The common psychology of modern people is to give up exceptional happiness, enjoy less misery, and live as long as possible as individualistically. In other words, modern people seek special happiness and know that it will not last for a long time even if it is realized. Therefore, less unhappiness should resonate more than the idea of happiness. In that sense, there is not much difference between capitalism and communism.

There are two types of human beings in the world. One is Putin-type dictatorship individual self-righteous lovers, and one is Zelensky-like civil democracy and social justice lovers. Of course I am the former. Putin was just wrong. So, the former is the one who is likely to be my best friend. I can really say. There are only these two types in the world.

There are some types of human beings who cannot live according to common sense throughout their lives, which happens to be ordinary citizens, and even if they deviate from common sense, they are forgiven if they are not even criminals, while Putin is globally socially. The only difference lies in being an insane person who has committed a great sin. We do not commit mortal sin even if it is abnormal. And the difference is still big.

I saw Notting Hill today, and the film at the time was mediocre in subject matter, with a bit of pathos in its normality. Therefore, the facial expressions and lines of the actors and the theme song of Elvis Costello come into play. It was Luc Besson who turned it into an exciting theme and darkened the movie. Fincher and Kitano are similar.

Lynch had already gone dark before Besson and Fincher, but he was exhausted and the film director retired early. Music culture and movies and fashion have been synchronized, but in modern times they are more micro-subdivided, and in fact they are deprived of their integrity, and many feel that it is okay. The Otaku option era will continue for a long time.
