The reality is not so exaggerated, and the real experiment that took place in the United States did not hurt anyone's life. Perhaps the German director has passed under the totalitarian rule, so the force should be stronger. "Goodbye Lenin", "Eavesdropping Storm" and "The Destruction of the Empire", these series of films all make people feel too strong.
When I watched this film, I kept thinking about a problem, that is, the shock this film brought to us may not be the same as that brought to people in other countries. For people in our country, you will feel that this movie is demonized, but for European and American audiences, it may be shocking. I think it's a difference based on a psychological basis. Society/society/ism/righteousness, collective/collective/ism/righteousness, for us, just like Western religions, in many cases it is not you who choose your beliefs, but your beliefs/religions that choose you, you Growing up in such a cultural environment from birth, you are accustomed to all these ideologies/forms, this is your living habit, and you have nothing to question.
This is like the Islamic/Sis/Lan Muslims, they form a nation because of their religion/religion, belief/belief is innate to them, any custom that we think is absurd and unreasonable is normal to them of. Then if you create a work based on them, I think the shock to outsiders is definitely different from that to them. Like the British movie "Four Lions", we laugh out loud, but it is an insult to Islamists.
The teacher in the film taught anarchy/ism courses before, which can be regarded as two extremes from the extreme/authoritarian/ism/ism courses. One pursues absolute equality and the other pursues absolute freedom. The result can only be disaster. He used to listen to Mr. Qin Hui's lectures on equality and freedom. He said that it all stems from the fear of human nature. The fear of future uncertainty makes people choose high equality and high welfare to protect themselves, while the fear of human rights being oppressed makes people choose People seek unfettered freedom. Everyone has their own criteria for choosing between equality and freedom, and it is impossible for anyone to only need one of them. Therefore, a good society should satisfy everyone's appetite as much as possible. It is up to people to judge for themselves if they are slightly biased. The votes for the Democratic Party or the Republican Party, as for the Liberal Party and the Green Party, let's take a break.
There is a kid in the film who committed suicide at the end, he can't stand the shattering of ideals, which reminds me of Goebbels, he poisoned his own kids because he couldn't imagine them living in a state/society/ism World.
The teacher was taken away in the end, I think because these children are underage and belong to some people with capacity. Because if it's an adult, I don't think the teachers are at fault because the whole experiment is open and everyone can choose to join and leave without any coercion. As Hitler said in The Destruction of an Empire: The people chose this path, and it is time for them to pay for it.
Paul Johnson has a book called "Intellectuals", and there is a sentence on the back cover of the book: "Be wary of humanistic intellectuals, and even more wary of Jacobin-style humanistic intellectuals with power tendencies. If they combine right/doctrine/righteousness, they may impose their whims on others. At that time, instead of leading people astray, they force people to follow the 'right way'".
I don't think it's all down to intellectuals.
