Why did the New Culture Movement in Senior Three totally deny the tradition?

To judge a historical event, we need to look at the essence through the phenomenon. Why put forward the new culture movement? The background of the incident was the restoration proposed by Yuan Shikai, which greatly damaged the successful fruits of the Revolution of 1911. Judging from the political and economic environment at home and abroad, the great development of national capitalism, imperialist aggression and warlord rule at that time made the situation at home and abroad tense, and the Revolution of 1911 made democratic ideas deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Therefore, the emergence of the New Culture Movement was not only the product of the comprehensive effects of economic, political, ideological and cultural factors in the specific historical period at that time, but also the inevitable result of long-term material and ideological preparation in modern China. On the one hand, it opposes Yuan Shikai's restoration under the banner of respecting Confucius and Confucianism; On the other hand, due to Chen Duxiu's leadership style, only a total denial can prevent the restoration of feudalism and overthrow the fruits of the victory of the Revolution of 1911, which is the need of the times.
