On the same day, I watched "Dear Comrade" in the morning and "A Woman's Fragment" in the afternoon, and both lost their daughters.
"Pro" reflects on the socialist system of the Soviet Union, and "Women" is about a woman's state after losing a newborn baby.
I always wonder if Westerners are too pretentious and sensitive. For example, the heroine's mother's square dance partner met the heroine in the supermarket and stepped forward to express concern for the heroine, but in the eyes of the heroine, this is a kind of entertainment. The sudden death of her daughter seems like the whole world is sorry for her. Is this politically correct feminism the mainstream value in the West?
I'm thinking, what is it for you to kill a baby, the Soviet Union killed dozens of strike workers, it's not a problem here, and it can completely block the news.
But on second thought, is this the progress of the Western world? Does the West focus more on the individual? Because if the West is ahead of us in terms of economic development and living standards, why do they seem a bit anti-intellectual today? For example, the media always promotes that they do not mandate wearing masks. Why do they do this? Because they care more about individual freedom and individual feelings? And we are more of obeying orders?
In fact, there are many similarities between people in the two systems, but one allows them to express their dissatisfaction and the other does not.
