Shallow kung fu is empty. A disgusting groan. Apply mechanically. Formalism. Mechanism. The emperor's new clothes. Call a deer a horse. The blind touch the elephant. Carve a boat for a sword.
This is just a performance. That's great. Recite by rote. Except for the golden jade. Shouting slogans in vain. Deaf ears. Blind as a bat. Dong Shi is effective. Follow the trend. Voting machine
This is just a superficial phenomenon.
In name only. Have a head but no brain.
In name only. The surface is lively. Living dead
It thunders but it doesn't rain.
