It may not be appropriate to say so. I remember watching a domestic theme movie "The Sound of Wind" a few years ago, where the Kuomintang tortured the Communist heroine starring Zhou Xun as these cruel methods. How to explain the motive of the perpetrator? When they were destroying the same kind, they did not regard the tortured people as human beings, and their every move was a humiliation to the beasts. Such law enforcers, in fact, have no reverence for the law in their hearts, and their actions are just a leak of their dark psychology. The content of law is rights and obligations, but under the alienation of power, people without morality regard power as a force without boundaries, without considering that they should also be restrained. The "principle of man" in Western Christianity is: Treat others the way you want others to treat you. Our education is "do not do to others what you do not want to do to yourself". But these people reasoned the question with the logic of negation, and their logic was: I have a special status, why this as myself must be treated as if I were someone else when someone else can't treat me exactly the way I treat him way to act? (This is what Rousseau said in Emile, literally why does this as myself have to act as if I were another person, if I could basically never get myself into his situation?) But The so-called will of God is not so simple. The person you are dealing with may not have the ability to pay you back for your actions, but the people who grew up in the environment your actions fostered will pay you back in your way. Therefore, when we see Wen Qiang putting one foot on a person's head and posing for a big pose, we can basically guess his fate, and we don't have to listen to the rumors in the rivers and lakes that the person who was trampled said ruthlessly" You are more crippled than I am." Sure enough, there was a stronger Wang Lijun who used stronger means than Wen Qiang to deal with him, and he took care of more people, but Wang Lijun did not accept the lesson and thought he was "specially selected" ” In the end, he was injured by the sword, and had to abandon the sword to seek protection outside the system.
Therefore, I believe that a legal concept, a moral obligation and a reverence for the law are the most important, and strict compliance is the minimum premise, regardless of whether it is a good law or a bad law.
Not to sing praises for the Nazis, but such views may not be the subject of the film.
