Of course, mirrors are not created for philosophical thinking, but throughout the Eastern and Western civilizations, philosophers are all fascinated by the characteristics of mirrors, and are deeply inspired. Standing in front of the mirror, it is inevitable to reflect many black holes that cannot be observed on weekdays, making people alert and addicted to the human weakness, and play together in the form of reason and emotion. Whether light illuminates darkness, or darkness illuminates darkness, is a proposition that physicists and philosophers need to think about. As far as you and me, everything you see in the black mirror is actually just a corner of our heart. This is probably what the words "Black Mirror" are about.
Taking "White Bear" in the second episode of the second season as an example, the absurd and cruel reality show is to inflict more cruel will on the criminals of the most vicious people. The insensitive criminal is like a still life in front of a mirror, reflecting the same human stains in the minds of the people who take pleasure in torturing her: bloodthirsty and numbness. The two sides, which are mirror images of each other, in their respective power masters, take the attitude of tyrants, let loose the haze of people's hearts, and bully the weak, just to obtain material or spiritual stimulation and satisfaction. If one dissects human moral rules and secular laws, it is inevitable to fall into a tyranny of power. On the one hand, it is the rectification and legalization of the behavior of the majority, and on the other hand, it is based on this rectification and legalization. On the other hand, there is an unquestionable fragile self-esteem. The reality show in the story is difficult to confirm in the real world, but similar situations abound.
If ordinary people do something that contradicts the education they have always accepted, they can't help but feel uneasy and panic all day long. But once this kind of behavior is rampant and everywhere, people's hearts will rely on them and become confident. The anxiety of the former does not go to the bottom of the question: why is edification like this? The latter is justifiable, and rarely reflects on the nature of people who are so terrifying. Even if it is such a question, you can't help but defend yourself: we are just ordinary people, how can we have so much energy and aptitude to do such grand philosophical thinking, you can let us go. Ordinary people are like this, the elite or the wicked are even more terrifying. Pretending or being savage is just a means. In the final analysis, they only listen to their inner voice. What I do is right, if the sages are not. In this way, the sages must have just let go of the fart, but people regarded it as a model. Naturally, there are other groups of people who have said the golden rule to prove my behavior; if everyone does this, they are afraid that it is not enough, and they have to do it to the extreme. , in order to obtain a transcendent satisfaction in intelligence and strength.
To say that the world is a rabble is to be aloof, but bullying the few is indeed a violent impulse under the simplest aggregation of power. Even the so-called leader is just another mirror, it just happens to cater to and amplify the inner needs of the public, but it is not necessarily beyond the middle. Another example is a person who “spreads nonsense words”, and can’t help but end up with the evaluation of “grandfather”, and even worse, it should be “heretic”. Confined to a single event, people may be unable or unwilling to argue such an argument, but there has never been less of a rut that the wheel of history has run over to pick up a certain "heresy" and regard it as a classic. This is just another mirror that latecomers get from the "hereticism" of their predecessors.
Some friends often ask me, what inspiration did you get from a certain movie or a certain book? I'm often speechless, and if I really want to do some digging, I naturally have a set of words. Of course, I know that it's often just a little feeling that is not worth mentioning. From "White Bear" or "Black Mirror" and even many films that resort to questioning, it is not difficult for people to get a little reflection and introspection from stories with clear priorities and clear clues. But the creator has never been a director. It produces countless bubble dramas, but it disdains to edit everything for you. In the tedious life, whether you see it or not, feel it or not, it will not hinder your physical growth and reproduction. , demise. What's good with MSG is a dish, what's good without MSG - that's just a nutrient carrier that feeds you well. The so-called deliciousness is just a combination of proteins, sugars, and fats that human beings desperately need. It's just another mirror, reflecting your needs.
So the mirror is really a disgusting thing, or maybe we just disgust our hearts.
