General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed at the training class for young and middle-aged cadres at the Central Party School that adhering to principles is an important character of communists and an important criterion for measuring whether a cadre is competent. For the Communists, "Mr. Good" is not really a good person. People who practice the doctrine of good people have no public heart, only selfishness, no righteousness, only tackyness, what is good is themselves, and what is bad is the atmosphere and the cause.
Communists must not be people who do not distinguish between right and wrong, who dare not offend others, and who only seek peace and security. Once we lose our stand, have no principles, do not dare to struggle, maintain a harmonious spirit, and "hello to me, good to everyone," it will inevitably lead to the result of "a mess" -- serious contradictions within the party, scattered work, confrontation between cadres and the masses outside the party, and damage to the interests of the masses.
Over the years, there have always been people who have competed to be "Mr. Good". The reason why "good guyism" has a certain market is nothing more than three aspects.
The first is the fear of offending people. Adhering to principles and telling the truth and telling the truth sometimes inevitably offends people, so that they lose votes in evaluation and promotion. The second is the fear of taking responsibility. It is said that "it is difficult to harvest water", once you say your true thoughts, suggestions and opinions, in case the consideration is improper, it will affect the decision-making, it is your own "pot". The third is to be afraid of burying the root causes. Stressing struggle and criticizing will inevitably lead to some people who are unwilling to understand and accept the feelings of disgust and antagonism, and from then on, they will both "look up and not look down", and even be retaliated against.
On the surface, "Mr. Good" has a "good" word written all over his body, but under the surface of gentleness, it is the party spirit is not strong, dare not take responsibility, lose principles, and have indifferent responsibility. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out to the point: "'Mr. Good' is not really a good person. People who practice the doctrine of good people have no public heart, only selfishness, no righteousness, only tackyness, what is good is themselves, and what is bad is the atmosphere and the cause. In essence, "Mr. Good" practices good-guy doctrine, and good-guyism is a "soft knife" that stifles the revolutionary will of communists, erodes the health of the party's body, and ultimately weakens the party's combat effectiveness and ruling foundation.
The key to whether or not we can sever ourselves with "Mr. Good" and with "good man doctrine" lies in whether we can stress principles in the face of major issues of right and wrong; this is an important touchstone for testing the character of communists. Remembering the life-and-death moment of the Zunyi Conference, Zhang Wentian resolutely chose to side with the correct line represented by Mao Zedong. After arriving in northern Shaanxi, Japan's aggressive policies and actions of attempting to monopolize China gradually escalated; under these circumstances, he believed that Mao Zedong's strategic principle of "integrating civil war with national war" and the deployment of "crossing the Yellow River in the east" and "opening up the western part of Shanxi" in light of the political situation were correct. At that time, some people thought that he "always ran after Mao Zedong", so he said very frankly, "Whoever the truth is in the hands of, follow whom" - how sonorous and powerful, loud and loud!
Truth is principle, and adherence to principle is adherence to truth. To be a "good gentleman" is to have the spirit of doing things impartially and being selfless with an iron face, stressing principles rather than face, and stressing party spirit rather than favoritism. Communists stress principles, and sometimes they must also look at their attitude and behavior toward small things. One winter, the organization saw Jiao Yulu running east and west all day, and the cotton clothes on his body were too thin, so they decided to take care of him 3 pounds of cotton, but he refused. His wife complained about him, and he patiently explained: "The relief materials are for the masses, and we can't ask for this cotton." Although my cotton coat is torn, I can still wear it. I am the leader and cannot be special. Such details bring vividly to life the image of a communist who dares and is good at upholding principles.
General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that communists "must not be vague and must not back down on issues of principle, otherwise they will be irresponsible to the party and the people, or even a crime." In the face of all kinds of new problems, especially major risks and tests, Communists must be "fighters", not blindly "gentlemen", let alone "good sir". It is necessary to constantly analyze oneself and "resist the erosion of all kinds of political dust and political microorganisms", and at the same time to take up the weapon of criticism to help comrades discover problems and correct mistakes. In fact, this is the sincere concern, love and responsibility for comrades. At the same time, party organizations at all levels must adhere to the correct orientation in employing people, pay attention to discovering and protecting those cadres who have good moral integrity and good quality, have a solid work style, and dare to grasp and dare to manage; they must never let those who dare to uphold principles and work in a down-to-earth manner suffer losses; and they should never let "Mr. Good Mr." Take advantage of the situation and have a market for good people.
