How can young people in the new era carry forward the spirit of patriotism in combination with the fight against the COVID-19 epidemic?

First, it is obvious to all students that China's spirit of loving the people by fighting COVID-19 pneumonia has played a good role in paving the way for patriotism education in colleges and universities, which can make college students realize that the spiritual connotation of Confucian culture is not empty, but actually exists around us, thus enhancing students' understanding of benevolence and cultivating patriotism.

Second, the country's "people-oriented" anti-epidemic policy and decision-making arrangements have fully demonstrated the spiritual core of Confucian "benevolent government" thought. In-class and out-of-class are fully connected, complement each other, and turn abstract into concrete, so that students can deeply realize that the essence of patriotism in the new era is the high unity of patriotism, love for the party and love for the socialist cause, establish patriotic aspirations and stimulate learning motivation.

Third, when the epidemic broke out, many people resolutely joined the fighting team, including many young people in the new era of China. They were fearless in times of crisis and charged ahead. This is a prominent embodiment of individual values placed in collective and national values, and it is also a realistic epitome of Confucian feelings about home and country. Through the practice of anti-epidemic, students can understand Confucian culture and cultivate patriotism by relying on feelings of home and country, so that students can realize that young people in China in the new era should not be confined to personal interests, but should firmly link their personal development with the future of the motherland, consciously study for the rejuvenation of China, turn book knowledge into practical actions, and become pioneers, pioneers and devotees in the forefront of the times.
