self defense

For the disadvantaged groups that are discriminated against, hundreds of years of efforts have not been able to fully integrate into the world of white people. What is the so-called equal treatment of black people in a free country in the United States?

The Xinjiang Gang has a bad reputation across the country, so are we discriminating against them? Are we afraid of them? Divide this kind of thing? Not my race?

It's very confusing to type casually, but in fact, I think the best movie to explain this point of view is "CRASH", without any partiality, to discuss this impossible problem from the perspective of human nature, it is something that requires both parties to work hard at the same time, that way things are actually difficult.


The final major theme of the film is morality. In fact, morality does not require norms, it is self-cultivation. The success or failure of a country depends on the morality of the whole people. But it’s not that things like virtue become virtue because everyone does it.

I heard from a colleague that the girl who was chasing the thief on the road kept asking passersby for help, but no one paid any attention. The students who saw the injustice were violently beaten, but no one cared about it, including the parties involved silently walked away. What's this? This requires the virtue of the whole people. What would I do if I moved from place to place? I'll be a silent person too? Yes, why?

It's a film about debate, a black self-defense, an indictment of inequality, and I'm talking about morality, which is off topic.
