The metaphor of precision at the end of the play

Cute animals suffer every day. Their living environment is messy. There is no food, no shelter, and no care. These are forgotten creatures. These cute animals who have been abused and neglected bear the pain alone and live in fear. Please don't forget them, extend your helping hand and tell these animals that you will help them. Make a call or log on to the website, and send out grant gifts every month. For only $18 a month, you have the opportunity to rescue these animals from the abyss of despair and rescue them from their painful lives. What a beautiful picture, isn't it? However, this advertisement is only the political correctness of the world, the most hypocritical aspect of the world that the world wants to show. That is,'sympathy for dissidents' and'Although I disagree with your views, I swear to defend your right to speak'. Fuck that, We never did it, we just talked about it. After 9/11, people hated and avoided every Muslim, as if they were all murderers of suicide attacks. People saw the sores on John's feet as if they had hit the disease itself, for fear of avoiding it. But blood cannot be chosen, and disease cannot be avoided. But people do alienate others because of things they cannot choose. This is the self-protection given to us by our genes. However, the illusion called morality does not make us surpass ourselves most of the time, it just makes us feel good about ourselves. The indifference of others in the play is the spiritual link shared by Khan and John. John sees Khan as a part of his own projection in his heart. All Khan is suffering, he has also suffered, or will suffer, so John can put himself in to help. he. The abuse and neglect of stray cats and dogs is mostly man-made, but advertising can turn it into a sympathetic display. Why donate 18 dollars instead of adopting them back, and really give stray cats and dogs a home, so that they can escape the pain? Because you can move your fingers to be moved by your own kindness. What a bargain business. Zizek cited such an example in "From Tragedy to Farce". He said that the current form of capitalism is essentially a kind of "cultural capitalism." This kind of "cultural capitalism" refers to some moral orientations that appeared in consumer behaviors after the 1960s, such as protecting the environment while making profits, or returning to the society in the form of charity while making money, that is, " When you consume, you also fulfill the consumer's responsibility for the social environment." He gave an example of Starbucks here. When you walk into any Starbucks, when you buy a cup of coffee, you also buy Starbucks' "Coffee Fair". It claims that we are more fair than any other company in buying coffee beans, and that a part of the profit in every cup of coffee is used to improve the community environment and rules of small farmers who grow coffee beans. Therefore, what you buy is not only Just a cup of coffee, and the atonement after you contributed to capitalism, and even an illusion that it has improved the world. (To understand this example, a consensus is needed, that is, capitalism has created more poor people and greatly exacerbated the gap between rich and poor.) Why do we sit around the TV when there is something pitiful for poor people on TV? Will deeply sympathize and condemn the bad person, rather than really understand the matter and help that person. Because you can let others know that we are loving and kind without just moving our lips; because we buy a cup of coffee We can give a little love to this world and make us feel good. It's a bargain. No, we are not what we imagined, and the world has never been as beautiful as it is shown on TV. But at the end of the play, after this cold and precise metaphor, John picked up the cat that couldn't bear his illness, and it paced slowly in John's house. You may never change the world, but it makes you warm when knowing that some can change themself at least.
