Winning people's hearts: the importance and methods of gaining recognition from everyone

· The importance of gaining recognition from everyone

The key to management lies in gaining everyone's recognition, including management systems, plans, methods, and the manager themselves, all of which must be recognized by everyone and win people's hearts. This has many benefits:

1) Getting recognition can make management twice as efficient. By gaining everyone's recognition, they will be willing to conscientiously do a good job in all aspects, including areas without regulations or management requirements, and work wholeheartedly and without regrets. This is much easier and more effective than managing with various regulations and assessments. If a person is not recognized, even if they are tied to their job position, they will not work hard and will only slack off, do perfunctory work, and even if a person has a serious degree of disapproval and resentment, they will try to sabotage. This management is ineffective and there are still many things to be done.

2) Obtaining recognition is essential for the stable existence and long-term stability of management. The continued existence of a collective organization's management structure and management level depends on the recognition and support of everyone. For example, the establishment and survival of a state power depends on the recognition and support of the general public, which is the saying "whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world". Similarly, various collective organizations such as families, enterprises, and associations also require the recognition and support of the majority of members to establish and sustain. If everyone agrees, they will come together to support and maintain management. However, if they do not agree, they will resist, confront management, or disperse, resulting in ineffective management (no one pays attention to and executes it), chaos (mutual obstruction, sabotage, and destruction), collapse (talent and the people flee), and turmoil (armed struggle).

Therefore, gaining recognition and trust from everyone is the most important asset of a collective organization such as a family, enterprise, unit, or country. Only with recognition and trust between people can cooperation be possible, and only when a collective organization has the hearts and minds of the people and is recognized by everyone can it have cohesion and operate better. Otherwise, it will be unpopular, disliked, excluded, and resisted by everyone, and people's hearts will be scattered and disintegrated.

Management is the management and command of people's hearts, and the best way to command the hearts and minds of all members is to make everyone feel a high sense of identity. For example, for the government, the main goal is to give everyone a high sense of identification with the government itself and its various decisions, so that they will not neglect and are willing to cooperate in implementing various policies. This can achieve political harmony, harmonious relationships at all levels, and smooth and effective implementation of various government orders without facing resistance from those who openly comply with policies and have countermeasures.

If a family, enterprise, unit, or country is governed with a lot of resentment and loses the hearts of the people, it will soon lead to its downfall. King Wu of Zhou also conducted multiple reconnaissance and trials (including observing the troops of Mengjin), and only sent troops to attack the Shang Dynasty after confirming that the Shang Dynasty was completely divided and that everyone (including the lords and the people) did not recognize King Zhou, which also illustrates this truth.

· Methods to gain recognition and approval from everyone:

Through the following aspects, management institutions, leaders, and the systems and policies they introduce can be recognized by everyone:

1) Ensure the legitimacy and legitimacy of the birth and appointment of managers and management organizations, and gain acceptance from everyone.

Legitimacy and legitimacy are very important, and if not handled properly, it can easily lead to unstable factors, so it has always been widely valued. For example, it is best for a management organization to be established through a joint resolution of its members, and for leaders to be elected and elected, as this is more easily accepted by everyone. Even those who have gained power through special means will strive to handle this aspect well, such as attempting to gain power through military coups or replacing the previous regime through violent revolutions. They will use the reasons of pleading for the people, clearing the emperor's side, or using the act of hanging the people to punish them, doing justice for heaven, and eliminating harm for the people. After seizing power, they generally do not dare to directly announce their succession, but first take over temporarily, and then accept the throne through controllable means such as abdication, election, etc., or if it is inconvenient for them to come forward, they will let more legitimate people (such as the blood relatives or highly respected people of the previous legal authorities) act as puppets in front and do their own behind the scenes manipulation.

