For those who make money from popularity and traffic, it is a good thing to make controversial statements. The more controversy there is, the more popularity and traffic it will bring, so that more profits can be squeezed out of it.
What attracts more attention are all kinds of weird comments that seem to be without brains, strange summaries, and even completely nonsense revelations, as well as rumors that can be seen through at a glance...
Why would someone be so outrageous?
It is normal to be outrageous. If it is not outrageous, who will care about you?
In order to attract more fans, you have to say more words; in order to attract more traffic, you have to say more exaggerated words.
In this process, there will be countless people who are too lazy to think and will worship such people as leaders and gods, following them and conquering the east and the west, until one day he is overthrown from the altar by his own believers because of his own words.
Without exception, no one will stop.
The feeling of being flattered and believed in is enough to intoxicate the most rational and sober people. The illusory sense of power will make people secrete hormones of happiness. The fulfilling experience of being the center of attention will make them run all the way under the influence of their desire to perform and sense of mission... until one day, they are overthrown, exposed and forgotten.
Therefore, the best way to deal with this kind of people is to ignore them and take it easy; and all your attention, comments, and reposts will only serve as motivation for others to continue talking nonsense.
The Nine Yang Manual says it well: "Let him be strong as he is, the breeze will blow across the hills; let him be arrogant as he is, the bright moon will shine on the river."
If you have ever had the opportunity to witness the prosperity and brilliance of society, and witness all that is prosperous and bright, who would not be heartbroken?
It's just a world where people eat each other.
When self-interest becomes the only criterion, when the position becomes the basis for judgment, when the tribe and society become cruel machines; when the law of the jungle becomes a matter of course, when the extravagant and powerful people plunder nutrients from the lower classes without restraint; when everyone has no choice but to become a screw, competing with ten or a hundred other screws for a position that seems to be more conspicuous and brighter...
People eat others and are eaten by others.
To be stronger, to be higher, to escape the gaping mouths of others, one must swallow other food first. Even if one struggles to the top of the food chain, one will only become one of the fat beasts. When one looks at other equals, one will become even more hungry and thirsty. Once one gets used to the pleasure of eating flesh and drinking blood, one can never go back. . .
This is the law of survival in the age of beasts.
