《兒子說想跟我聊聊北韓》
連著好幾晚,躺在我右側的女兒吵著我唸《My Weird School》這套故事書給她聽;兒子則吵著要跟我聊「北韓」話題。
我實在分身乏術,心想如果他跟我談的是德國納粹種族主義(Nazis )(Holocaust),我還可以推薦他先閱讀幾本青少年讀物如《The Diary of Anne Frank》《The Boy in the Striped Pajamas》《Number the Stars 》暫且打發。
怎奈關於「北韓」,我唯獨想到的作品竟只有那部瘋迷主婦圈的韓劇《愛的迫降》。家庭主婦不知北韓人間疾苦,滿腦子想到的只有玄彬與孫藝珍在於北韓那段令人揪心的浪漫戀情👩❤️👨。
等女兒入睡後,我走進兒子的房間,他正拿著Kindle閱讀,
『來吧!我們來聊聊北韓!』我鑽進他被窩。
他先跟我分享了幾部關於北韓的Youtube短片,直呼這國家的存在太不可思議,令他困惑。
其實我更困惑,這議題是如此龐大高深。要先了解人類社會的演進,要牽扯到封建走向資本主義的革命歷程,再進階到社會主義,共產主義。再談點馬克思主義及柏拉圖哲學裡的理想國及烏托邦。
其實我知道的也都只是雞皮蒜毛,隨便胡湊瞎掰,想證明媽媽也是有讀過萬卷書。
兒子聽得一頭霧水一臉茫然,他很難理解我話中的意思,因為我百分之八十都是用中文亂掰。
但要用英文去談馬克思主義,天哪!我甚連這單字都不知道怎麼拼?
只不過是想跟兒子聊個天,竟得先孤身深夜裡寒窗苦讀,除了重頭搞清楚人類社會歷史的來龍去脈外,還得查詢所有重要英文單字。
這母職怎麼會高深莫測到我無法招架😔。
為了加強兒子的深刻思考,我只先在紙上列出的幾個重點單字及問題,再請兒子自己Google找出答案,並與我討論。
🤓這一年來,我跟兒子之間若有難以溝通的問題,不論情感上、想法上、知識上,我都會列出問句,請他紙上答覆。他很喜歡用這樣的方式與我交換想法。
🥺好想念那段親子時光,只需手裡捧著隨便一本繪本,開嗓亂唸,便能把他們逗得笑呵呵,哄得傻楞楞啊!
若您的孩子恰巧對於這主題有興趣的,也可以參考。

Battle between Freedom and Equality | Lee Yee
A netizen left a comment under my article from a couple of days ago, and said that if Trump is re-elected, he would turn “dictatorial”, and pursue “Trump thinking as mainstream”. He said that he “divides the United States and gave birth to racism, white nationalism, and xenophobia”, which is disastrous to human civilization, etc.
Under the constitutional system of the United States, one will have to step down after one re-election, and there is no way to bring about a dictatorship. Moreover, just look at all the stormy attacks mainstream media throws towards him, how is one to become a dictator? In a multicultural America, how could any almighty notion exist? As for racism and xenophobia, the cited example is him crowning the novel coronavirus “Chinese virus”, and the media claimed that this has caused a sharp increase in anti-Chinese speech online. But the virus did originate in China, did it not?
Other than the infiltration of Chinese interests that drove the U.S. media’s anti-Trump campaign, it has also been the “leftard” ideologies that have dominated academia and the press. How does one define “leftard”? Something that So Keng-chit said a few days ago was very appropriate, "the definition of “leftard” is that they replace strong and weak with “wrong and “right”; strong must be “wrong”, and weak must be “right”. Leftards uplift the weak by putting down the bullies to attain moral high grounds. The leftards must oppose the United States, for the see the United States as strong. The leftards sympathize with Saddam Hussein, because compared with the United States, Saddam Hussein is weak. They cannot see that Saddam Hussein is strong compared with the Iraqis. Hence the ‘tard’ in leftard.”
It is not that they cannot see, they are just intentionally not seeing. The mainstream media reports about Iraq after Saddam Hussein had fallen were that there was no longer a stronghold of a government, which led to the loss of societal management. Bombs were exploding daily, and blood flooded the land of the country. People lost homes and livelihoods. However, data showed that in the later phase of Saddam Hussein’s regime, Iraq’s population was 26 million, and the per capita GDP was only US$625, not to mention that the inflation rate was high in the three digits. After the United States attacked Iraq and introduced the democratic system, the Iraqi population has risen to 35 million, the per capita GDP has increased to US$4,600, and the inflation rate has dropped to 6%. Despite the global economic slowdown, the Iraqi economy has grown by an average of 9.9% per year for more than a decade.
In addition, the mainstream media rarely reported the substantial progress in Afghanistan’s economy and people’s livelihood after the United States eradicated the Taliban regime before establishing a democratic system in Afghanistan. It is rarely reported that after South Africa got rid of the white regime, social security was horrifying. It is because such truthful reporting is not politically correct.
Shouldn’t the motto of news publishing be “all news worth reporting”? When political correctness overrides this creed, there is no longer press freedom.
The so-called political correctness stems from anti-discrimination. Anti-discrimination means upholding the concept that “all men are born equal”, and to protect vulnerable groups. Anti-discrimination used to be a kind of progress, since the starting point is not the interests of the majority of society, but the moral and spiritual demands. But when this kind of protection gradually develops into a disregard towards differences and the diversity of human life, it becomes leftards who wave around the banner of political correctness. If the welfare of new immigrants is treated the same as that of local residents, how is that different from obliterating the long-term tax payment of local residents? Using Black Lives Matter to rationalize violence and chaos, you get Black Lives Better, and ignore the fundamental problems of the root causes of issues such as the Black community’s slighting of education; with the police worrying that law enforcement will cause them trouble, the crime in the Black areas will increase. Anti-discrimination has developed into a state where even praising women for being beautiful is discrimination. Obama once praised the Democratic vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris as the most beautiful State Attorney General in the United States, and was then accused of discrimination by feminists. He was forced to apologize. To protect LGBT, many American college toilets no longer distinguish between men and women, making women fearful.
“All men are born equal” is a false proposition. Some people are born with a silver spoon in their mouths, and others are born in the slums of Africa. How are they born equal? American conservative Russel Kirk said that we must pay attention to diversity and differences. Only before God and a fair court can there be true quality; all other attempts to achieve equality will inevitably lead to societal stagnation. If the balance of natural differences and conventions is tipped in order to pursue equality for all, then it will not be long before tyrants or despicable oligarchs start to create new inequalities.
Socialism waves around the banner of equality, and has been breeding tyranny for a whole century. Modern leftards is another form of pursuit of equality, one that is destroying the freedom of human society. Freedom is more important than equality. If there is no freedom, there will be no equality among people who are not free.
This U.S. general election may as well be regarded as a battle between freedom and equality.
