There is a debate on the Internet: whether the family is important or the country is important.
Actually, it's a false proposition;Home and country are not a matter of who matters, but of responsibility. It depends on what angle you say. If it is from the perspective of personality, of course, the family is important, and the home is gone, what kind of country is there to talk about?What country is not made up of thousands of homes?If I say that my home is important from the perspective of commonality, it is also in vain, and the country has the final say whether it is important or not. The state says to wear a mask, that is a must, not for yourself, but more importantly for others.
What's the least important?
The least important thing is to talk nonsense on the Internet all day long about the importance of the country over the family. With that idle work, hurry up and make money, support your own family, and pay taxes to the country, what a good thing.
There is also a perspective, which is the cultural perspective.
From a cultural point of view, it is about historical evolution, and in ancient times, it was proper that the home was more important than the country.
This can be felt from the language Xi, we will say: family and country feelings;But it won't say: national feelings. What's going on?This is because, in ancient times, the home was indeed larger than the country.
Of course, the kingdom of ancient times is different from the kingdom in the modern sense;The kingdom must have a territory from the mouth. In earlier times, it was to be walled offThe early kingdoms of ancient Greece were actually city-states;It's a big deal.
When did China start to have a state?
The Three Emperors and Five Emperors couldn't be called a country in that era, there was no Yan Empire or Yellow Empire, they were all tribal alliances. The residence is not so fixed, and it is necessary to make a magnificent migration from the north to the south at every turn. Modern people study Sanxingdui, feeling that it is a culture that fell from the sky, and the level of bronze products is too high, which is definitely a strange and alternative in the southwest culture, so some people speculate that it is the migration of Egyptians;I think it's a vein of Shaohao, who migrated from today's Shandong, and there is a Fusang tree Jiuwu as evidence, all of whom are descendants of the bird family. Its legendary story is "There are fish in the north of the underworld" in Zhuangzi's "Getaway". It is recorded in Qi Di's different book "Qi Harmony" that Shang Tang asked the thorns is not a lie, but it is recorded in the form of totems and deified brushwork.
The tribal alliance is actually a big family.
For example, Shao Hao is the leader of the tribal alliance, then, the divided clans are all the differentiation of a big family, which is similar to the current rural division, and it is from the same family in terms of blood, and their respective land, finance, and people are independent and do not belong to Shaohao. The separated clans became more and more independent, and they became states. When it came to the Western Zhou Dynasty, since it couldn't be controlled, then simply everyone established a common covenant, all of them were subjects under the name of Zhou Tianzi, built their own country, the territory was solidified, and they paid regular tribute, which became a vassal state. This kind of sub-feudal system is still bigger than the country, because at least nominally, it is still the big world of Zhou Tianzi's family.
This kind of blood rule is difficult to last, it is said that it is a family, the monarch and the minister, the father and the son, but, as Confucius said: "The gentleman's ze, the fifth generation and beheaded", five generations later, what father, son and son, no one recognizes whom, the result is that the world is in chaos, and the country of brothers is like a chicken.
After Daqin unified the world, it was still a family world, home is the country, the country is the family, and the family is as big as the country. This pattern continued until the Qing Dynasty.
Now that we have entered the era of civilization, the home is no longer a country, and the country is separated from the home, which is the sum of thousands of homes. Of course, the country is bigger than the family, but the essence of management is the will of the group, although the United States is a ** system, in fact, it is a shell, and it is a small number of people who implement the will of the whole people through elections.
We are a socialist country, and the difference is that the will of the majority is realized through a people-centered party program.
So is it a big family or a national university?
In the consciousness of the public, of course, it is the National University, and everyone will say, if the country is gone, what is the home?In fact, the problem is not seen this way, the country is gone, the home is still there, but it has lost its national character;But if there is no home, the existence of the country will be meaningless to the people, so the country is also big, the people's livelihood, the world's affairs, what is more important than the people's livelihood?
Of course, I don't have so many feelings, and my life will have to pass.
The value of my limited life is in my small home, no matter how much wind and rain there is, as long as I return home, I will calm down, and the country is the supreme protector of each of our small families, and I offer it in my heart, only for my home.
Isn't my consciousness too vulgar?
