The kappa in Akutagawa Ryunosuke's novel can choose whether to be born into the world or not, but in reality people do not have the freedom to choose to be born. "Since our life is given by our parents and accepted unconditionally and passively, can we have the right to choose our own death?" This is the lyrics of the waist. Suicide is illegal in almost all countries, but Japan has a cultural heritage that admits suicide, and they admit abdominal cutting. People have the right to choose death, which is a great freedom. Freedom is something that will flood. Institutional laws are used to constrain society because human nature is really scary, and there is no other word for it. Sexual behavior of children under the age of 14 in China is rape, and children do not have the freedom to choose sex. India developed this freedom, so there will be so many child prostitutes. Are they free, they are being freed. The same goes for America’s liberalization of guns and Brazil’s liberalization of marijuana.

If you are not free, you want to riot and revolution, but freedom breeds evil.

Is Qian Qianyan's daughter-in-law in "Cut the Belly" a free choice to die? It is really sad that he died in an ugly human being magnified by freedom, without the freedom to choose birth and death. But it is this unreasonable freedom that protects human beings

Because people are scumbags
