In the film, the barons, butlers, priests, and doctors as representatives of the German ruling class are all cruel and insidious reactionaries. They do everything: the baron and the steward, the spokesperson of the big landlords and big bourgeoisie, force the farmer to engage in excessive work regardless of the safety of the peasants’ lives. In their farming operations, they illegally occupy most of the fruits of the farmers’ labor. After a farmer died on the job, they did not show even the slightest sympathy and compassion. In their eyes, the life of a farmer was far less than that of an acre of vegetable garden. The importance of coming; the representative doctor of the upper class is a beast with a personal face and an animal heart. In his eyes, any woman, including his own daughter, is a plaything that comes and goes on call for oneself to vent animality; the spokesperson of the gods The pastor is a hard-working hypocrite, full of benevolence, righteousness, and morality. He attempts to use "white ribbons" to stifle young people’s nature in pursuing freedom and progress. He uses the spiritual opium of religion to fool the broad masses of people, and then defends his precarious patriarchy and the dignity of theocracy. In the face of the children's resolute and powerful resistance, the pastor had nothing to do, and even became terrified.
What is gratifying is that under the exploitation and oppression of the reactionary class, a new generation of German youth has begun to awaken and resist. In the film, the children in the village consciously unite around the priest’s daughter Clara, and launched a series of armed riots against the ruling class. They punished the doctor and extremely illegitimate son, whipped the baron’s son, and killed the priest’s pet bird... ...Gives a strong counterattack to the reactionaries. In the face of the children’s organized, planned and conviction resistance, the reactionaries have no power to fight back. The nature of the "paper tiger" is undoubtedly obvious: the doctor flees hastily with his mistress and illegitimate son, and the priest is panicked and dare not face the reality. , The Baron was unable to cope with the resistance from the awakened generation from beginning to end.
It is worth mentioning that, as a representative of bourgeois intellectuals, the teacher in the film fully demonstrated the duality and compromise of small intellectuals. He tried to reconcile the ruling class with the working people, the older generation and the The contradiction between the new youth, the old-fashioned and the revolutionary, he constantly circulates between the children, the police, and the reactionary class, naively thinking that with his own moral admonition, he can resolve the irreconcilable social contradictions. However, the revolution is not a dinner party or a bargaining game. A revolution is a riot, a class struggle, and it is a class that destroys the life of another class. In the face of the iron will and determination of the children, in the face of the corrupt and dark nature of the reactionary class, the reformist road advocated by the teacher is destined to be abandoned by the torrent of history. Only the revolution can save Germany, and only National Socialism can save Germany.
Just when the revolutionary youth were suffering from the lack of broad mass support for the revolutionary cause, World War I broke out at the right time. This melee between the imperialist powers made the German people more aware of the reactionary and greedy nature of the ruling class. , The German government signed various treaties for the loss of power and humiliation, large areas of territory were ceded, a large amount of resources were taken away by foreign powers, and huge war reparations also plunged the lives of the German people into dire straits. It can be said that after the end of the First World War, the social contradictions in Germany have become so acute that they are irreconcilable, and the outbreak of the Nazi Revolution is about to break out.
At the end of the 1920s, the outbreak of the world economic crisis ignited the fuse of the Great Revolution. A large number of factories closed down, a large number of workers were unemployed, and the lives of the people were miserable. Against this background, the "National Socialism" has been adhered to for a long time. The Nazi Party, which advocated the "great rejuvenation of the German nation," gradually gained broad mass support. After years of arduous struggle, it finally seized the national power and established a brand-new Germany.
After seizing power, in order to deal with the economic crisis of the capitalist world, Germany followed the example of the big brother of the Soviet Union: at the economic level, a large number of enterprises were nationalized, and the government unified the national economic development plan, and gave priority to the development of heavy industry, especially the military industry. . At the political and ideological level, the Nazi party’s one-party dictatorship was implemented, and the people were instilled in the idea that “Hitler is the Nazi Party and the Nazi Party is Germany”, and Hitler was portrayed as the great savior of the German nation and promised to the people that the German nation was great. A beautiful blueprint for revival. In the military, we strictly ensure that the "party command guns", require the SS and the National Defense Forces to absolutely accept the leadership of the Nazi Party, where to fight, and require the army to accelerate the pace of mechanization and build a long-victorious division with steel will. , To achieve "use me in the first battle, use me to win." At the same time, Hitler and Stalin also maintained a good personal friendship. The two countries signed the "Mutual Non-aggression Agreement" and the Soviet-German relationship entered the honeymoon period.
In order to achieve the great rejuvenation of the German nation, it is not enough to develop the domestic economy alone. It must also regain the land lost in World War I, protect the territorial integrity of Germany, and complete the great cause of German reunification. For this reason, after building Germany into an efficient war machine, the Nazis tore up all treaties including the "Versailles Treaty" and the "Soviet-German Non-aggression Agreement", launched the European War, and Germany's advanced armored forces swept through. Eurofins is moving step by step towards the goal of establishing the "Third Reich" and realizing the great rejuvenation of the German nation...
