Is it an American political propaganda film? Or an anti-war propaganda film? It seems that there are three lines, but in fact there are two lines, one is the entanglement of the political consciousness of the upper class, and the other is the collision of the views of the lower class people. The upper echelons exposed the media’s role in promoting the war, as well as the cold and rejoicing attitude of think tanks towards the war. From the story of a professor and three students, the lower level shows the attitude of war participants (mostly people of color) and people who eat melons (mostly whites) towards war. One angle is to beautify the American war of aggression against other countries and promote a kind of heroism that dares to practice the so-called ideal. The other angle will also exaggerate some narrow anti-war sentiments, that is, sacrificing aspiring young people for the ambitions of politicians. The shortcomings of the film, the language expression is too much, and it is relatively boring.
In fact, for war, idealists, cynics, realists, and nihilists each have their own standpoints and objective environments. They have different perceptions over time and at the macro and micro levels, as well as their own The difference between survival and interest patterns will naturally show various attitudes. In the eyes of realists, looking at war from the perspective of short-term interests, the upper-level needs performance, the lower-level needs treatment, the media needs hot spots, arms dealers need the market, and the people who eat melons need to vent their emotions; looking at war from the perspective of long-term interests, national development needs Strategic space, politics needs to strengthen the ruling advantage to transfer domestic contradictions, the economy needs war consumption stimulus, and nationalism needs a carrier. In many cases, many people put on gorgeous altruism for their true desires or goals, such as patriotism, heroism, humanism, pacifism, etc., affirm or deny war and become cynics. Cynicism is also due to the need to gather different cognitive groups, or to use the power of different cognitive groups, and the conversion of thoughts and deeds adopted, hypocrisy? Is the camera acting right? It all depends on their respective positions. Of course, there are also pure idealists who are purely subjective and nihilists who ignore reality. War is like a duel field, cruel inside and emotions outside. In the ideological trend of war, there are only obedience and rebellion, and no one can tell whether it is politically dominated or because of public opinion. The tiny us may be annihilated in it, or linger under it, or greedy on it, or far away from it.
Nowadays, the disputes between China and the United States in the South China Sea and the Taiwan Strait are raging. Both sides are constantly showing strength. The shadow of the war is getting closer and closer. I hope that more people in the two countries will see the pain of the war and not abuse the concepts of democracy, freedom and nationalism. Destroy everything that several generations have worked so hard to create. In human history, war is the most extreme and inhumane reconstruction process, and it is a manifestation of the law of entropy increase that seems to have human will.
