In essence, everyone is the same. After taking power, they attacked their former enemies. It was only 30 years after West Germany demonized the original East Germany that such slightly objective and perspective-neutral cultural works appeared. Human nature is like this. The West, which talks about freedom of speech, is still playing "political correctness". For the speeches they don't like, they are still not allowed to publish it publicly. In the 1990s, when West Germany had just annexed East Germany, West Germany had not completely digested East Germany, nor had it consolidated its rule. The ruling West Germany will definitely not allow such works.
Just like this play, the second generation of West German officials is an ignorant young man who broke down in the rich material life and under the shadow of the general's father. Days, and it is easy to be used by the enemy, and has no sense of responsibility for their own camp. The second generation of officials in East Germany not only appeared to be more mature at the same age, but also did not actually rely on their elders' positions to seek benefits (he was a small soldier), and what his aunt found for him through relationships was a risky life. Dangerous and high-risk undercover positions, not only did not benefit from the family, but instead took greater risks and assumed higher responsibilities because they were the second generation of officials.
It is also interesting to compare the senior officials of East Germany and West Germany, NATO and the Soviet Union's joint intelligence agencies. Western officials, in the daytime, talk about destroying their opponents to protect themselves first, and go to prostitutes behind their wives and children at night. , to fuck with the female secretary. And senior officials of the East German and Soviet intelligence agencies also brought a little "privilege" of West German coffee when going back and forth between East and West Germany. Son, but put it aside to do idle work and get paid by the state).
The two second-generation officials and two officials in the play are obviously beautifying the second-generation officials and officials of the Communist Party, while vilifying the second-generation officials and officials in the West. The current Germany is essentially because it is the winner of the Cold War, annexed East Germany, and after 30 years of vilifying East Germany and brainwashing it completely wiped out the influence of East Germany, it is only from the position of the winner that there is no more It has no effect on the interests of Germany today, just as China today allows good words about the Qing Dynasty to beautify the Qing Dynasty. Because I am not afraid of this dead historical image to grab the class and seize power.
Therefore, political struggle has always been cruel. When the opponent is threatened, it is necessary to vilify the opponent. Only when the opponent is dead and there is no threat at all can it be allowed to speak good words about the dead historical figures. ——The so-called objectivity, the so-called freedom of speech, is nothing more than self-deception freedom, and the freedom to fool the opponent into allowing himself to penetrate the opponent's thinking camp.
