At the time, I passed by the scene on my way to the train station and was extremely angry at the large number of people who were gathered around watching for entertainment. They were laughing and joking while enjoying the spectacle, taking pleasure in other people's misfortunes (some even set up high-powered telescopes to watch!). The Chinese really are all like this - these things require money, but there is also spiritual coldness and numbness. Mr. Lu Xun wrote about the psychological state of the Chinese people many years ago, and it is still true today - this is truly the greatest tragedy! Don't say that we can't alleviate their suffering, if we can't help, at least we don't have to be spectators, and even if we do watch, we don't have to be as celebratory as if it's a festival, right?!

When I was very young, I saw a news story that I still remember vividly after all these years. A man, due to an argument with his wife, impulsively climbed to the roof of a six-story building to "enjoy the view". Later, his wife called the police, who intervened and tried to persuade him to come down. Meanwhile, a large crowd of "spectators" gradually gathered downstairs. Time and again, he was coaxed out by his friends. After a four-hour standoff, the man even asked the police for a boxed meal, showing that he had no intention of dying. However, the group of spectators below started to egg him on, laughing and shouting "Jump! Jump already!" In addition, the almost frenzied close-range filming by the media made him feel utterly humiliated, which provoked his emotions, causing him to repeatedly throw stones at the crowd. The spectators dodged the stones, continuing to munch on sunflower seeds, point fingers, jeer, and laugh, refusing to leave. Finally, the man bowed to the camera before jumping down. The crowd of spectators let out an anticipatory "Huh". That scene has stayed with me for years, unforgettable.
I've heard before that a little Japanese guy could relocate hundreds of people, finding it inconvenient to relieve himself, so he handed over his gun to the common folk for safekeeping, then continued on his way after relieving himself.
I believe it now............
One last sentence: Even the pigs in the slaughterhouse love to watch the commotion!
