Currency is only the appearance, behind it is a heart

Americans are stupid and naive.
So serious and so cute at the same time, I play inferences based on an inexplicable logic, and in the end I can't forget the whole world-either to enslave the world, or to liberate the world, anyway, I always have the world in mind!
They caught the culprit-the monetary system, and exposed modern slavery. Is currency causing the world’s dilemma? Money is an extension of human heart and desire, but it shifts from the possession of real matter to the possession of digital symbols of nothingness. But behind that is greedy possessiveness after all.
It is not the capitalists, but everyone who drives all of this, trying to enjoy security, honor and satisfaction in a short life. Money has replaced Jesus, supermarkets have replaced churches... One belief replaces another, and people fall into Anxiety, endless anxiety, human beings want to work, be busy, be exploited, and be enslaved, because freedom is too light, and life can’t bear it. The only way to ease is to surrender to the paradigm. The so-called spirit of the times is really an incomprehensible answer.
Can technology solve the problem? In fact, technology happens to be an example of human greed. To be faster, higher and stronger-technology is also an extension of people. Technology is as neutral as currency, but why is it also stinking? Also because of the human heart behind it.
Don't forget that a large part of modern technology is driven by war. War is eternal, while civilian technology actually only happens to be a by-product and derivative of war. The Venus plan is so fun. In this era, there are still such plans. This is the utopia of utopia. Respectable idiot.
The film quoted Krishnamurti’s speeches as footnotes, but did not understand what Muti meant. Muti said: The way to reduce pain is to observe it and integrate with pain.
We, each of us, the Chinese and Americans, are not outside the spirit of the age, but the spirit of the age itself. We are the pain itself.

Self-salvation is a possible way, although it only makes sense in principle.

    This kind of film, which is filled with so-called inside information under the guise of a documentary, is actually gossip is the most misleading. The only value is probably to show American self-criticism and freedom of speech.

    A bit of brainwashing. しかし has unique insights in some places. Those who have never experienced communism always believe that there will be communism in the near future. Why are cults so rampant now?
