What wrong ideas should we morally oppose in dealing with traditional issues?

The wrong thoughts to be opposed in dealing with traditional problems: cultural revival and historical nihilism.

Cultural retro-ism: a cultural trend of thought in modern times, which originated from the collision between Chinese and western cultures. Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao are its main representatives.

Historical nihilism: a term of historical theory refers to the blind denial of the historical development process of human society, even the denial of historical culture, national culture, national tradition and national spirit, and the denial of all historical viewpoints and ideological tendencies without concrete analysis.

Characteristics of historical nihilism:

First, try to belittle and deny the revolution.

A prominent manifestation of historical nihilism is to denigrate and mock the anti-imperialist and anti-feudal struggle of the people of China for national independence and people's liberation, and to denigrate and deny the socialist direction of social development and its great achievements in China. The so-called "farewell to revolution" theory is not only the concentrated expression of this trend of thought, but also its undisguised real purpose. The reason why historical nihilism focuses on "revaluation" in modern history is to deny revolution.

Second, in the name of "academic research", "re-evaluation" and "rewriting history", make a conviction article and set a "theoretical trap"

Historical nihilism is completely contrary to rational thinking. In order to deny the justice and necessity of revolution, they tried their best to praise western capitalism and feudalism, marginalize or even vilify revolutionary political parties, leaders and revolutionary mass movements that promoted historical progress, praise reactionary forces and their representatives that hindered historical progress, and put them at the center of the historical stage. This kind of reversing history is anti-rational thinking.

Third, there are clear political demands.

Since the reform and opening up, there have been various erroneous ideological trends that have harmed society, such as neo-liberalism, democratic socialism and universal values. Although they have different views and different forms of expression, they have the same political demands.

This is mainly manifested in: opposing the Four Cardinal Principles and the foundation of the country, trying to reverse the development direction of modernization and reform and opening up, and bringing China into the western capitalist system. Historical nihilism expressed this political appeal with its own characteristics.
