Years ago, after 9/11, this tragic incident in Norway shocked the world. The lone wolf attack tells us that the terrorist attack never goes away.
Now, Greenglass gives us the opportunity to look at what happened, and after.
Lone wolves are people who live for only one " reason ", and that " reason " is to declare their " view/purpose " to " everyone ". A lone wolf attack is precisely the quickest way to achieve the " everyone " part of the " reason " ; self-speaking in court and self-incrimination are also platforms to achieve the " view/purpose " part of the " reason " . Everything else is a means, laughing at the camera, the Nazi military salute, is his means, what is effective and what is efficient, they choose what; without any doubt, if they grasp the nuclear button, they will press it without hesitation.
The opposite of the lone wolf is the whole world; the victims, the families, the government, the media, the judges, and every one of us in front of the screen. In fact, even if we pull the whole world, it is difficult to say that we can easily deal with lone wolves, because using lone wolves to deal with lone wolves cannot be our choice; and a fair trial is the only weapon. You have to be careful, walking on thin ice to prevent this only weapon from being turned by the lone wolf. This kind of helplessness shrouded the audience through the screen, and I was still glad that we won in the end.
The victim may be any individual in this world; everything about you has no causal relationship with this disaster; but as long as you are unlucky, everything about you will be completely changed. You don't prepare anything for this kind of catastrophe, because you have your life; but fate happens, and under Greenglass' uncritically realistic lens, the collective personality of the group is revealed. When disaster strikes, they panic and flee for their own lives; there is no resistance, no sacrifice, and no hero; in the trial, compared with the almost morbid calm of the lone wolf, most of the survivors of the victims have the courage to go to court. no. Fortunately, there are always some people whose thoughts and actions light up our lights. They are equally frightened and overwhelmed in the face of disasters; they will also cry and even despair; but it is precisely the purpose and means of the lone wolf that finally makes them choose to face it firmly, face the eyes and arrogance of the lone wolf, and face the family members. , facing their future; instead of succumbing to the sudden fate, they returned to their own lives. Lone wolves are completely abandoned, they have lost their families, they have no friends; they have staked everything on their opinions, never had a market, never had an audience.
Another respectable group are lawyers, who are the line of defense to ensure the impartiality of the only weapon. They gave the lone wolf a second chance; at the same time, they also stood by their value judgments. As lawyers, the social profession of the Holy Spirit, they adhere to their own professional ethics and perform their duties faithfully; the court they maintain has left the lone wolf an opportunity to know society and self again, and has given victims a fulcrum to stand up .
Everyone, at any time, has a choice, perhaps this is the greatest freedom and power that our age has given us!
Best of the Year!
