Public apology, compensation!The founding major general was slandered and desecrated, and 3 self-leading bloggers were severely punished by law. On the morning of December 21, the Hangzhou Internet Court publicly announced that the three defendants should publicly apologize at the national level, and compensate a total of 150,000 yuan for public welfare damages, which will be used for social welfare matters such as the commemoration, remembrance, promotion and protection of He Kexi's heroes and martyrs.

The revolutionary martyrs threw their heads and shed their blood, and exchanged their sacrifices and dedication for our happy life today. Their personal image cannot be discredited, their heroic deeds cannot be distorted, and their noble personality cannot be desecrated. The founding major general, who made outstanding contributions to the struggle for national independence and the liberation of the people, was used to refer to a historical figure with a negative image, and also called him a "traitor". Whether such an act is out of ignorance of history, lax control of content moderation, or deliberate in subjective motives, the result is that the image of revolutionary martyrs is damaged, the feelings of family members are hurt, and the public perception is misled.

Serious handling through legal means is an inevitable requirement for defending the personal reputation and honor of heroes, and it also shows the value adherence and moral bottom line that our era should have. In recent years, similar cases have repeatedly appeared in the newspapers and attracted attention. For example, in May 2021, in order to win attention, Qiu Mou, a citizen of Nanjing, used his social account with more than 2.5 million followers to publish content that slandered and derogated the heroic spirit of officers and soldiers defending the border of the country, and was sentenced to eight months in prison in accordance with the law. Another example is that Xu used a social account to post 2 pieces of information containing insults to the hero and martyr Dong Cunrui, and was sentenced to seven months in prison by the Beijing Dongcheng District People's Court in accordance with the law. These acts of wantonly distorting history and blaspheming heroes and martyrs have aroused strong public indignation and have also been severely punished by law, reflecting a zero-tolerance attitude towards blasphemy and slander of heroes and martyrs.

Why is there to be zero tolerance?The reason is actually very clear, and the answer is self-evident, but a few people pretend to be confused, hold on to luck, and try to fish in troubled waters. Respect and respect for heroes and martyrs is the most basic historical attitude of every Chinese and the emotional background of the Chinese nation. A very small number of people stigmatize national heroes and revolutionary martyrs, and some use entertainment methods such as "joking about history" and "exclusive secret history" to cater to the public's curiosity, diverting flowers and trees, taking words out of context, ridiculing national heroes and revolutionary martyrs, trying to confuse the public and confuse the public. The fundamental purpose of historical nihilism is to confuse people's minds, and we must be highly vigilant and take a clear-cut stand against it.

In recent years, through the in-depth implementation of heroes and martyrs, the "special action to purify the online environment", and the continuous promotion of the "clear" series of special actions, harmful information such as historical nihilism on the Internet has been effectively curbed, and opposition to historical nihilism has increasingly become conscious. However, it should also be noted that with the continuous development of new forms and models of the Internet, some historical nihilism has also put on a "vest" and a "stealth cloak", playing fragmented sales and precise communication, which is even more confusing and deceptive. Some self-leading practitioners blindly pursue traffic, attract people's attention, create a sensational effect, do not screen network information, do not strictly review and control, and there are blind spots in knowledge, which objectively causes the accelerated spread of harmful information. The Internet has never been a place outside the law. These typical cases of legal sanctions and punishments have repeatedly told people that morality should have a bottom line, let alone touch the red line of the law.

A promising nation cannot be without heroes. To forge the backbone of the Chinese nation and inherit the heroic spirit, we should start by respecting and defending heroes, and we must have zero tolerance for blasphemy and slander of heroes and martyrs
