In this era of rapid development, our daily lives seem to be constrained by an invisible "tightening spell". Laundry, walking, fishing, these are all routine activities, but now they have become cautious everywhere to avoid stepping on mines. Fines, a word that once only appeared on certain occasions, are now quietly infiltrating our daily lives like a shadow.
Laundry Trouble: Illegal Laundry and Daily Trivialities
Laundry, as an indispensable part of daily life, has now become a "high-risk" behavior. However, in reality, many people have been fined for laundry because of some unclear regulations. This seemingly absurd phenomenon truly reflects the absurdity and unreasonableness of the current era of fines. Somewhere in Guangxi, by a small river, a group of villagers are washing clothes by the river, talking and laughing. Two chengguan in blue uniforms showed up and tried to dissuade the villagers from washing their clothes, citing "illegal laundry".
The Penalty of Walking: The Risk Between Steps
Walking, as the most basic way of human mobility, has become difficult to walk nowadays. Walking on the sidewalk is a basic right of every citizen, however, in some places, there is a strange phenomenon that there are fines for walking. These fines are often vague and allow pedestrians to unknowingly break the law. Such an environment makes people wonder whether we are in a society governed by the rule of law or a society full of traps and fines? In the city, it is not much better, in order to maintain traffic order, pedestrians run red lights, jaywalk, and other behaviors are also illegal, and the traffic police will fine.
The purpose of setting up traffic lights is more to ensure the safety of pedestrians, who does not have an urgent matter at some time, and needs to cross the road quickly? But as long as you cross the line, you will be "hit", it will be illegal, and a fine of 20!
Proof of Fishing: The Weight of Leisure Activities
Fishing, as a leisure activity, is supposed to allow people to relax and enjoy the tranquility of nature. However, in this era of fines, fishing has never been easier. Applying for a fishing license has become a necessary condition for participating in this activity. The process of applying for a fishing license is often cumbersome and complicated, and even requires a lot of money. Such regulations not only increase the burden on fishing enthusiasts, but also make this otherwise easy activity stressful.
Public anger: unwilling to live in aggrieved terms
In the face of these ubiquitous fines, public discontent is building day by day. A comment ignited public outrage: "I'd rather go to war and die than live so aggrieved!" This sentence echoed the hearts of many people. In this time that should be full of hope, we feel unprecedented oppression and constraints. Fines, a seemingly simple word, are like mountains, overwhelming people.
Reflection and Prospect: The pursuit of a truly happy life
The daily life in the era of fines makes us have to reflect on what kind of life we are pursuing? Fines, as a means of management, are supposed to maintain social order and fairness. However, when fines become a ubiquitous "mantra", they lose their original meaning. What we need is not a society full of fines, but a vibrant and fair society.
In this day and age, what we should pursue is a truly happy life. This happiness should not be bound by fines, but should be based on freedom, equality and respect. Only when our daily lives are no longer plagued by fines can we truly feel the beauty and happiness of life.
Therefore, we need to revisit the existing fine system and return it to its original meaning. At the same time, we should also advocate for a more open, inclusive and fair social environment, so that everyone can breathe freely and live freely in this era.
