Every Christmas Eve, there will always be such a passage:
Whenever I see such a text, every Chinese's nerves will be deeply stung, and will unconsciously ask ourselves: What are we, the Western heroes and strong people burn and plunder us, and we have national hatred and hatred, but they have made up such festivals to insult us, too hateful, we ourselves are too brainless, hey Chinese ah Chinese, too easy to forget history.
But any statement must stand up to the comparison of historical facts, when we really open the history to inquire about the history of the burning of the Yuanmingyuan, we find that in fact, the time difference between the two is very large, and a variety of historical materials show that the first burning of the Yuanmingyuan was the British and French coalition forces, the time was from October 18 to 21, 1860. The second time was in the second half of 1900 and the beginning of 1901, and this time it was the act of the Eight-Power Alliance, because this time it was a long-term process, and it could not be simply said that it was in the Christmas days, mainly robbery. Therefore, it is at least not accurate to put the burning of the Yuanmingyuan by the Eight-Power Alliance around Christmas. Logically, the burning of the Yuanmingyuan occurred in the modern period, it is easy to find out, why every Christmas, there will be such a paragraph, Xiaobian analysis estimates that there are the following reasons:
01 Xenophobia No matter what era China has, there is no shortage of such a group of people, and they reject all foreign things, which is why there is great resistance to the foreign affairs movement and a great resistance during the reform and opening up.
02 Excessive publicity of merchants caused by disgust After all, Christmas is not a Chinese holiday, but merchants are used to hype up activities to sell goods, as if Christmas does not buy some things and do not consume well, it is not normal, resulting in a lot of disgust, excluding this kind of business to engage in festivals.
03 Blind obedience Psychology Some people like to blindly follow as long as they see a paragraph on the Internet, he will not use his brain to distinguish, because this kind of person is simply completely brainless, as long as he feels interesting, he will start to mess around.
We should not forget the history of our own national humiliation, of course, we can not use this way that violates the basic historical facts to exclude, I hope that next Christmas, so that the passages that violate common sense are less popular, and I hope that merchants will not over-hype the holiday.
