From formalism to extremism

I believe most of you have heard of American black humor or read this novel. This American drama relatively restores the main content of the novel, satirizes the American bureaucracy, and shows us a more real American army, full of American satire.

Throughout the play, we can see some common and familiar characters and scenes, the shrewd trooper, the self-serving officer, the narrow-minded general, the idealist, the unclear teammate, the team who went wrong and died on the same day The new recruits, the endless flight missions that have been changed again and again, the American soldiers who are promiscuous wherever they go, and the trip to liberate Europe is actually a hell trip for the Americans. But in the end, humanity is completely lost. Soldiers become uncomplaining killing machines, obedient, absolutely obedient. Leaders demonstrate absolute totalitarianism and a desire to control. After the whole drama is adapted, it is actually mocking the self-democratic and false prosperity of American people.

Democracy in the United States is still not democracy for everyone, and the American dream is only the dream of the capitalists, not the dream of the poor and the bottom. And this Catch 22 is a mockery of the foundation of the American regime. The soldiers flew back this time, and the next time they flew, they might not be able to come back again. There were only thick smoke and mutilated corpses on the battlefield. After 25 flights, the mission has not been completed, but it has been superimposed one after another. The war is cruel, but this kind of behavior that keeps breaking its promises only makes the formalism go directly to the American extreme, and what you get is the loss of people's hearts. Therefore, after the end of World War II, the American soldiers came to the Korean battlefield arrogantly. What awaited them was not a French woman, not a French feast, but hell. When the victors and the righteous of World War II become the invaders, the balance of war will slowly tilt. Therefore, the United States failed in the Korean War, the United States failed in the Vietnam War, and all the advanced weapons and artillery suppression could not resist the support of American politicians and capitalists, so the anti-war sentiment in the United States at that time was high, facing the vast ocean of people's war, Endless rainforests, mines or bullets await them.

Therefore, the former Vietnam was also a righteous party, until they invaded the Khmer Rouge, attempted to dominate Southeast Asia, and accepted the benefits of the Soviet Union to contain China. At the same time, his identity was changed, and the identity change just showed the world which side was righteous and which side was right. One side is evil, so China's self-defense counterattack against Vietnam just proves this theory. When the Chinese soldiers captured the forts and warehouses, the food and rice that the Chinese aided in Vietnam were inside. Yes, the Vietnamese used our aid against us, once we were friends, now we are enemies. I don’t know how difficult it was to fight a war when the new China, which had just gone through the Reformation, was in short supply, but we persevered and finally won morally and victoriously. Victory doesn't come easily.

War will only pull people into endless quagmire and abyss. No matter what military regulations are, they actually serve certain people. No matter how beautiful and perfect this regulation looks, it is actually the people who are fighting the war. , once you put yourself on the side of injustice, it is difficult to win back the initiative.
