Understanding

"Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you" is the way of dealing with others that was first advocated by Confucianism. This sentence is impossible to achieve in a period of sharp and intense class contradictions. Today, under the premise of building a harmonious society, it is possible for people to be more tolerant, care less, empathize with each other, and put themselves in others' shoes. This can also promote unity and bring social stability.
