Overnight, everyone began to describe themselves as "faint". "Everything is faint" has become the best descriptor of young people's mental state, and has even evolved into a young person's life statement. Why are there so many "light people" all of a sudden? 
Overnight, was diagnosed as a pale person? If the "new species" in 2023 are "crazy people" and "crazy people", then the ones who will be born in 2024 will be "light people". Especially since the start of construction after the year, the "light people" group has become more and more growing, and more and more people have begun to pursue a "nothing light" lifestyle. 
"Light people", people are as their name suggests, whether it is social relationships, lifestyle, mental state, or love mentality, and tone of speech, ......It's all faint. They are like "Kapibala" who are not frightened everywhere, exuding a "sense of indifference of an old monk" and "a sense of relaxation that is about to die". 
After being officially diagnosed as a "light person", netizens' lives began to become calm. **Faint: dispensable, no innovation; Socially indifferent: solitude is already the norm; Life is light: two points and one line in the dormitory laboratory; Speak lightly: without any tonal fluctuations. 
The way of working is "light", working according to the mood, taking money by fate, more like a monk than going to work. Not taking the initiative, not being responsible, not refusing and not resigning, is the workplace philosophy of the indifferent people. Party A is not angry with you, you are not in a hurry for a colleague to be promoted, and you are called to the office by the boss to be scolded, and there is no wave in your heart, you only feel that he is noisy. I didn't want to work overtime, but in the face of the leader's overtime request, I just lightly agreed.

Don't enter a relationship unless necessary, for those you like, just take a peek at the Weibo homepage every once in a while. If you have to talk about it, then go through each day as if it were the day before it. doesn't quarrel and get angry, and doesn't break up easily, just like Ruyi in the later stage, there is no wave in her heart, and she doesn't have any expectations for her lover. 
Fyodor Dostoevsky wrote in Crime and Punishment: "Yes, you are like being dead and at the same time alive, killing two birds with one stone." This sentence can really be described as a "light" Bible. 
Why did so many "light people" appear overnight? 
How is "Danren" made? A closer look at the mental state of "light people" will find that most of them are not completely dead to the world, but their passion is little or difficult to sustain. This state is inseparable from the "class flavor" that was hotly discussed some time ago. The existence of "Banweier" will always make people shrouded in the shadow of work, and unconsciously continue the state and habits of work into life. As the boundaries between work and life gradually narrow, as presented in "Bouquet of Love", the time originally reserved for hobbies and aesthetics will be repeatedly compressed, and there is no time or mood to cultivate passion outside of work. 
However, compared with the "lying flat" and "pessimistic" a while ago, the state of "light" is relatively positive, at least it can be regarded as "sit-ups" in the predicament of life. Not too hard, not completely lying flat, the attitude of "light people" towards life perfectly shows the weak spiritual world of young people. 
Se Bastien Thibäult's "burnout" overload triggers a psychological circuit breaker mechanism, which is also one of the causes of "light people". Due to long-term mental stress, emotional exhaustion, and cognitive overload, people may experience mental fatigue, a state of lack of enthusiasm and motivation for life. When the "burnout" accumulates to a certain level, it will trigger the psychological circuit breaker protection mechanism: when the individual is under more stress than he can bear, in order to prevent further damage, the brain will automatically activate this mechanism, so that the person temporarily escapes the stressor and enters a state of "indifference". This state helps the individual to regain energy in the short term, but if it is in this state for a long time, it may become a "light person".
A long-term lack of control over life can also make people become "light". People feel hopeless and helpless when they feel like they are out of control of their lives and powerless to change the status quo. The calm of the "light people" is not calm, but passively accepts the arrangement of fate.
has become a "light person", also because he hopes to keep his energy and no longer have too much internal friction. The "light person" has chosen a more introverted lifestyle: less attention and investment in the outside world, more attention to the self, and the preservation of their own energy.
This approach is also a form of positive self-preservation: reduce unnecessary social activities and mental burdens, and focus more on your own needs and goals for more fulfillment and happiness.
Young people just want to maintain peace of mind? In fact, everyone can also perceive that the people who label themselves as "light people" are mainly young people. Compared with other age groups, young people are facing more twists and turns and changes at this stage. These challenges can arise from changes in the socio-economic environment, as well as from uncertainties in personal life and career development.
John Holcroft at school, the stressor is group work, yes, group meeting ......Faced with the choice of going to graduate school and entering the society, it is difficult to go ashore, and the job market is fiercely competitive......As a newcomer to the workplace, salary, colleague relationships, and work patterns ......All this has brought tremendous pressure to young people who have lived in relatively good conditions since childhood and have not experienced many winds and waves.
Se Bastien Thibault and today's "light learning" is actually a way for young people to cope with the pressure of reality. From involution to anti-involution, from consumption upgrade to consumption downgrade, from trying to rectify the workplace to self-deprecation as "Kong Yiji", from self-righteousness as the protagonist to accepting that he is just an ordinary NPC ......
After all the tossing and turning, realizing and accepting that something happens to everyone that does not transfer by their own will, the young man feels tired and "resigned to his fate" and just wants to maintain inner peace. The sense of peace represented by "light learning" is the freedom and relief that contemporary young people seek in the predicament of internal friction.
In contrast, middle-aged people generally can't do it so "lightly". Because they are old and young, their work is on the right track, or they are in the stage of being in full swing, and they can't be "light" if they want to, and they even need to "roll up in the middle of the year".
To a certain extent, "light learning" is also a kind of wisdom for young people to preserve themselves, and it is a kind of ability not to screw in internal friction on unworthy people and things. After some twists and turns, young people gradually begin to stop demanding recognition in other people's evaluation systems, and no longer insist on achievement and meaning in mainstream values.
However, in Xiaoyin's view, "light", like the previous "volume", "madness" and "madness", is destined to be just the mental state of young people in a short period of time. After the "light" passes, young people will become "thick" again, find enthusiasm in other aspects, understand themselves better, and understand the meaning of life better.
