First, the concept of hierarchy: Confucius respected monarchical power, patriarchal power and husband power, and advocated loyalty, filial piety and simplicity. In Confucius' view, husband and wife, monarch, minister, father and son have their own positions and strict ranks, so there is no need for equality, let alone the possibility of equality. As a result, China people only know autocracy and don't know democracy, thinking that fate is determined by heaven, but in fact, all people are born equal. Confucius' autocratic thought and hierarchical concept have gradually penetrated into the blood of China people, and have been flowing to this day, like maggots attached to bones, unable to get rid of them.
"The Analects of Confucius Yan Yuan" Confucius said: "Jun Jun, minister, father, son."
Confucius said to him in The Analects of Confucius: "A monarch makes his ministers courteous and his ministers loyal."
Confucius in the Analects of Confucius said: "It is filial piety not to change one's father's way for three years."
Second, Confucius advocated the policy of ignorance of the people and let the people do things according to the wishes of the rulers, but they should not know the reasons for doing so. Why a fool? In a word: Yi Zhi! China's backwardness since modern times and the servility in China people's bones are the result of the combined action of autocratic thought and ignorant education for more than two thousand years. I'm afraid Kong is the culprit.
"The Analects of Confucius Taber" Confucius said: "People can make it happen, but they can't make it known."
Third, simple dual thinking: in the eyes of Confucius, there are only two kinds of people, either gentlemen or villains. Such a simple dualistic thinking has caused China people to be at a loss when facing pluralistic society and problems. In fact, the complexity of human nature is beyond the reach of gentlemen and villains. Of course, Confucius thought that splitting in two was enough.
In the Analects of Confucius, Confucius said: "A gentleman is not comparable to Zhou, and a villain is not considerate."
Confucius said in The Analects: "An upright person is open and poised, while a narrow-minded person is anxious and worried." .
Confucius in the Analects of Confucius said, "A gentleman is righteous, but a villain is beneficial."
Fourth, Confucius only emphasized exposition and did not advocate originality. As a result, the intellectuals in China can only explain the thoughts of the ancients, mostly by exegesis, textual research and esoteric studies, while the birth of new ideas is almost impossible. This is the root of China's lack of thinking about everyone after the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. In addition, a nation that does not attach importance to originality will only have such a result: serious plagiarism and rampant piracy.
Confucius in The Analects of Confucius said, "Words are not enough."
5. Superstition of the ancients: Confucius' goal is always to be backward. I just hope that I can't go back to the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, wash my feet for the Duke of Zhou and rub my back for the Prince of Wu. As a result, everyone was superstitious about the ancients, who were superstitious about the elderly. At a young age, I began to be nostalgic, not enterprising, and only lamented that people are not ancient. In fact, the hearts of the ancients may not be today.
Confucius in The Analects of Confucius said, "Be faithful to the past."
6. Discrimination against women: Confucius despised women and regarded them as villains, which led to thousands of years of preference for boys and countless sins.
"The Analects of Confucius Yang Huo" Confucius said: "Only women are difficult to raise, and if they are near, they will not have grandchildren, and if they are far away, they will complain."
7. Narrow nationalism: The "orthodox" sense of cultural and moral superiority in Confucius' mind gradually evolved into the inexplicable concept of "China going abroad" in the eyes of Chinese people, which intensified in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the whole country did not know that there was a world outside, so it was humiliated in the late Qing Dynasty. If you guess carefully, more than half of human wars started from nationalism. The Germans and Japanese Yamato people in World War I and World War II thought they were superior to each other, so they became greedy and caused untold suffering. At present, the domestic economy has improved slightly, and nationalism has begun to clamor again. I hope that the Chinese people will be cautious and take a warning.
Confucius in the Analects of Confucius said: "It is better to die in the summer than to have a righteous emperor."
Eight, Confucius advocated that things have nothing to do with themselves and hang high. So, where does the sense of social responsibility start?
"The Analects of Confucius Taber" Confucius said: "If you are not in office, you will not seek political affairs.
Confucius was a typical elitist who looked down on the working people in his bones and regarded farmers, vegetable farmers and craftsmen as villains.
Confucius said in The Analects: "A gentleman is not a tool."
Fan Chi is invited to study The Analects of Lutz. Confucius said, "I am not as good as an old farmer." Please learn to be a nursery. Yue: "I am not as good as the old nursery." Leave Fan Chi. Confucius said, "Little people, Xu Fan!"
10. Confucius is hypocritical, and his words and deeds are different. When I met Nanzi in Weiguo, I made all my disciples unhappy, saying one thing and doing another.
The Analects of Confucius Yong Ye saw Nanzi, but Lutz didn't say it. The master said, "If you can't give it, you will never be bored!" " ! Tired of it! "