The management structure and leaders of a unit are generally elected through several methods: the company is usually managed and decided by shareholders or individuals designated by shareholders, the family clan is usually led by respected and virtuous individuals as the head of the parent clan, and associations, countries, and other organizations are generally elected and elected to form management structures and leaders (the wider the number of participants in the election, the more likely it is to improve legitimacy and recognition), Alternatively, those who inherit the throne according to established rules recognized by everyone (such as in ancient times, candidates were generally limited based on the father's death and son's succession, brother's brother's brother's brother's brother, and so on, and the specific person who inherited was often determined by the previous emperor's rule, or like most dynasties in China, in order to avoid confusion caused by competition for the throne among princes, the first born son's inheritance rule was adopted, even though sometimes the emperor did not like the first born son's inheritance and it was difficult for other children to inherit).

Due to the fact that elections and recommendations are important sources of legitimacy and legitimacy, everyone will strive to win in the election, and some people may even try to manipulate the election.

Inheritance is also one of the important sources of legitimacy and legitimacy, which includes both blood inheritance and theoretical inheritance. Therefore, rulers always strive to maintain the reputation of their predecessors, emphasizing that they inherit from previous rulers in order to indirectly improve their legitimacy. Throughout history, many uprisings and rebels have always liked to say that they are descendants of a certain emperor, just to gain acceptance from everyone through inheritance.

2) Made significant contributions to society, appreciated and recommended by everyone.

The legitimacy of management and rule also comes from the contribution of the collective to society. For example, Liu Bang led everyone to quell the chaos and save the people from hanging over, Zhu Yuanzhang organized a rebel army to eliminate the tyranny of the Mongol and Yuan dynasties, thus winning the hearts of the people and naturally gaining the throne as emperor. There is also a unit where those who make greater contributions are more likely to speak up and be elected as leaders.

If a person wants to obtain a great position, as long as they do good deeds and accumulate great merits, they will naturally receive what everyone expects,

While leading the team to conquer the world, it is also necessary to bring improvements in social management, economic benefits, and other aspects to everyone in order to become a leader more smoothly. Otherwise, one will only become a hero and gain temporary glory.

3) Has strong work ability, organizational skills, and charismatic personality.

Leaders' personal prophetic ability, planning ability, organizational coordination ability, propaganda and mobilization ability, work ability, and positive and high-end personality can all make them better recognized by everyone.

Some people intentionally shape and exaggerate their abilities and image in order to gain recognition from others through this aspect, even resorting to personality cult. In order to maintain their personal image, they constantly deceive others. Everyone should also be cautious to prevent being deceived and damaged.

4) Having both virtue and ability, maintaining a good value orientation and work performance, and gaining recognition and support from everyone.

This is the most important point, if it is not done well, no matter how well it is done, it is useless or cannot last long.

If the work effect is poor, or the work direction is wrong, and the actions are not recognized by everyone, or even considered to be retrogressive, the leader will be perceived by everyone as occupying a position of power that is unreasonable or even illegal, and will be resisted and resisted by everyone. Leaders who do not receive support from everyone are considered failures, and they are also dangerous and prone to retaliation and liquidation.

If the work is effective and always considers the collective, the country, everyone, and the people, that is, has good moral character, it will be recognized and supported by everyone. Virtue has always been highly valued in China. In the third year of Duke Xuan of Lu's reign, when the Zhou emperor sent Wang Sunman to comfort King Zhuang of Chu, who was stationed in Zhou territory, King Zhuang of Chu asked him about the size and weight of the nine tripods. Wang Sunman replied, "In virtue, not in the tripod." This made King Zhuang of Chu, who thought he could gain control of central power through force, realize that virtue was more important.

5) Establish a system that represents everyone's interests and form a community of shared interests with everyone.

The established system must represent the interests of everyone, and the decision-making must be reasonable and rational, ensuring that its implementation will benefit the collective and the public in a win-win situation.

And we need to form a chain of interests with everyone in order to mobilize their recognition and efforts, and form a powerful force. For example, companies with partnership system, shareholding system, and publicly listed (public shareholding system) can better integrate the efforts of the public and achieve better development.

It is also very important to achieve the principle of 'more work, more rewards' and clear rewards and punishments, in order to make everyone feel that it represents their interests more reasonably. Legalism attaches great importance to the construction of a system driven by interests, which can also be learned from.

6) Let everyone benefit and benefit from it.

Develop the economy and other aspects well, so that everyone can enjoy the fruits of development and gain higher recognition.

