If you are a Luther, and you still care about fairness and justice, then the common people will probably think you are a fool, and they will think: 1. If you are so idle, it is better to care about how to change your situation first, and you are still so confused. What fairness and justice are really stupid; 2. Just because you are worthless and incompetent, so you will care about fairness and justice, because you have nothing else to do, you can only give yourself some false sense of loftiness in this way and presence.
In this case, you will be stressed and you will gradually wonder if they are right. Moreover, your behavior of caring about fairness and justice will become a negative teaching material in their minds - you see, only people who are unbalanced in their minds, or who are naive and unable to cope with this real society maturely, care about fairness and justice. Normal people, oops, are ashamed to mention this.
And only if you have achieved "success" in the secular sense, or at least, you are not worse than others, or even better, then, if you care about fairness and justice, the mediocrity will feel that this is a kind of transcendence The pursuit of higher values ​​at the level of daily life. The mediocrity is always snobbish, so much so that you have to outperform them on the mundane measure of success (the more the merrier), so that they don't view your distinctive mind with contempt.
Why are you always talking about mediocrity? I do it myself, what does Guan Yongzhong have to do? Because the common people must be awakened in order to achieve fairness and justice.
For yourself, the key question is, do you deviate from fairness and justice in the process of pursuing success in the worldly sense, and do you still care about fairness and justice after you are obviously no worse than others?
You wanted to change the world, but in the end, the world changed you.
Even if you can resist temptation and see through fame and fortune, but can you really do it, no matter how fucked up the reality is, no matter how many times it disappoints you, are you still full of faith in the future?
If you are desperate, it means that you have been changed by the world after all.
