Let's talk about it today"Dao".The so-called "Dao" is the lowest level of a country and a clan, not as direct and powerful as money and swords, but for a long time, after all, the "Dao" determines everything, which is the long-lasting heritage of a country and a clan. A few days ago, an internationalist fighter and a non-commissioned officer of the U.S. Air Force lit a fire in front of the Israeli Embassy in the United States, and even though he was burned by the flames, he still stood tenaciously by his will and faith for 40 seconds, repeatedly shouting "free palestine" until he could no longer hold on. What is surprising is that after he fell to the ground, a white guard, instead of putting out the fire, actually pointed a gun at him, but a black policeman tried to put out the fire while shouting at the white guard, "I don't need a gun, I need a fire extinguisher."
This incident was an extremely heavy blow to the United States, and it will still be remembered by the people of the time decades later. To understand this, one needs to understand the American and **religious beliefs. The fighter's name was "Aaron Bushnell", which translates to "Aaron Bushnell" in Chinese.
The name "aaron" is unusual, coming from the Hebrew word "aharon", which means "great and noble", and is a name from the Old Testament, the name of the brother of Moses, the oldest prophet of Judaism. The letter "h" was removed from the translation into Greek. The name "aaron" is not something that ordinary Western families can give at will, either Jews or from the most religious families; And the surname "bushnell" is not ordinary, this is an ancient surname that originated in England, is a typical Angsa surname, is the earliest immigrants to the United States, far more orthodox than later immigrants from Western Europe, Southern Europe and even other continents, his family is just in Texas, where the religious tradition is particularly heavy. The name "Aaron Bushnell" alone is very unusual, not to mention that he has believed in ** religion since he was a child, likes animals, cares for others, actively joins the army, and has received a good education to become a software engineer, and is a non-** activist in thought, and the family he grew up in is a military family, and his grandfather and father are US military officers, which meansHe is the epitome of America's most core values。Note that there is a detail that the word "sacrifice" is used in front of the town, not "**" or "suicide". This is very important because suicide is an unforgivable sin in the religion and a serious act of self-denial, and the burning at the stake is used to punish the infidels in the religious tradition. Think about it, "Aaron Bushnell" grew up in the most devout ** sect family, and judging from his words and deeds, he has an extremely strong belief in ** religion, how desperate such a person must be to choose the "** way to die." Such a person chooses "** can no longer be called", but ** the more noble "sacrifice" in the religion, and the English "self-immolation" in addition to **, another meaning is sacrifice. "Aaron Bushnell" can be described as a sprout of roots, to deny him is to deny the United States, in the United States, where the identity is becoming more and more detailed and more **, no one can deny him from the identity, not even Israel and Jews can oppose him. Therefore, whether it is the United States or Israel, the only thing that can downplay the impact is to control ** and limit the spread, and at the same time spread rumors that "Aaron Bushnell" has mental illness, but how can this stand? The ** recorded by "Aaron Bushnell" in front of the embassy makes it clear that "I will no longer be complicit in genocide." I will act in an extreme way, but it is not extreme at all compared to what the Palestinian people experienced at the hands of the colonizers. This is what our ruling class considers normal. Liberation of Palestine. "His suicide note is also very clear, very rational, full of humanism and religious beliefs:
Everything he has on the social ** platform proves that he is very rational and sober and full of love for the world, and he also clearly expressed his change in political tendencies, from a conservative ** at the beginning, and later a non-** person, inspired to abolish all hierarchical power structures, especially capitalism and the state, and liberate all mankind. This kind of internal explosion is immeasurable for the United States, and the flame he ignited cannot be extinguished by the United States, because if it is extinguished, it means that the United States will fundamentally abandon the foundation of the country and oppose the background of thousands of years of ** religion, how is this possible? The town shared a lot of religious influences on the United States, not only hoping that everyone would understand what the United States really is, but also hoping to find the possibility of rebuilding a new stable relationship between China and the United States, or find the fundamental point of the United States' opposition to the United States. The fire of "Aaron Bushnell" is very representative, which means that even if the United States, which was founded by Protestantism and experienced the erosion of global immigrant culture, and is increasingly polarized, it still has extremely strong beliefs of **Christianity, which largely meansThe "Tao" of American society, or it can also be understood as the subtle, bottom-level core values. Note that this is talking about the most traditional beliefs of the ** religion. In traditional religion, the ultimate goal is to attain eternal life, and the only way to attain eternal life is to obtain salvation from God, and there are two core principles in this system:Absolute faith in the Lord, love your neighbor as yourselfFrom the First Commandment of the Old Testament, "There shall be no other God before God," and the Gospel of Luke in the New Testament. In the New Testament, Jesus answers the question of how to receive eternal life with two answers: "love the Lord with all your heart, with all your pleasure, with all your might, with all your mind" and "love your neighbor as yourself."
