This film is purely a political fable. With the rigor and rigidity unique to the German nation, the reflection on Nazism, history, and politics can be raised to a philosophical level.
The old saying goes, "In the beginning, people are inherently good," but after growing up, they may evolve into various evils. The same is true of politics. It often begins with a legitimate and beautiful appeal, which is a good beginning, but once it develops to the point where it abandons all ethics in order to achieve its goals and means, this politics begins to show its cannibalistic fangs. Bloody nature. In the film, Hitler returned to modern society, and at the beginning he was also visiting the cold and suffering, paying attention to people's livelihood issues such as employment, pension, education, etc., and found resonance with the people to obtain support. It is true that the Nazis in history were able to come to power because of their ideology and beliefs that were in line with the people's yearning for a better life. They were also very effective in various economic constructions in the early days of their administration, and they rose to become a great power that can challenge the world order. But in the end it evolved into a huge disaster. The root of this is that this apparently correct politics achieves itself at the expense of others, sacrifices tomorrow to satisfy today, and abandons the common social values of humanity, freedom and fairness; politics Once it loses its humanity, it becomes a cult, and no amount of noble slogans can cover up its anti-human nature.
On the other hand, politics should also be the politics of the masses, not the private weapon of one party or one person. The Nazis themselves started out by relying on mass movements. Even Hitler, who came back from the journey, found that power was falling by the wayside, and he continued to give speeches and debates to win the hearts and minds of the people and win supporters; the irony of history is that after taking power, the Nazis quickly became masters of suppressing mass movements, and they succeeded in suppressing mass movements. It has created a society with only "one doctrine, one leader", and finally can successfully tie the whole people to the Nazi chariot and drive to destruction together. In this film, after Hitler began to have some followers, he gradually expressed his remarks and ideas to keep his opponents closed. Once the public is not allowed to participate in politics and there is no dissent and debate, it will surely become a dictatorship or dictatorship, a fig leaf for power and selfish desires.
"Hitler is back" is a warning. Hitler in the film also said it very clearly: "If you think I'm a monster and you want to condemn me, then you should also condemn those who elected this monster... They decided to elect extraordinary people, who entrusted the hope of the country to the country. to an extraordinary person". Those who have experienced the historical trial and error of Nazi claims can still find people who hold the same values in the 21st century, which cannot but arouse vigilance and reflection. In the historical process promoted by big figures, the general public often plays the role of fueling the flames, and they are also the biggest bearers of all the good and bad consequences of the rise and fall. Compared with the absurdity of the plot crossing, history will not reincarnate, but history may go backwards. Faced with scenes that are both familiar and doubtful, we need to pick up political ethics, think deeply and make choices carefully...
