It is said that people in China despise each other. Here, I would like to criticize myself:
1. Before going to university, I had never travelled far, and I was instilled with this idea since I was a child—Southern Jiangsu belongs to an economically developed area, The north, Anhui, and the west are all poor. And when I was in college, I still had such a sense of self-superiority in it.
2. Every time I go home during the Chinese New Year or summer vacation, I see those men and women who are migrant workers, and I always don't want to talk to them. Walking on the street and seeing groups of outsiders, I feel disgusted.
3. After I started working, I started doing construction, which was very handy. But after half a year, I suddenly realized that construction is the lowest level in the construction industry... So, I quit my job and found a design job. Begin to be influenced by the people around you - bridges are the real design. So, I don't like to pay attention to those construction units, supervision units...
I often ask myself why this is happening. I say that everyone is equal, but there is still a sense of superiority in the subconscious. Why it's so easy to accept some notions of hierarchy - maybe that's just to my liking.
I often hear other people's evaluation of me - extreme.
In the film, Norton could not be influenced by his relatives and teachers. The fire of racism in his heart was so strong, and he was talking about a set of views at the dinner table. Thinking of himself, how similar.
Norton saw his soul clearly in prison and understood the true concept of right and wrong. After being released from prison, seeing my younger brother was like seeing my former self, but in the end, my younger brother became a funeral object of racism, even though he had repented the night before.
I often say that I am rational, but this rationality is mixed with too much paranoia. It's just that I didn't feed my emotions back into the violence.
I don't want to write anymore, but, after watching the movie, I found out - I'm actually a racist too.
