保守派和自由派都對《三體》的開場場景議論紛紛,而持不同政治觀點的觀眾則會得出完全不同的解讀。
Conservatives and liberals alike can’t stop talking about the opening scene in ‘3 Body Problem’, and viewers from opposing ends of the political spectrum would come away with totally different interpretations.
Notes:
(1) “3 Body Problem,” from “Game of Thrones” creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss along with Alexander Woo, starts out with a harrowing scene set in Mao Zedong's China in 1966. A physics professor, accused of teaching counter-revolutionary concepts, is brought onstage before a raging mob and beaten to death.
(2) Conservative viewer: “The scene is scarily reminiscent of where Woke is taking us: no freedom of speech or thought, toe the party line or be eliminated, don't even think of counter-revolution.”
(3) Liberal viewer: “The scene demonstrates what is taking place. Banning books in schools & libraries that don't conform to their way of thinking. Then cry ‘Freedom.’ The anti-science set in America is a lot like that.”
(4) The series' first season, whose eight episodes hit Netflix on March 21, debuted at No. 2 on the streamer's top 10 shows and has since climbed to the top spot.
