When false is true, true is also false. Can An Neng distinguish me as false and true?

As a stubborn fan who has fallen under the pomegranate skirt of "Black Mirror" since the first season, I have to say, director and screenwriter, your psychological and philosophical skills are really deep. I am really excited now after watching the special Christmas episode, and the level of this episode has returned to the peak level of the first season! I love this kind of drama that tests IQ most.
This episode seems to have climaxes and is dizzying, but in fact it revolves around the three themes of [real] [consciousness] and [contact]. The above keywords are repeatedly mentioned by the two male protagonists in the play. and.

The first section: The social mentor escapes and
communicates:
The "social mentor" who is proficient in psychology knowledge in the film is actually an evolutionary version of the current bubble study (PUA) and love mentor. The mentor has evolved directly through the mentor. "Smart eyes" point to the maze. A group of male dicks watching and learning on the small screen hints to the audience that there are not a few people who need mentors, and business is booming. Ironic reality: The men nowadays are becoming more and more accustomed to hiding behind blocks of "black mirrors", and they are less and less daring to walk out the door to meet their favorite girls in real life.
Consciousness:
Directly see everything the other person can see through the "smart eye", so that you can tell the other person how to do it. If you think carefully, there is a feeling that the teacher's soul is possessed by Luthor, and the consciousness of the teacher and Luthor are coexisting. . So now the question is here: It is the teacher's consciousness that helps Luther male hook up with his sister; after the sister gets his hands, the teacher can't replace him to communicate with the sister for the rest of his life. What should I do next? And when they live together, who is the subject of consciousness and who is the "duplicate of consciousness" mentioned repeatedly in the film?
Awareness is a very important and cutting-edge field in psychology, and it is also a concept that has not yet been clearly defined. The carrier of consciousness, the human brain, is the most complicated thing known in the universe, and human research on it is still at a very superficial stage. Therefore, brain science and cognitive neuroscience are currently the most cutting-edge disciplines in the scientific world. The winners of the 2014 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine this year are all scientists in the field of cognitive neuroscience.
We are accustomed to thinking that I am consciousness, and consciousness is a complete unity; however, there are also studies and doctrines that believe that consciousness is a collective body. In our daily life, we often have the feeling of "different ideas fighting each other in the brain". In fact That's it. I am not one of the specific thoughts, but all the thoughts are me. Together they are the complete me.
From this point of view, neither the mentor nor the Lutheran’s consciousness is distinguished between primary and secondary, and they can coexist as one.
The idea of ​​the beauty who killed the Luther man reminds me of George Orwell’s "Nineteen Eighty Four" and the movie "V for Vendetta". The director here secretly expressed his desire for freedom of speech and his dissatisfaction with government control. The audience must have laughed.
Reality:
The discussion of "reality" is also involved here. For the girl, all the actions, words and deeds of Lutheran whom the instructor pointed out were false. But what we can only see is the face, and we can't get into the other's head. How can we find out the truth? The so-called "the human heart is separated from the belly", "the human heart is unfathomable", and the "wall-facer" in the novel "Three-Body 2" are all about this.

The second subsection: The real professional
communication of the hero of the Diaobo Tian :
The concept of "block" is mentioned here, and it has been mentioned repeatedly since then. "Block" is the antonym of "contact". The use of this intelligent function satirizes the decline in human communication ability, and completely ignores the Cold War on behalf of people if they are inconsistent. Humans have created high technology, but in the process of using high technology, humans are becoming more and more indifferent and more like machines.
Consciousness:
The beauty who received the treatment was extracted a "conscientious copy", and finally the "conscientious copy" was obediently tamed and became the unconditional service/enslavement object of the so-called "conscious subject" in her body.
I noticed a key point: when the copy of consciousness was first extracted, it thought it was consciousness itself. People have to think: Is consciousness infinitely separable? Like cell division, each separated copy is completely equivalent to the original consciousness, and then there is no so-called beginning and end.
It also involves the dualism of "spirit and flesh" that has been debated throughout human history. Leaving the body, are we still not me? When the copy clamoring "I am me" saw its own body lying on the bed in the bedroom, even it itself was frightened. If one day our consciousness can be copied and placed in another person whose appearance is completely different from our own...how can we prove that we are the real me?
Reality: The
dungeon of consciousness that has surrendered obediently turns into an intelligent steward, and arranges the daily schedule of the "I" that carries the subject of consciousness. No one is more suitable than it, because it understands all the needs of "me" best. Looking forward to the extreme of artificial intelligence in reality, what is it?
In this way, "my" life will be perfect, from the time of waking up, the temperature of the room, who is active with each day, and spending a "meaningful" day. It's sad to think about it, some nothingness. What is the truth about the arranged life, and what about free will?
In the process of taming the dungeon of consciousness, when it was idled for five days and X months, it finally couldn't bear to hurry up and ask for a job (job).
The word "Job" is also a key word throughout the play.
For example, in the first dialogue in the opening story:
-"It's a job, not a jail."
-"Often one and the same thing." The
director and screenwriter convey his point of view through this second section:
people He had to find something to do, he had to find "meaning", he couldn't bear the life of being alone in confinement, that would make him completely collapse and fall into nothingness. Only by working day after day can we fill our lives.
The work of the consciousness copy is to take care of the daily needs of the
consciousness subject ; the work of the consciousness subject is to live a well-arranged life for the consciousness copy.

The third section: The silent male protagonist opens Chrysostom first-this is a sad story
exchange:
The infatuated male protagonist was killed by the green tea female ticket block, and Xidang's father finally found out that he was cuckold for several years.
The length of the block here is much longer than the one hour that the social mentor was blocked by his wife in the first section, which deeply reflects the harm of cold violence to people's hearts.
Why can't you calm down and communicate well, break up and call for divorce at every turn?
The screenwriter is insinuating this point.
Consciousness & Reality:
This section completely pushes the discussion of consciousness to a climax, and captures the feeling of "Inception".
The awesome male protagonist uttered words from the silent male protagonist’s copy of consciousness. As the most severe punishment, the silent male protagonist’s copy of consciousness was forever trapped in the hut. The radio that can never be smashed symbolizes never ending. The repetition and nihility of human beings are like Sisyphus who is always pushing the stone.
The key prop "Crystal Ball" of the complete works was finally revealed there.
(The author’s intuition has strengthened recently. As soon as the opening crystal ball of this episode appeared, I knew it was an important clue, and it would definitely appear again. The powerful subconsciousness really
became more and more effective with the use of it!) And we, in the end, are living in Which floor is the crystal ball?
In fact, most people don't like truth, and truth is not necessarily good and beautiful. Real, more often, cruel.
