When parasitic beasts began to threaten the power of human beings to dominate the world, both parasitic beasts and humans began to think, why are people human, and why do parasitic beasts exist? What is the meaning of human existence?
After watching it once, I re-watched the next few episodes roughly, and each episode has different interpretations of why people are human. When his girlfriend rebuked the murderer for being worse than a monster, he said: Cherish all life to be worthy of being a human being; when the male protagonist wanted to hand over the fate of the shattered parasitic beast to the sky, he said: Unwilling to kill any life is the last thing God left to mankind Treasure; the old lady who lives alone in the mountains is worried and the impulsive male protagonist instructs him: Even people who have never known each other, once they know each other, they can't ignore them. This is human beings.
In the eyes of the parasitic beast Xiaoyou, humans are very strange and contradictory existences. When any creature is born, there is a principle of survival: to live, to do nothing for survival, so personal interests are higher than those of the same kind, and it seems to be an unquestionable truth, but human beings often make actions that go against this. . The reason why human beings can take into account the lives of others is that Xiaoyou understands that human beings are creatures that can survive independently and do not need to rely on others, so their minds are leisurely. But in my opinion, human beings are guided by higher values.
However, whether people's value guidance is correct at present, people's so-called protection of the earth seems to be a concept of a greater self that is detached from oneself, but it is questionable whether people keep protecting the earth just to protect human beings. If you really agree that all living beings are equal, it is not just for the prosperity of a single human race, but for the entire ecology. What should humans do? This show is really worth watching.
P.S. Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are regarded as dogs. Anyway, I don’t want to leave my fate to the gods to judge. I will struggle.