As the national economy continues to grow, companies often receive dividends, and if the dividends are relatively high, it will be easier to manage. Because providing everyone with adequate clothing, food, and security in all aspects of life, as well as development that can lead to wealth, will be more recognized by everyone. If the economy is in a mess, and many people experience a sharp decline in income, unemployment, bankruptcy, and are so poor that they can't even afford to eat, then the ruling party and leaders will definitely be hated by everyone.

7) Consider everyone's interests and feelings more, give more benefits, care more, and move everyone.

People's hearts rely on warmth rather than management. To influence everyone silently, we must put people first in all management, consider the interests and feelings of those being managed, care for everyone, take care of everyone in details, and make more concessions in the distribution of benefits and reputation. This will make it easier to warm people's hearts and gain everyone's recognition.

For example, during the Spring and Autumn period, the Tian family of Qi used small struggles to gain favor and win people's hearts. Empress Dowager Cixi was also very good at caring for and taking care of her subordinates, and often gave small favors and favors to them, which was also a way for her to gain more gratitude and support, and to better stand undefeated in power struggles.

8) Maintain neutrality and impartiality in work, achieve rationality, fairness, and openness, establish credibility, and make everyone recognize and trust.

The distribution of benefits should be reasonable, rewards and punishments should be clear, and the handling of things should be fair and impartial. If it involves multiple interests, it is necessary to fully consider and coordinate the interests of all parties, and not neglect or favor one over the other.

To have credibility, establish credibility, and make everyone feel recognized and reassured, one must follow the right path, uphold integrity, principles, and selflessness.

9) To comply with the will of the people, respond promptly to their voices, and promptly address and quell public grievances and anger.

We should broaden our horizons and listen to various opinions and feedback, so that various problems can be discovered in a timely manner, in order to make timely corrections and adjustments to ourselves and various policies.

We should always listen to everyone's voices and respond accordingly, especially when there are public grievances and anger that need to be resolved and calmed down in a timely manner. Accumulated grievances can lead to various problems, and only when everyone is satisfied can there be no grievances and work enthusiasm be high.

Actions should meet everyone's expectations, conform to people's hearts, conform to the will of heaven, and conform to the trend of world and historical development.

10) Using common goals and ideals to gain everyone's recognition, inspire everyone's will, and unite everyone's strength.

To achieve better development, it is necessary to establish common goals and gain everyone's recognition in order to form a consensus and work together.

So it is necessary to create goals, ideologies, and cultures that everyone recognizes and practice together, and thus gain a higher sense of identification from everyone.

To guide and educate the public to establish a good and similar value orientation, so that everyone can form a unified will as much as possible, and thus better unite everyone's strength.

Some activities and ceremonies can also be carried out by reference. For example, the swearing in ceremony and drumming in battle and Loong Boat competition can mobilize everyone's will and rally their strength.

11) Requesting everyone's support under the pretext of special circumstances, special periods, etc.

In situations where normal explanations cannot convince everyone, some leaders may demand that everyone obey without reason under special circumstances (such as special national conditions) or special periods (such as war or epidemic prevention), even resorting to creating turmoil, panic, establishing foreign enemies, and provoking wars to achieve this goal.

Although this method has some effectiveness, it cannot have a significant effect or last long, after all, the eyes of the masses are sharp and will not be deceived all the time.

12) Through the use of force, personal control, punishment, and intimidation, people are afraid to oppose and can only obey.

Rulers who have always been challenged do not look for problems within themselves, but instead double down on suppressing challengers and opponents.

But maintaining power and ruling through this method will only be short-term and cannot last long, because using power to deal with dissidents can only provoke more and greater anger, and everyone will find opportunities to resist and eventually be defeated by everyone.

A regime often becomes overly confident in its high-pressure policies, believing that it will inevitably defeat its opponents and continue to maintain its authoritarianism, thus refusing to give up its authoritarianism and save itself with democracy until death. As a result, they all tend to fail.

It must be understood that even water can carry a boat and capsize it. Once it offends public anger, even the most authoritarian person will lose power and have to step down, because power exists only when everyone recognizes or fears it. If people do not recognize it and do not fear it, that power will no longer exist.

