Live in the moment, if you want to wake up, you must dare to face the bleak life, dare to face the dripping blood

What kind of world do we live in?

This film is about the relationship between humans and animals, but the facts reflected behind the relationship between humans and animals are actually the metaphysical thoughts behind the current operating system of the entire world—that is, humans and nature are separated, "separation of heaven and man" "of. And the way we live, the way we study nature and society (whether in science or economics), the way we think about problems, and the order in which society works are all like this.

Under the dominance of this metaphysical thought, the world today faces serious problems. If you want to wake up, you have to realize that all these problems are connected - whether it is the gap between rich and poor, inequality or environmental pollution, climate change. And your daily life, study, and work are all related to this world. Do you really want to understand this real world? Do you really dare to face the truth of this world? Really, if you want to wake up, you must dare to face the bleak life and the dripping blood. Only those who have courage, those who are fearless, dare to face the truth of the world.

In a world where the rich 1% now controls more than 99% of the world's wealth, we have entered a fork in human history. Can 99% of people wake up, see the truth of this system, and exert their power to change the operating system of the world?

Everyone can change the future direction of the world through their own way of life. The premise is, take some time and take some courage to understand the real world.

Earthlings quotes

  • [first lines]

    title card: earth-ling n. - One who inhabits the earth.

    Narrator: Since we all inhabit the earth, we are all considered earthlings. There is no sexism, racism, or speciesism in the term 'earthling'. It encompasses each and every one of us: warm- or cold-blooded, mammal, vertebrate or invertebrate, bird, reptile, amphibian, fish and human alike.

  • Narrator: It is the human earthling who tends to dominate the earth, oftentimes treating other fellow earthlings and living beings as mere objects. This is what is meant by 'speciesism'. By analogy with racism and sexism, speciesism is a prejudice or attitude or bias in favor of the interests of the members of one's own species and against those of members of other species.
