In recent years, the words "ordinary people" and migrant workers have become synonymous with ordinary and vulnerable groups. Who are the "common people"? Does it mean someone other than the rich? ** With power in their hands and more wealth for the rich, aren't they ordinary people? The reason why ** became ** is because the people have given them a right, but this right does not belong to him personally, it is just their job duty. But because they have this job, aren't they ordinary people?

In particular, "famous peasant workers" now not only express the meaning of "ordinary people" in the whole society, but also imply pitiful, disadvantaged, and even inferior. As a matter of fact, most of the people who have moved from the rural areas to the cities are already knowledgeable, educated, and thoughtful young people, and a large number of them are engaged in the construction industry in the cities, and in this industry, there are also many people from the urban hukou, but they are called construction enterprise workers, or construction industry workers. However, this group of people from the countryside is called "famous peasant workers".

Among the migrant workers who have moved from rural areas to cities, many are engaged in electronic processing, machinery manufacturing and other work in factories; Some work with the sanitation department to clean the city every day; Some are engaged in service work in thousands of households, shopping malls, supermarkets, and restaurants. But because they were born in the countryside, they had a unified name: Farmer Famous Worker.

Nowadays, the terms "peasant name worker" and "common people" have a clear discriminatory meaning in real society, and these two words have become labels of birth and status instead of occupational names and divisions. Some of the "common people" have been admitted to the civil service as officials, so aren't they "ordinary people"? Could it be that if someone in the "famous peasant worker" makes a lot of money, they (she) are not "famous peasant workers"? Looking at the elders, which person's ancestors did not come from the peasants, and that person's ancestors did not start from ordinary people! No matter who he or she is, even if he or she has countless halos and wealth, he or she is still a member of the big family of this country when he or she returns to the essence. Even if the profession is different, it is also a different social division of labor; Even if there is still a difference in geographical or resource advantages between rural and urban areas, there can be no distinction between high and low. All persons with the nationality of the People's Republic of China are citizens of the People's Republic of China, and everyone should be equal.

Therefore, under the circumstance that the current social atmosphere and cognition cannot be changed in one day, it is strongly recommended to cancel the two titles and expressions of "ordinary people" and "migrant workers" for specific groups of people, so as to establish the correct outlook on life and values of the whole society, and advocate the humanistic spirit of fraternity and enterprising!
