Recently, Qinghai Province on the mainland has suffered from a severe drought, and many people have prayed for Qinghai online, showing their patriotic feelings. However, a major earthquake struck Japan at the same time, which also caused concern, but the truth of the matter is thought-provoking.
Netizens' reactions to the earthquakes in Qinghai and Japan were not fair and calm. There seems to be a moral skew in their actions, but there are few donations and prayers for domestic events. This phenomenon makes people wonder, what is more important?
On social networks, many people have followed and supported the drought in Qinghai Province. In the face of the great earthquake in Japan, under the tranquility, there is only the voice of prayer and encouragement for the other side. This differential treatment has sparked heated discussions among the majority of netizens.
It is understood that although China's diplomatic department has expressed deep and sincere condolences to Japan, there are still people who insist that most of the comments and sharing on Japan reveal deep concern for Japan. The results of the comparison are deeply confusing, as it seems that their patriotism is not limited to themselves, but also includes what they perceive as foreigners.
Some netizens said that they insisted on the fair sharing of relevant information and called on more people to look at various incidents calmly. They pointed out that China has always paid attention to promoting the spirit of friendship and mutual assistance in the face of foreign disasters, for example, the Japanese government sent a rescue team to support the mainland during the Wenchuan earthquake in 08.
To sum up, we should take a more rational and sober attitude towards every event concerning the common interests of mankind, regardless of whether it is internal or external, big or small. We expect everyone to realize our responsibility in opposing patriotic sentimentality.
