"The Beggar's Dilemma" To be a "human" or to be a "crowd" - another perspective

There is a "prisoner's dilemma" in game theory, and I dabble in it and call it "the beggar's dilemma".

People always compliment and quote someone saying something. Think that's the truth.
In fact, the reason why that sentence is inspiring makes us excited, the reason why we wait for it, it becomes the word we want to hear. Just because it came out of the mouth of the "right person".

When Gandhi said "be the change you wanna see in the world", we would take out the notebook with tears and write it down; when the beggar under the Haidian Bridge said it, we would take out our mobile phones with tears and dial 110.

When Gandhi spoke, it met our expectations; when the beggar spoke, it exceeded our expectations. Such an excess that he cannot face and bear the fact that he is stronger than himself.

How to allow it? how can that be possible?
So we quickly took up arms and used our social identity as higher than "beggars" to sentence him on "unwarranted" charges.

As a beggar, if he really goes a little deeper and tries to figure out a truth, should he bravely say it to his surroundings, or should he obey and realize the public's expectations and judgments on him, and just put "truth" with many people put a dollar in that basin?


PS: I have always liked the script selected by ROBIN, and he seems to be obsessed with being a teacher... It
's so good to be a teacher, one is more profound than the other. If the Dead Poets Society made me cry, my blood boiled, but this one made me so sad that I didn't even have the strength to cry.

The description of the trickling stream of human nature is so TMD explicit.

I am ashamed.

    The greatest father in the world is great because he knows his child's inferiority but still loves him, not because he loves face to create a beautiful son...
