The entanglement of western morals

Morality in Western culture comes from rational thinking. It is a rigorous logical reasoning (Kant's practical rationality). It is rigid in form, but it can be pushed to the extreme and improve people's cognition. However, people here are often put into the entanglement of either or the other, unable to extricate themselves, and eventually collapse, and only in this way can they get rid of the pain of being entangled in it. Because when there is a problem with logical reasoning, since there is no problem with the logical process, you can only overthrow the premise of logic, which is your own reason. So suicide, but suicide is confused (because I can't think about it). However, people in Western culture have choices and free will. The pain comes from choice and also from their own morally lofty pursuits. Therefore, the sacrifices made in this situation make people feel distinct and lovely. .
Morality in Eastern culture originates from people's natural emotions, amplifies them, promotes them externally in the form of ethics, and consolidates them in the form of rituals, and all within the four seas are brothers (Liang Shuming). In traditional Chinese morality, first of all, if the conflict is about profit and righteousness, or even life and righteousness, this does not need to be considered. Righteousness must come first, so you will commit suicide, but suicide is calm (because you think clearly Up). The people here seem to have no choice. As a part of the ritual and music system, they seem to have lost their meaning. Although the victims are admirable, they often appear pedantic. Secondly, when there is a conflict between sentiment and meaning, it is not to do logical reasoning, but to weigh the sentiment and meaning in the balance of the heart, and to balance it by taking on different responsibilities and obligations, instead of making either-or choice. . For example, Guan Yu still followed Liu Bei's deeper love after repaying Cao Cao's love. At the same time, the Chinese would not put people in such an extreme situation to make people make extreme choices, because that was an impersonal approach, so Cao Cao let Guan Yu go.
Planet Tairuo is a typical Western story (so compared to China). Due to excessive expansion and inconsistent struggles, self-destruction has led to self-destruction, and then ventured to open up new territories and annihilate aliens for their own survival. ...
The ending of the story is abrupt, because it is just a dream paradise under Western thinking and logic. Therefore, it is not the earth and human beings that should be destroyed, but the western civilization that is going to an end. What I should look for is not new residence and resources, but inner restraint of desire and tolerance of others. Westerners (especially Americans) are afraid it is hard to think of it.
