In the morning, I wandered around Prince Gong's mansion and read books.
Then I went home. My uncle and aunt came over today and said hello. I said to them, "I applied for a WeChat account for my grandmother, and I have added you. Did you see it?" My uncle said directly, "You are sick. "I asked why, and the answer was: "No." Where's my aunt? Then he said: "I don't use WeChat very much."
Later, my uncle said a reason: "The 80-year-old lady uses WeChat, you are sick."
I laughed.
Uncle is a very mature person, he is pondering everything. From childhood to adulthood, any problems at home must be discussed with his uncle, and he is very authoritative at home. Hands-on ability is also very strong. I remember when I was a child, because my grandma and my uncle lived in the same yard. In winter, my uncle used a chair and a triangle to make an ice car, and then my sister and my uncle skated on the moat together. (This is also the scene on the ice in "If • Love", so familiar to me.)
As the incident went on, my uncle gradually got older, and because of his long-term career in the driver industry, his waist was seriously ill. Lumbar disc herniation has been treated twice.
My grandmother and I moved to the current place. What about the uncle's family? Also moved to Beiqijia.
The contacts gradually dwindled, but we could still meet every Saturday.
As they grow up, each of them changes in their own living environment. Therefore, there is a big difference between the two generations. There are many different views on various things and problems, and some aspects are even at odds with each other, such as the aforementioned thing.
Of course this is not the only case.
The contradiction between the two people is that they have different thinking habits.
His thinking inertia is social empirical, that is, he believes that experience is important. Because these experiences ensure that he does not make big mistakes in the course of life. And this kind of experience is generally obtained through the information interaction of the people around him (colleagues, peers, relatives and friends), including his own life experience of course. The limitation of this experience is that it is mimetic, that is, subordination to the mainstream of society. In addition, he has not received much training in listening to different people, so his thoughts are relatively fixed and contradict some special thoughts.
My thinking inertia is social empirical and scientific. The former will not be described in detail here, but the difference is that I give social experience far less weight than my uncle, while the latter is the result of training in rationalism and humanism. Rationalism emphasizes logic, while humanism emphasizes caring for people and human nature.
The reason for the discord between the two lies in the asynchrony between science and the mainstream of society.
Of course, I am not stating who is right and who is wrong.
Just like the answer I took to my uncle was a laugh.
Neither is right or wrong.
But for me, I think mine is better.
So I'm working on it.
But it doesn't have to be a conflict with your uncle.
If he didn't realize it or didn't want to know it, then it would be fine not to let him participate in this matter in a respectful way.
Because after all, my goal is things, not quarreling with people or setting limits for myself.
I think "Whale Rider" can also be explained from this perspective.
(It's a bit hasty, but it can be improved a lot in terms of structure and logic.)
