Political terror

Very annoying pseudo-documentary technique, the camera shakes constantly, the picture is halted, and the frames are dropped and worn out, trying to become the exclusive secret of surveillance video in the 1960s and 1970s, but only after more than an hour Look dizzy. This movie tries to tell us that on the lifeless surface of the moon, there are actually countless alive stone crabs lurking-these inorganic life can adapt to dehydration and anaerobic, endure lack of good, they may have lived alone on the moon for hundreds of millions of years. , But their survival is not without purpose: one of them is to get into the bodies of those astronauts from the earth at an unexpected moment and cause trouble, by the way, the advanced technology costing trillions of dollars will be defeated. For the next forty years, "Hu people dare not go south to herd horses." Our fear of the primordial primordial emptiness of the unknown, more or less has its own ingredients to scare ourselves.

When the two American astronauts discovered the footprints of the third party, they realized that this is not just a precise and pure scientific mission. In that empty and closed unfamiliar environment, their hostility to the outside world is also infinitely magnified in the secret room. Looking at the red five-star LOGO and CCCP runes, the imaginary enemy set by the Cold War mentality is the Soviet Union. The evil empire that secretly deployed missiles in Cuba certainly did not come to show kindness. It may have come so far to the moon so far, maybe it must have come to smash the glass of the US space shuttle; later, as time goes by, look. Wearing a Soviet aerospace helmet with a shattered mask, the government conspiracy theory has pinned the powerful and invisible American state machine into a new evil: the protagonist mentions Nixon’s discovered conspiracy and tricks, and how many conspiracies and tricks have not been discovered. Yes, the protagonists face invisible surveillance cameras, and the free Americans realize for the first time that they may also be just guinea pigs. Finally, when the astronauts finally faced those incomprehensible life forms and collapsed and perished in a weak environment, the political terror created by the film was finally pushed to the culmination: Chapter 28 of the Old Testament: Genesis , God’s privilege granted to people is to "fill the ground, govern this land; manage all living creatures." This is the political correctness that almost all trends of thought preliminarily acquiesce in advance, and it is also a fait accompli that has been determined at the beginning of human civilization. "Spore" wishfully imagined a completely pacifist space civilization model, which I think is impossible for humans. Because we are accustomed to steak, bacon, and hairy crabs, we are happy to crack down on the low-level animals we like or dislike. Speaking of the universal values ​​among the species we know, there is no equality here, only the relationship between who eats who. If one day human beings can rush out of the atmosphere to see infinitely different kinds of life, "we are here for peace" is just a scene, and the first thing to consider behind the scenes must be the problem of openness. For example, whether it is cracked, and how to prevent it from being cracked.