Rather than tightly controlling the people through high-pressure politics, it is better to convince them and spontaneously support them, which is the long-term way to maintain rule.

Controlling the masses through force and educating the ignorant will ultimately be ineffective. The best way to gain public support is through good political achievements and behavior that always considers the needs of the people.

13) Getting everyone's acceptance through superstition

Since ancient times, people have often used the traditional concept of divine right of kings, combined with celestial phenomena, disasters, and even fabricated auspicious signs, prophecies, and nursery rhymes to gain public support and attack opponents.

(Excerpt: Contrary to Confucian expectations, the theory of ghosts and gods not only fails to balance the monarch's power, but also allows monarchs and ambitious individuals to find a legitimate reason for their unreasonable actions through divination. Therefore, the theory of divination and disaster is often influenced by power and can only be used as an excuse or assistance to promote some mature political changes.)

Strengthening legitimacy through proclaiming emperor, occupying the capital, and obtaining the national seal. To declare oneself emperor and claim to be orthodox in order to attract the hearts of the people, and occupying the capital can better demonstrate one's legitimacy. Even if one cannot occupy the capital, sometimes a new capital will be established. Obtaining the imperial seal can also enhance one's legitimacy (some companies may also compete for the official seal to strengthen their dominant position).

·Gathering the wisdom of the people: allowing and encouraging extensive participation and discussion in politics to gather wisdom, gather strength, and form supervision
The tradition of participating in politics and deliberation in China:
Since ancient times, China has had a tradition of gentry reporting various matters to local governments, as well as officials and even private scholars submitting letters to leaders, all of which are excellent forms of political participation and deliberation.
Confucianism advocates entering the world, requiring everyone to have a sense of social responsibility, to make achievements and cultivate virtue, to benefit the world and pursue selflessness. It also inspires countless people to participate in social management and contribute to social progress.
But after thousands of years of rulers exaggerating the Confucian emphasis on reasonable and appropriate superiority and inferiority as a sacred and unquestionable principle, as well as tightening and centralizing power that does not allow for the existence of civil rights, they have excluded everyone from power, and severely cracked down on those who dare to speak and advise as false opinions, which has scared everyone. Few people can and dare to get involved in public management anymore. They are all aware of their own safety, silent, and absolutely obedient. Even for various unreasonable management, they are only accustomed to accepting adversity, swallowing humiliation, and living a simple life. They even dare not and will not communicate with the government regularly or give opinions. In addition, the vigorous implementation of policies for the poor, the exhausted, and the ignorant has made people exhausted and unable to pay attention to public affairs in order to support their families, as well as lacking the ability and habit of independent thinking. As a result, most people have become indifferent and numb to public affairs. And some people who could have fought for the interests of the people are often easily bribed or coerced, such as Kang Youwei, who is suspected of being bribed during the bus petition activity and sacrificing public interests for personal fame. There are also many people who hold high positions in temples and become too afraid to speak up for the people due to concerns about personal interests and safety caused by corruption. This always leads to the inability of society to brainstorm and rely on the limited and error prone intelligence of a very small number of people to maintain development. Social development is slow, and those who make decisions above cannot understand the real situation below. Social problems are becoming more and more serious, and ultimately the entire society is in a state of dire straits and difficult to reverse, only to be destroyed, broken up and reorganized.

Countrymen attach great importance to keeping aloof from the world, but they have gone to extremes instead. They have not exerted any subjective initiative, and not only do they not strive for the collective interests of everyone, but even their own interests.
The Chinese tradition of 'not in one's position, not seeking one's job' is not conducive to active democratic participation. To achieve democracy, we must abandon this tradition and advocate for bold and active participation. Respect the functions and expertise of the incumbent, but provide advice and supervision

Some people who have caused harm to the country and the people for decades (such as Empress Dowager Cixi's more than 40 years in power and later decades of tyranny) will not be opposed and stopped. It's like none of them are men

