Today's Internet celebrities can do anything for the sake of traffic. In the "Youshen" event held in Changle District, Fuzhou, Fujian, an Internet celebrity pretended to be "Zhao Shizi" and walked in the forefront of the "Youshen" team without understanding the local customs and habits, causing dissatisfaction among netizens.
In this comment on People's Daily Online, although there is a sense of criticism in it, does the review need to be more careful? Is that passage in the introduction really appropriate as a conclusion? Is it reasonable for an official media to raise flags and shouts for the worship of ghosts and gods in our materialist country?
We finally through a thorough revolution, eradicated the shackles of feudal etiquette and religion that have bound people for thousands of years, and now face our traditional culture with a calm and unhurried attitude, but in recent years, the rise of bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods, such as ** rules, female Durban, etc., all the old feudal remnants are appearing again.
The Internet is not without memory, and this is not the first time these state media have done such things. I still remember what another official media said when it criticized young people for making incense. That is called a fierce rhetoric, that is called a sincere attitude, although bullshit does not make sense, but they also know that the gods and Buddhas are ethereal, and can only be a placebo for the soul. How can it involve this kind of real "wandering gods" and "welcoming gods" activities, and praise the cultural heritage implied in them without criticizing? Aren't these activities incense? There are no young people for these activities?
Let's talk about this so-called "Zhao Shizi" again. It doesn't matter who he is, what matters is that he is just an incarnation, the incarnation of young people asking for the rejuvenation of gods and Buddhas, which belongs to the modern god-making movement.
In an atheistic secular country, there is no need to be so jealous, not so inhibited, and not so afraid of so-called retribution. Dafang admitted that this god was newly created, "Youshen Guanghua Zhao Shizi", which originated from the Youshen activity in March 2023, and the priesthood can give birth to children and daughters through dreams.
The country is too big, and some people inevitably believe in God. It's just that the direction of the official media can't be biased, the position can't be changed, the customs need to be affirmed, and the feudal superstition needs to be criticized.
Pity the front seat in the middle of the night, and don't ask the common people to ask the ghosts and gods. ”
