Trên các trang mạng xã hội, người ta thường thấy những đoạn video rất vô cảm từ Trung Quốc và Việt Nam như đoạn video một bé gái 2 tuổi ở Trung Quốc bị xe cán, bị thương nặng và nằm trên đường, nhưng bị nhiều người qua đường bỏ mặc dù họ có nhìn thấy.
Tại Việt Nam và Trung Quốc, nhiều tai nạn xe cộ xảy ra, tài xế của một số xe vận tải cố tình cán cho nạn nhân chết luôn, để chỉ phải đền một lần tiền thay vì phải nuôi thuốc men dài hạn.
Tại Mỹ, mới đây một người Mỹ gốc Việt, anh David Phùng đã bất chấp nguy hiểm nhảy xuống nước cứu một cụ bà và một con chó khi chiếc xe chìm trong cơn nước lũ, mà ngay cả bản thân của anh có thể bị nhận chìm theo chiếc xe. Tại sao lại có sự khác biệt như thế?

Ở xã hội tự do, con người là cứu cánh; con người được giáo dục sống làm sao để kính trọng và nâng cao tự do của người khác. Ngược lại cộng sản nói con người là vốn quý. Câu nói đó có nghĩa là cộng sản coi con người là phương tiện đầu tư sản xuất, không hơn không kém.
Chủ nghĩa cộng sản được du nhập vào Việt Nam và chủ trương của nó khi đi đến đâu là tàn phá hệ giá trị đương thời của xã hội đó, cùng lúc áp đặt hệ giá trị vật chất lên trên. Nó tiêu diệt giá trị tâm linh, chối bỏ giá trị cá nhân của con người và khuyến khích giai cấp này thù hận giai cấp kia như là quy luật của tiến hóa xã hội.
Nền giáo dục cộng sản đào tạo ra những con người như những con rô bô phục vụ cho sản xuất. Càng mất nhiều tính người thì càng tốt cho chế độ.
Tuy nhiên, hệ giá trị tính người của thế giới ở bất cứ đâu chưa bị hệ giá trị cộng sản tiêu diệt. Ở những nơi bị cộng sản thống trị vẫn còn những ốc đảo giá trị đương đại như những vốn liếng cuối cùng để quật khởi. Và bây giờ là lúc phải triển khai các ốc đảo đó để đánh đuổi hệ giá trị cộng sản.

Although she heard David Phung's voice during the rescue, Brouillette never saw her rescuer's face before their reunion Monday at a Denham Springs home where she is temporarily staying.
"I know I don't know you, but I love you," Brouillette, 53, said as she hugged and thanked the man she called her "angel" and "savior."
"It was nothing," Phung, 27, replied before Brouillete introduced him to Sassy, the poodle mix he also saved.
A Red Cross volunteer who befriended Brouillette at a shelter arranged Monday's meeting. Brouillette lost her trailer home and all of her belongings in the flooding. Phung brought her a load of supplies, including dog food.
"It's just who we are in Louisiana. We help people in times of need," he said. "I was put in that place to help her out."
The Aug. 13 rescue video shot by WAFB-TV has millions of YouTube views. It shows floodwaters swallowing Brouillette's red convertible as David Phung and two of his relatives arrive in a boat and urge her to get out of the car.
"I'm trying! I can't!" she replied. "Oh my God! I'm drowning!"
Phung tried to smash a car window from the boat, then jumped into the water and used his hands to rip open a hole on the top of the car. Phung grabbed Brouillette by her arms as the car disappeared in the murky waters. She remained submerged for several seconds before Phung finally pulled her out of the water.
"Get my dog!" she immediately shouted.
The poodle appeared to be underwater for at least 20 seconds before Phung took a deep breath, dipped below the surface and emerged with the dog cradled in his arms.
"I got your dog!" he yelled. "Swim to the boat."
Phung said he lost count of how many people that he helped save from the floodwaters, but none was more dramatic than Brouillette's.
"I didn't actually see the tape until two days later because I was working from sun up late into the night, just helping people," he said. "I was actually amazed at how calm and collected I was. I guess it was just the adrenaline took over."
Before getting caught in the floodwaters, Brouillette said she had been released from a hospital that morning after being treated for a kidney ailment. She was on her way to a pharmacy to get prescriptions filled when the car she said she borrowed from a friend was overcome by the water.
"It still seems like a dream," she said.
She believes "divine intervention" also played a part in her survival.
"He saved my life," she said. "I don't even know if I'm worth saving. I guess God said, 'Yeah.'"
Carolyn Perry, a Red Cross volunteer, said she watched the rescue video several times from her home in Kern County, California, before she was deployed to Louisiana.
"I was drawn to it," she said. "I just had this strange feeling I'm going to meet this woman."
Within three days of seeing the video, Perry recognized Brouillette at a Baton Rouge shelter that provided refuge to hundreds of flood victims. Perry said she hugged Brouillette and explained how the rescue had struck a chord with her.
"She was very, very humble, and we just struck up a friendship," Perry said. "For the next three days, we had a lot of heart-to-heart talks about life."
Before Perry returned home to California, Brouillette asked her new friend for help in connecting with the man who had saved her. Perry contacted an Associated Press reporter, who provided her with a telephone number for Phung. Perry called Phung and arranged for him to meet Brouilette and her dog.
At the end of their meeting, Brouillette gave Phung her phone number and embraced him one more time.
"And if I can ever do anything for you, let me know," she said.
