Lotus Eater:
Cow , sheep , goat have memories and intelligence too, although inferior to humanity.
If you don't protest eating meat, what right you have to talk about "justice" ?
These cows, goats, sheep , chicken you eat, they had families too. Yet your local butcher tied them up, put a knife in their throats, bled them dry and hanged their organs and meat. You go supermarket and buy them, make Youtube videos about how to cook meat.
But when an Emperor kills a troublesome servant, Fan Xian loses his sanity.
Joy of Life is a top level Cdrama , I love it, especially its political clashes.
I wish the author Mao Ni ( I guess) made Fan Xian into a practical young man.
Its totally OKAY for Fan Xian to have moral perspectives by his own style. But I wish he believed that without "power" he can't change sheet.
I hate the hypocirsy in FX, not FX himself.
He has never ever seen his mother, but he talks big about establishing a little bit of his mom's ideal world.
When I saw the title of the discussion I thought you had some serious insight about Fan Xian's character but when I saw this I couldn't stop laughing . 😂🤣🤣.
Fan Xian is a human , if you watched the drama ,he admit that several times both in season 1 & 2 . Humans are not perfect. Fan Xian is trying his best to live a happy life so the title of the drama is joy of life, if you want to see a perfect character go watch Indian tv series like Buddha , Ramayana or a Hollywood movie about Jesus
Lotus Eater:
Why would you shoot a hungry tiger if it wants to eat you? Do you deny Budha and believe you as a human, are superior , therefore, tiger's hunger is lesser than yours ?
If all life is equal, we shouldn't stop carnivore animals when they try to eat us.
Since you even mentioned Buddha, here's another saying of Buddha - "sabbe kuthakjana unmattaka" , it translates to - all beings(except who attained nirvana) are hypocrites
