World War I was like the French Revolution. Always full of regrets, the twilight of civilization. The Great Revolution cannot produce a war of the old system, but it can only destroy civilization. The old aristocracy was, of course, as rigid as a zombie. But zombies don't hurt people. The decline of the West is the tragedy of the entire Eurasian island. Curly Fu's performance is already superb. All the actors in it have a sense of lines in a stage play and a sense of picture in a movie. The elegy of the British Empire is on full display in their lines. If you watch the excitement, it's better to watch the Second World War. That general war involved indiscriminately everyone involved. If you look at the doorway, it is still the First World War, and it is easier to understand. A field of experimentation for various doctrines. Often see often new often see often thrilling. When a big guy who claims to be free but doesn't know anything about our world enters the world system. Could it really be more orderly than the Holy Alliance of 1815? The fall of the Russian and German empires. Maybe it's the price of this old world. The new world doesn't see anything better. All the materialistic consumerism of the new world is at best the Great Gatsby and the Wolf of Wall Street.
100 years have passed. All the problems of the 19th century seem unresolved. All the time of the 20th century seems to be wasted. What about the 21st century, relying on this AI technology? There has never been a precedent in history where a technology could determine a more civilized world.
