#TheJakartaMethod 这本书快要读完了，一定程度上我理解了冷战并非没有战火硝烟的战争，冷战可能只是没有显著的国与国的战争冲突，但在两大势力夹缝中的第三世界国家的国内，仍然发生了大量的暴力事件，屠杀、种族灭绝和性奴役，惨烈程度丝毫不亚于热战。

另一个感想仍然是，暴力不解决问题，只会引入更多的问题。

第三点，我一定程度上理解了ccp在同时代所犯下的那些让我感到恶心愤怒和难过的暴力运动，和这本书所讲述的发生在东南亚、中南美洲和非洲的事情是有千丝万缕的联系的，虽然不一定有实际的文本的证据，但逻辑上能解释得通决策者的心态，但是我并不因此而原谅和同情支持这些做法，于是最终又落回第二点的感慨。

第四点，对种族主义、殖民主义的理解更立体，因而进一步对美国祛魅，并更多维度地理解这个国家的思想内核，及其政治制度的运作逻辑。

始终困惑我的一个问题仍没有解答： 当面临与你观点相左的群体/阵营与你所在的群体/阵营暴力相向并大开杀戒时，你的选择是什么。而这一切悲剧，又该如何避免？还是不可避免？

This one is also quite long (1h26m), but well worth it (imo).

If you wondered why I'm so critical/negative about the #US, it's because of things like what is discussed in this episode.
It's quite a consistent and gruesome pattern.