These two are not doubtful for any ** disciple, the "good Samaritan" in the Western ** religion culture comes from here, the Samaritans are a foreign people who moved after the destruction of North Israel by Assyria, and they are typical alien races, but when discussing who should be loved in the New Testament, it is not based on religious beliefs, but according to deeds, if a Samaritan saves others, it is a neighbor worthy of love. This led to the birth of the Good Samaritan Act, which "saves when you die". It needs to be admitted that any religion will have a lot of alienation and distortion in the subsequent inheritance and evolution, but it can be spread all over the worldThe most fundamental Tao must be full of the most simple humanitarianismNo matter how many Reformations, religions, whether Catholicism, Orthodox, Protestantism or Judaism, whether they continue to adhere to it or not, it is impossible to deny this most fundamental "Tao". This seems a bit ironic, and it is extremely contradictory to the Americans destroying other countries with barbaric wars, but from the perspective of the United States, this is because the United States claims to be God's chosen people, and its country is a "city on a hill" that represents the highest value of mankind, so Americans have the obligation to pass on their own set to the whole world and force all changes that are different from those of the United States, believing that this is helping all mankind and fulfilling its obligations to God, which is the "manifest destiny" in the hearts of Americans.
Of course, the whole world, including us, does not recognize the hegemony of the United States and has put forward many negative arguments, but the Americans will not listen to or understand the reasoning of this kind of opposition, but will be more determined to believe that opposition to the United States needs to be reformed. How to break it? Or how to make Americans realize their mistakes? "Aaron Bushnell" offers a great angle, and that is:From the perspective of human harmony of "loving one's neighbor as oneself", which is the most fundamental religion, we should use our own conscience to evaluate whether it is right or wrong with the most simple humanitarianism.
Israel will resolutely oppose Gaza's **, as long as there is still the most basic human conscience, and it has nothing to do with politics and positions. To put it bluntly, Israel can wage war for its own interests, but it must not engage in such a bottomless **, and for a staunch believer in **religion or Judaism,Supporting Israel and supporting Israel's ** for Gaza are two different things。This is why there are a lot of US soldiers who participated in the war after World War II in the United States who have mental illnesses such as "post-war phobia", because they are on the front-line battlefield, and they personally carry out and see the barbaric acts that violate the most fundamental precepts of the ** religion, which is a devastating blow to their own beliefs and the deepest denial of themselves. Therefore, after the Vietnam War, a large number of American veterans chose to commit suicide, and the Vietnam War completely changed the United States and greatly impacted Americans' belief in religion. However, the United States has obviously not stopped disobeying its own "Tao", and has increasingly turned its back on the source of its own strength, and has become a heresy of the religion with violence, deception, and oppression that God does not allow. Of course, this kind of violation of the "Tao" cannot have an immediate effect, after all, the human world is material, "of course, criticism cannot replace criticism, material power can only be destroyed by material force", but when material self-confidence is slowly broken, it is very different.
In light of reality, even the most unconfident people must admit that the once absolute world hegemon has begun to lose absolute deterrence, so much so that the United States has little to do with a Yemeni Houthi. In the face of changes in real power, the United States' betrayal of its own "Tao" began to show its might. So back to today's topic, why do we say that we are against China, we are against the West itself. The reason is that what we are insisting on now is precisely the "Tao" that we have inherited for thousands of years, that is, "love" and "benevolence", that is, "if you are poor, you will be good to yourself, and if you are good, you will help the world", that is, "the world is for the public", and it is the "community with a shared future for mankind" that we emphasize today. The core is:Mankind is one and the world is one familyThis kind of love for one's neighbor as oneself is very consistent with the lowest principle of ** religion, which is the most simple humanitarianism. However, our community with a shared future for mankind is not a religion that must change other countries, but on the basis of the five principles of peaceful coexistence, win-win cooperation between countries. Putting one's own interests first, but maintaining the greatest friendliness to the outside world, can temporarily sacrifice or cede some small interests for the greater interests of both sides, and will not oppress other countries and peoples for the sake of interests, let alone take the initiative to start wars. Such a China stands on the side of the "Tao" followed by all civilizations, and to oppose such a China is not to oppose itself? Therefore, we don't need to be distracted at all, we just need to go at our own pace, and if we oppose this, we will become more and more on the opposite side of most human beings, and eventually the opponents will be replaced by them, and a new relationship will be established. But it must be understood that the Tao is not something that can be obtained lying down.
