People nowadays can say anything as long as they do not break the law, are not anti-party or anti-society. I don’t know since when, many people like to criticize and expose historical celebrities in the past. Many people enjoy doing this and talk about it to show their talents and knowledge.

Some people say that Yue Fei is not a national hero. Some people say that Lu Xun actually peeped on his Japanese sister-in-law taking a bath. In fact, Lu Xun was a flatterer, not a tough guy. Some people say that Confucius was a master of picking up girls. I think those people have the freedom to say these things. As long as they are not random fabrications, they can be said as long as they are well-founded and supported by written documents. You can also read articles like this. I support looking at historical celebrities from multiple perspectives. No matter how great a person is, he is still a mortal. He also has emotions and desires, and even had a runny nose when he was a child.

Since the invention of fire, human beings seem to have begun to become civilized. There is only fire, no pot, so it can only be eaten roasted. But after the invention of the pot, people realized that stir-frying makes food taste better. Therefore, everyone will stir-fry before eating, and stir-fry to get the flavor. Stir-fry the cold rice to get the fragrant Yangzhou fried rice. Similarly, now the cultural, entertainment, business and even academic circles all like to "hype". When things are hyped, people come to smell and take a look, and the ordinary becomes interesting. Now is the information age, there is too much information, but everyone likes to name something, and everyone wants to show their talents. To make people know and attract attention, you must know how to hype. Speculating on historical celebrities is also a good way to increase your reputation. So I set up a big pot on the computer, looked up scriptures, looked for historical celebrities, added fire, picked up the spatula, and started frying until I was sweating profusely. I really admire the hard work of these people.

I have not investigated whether Confucius was a master of picking up girls, whether Lu Xun spied on his sister-in-law, and whether he ever flirted with Japan. I think there is no need to compare this truth. Even then, it has little to do with Confucius' thought and Lu Xun's literature. In fact, we have learned the perspective of looking at problems from Marxism-Leninism and thought. We often say that thought is the crystallization of collective wisdom. Thoughts are not a person's thoughts. Thoughts are the collective thoughts of the older generation of revolutionaries represented by Mao Zedong. He is also a mortal. He was always called great in the past, but in fact he also made mistakes. Especially in his later years, his thoughts were extremely centralized and he liked personality worship. This was his mistake as an individual and cannot be said to be his thoughts. Similarly, Confucius' thoughts are also the crystallization of the collective wisdom of Confucian scholars, including Confucius, including his 72 students. Confucius' thoughts were elaborated and developed in subsequent dynasties. If Confucius is a master of picking up girls, then it is not Confucius’ thought that picks up girls. There is no conflict in our studying Confucianism represented by Confucius.

The world is inherently imperfect, and it would be idiotic to treat historical celebrities with perfect standards. I think it is rare for a human being to have a shining point in history. When looking at a person, you should also look at his shining points. I am also a living person. I will look at beautiful women a few more times when I see them. A runny nose can also occur when you have a cold. I also wet the bed as a child. These are normal.

I also write a lot of articles. The article represents my thoughts. I hope that when everyone reads my article, they will think that this is Chen Suxiong’s thoughts, and those life styles and details have nothing to do with Chen Suxiong’s thoughts. ;
