If love is the end, violence is the best means at this stage.
In the middle of the night, it was moderately rainy, and I suddenly got up, walked through the road without people, turned the window to the dark design room, drew red dates and sorted out spewing thoughts. At this time, I felt that I really loved myself.
What is love? If we talk about 100% pure love, I think its first characteristic should be acceptance. Only acceptance without rejection can have pure love. Obviously, the love at this stage is not this kind of love.
Violence and love here are in a broader sense. Let’s talk about the scope of “violence” that I want to emphasize, using the attitude of the bottom half of “violence” to do the first half of things, that is, a respectful day. Make things the way we want them. When we try to make changes to things, clean and simple actions, emotional and delicate speech, quotations, powerful logical interpretations, these are nothing but tools. We feel that this thing should be like that, or if it is like that, we feel comfortable. So we chose different tools to change it. In this way, all kinds of violence have become a way to show love, and love is mixed with our violent changes to things.
Throughout the film, I saw people show different loves with different violence.
In order to love himself and to love his wife in the future, Juan initially used the violent form of "liing to you idiots" to achieve his goal. When he learned that his wife was unfortunately killed and faced the embarrassment of being exposed, he simply used it. The most direct way is to "fire" the warden's violence to fulfill these loves. In the end, when he finds that good people can't do it, or the respectful way doesn't work, he chooses to become a violent leader more courageous than Scar.
Scar, from start to finish, is a character full of love. After making Juan Lu JJ go around in a routine routine, he let him step down and then give him underwear to wear.
Scar: Big head, get him some clean underwear to wear.
Big head: Why don't you give him your own.
Hu: Keep that one (referring to the camera)
Scar: Which one? Panties?
He sympathizes with Mora, who committed suicide because he was not treated, and he never forgets to complete the meeting between Juan and his wife. The entire violent movement he led was to allow prisoners to be better treated. And his performance method is the most direct and primitive violence.
In the end, these two loving characters became victims of another kind of violence. This "love" is the balance of classes. "This kind of crisis solution will never satisfy everyone, but I believe that we have reached a balance overall... Personally, my biggest regret is not being able to get Juan out alive." Calm statement from the negotiator , Gave a rational explanation to the violence of this "balanced love".
Drinking a cup of tea, listening to a song, going out for a walk, and finding a quiet place for a meeting. At best, these methods of love are just to relieve the pain of lack of love. After alleviation, you will have to suffer. And the love recognized by the mainstream at this stage should be bold, violent love for oneself, and violent love for others. But don't forget, its essence is still violence.
Don't think that a little love is not violence. There is no violent love, unconditional love, and it is still just an ideal product.

Fear
Another thing that cannot be ignored is fear.
At the beginning, the bearded Xiaopang who symbolized the good from beginning to end told Juan, "When you face them, stare into their eyes, and never let them drive your fears." At first, I thought. This is to show majesty and fearlessness so that bad guys will not dare to provoke easily. But when Juan faced the bad guy-Scar as a prisoner, no matter whether the other party was suspicious, intimidated, or ridiculed, he met the other's gaze without any avoidance. It was this kind of confrontation that attracted him at first. His goodwill also planted the seeds for his reuse of scars.
Humans and animals are the same in this regard. When a snake is still, it will not attack. When it attacks, it is because it is more scared than you. That is to say, a person’s fear can trigger others’ fear, because when others see your fear, they don’t know what you will do, and he will be more fearful, and then take various measures to eliminate his inner fear. For example, inflicting harm with you, or even forcing you to a dead end. Only when you have no fear of him will he be completely relieved. In this way, facing fear is not to escape or cover up. Eliminating it is the way.

---------------------------------
.[Current Thoughts]: True love is not a complete acceptance without rejection. Change and conversion are normal, so that two different individuals can create a shared value. The value obtained under this changing relationship is the embodiment of love. Love itself is a relational body. Love is embodied in the way, in the way of transformation and change. 100% acceptance does not mean high-quality love. Change does not mean not loving. The way is the key.
