do not seek personal interests.
