Dong Mingzhu's view of "no country, how can there be a home" has sparked heated discussions among netizens. This phrase is actually a topic that is often mentioned, and as the times change, people's understanding of this view is also changing. The current discussion reflects a new understanding and reflection on the relationship between the State and the family.
First, the state and the family are mutually reinforcing. The State provides a secure and stable environment for the family, which is the basic unit of the country's social structure and plays an important role in the long-term stability and development of the country. The relationship is interdependent and neither party can exist alone.
However, some commentators point out that sometimes people in the upper echelons may use such words to express their patriotic feelings, but this may mislead people to ignore the important role of the family in the country. Some commentators have argued that overemphasizing the state may lead to the neglect of personal and family interests, thereby upsetting the healthy balance between the state and the family.
There is also a view that when some people overemphasize that "there is no country, there is no home," they may be deliberately creating antagonism and contradictions. Such rhetoric may be used by some to blackmail or suppress people, making them feel that it is unpatriotic not to say or act in this way. But in reality, the prosperity and stability of the country require the contribution of every family, and the happiness of every family also needs the guarantee of the state.
