Mr. Lu Xun was heartbroken by the numbness of the Chinese people, and when he watched foreigners chop off Chinese people's heads, he also cheered. One hundred years have passed, what progress has been made? As the bottom, is there any difference between being beheaded by one's own clan or being beheaded by a foreign clan? Is it more painful to be beheaded by a foreigner? If a country cannot provide its citizens with the most basic things, is there any need to be patriotic?
In "The Good Man in the Three Gorges", I still see numb Chinese people, but this numbness is more of a pathetic and pitiful numbness. Tobacco and alcohol are originally used to numb nerves, including drugs. When people are in pain, numbness becomes a physiological need. When people need to be numb to their own life and death and go "dangerous" to dig coal, is there a better line besides "Come on one" and "Cheers"? When he is numb to his own life and death, can he not be numb to other things? When Han Sanming and Ma Yaomei shared a piece of white rabbit, were they still numb?
Worse than this numbness is the so-called "middle class" numbness. Entertainment first, refuse to think. Such as the Golden Armor and the Night Banquet. On this issue, I don't want to say more. As the victims of thousands of years of ignorance of the people, these people, besides being pathetic and pitiful, are more shameful.
To put it mildly, it is called humanistic care, and in layman’s terms, it is called compassion. This is what we really lack. To borrow a sentence: Compassion is when your soul tries to enter the body of these characters, you must understand that they are also pursuing their own happiness. At this point, we should think about how many lasting disasters will be brought to us by the lack of humanistic spirit. What kind of China will it be like, where human nature is ignorant. When will the Chinese Renaissance begin, and when will it change our national character?
