Views on "not suffering from widowhood but suffering from inequality" ... ~!

To tell the truth, I am very critical of this view, which is a backward feudal view and a reflection of the Confucian thought of "golden mean", which greatly influenced an era.

This thought has two parts: suffering and not suffering.

Uneven "bitterness" is the equality pursued by the masses in feudal times. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, Hong Xiuquan also put forward the principle of equality of "having clothes, food, fields and ploughing ...", which is the pursuit goal of capitalism.

The mistake is that his premise is "not bitter" and not bitter, which means that it doesn't matter if you are less, and everyone can feel at ease. This concept is seriously backward. It denies development and progress and blindly pursues egalitarianism. This average is not based on material development and progress, but ignores material progress and simply pursues a balance.

The prevalence of this idea will inevitably lead to the backwardness of the times.
