美國因為在2016一位“人品”大有問題的人當選總統,引出通俄鬧劇,讓我一直在思考一個問題,西方文明幾百年前開始的啟蒙,理性,發展演變到現在,還是不能改變人性中的醜陋。這種醜陋在民主自由的美國,通過通俄鬧劇揭示出來,也就是loser會把自己當做winner,然後不惜一切代價,不擇手段詆毀winner。這讓人感到悲哀,還好美國還有法治,儘管法治的堅持和保障並不容易,但是如果沒有法治,通俄鬧劇會是什麼結果呢?想想真後怕。
太多的事實證明,通俄鬧劇是希拉里輸不起的後遺症,這裡面還不僅僅是希拉里個人輸不起,她和奧巴馬代表的4th wave progressivism的美妙口號,也遮不住他們這些人內心的醜陋。在很多博文和留言裡,我一直想提醒人的virtual signalling,裱是不可信的,尤其是政治人物和意識形態主導的人物。越是口號喊得亮麗,人們越是要當心,人們要認知這些口號不是reality,是某些腦子裡的東西,要觀察的是這些人的行為。
以前我引用過尼采的這段話:“An idealist is incorrigible: if he is thrown out of his heaven he makes an ideal of his hell. Let him be disillusioned and behold!—he will embrace this disillusionment just as fervently as a little while before he embraced his hopes. Insofar as his tendency is among the great incurable tendencies of human nature he is able to give rise to tragic destinies and afterwards become the subject of tragedies: for tragedies have to do with precisely what is incurable, ineluctable, inescapable in the fate and character of man.”
這句話的深意是incorrigible,incurable,ineluctable,inescapable tragedies。結合最近萬維網上的爭吵,我發現losers把自己當成winners對一些自以為自己有某種“理想”,自認自己是崇高的人是incorrigible不可救藥的,他們需要這樣的disillusionment as much as hopes。 因為這是人的character問題,所以是不可救藥的。 |
