Recently, a legal dispute caused by online speech has caused a stir on social **. The well-known education blogger Xuefeng not only attracted widespread attention from netizens because of his remark that "liberal arts are all service industries", but also attracted legal prosecution from a blogger named "Gu Yanyou". This incident is not only about personal reputation, but also touches on the prejudice and perception of liberal arts students in society. Today, let's take a closer look at the ins and outs of this incident and the deep-seated social issues behind it.
First, let's review the course of this incident. On December 9, 2023, Zhang Xuefeng published it in a live broadcast"Liberal arts are all service industriesand used"Lick".This is a word used to describe the professional behavior of liberal arts students. As soon as this remark came out, it immediately caused an uproar on the Internet. Many netizens have said that Zhang Xuefeng's remarks are too extreme and are suspected of belittling liberal arts students. Subsequently, Zhang Xuefeng posted two apology messages on his personal social account in a row, but it did not seem to calm the anger of netizens.
Just as the incident continued to ferment, the blogger "Gu Yanyou" stood up. He posted a long post on social platforms, saying that Zhang Xuefeng's remarks were a blatant insult and provocation to the liberal arts student group, and decided to sue him to the court. In the indictment, "Gu Yanyou" elaborated on the broad scope of liberal arts and social contributions, and pointed out that Zhang Xuefeng's remarks were a deliberate dwarfing and were suspected of insult. He demanded that Zhang Xuefeng publish an apology statement in domestic provincial newspapers and periodicals and compensate him for one yuan for mental damages.
The reason why this incident has attracted so much attention is not only the controversy involving the remarks of Internet celebrities, but more importantly, it touches on the prejudice and perception of liberal arts students in society. In the eyes of many people, liberal arts students always seem to be associated with labels such as "service industry" and "inferior". However, this is not the case. The liberal arts cover many fields such as journalism, literature, management, finance, economics and **, which have made great contributions to the prosperity and stability of society.
Taking journalism as an example, it is not only an important channel for information dissemination, but also a guide and supervisor of society. In the information age, the role of journalists is becoming more and more important, they use their pens and lenses to record the changes of the times and convey the positive energy of society. Another example is management, which is the key to the efficient operation of enterprises and social organizations. Excellent managers can lead the team to create greater value and promote the progress of society.
Therefore, we cannot simply classify liberal arts students as "service industry", let alone use the word "licking" to describe their professional behavior. Every industry has its own unique value and significance, and the same is true for liberal arts students. They use their wisdom and talents to shine in their respective fields and contribute their own strength to the development of society.
Regarding Zhang Xuefeng's remarks, the prosecution of "Gu Yanyou" is undoubtedly a powerful riposte. He used the law to protect the dignity and rights of liberal arts students, and also set an example for us to dare to say "no" to prejudice. We should praise the courage and action of "Gu Yanyou", and at the same time hope that this incident can arouse more people's recognition and respect for liberal arts students.
In closing, I would like to say that no matter what industry we are in or what kind of work we do, we should maintain a heart of awe and respect. Every industry has its own value and significance, and everyone has their own dreams and pursuits. We should learn to appreciate and respect each other's differences and choices, and work together to create a harmonious and inclusive social environment.
This controversy over the "liberal arts are all service industries" is not just a legal dispute, it is a deeper reflection of our society's cognitive bias against liberal arts education and career choices. I hope that in the future, with the progress of society and the renewal of educational concepts, we will be able to break these prejudices and shackles, so that everyone with dreams can fly freely in the field that suits them.
