"No one likes being alone, but they just don't want to be disappointed."

2019.03.13 "Green Book" was the first time I watched a movie alone. A long time ago, there were countless thoughts of watching a movie by myself, but after all, I was afraid of being alone. Until the release of "Green Book", this idea came back. As it turns out, I've fallen in love with being alone. More often, I like to hang out alone, the scenery I see on the road, the people I see, I would like to share it with others, but when I think about it, others will not be able to appreciate it.

After watching the movie, there is only one sentence and one picture in my mind: "There are too many lonely people in the world who are afraid to make the first move." The world's full of lonely people afraid to make the first move.

It was Tang Dayu who shouted:

"If I am not black enough, and if I'm not white enough, and if I am not man enough, then tell me, what am I?"

Seeing this scene, tears rolled in my eyes. It was Tang's emotional outburst that had been suppressed for a long time, and he was lonely. However, as Haruki Murakami said, "No one likes being alone, but they just don't want to be disappointed."

All men are born equal and free. Life is lonely.

    My vulgar cutie is about to pry open your austere, elegant and defensive world.

    Although it is not interesting, I can still read it all in one go... Maybe the hypocrisy caused by "political correctness" is still much better than the substantial harm caused by "political incorrectness". Suppose there is a white man who is full of hatred for black people, but under the pressure of "political correctness" of public opinion, he is still very polite to black people, and he never dared to insult or make fun of them publicly. Under such circumstances, I think what this white man embodies is precisely the meaning of civilization and enlightenment. Overcorrection may sometimes be a necessary stage of social progress.
