parents must put their hands on their chests and swear to the kindergarten: "no matter what, i will never turn my back on the teacher."

parents and students must sign a promise to the school: "we will not take photos or record videos of any incidents of bullying on campus."

this absurd sense of ritual was performed so solemnly and naturally.

the sense of ritual can create a kind of cognitive dissonance. the more people there are and the more orderly the order, the easier it is to do so.

the problem is that those who are caught up in it rarely say "no" because they are in a weak position.

when someone demands this sense of ritual, they are essentially making a declaration of power.

this is not just the case on campus. our society seems to be increasingly advocating "strong logic." that is, for the disadvantaged, people are insignificant and reason is insignificant.

let’s not talk about those three years for now. the ordinary people, after wearing a red armband, could not help but walk with their arms crossed.

going a little further back, a property management company once sent a notice to homeowners in a residential area, warning them "not to make irresponsible comments about the property."

a more recent example is the woman in qingdao land rover who drove against the traffic and hit someone, then fled. it would have been fine if she had shouted "what's wrong with me hitting you?", but some people were so sincere and put themselves in her shoes, trying to deduce the legitimacy of her beating.

under the "value of the strong", people all hope to be strong rather than weak, and in order to demonstrate their strong status, they will wantonly humiliate the weak.

the result of the deduction of "strong logic" is that people try to become a kind of exclusive social power "monster" and constantly achieve defensive self-expansion, making the society full of tension.

under the systematic oppression of the weak, the weak are often just the "background board" of the strong and can only play the submissive social roles that they "should" play.

it even gives people a feeling that the weak are just a tool to show the strength of the strong.

even some public officials are not immune and have to file complaints and reports online using their real names, because they are the weak among the powerful, and above them are even more powerful people.

i very much hope that from the top (government agencies, social elites) to the bottom (public opinion, culture, and morality), we can use lasting and powerful force to condemn the strong bullying the weak and create a trend of supporting the disadvantaged.

however, thousands of years of feudal traditions and decades of planned economic system have created a terrible habit of "strong logic".

when faced with a strong force that bullies the weak, the most important thing is to strengthen your own awareness of resisting the strong and your own sense of justice.

when faced with unreasonable, irrational and illegal things, if one obeys this and caters to that like a grandson, and deceives himself with tolerance like ah q, one can only develop the virtues of aiding and abetting the tyrant and being a slave.
