Yesterday, in "Coincidental Festivals, Strange Festivals, Selective Festivals", it was mentioned that when people called for rational "foreign festivals", some "diodes" raised the bar, slandered us, and said that we do not let people live Western festivals.
This is also too small to look at our Chinese arrogance, we just do not let them spread and instill religious beliefs through the festival, but only hope to dilute religious elements, hope to integrate into Chinese culture.
Once saw a chicken soup story.
Someone asked how to keep a drop of water from drying out, and the answer was to let it blend into the sea.
Our Chinese civilization has been able to continue for thousands of years without interruption, and it is still living more and more moist, and one of the big reasons is that Chinese culture is particularly inclusive.
If nothing else, let's start with our totem: the dragon.
Dragons are a very magical object, and the reason why I say objects, not creatures, is because I think that dragons should not exist, not only do not exist now, but may not have appeared in history.
Since it has not appeared, why is it used as a totem?
Look at the Flag of England.
The crosses on the British flag are a combination of the flags of england (white-ground red cross-cross), Scotland (blue-ground white cross-cross) and Northern Ireland (white-ground red cross-cross).
Speaking of dragons, there are many theories about the origin of the image of the dragon, one is from the crocodile, the other is from the snake, some people think it comes from the pig, and even some people say that the earliest dragon is the lightning in the sky when it rains. Most experts now believe that dragons are totem complexes with snakes as the main body. It has the body of a snake, the head of a pig, the horns of a deer, the ears of a cow, the whiskers of a sheep, the claws of an eagle, and the scales of a fish, which are combined into a dragon totem.
Obviously, the image of the dragon is similar to the British flag, which is superimposed by various buffs.
In ancient times, many primitive tribes used animals as totems, and the reason why dragons have the characteristics of so many different animals shows that our ancestors did not come from a certain tribe, but many tribes were formed by merging together, such as the Yandi tribe and the Yellow Emperor tribe, plus the Xuanyu tribe, and countless tribes whose names we cannot know.
The ethnic groups formed by this fusion have long been inclusive and engraved in the blood.
As another example, in the West, Jews have been expelled and oppressed for more than 2,000 years and still retain their population characteristics. It is said that Jews also came to China in ancient times, and after a long period of reproduction and integration, although their descendants still remember their origins, they can hardly see the characteristics of Jews.
Why are they able to integrate into the Chinese? Of course, it is the tolerance of Chinese civilization.
Well, now some people say that we are xenophobic, it must be unreasonable.
There are even rumors that the reason why Japan invaded us was because we were anti-Japanese at that time.
Sorry, quite the opposite.
At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the People's Republic, although Japan launched the Sino-Japanese War, although it ceded Taiwan, and so on, at the beginning of the 20th century, when a major earthquake occurred in Japan, we in China could repay the grievances with virtue.
This story of the farmer and the snake, the snake bites the farmer, you say the farmer is anti-snake? Oh my!
Sorry, it's too far a stretch, back to the point.
First, let's talk about how to look at "foreign objects".
It has been mentioned that all musical instruments with two or more words are basically not produced in China, and the same is true for crops with two or more words.
For example, pipa, oh na, although they are now called folk music, but it is really from the western region, such as watermelon, tomato, carrot, are not native to the land of China.
Therefore, the "diodes" who raise the bar at the beginning are still too lacking in learning, and will only be there to twitter and get entangled in religious and secular topics.
We have been a particularly tolerant nation since ancient times.
Tolerance is tolerance, for foreign objects, we are not rejected, such as opium, such as spiritual opium, such as foreign garbage, we are not welcome.
Let's talk about "international friends".
Over the years, foreigners have enjoyed good treatment in China, and many of them are supranational.
This is very abnormal.
Some foreigners with low quality even let the "Chinese out" on Chinese soil.
That's too much.
We just complained a few times, and some people said that we were exclusive and unfriendly to foreigners.
Soberly, this is China, China is a country ruled by law, a country that emphasizes equality, it is a socialist country, foreigners can come to China, in confucius's words, that is a friend from afar, not happy, but can the words and deeds of some foreigners still be regarded as "international friends"?
When you come to China, you must abide by China's laws, you can't engage in special things, you can't engage in privileges, otherwise, if I run away from your country to become a grandfather, can you "be happy"? You have to be friendly, you are an international friend, otherwise, you are not friendly, even law-abiding, but don't blame me for not treating you as an "international friend".
If you come to China, if you are building socialism together, we will certainly welcome you, and if you admire Chinese civilization and come and have a look, we will also be very friendly. However, friendliness is friendship, you can't kneel, this is not the way to treat guests! Can't kneel and lick, it's not fair!
Isn't the "Edinburgh" incident in "Mumbai, China" absurd?
We can't gather our own people, foreigners can gather for birthdays, and people can't be so double standards!
The writing is messy, so let's wrap it up.
In a word, we absolutely cannot accept all the "foreign objects" and "foreigners" as ordered, but we must use our brains, and I want to have interests in me.
It's not utilitarian, it's reality.
