Hundreds of schools of help plan The famous mouth of the graduate school entrance examination has fired again, intuitively speaking, Zhang Xuefeng is afraid that it will be very dangerous this time. It's not been too long since the last rollover, and he himself has already foreseen this, and has publicly said himself:Either choose silence or passively disappear.
Recently, this Internet celebrity graduate school teacher made amazing remarks in a live broadcastTo put it bluntly, liberal arts is the "service industry", which can be summed up in one word: "licking".
As soon as these words came out, it caused an uproar.
The reason why it is so strong is mainly because most of the practitioners are from liberal arts backgrounds, and it is difficult to accept that their profession is defined as "licking", which is undoubtedly an emotional insult to the liberal arts masses.
Since the last bombardment of journalism, Zhang Xuefeng has begun to walk on thin ice.
This time, he was obviously caught again, and some of the ** made a big report, and several experts also stood up to denounce Zhang Xuefeng for being extreme, extreme, and one-sided.
However, I think there is still some one-sided element to these criticisms.
As a graduate school entrance examination blogger, he said that he reminded everyone to choose a major rationally, and some majors that seem to be lofty are actually very narrow in terms of employment, and it is difficult to find a job.
In addition, I noticed another related hot search today, pointing out that many fresh graduates encounter discrimination in the process of job hunting, and graduates of non-985 and 211 colleges have encountered rejection from many companies, which just shows that the employment environment is really bad.
In the face of the verbal criticism of the mainstream **, Zhang Xuefeng first apologized twice, and said that independent thinking is the basis for progress.
He laughed at himself that he might have said the wrong thing, and said that he was sorry for the audience and gave everyone a laugh.
He believes that he has not done anything wrong, but only objectively reminds everyone to calmly face the reality of professional choice and social employment.
Judging from the attitude of netizens, they support Zhang Xuefeng's point of view, thinking that although his words are vulgar, they are very real.
He believes that the liberal arts are the service industry, and the science is the manufacturing industryThat's basically true.
Zhang Xuefeng only tore apart the truth from the perspective of major choice and the reality of social employment to show everyone, he is only responsible for his major, and only responsible for parents and students who are faced with choosing a major, which is his position and logic.
Some of his words, though bloody enough, were too true.
Liberal arts or journalism are better at creating illusions or deceiving themselves, which is not Zhang Xuefeng's personal bias, but the bias of society as a whole, which reflectsOur current deformed discipline structure and unbalanced employment environment
In general, Zhang Xuefeng is just an outspoken person, and his remarks may be too direct and truthful, touching the pain points of some people.
However, from the perspective of employment reality, his views have been supported by the majority of netizens, so we cannot simply evaluate a person's remarks with bias, but should look at the problem from an objective point of view.
In the current environment of fierce competition for employment, majors such as journalism, Chinese language and literature, history, philosophy, marketing, business administration, tourism management, and hotel management seem to have many other employment options in addition to teaching and public institution establishment.
However, judging from the actual employment situation, the employment situation of liberal arts majors is not as optimistic as that of science majors.
Many units prefer to choose science students when hiring.
Of course, although finance, law, accounting and other majors also have a future, they need at least a graduate degree
For the increasing number of liberal arts students, the phenomenon of involution is becoming more and more serious.
In the competition for jobs, many people have to resort to more fierce competition in order to get better opportunities.
And when it comes to the highest level of involution, it is to lick the leader, and the young employees who have just been employed often have to follow this trend.
Someone may feel anxious about this status quo and extremely disgusted with this trend.
They firmly believe that they are cultural people and should not be called a service industry, because in their cognition, the service industry only refers to the work of providing labor services, and is not inferior, and they think that they are engaged in a higher level of spiritual and cultural work.
In their eyes,Haidilao's overly enthusiastic service is a typical representative of the service industry, which is not the case with oneself.
Therefore, when they heard Zhang Xuefeng classify liberal arts as a service industry, they instinctively reacted and criticized it, and they always believed that face was more important than anything else.
In fact, if you think about Zhang Xuefeng's words carefully, although they are too utilitarian, they are not completely unreasonable.
Agriculture is the foundation of people's livelihood, everyone is inseparable from food, industry is the foundation of the country to become strong, and manufacturing promotes scientific and technological progress and social innovation.
The service industry is actually a process of resource redistribution and a link to adjust social wealth to a reasonable range.
From a rational point of view, science creates value for the economy and promotes scientific and technological progressLiberal arts, on the other hand, provide emotional value to the public and contribute to social harmony
The two should complement each other, but the social structure is sometimes unbalanced, and this is not Zhang Xuefeng's fault, but the employment environment is too utilitarian.
For a long time, there have been voices in society that "liberal arts are useless", and judging from the current leadership structure, many people are also from engineering backgrounds.
But this does not mean that the liberal arts are really useless, if a social and cultural person feels that he is useless, then the development of civilization and science and technology will be hindered, and the sustenance of our survival and sustainable civilization is in the first place
In fact, looking at the current reality, liberal arts and sciences all need someone to do the work of licking.
For example, although Lao Zhang is a little crazy, and from time to time there is a wave of tiger and wolf words, he is not completely unreserved.
Whether it is liberal arts or science, you need to deal with people, and you can't avoid licking, in real life, whether you are a liberal arts or science, as long as you are alive, there is pressure in life, you need to observe words and feelings, and you need to be sophisticated
But reducing all liberal arts to a single word "licking" is indeed too one-sided, and it is not a big problem to do so in front of a specific target, but it is not conducive to social publicity.
Our ** likes to make a big fuss, take some remarks out of context and exaggerate.
Zhang Xuefeng is just a more talkative postgraduate blogger, who pushed him to the hot search again and again and made him successfully out of the circle?Who had to grasp some of his words and criticize them?
It is neither just nor reasonable to blame social problems on the liberal arts or sciences
In fact, the characteristics of the service industry are not determined by it, but by the power structure, which determines the direction and amount of resources allocated, and has little to do with the liberal arts and sciences.
Of course, we can't deny that some people are using their expertise to make money, which is understandable, but some people choose liberal arts not for employment considerations, but out of inner love and love.
Therefore, it is indeed unfair to reduce all liberal arts to one word "licking", and in this world, the work of licking is inevitable whenever and wherever it is.
As for Zhang Xuefeng, we may disagree with his views, but we cannot deprive him of the right to speak, we are a civilized country with a tradition of democratic and free speech, and we should tolerate different voices and accept doubts and criticisms.
What we need is not blind obedience and praise, but real feedback and rational discussion, and only by truly revealing the world can we truly achieve justice and conscience.
Now, Zhang Xuefeng himself has frankly admitted that he is an Internet celebrity, and believes that his remarks have posed a danger, which may hint at something.
Some people are born in Rome, and some people will never go to Rome in their lifetime, this is a social reality
Our final stubbornness is not to be silent, not to be defiled, not to fall, not to be evil. This is our bottom line and our dignity.
Swear words are ugly and harsh, but they are more real and deeper than lies, aren't they?
