Current affairs perspective
Recently, the Voice of Germany interviewed Shao Lan, a spokesman for the international affairs delegation of the Hong Kong college school.During the interview, Shao Lan always refused to reflect or condemn the student's violence. Instead, Gu Zuo, who insisted that the Hong Kong government must release all the arrested students and must meet all their five demands.Behind this, in fact, all Hong Kong citizens and the entire Hong Kong society are abducted with them to avoid the legal responsibilities faced by these sports leaders.
She reminded me of Chai Ling interviewed by foreign media after the Tiananmen incident.When the reporter asked Chai Ling if he knew that the troops would open the field in Tiananmen Square the next day, she answered.The reporter asked her why she didn't tell the students in the square at the time so that they would evacuate?She said that the exercise would always be sacrificed.The reporter continued to ask her, so why did you evacuate instead of staying in the square?She said that the exercise was indispensable, and she would continue to lead the movement.When I first saw Chai Ling's interview that year, I really saw me creepy.
As the leader of the democratic movement, it is obviously a self -sacrifice spirit, including facing the loss of freedom or even the danger of life; instead of abducting others as a shield when this danger comes.If the democratic movement wants to succeed, it can only be continuously progressive after waves, and it is impossible to achieve all the goals overnight.After a exercise, the government had to compromise on some issues and improve time and space to improve the government.
At the same time, the sports leaders do a good job in the preparation of legal liability for illegal and criminal issues that overfire and beyond the legal boundaries in the movement. In prison, they will continue to call everyone as a spiritual leader to make a good way for the next exercise.EssenceOf course, these over -fire illegal and criminal behaviors should not be encouraged or letting participants use violence on others.
Like the poisonous trees in evidence, violence is also a poisonous tree. It may only be poisonous and evil, and it is impossible to bloom democratic freedom flowers.Anyone, if you try to abduct the entire society with their demands through violence, or even deliberately sacrifice their lives at the cost of protecting themselves, no matter how noble their demands look likeIt will make them become their opposition.
In the past, when I was studying world history, I always felt that Gandhi was very charming. The non -violent and non -cooperative movement of his leadership was not romantic at all. Unlike other world revolutionary leaders, it was legendary.Now I want to come, how much the thoughts of compassion and compassion are avoided, and how many unnecessary bleeding and sacrifices have been avoided.The movement of the lyric dictatorship with violence is eventually moving towards its opposite side. After successful, it was just a new dictatorship, and a new violent government has replaced the reincarnation.In modern autocratic society, if you want to truly promote social change and achieve democracy and freedom, maybe Gandhi has taken the road to the only way.
Back to this democratic movement in Hong Kong, when the Hong Kong government announced the withdrawal decision, it originally meant that the movement had achieved a staged victory, which was the best time to end it.However, the sports leader has to meet the all five demands of all of them at one time (and no matter some demands are not within the scope of the Hong Kong government's authority), and began to abduct the entire society with large -scale violence.Throwing the bottle of bottle burning the bus subway, taking some more intense violence, forcing the Hong Kong government to release all the students who were arrested.
This is definitely not their politically naive. They do not know the necessary compromises, but really lack the spirit of sacrifice the spirit of the fearless sacrifice of Gandi and Mandela who do not enter hell.Now what these student leaders think are only MDASH; mdash; I would rather drag others and drag the entire society into hell, and to preserve myself.Can such people lead social progress?
The democratic movement in Hong Kong has begun to taste slowly since they blocked at the airport and pushed the plane, and moved to the opposite of the original intention of the movement, and gradually lost their legitimacy, so that this is not even such a kind ofThe situation.In the current situation, what a truly responsible sports leader should do:
1. Call for everyone to stop using violence immediately;
2. The huge turbulence caused to the society after the movement of this exercise was unprepared, and apologized to all Hong Kong citizens;
Third, accept the trial of the Hong Kong court, incorporate the incident into the track of the rule of law;
4. Continue to speak in prison and promote their political claims.
Only this, there is a front -line opportunity to save this democratic movement.Will this happen?Judging from the current pattern and ideological realm of these sports leaders, most of them will be as mdash; mdash; The Answer is blowin in the windhellip; hellip; (the answer is in the wind)