Easterners tend to think that they can only do what the government says, unlike Westerners who like to communicate and discuss with the government. Therefore, the West will continue to improve and optimize, while China is always deteriorating
The tradition of political participation and deliberation in Western society is still worth learning from. Many people actively offer advice, criticism, and complaints, and society is gradually improving

It's like this abroad, everyone meddles in other people's affairs, and society gets better and better
The Chinese have nothing to do with themselves, are afraid of things, and then swallow humiliation, muddle along, and finally become tolerant to the traitors
Many times, standing up and saying that there is no danger, but most people are afraid of danger and believe that other safe and effective ways can be taken
Even many times, leaders are not bad, they just don't understand the actual situation and formulate policies that are not in line with reality. They also hope and like someone to give their opinions, but no one dares to do so
Few people consider issues from the perspective of the entire society
The Chinese people will not rise up to resist until the moment of life or death, and will not fight against the foreigners as unreasonable.
China is a society where everyone only accepts what comes their way, so society is deteriorating rather than improving

I admire the spirit of Westerners who are enthusiastic about political participation and have the courage to participate. They have also won a beautiful life and a democratic and free environment through this. These are in stark contrast to the numbness, fear, and misunderstanding of politics among the Chinese public.
The performance of political participation by Westerners is similar to Mr. Zheng Zhenduo's description in his article "Communication in the Mountains": "When they arrive at a place, if they cannot stand something, they will try to reform it. Whenever they suffer any grievances, they will loudly accuse them (regardless of whether these accusations are effective or not) of any obstacles or inconveniences to individuals or the public. They will write letters or personally go to question them. Everyone is so attentive and concerned about the happiness and power of individuals and the public. The parties involved naturally make small improvements every day to adapt to everyone's needs. As soon as everyone's vegetation is planted, they will naturally pay attention to the safety and happiness of individuals and the public. Intervening in various affairs is the only way to improve things better and prevent the infringement of personal and public rights, In addition, their concern for public welfare and their respective efforts (such as the superficial handling of donating public facilities by "this group of British and American nobles" mentioned in "Mountain Communication"), it can be seen that "we only envy their power, these blessings, and these powers, which are all obtained and created by themselves" (Zheng Zhenduo, "Mountain Communication")
And what about us? But generally, they are not interested in public affairs, and under long-term authoritarian oppression, their thoughts have become almost numb, and they are no longer sensitive to politics; Even if one's own rights are infringed upon, they still treat it passively. If they can tolerate it, they endure it. They are very afraid of authoritarian forces and regard them as evil spirits. They dare not compete with them and are willing to give up their rights and even kill everything. And even to the point of being politically persuasive: 'Is it useful to do that (such as accuse or argue)? It's impossible to have any results!' But have you tried it here? How can there be no effect without having died? Moreover, even if there is no direct effect, it will still have an impact and make more people dare to fight and join the struggle, which will make the parties involved more restrained and ultimately produce beneficial effects in the future. This is also worth doing. How can it be effective for the Chinese to treat political participation, personal rights struggle and improvement of social welfare undertakings with such a negative attitude? If we don't demand or create for ourselves, happiness and power will naturally not fall from the sky. "(Zheng Zhenduo," Mountain Communication ") Compared to Westerners," Have we ever paid so much attention to and cared about our own and the public's happiness? Please think about it, we are truly worthy of it! "(quoted from the same source)" We have become lazy to show off, and now it is necessary to do it! What we can do is good people, who can move forward together and do our best for the public, and those who can not block others for personal reasons are good people! "(quoted from Zheng Zhenduo's" Summer Club ")
There are many aspects of Chinese tradition that are very unfavorable to launch and carry out extensive political participation. It is necessary for us to analyze them here and put forward suggestions for improvement:
(1) Excessive emphasis on harmony and detachment from the world, but instead going to extremes, excessively neglecting struggle, not striving for collective interests that benefit everyone, and even not fighting for one's own legitimate interests. Even when the interests of the collective and individuals are damaged, they dare not stop and swallow their pride. As a result, everyone's subjective initiative is not fully utilized, and they cannot effectively promote social development, leading to political deterioration.
So we can no longer be too particular about harmony. When harmony is necessary, we should be harmonious. When struggle is necessary, we must persist in fighting to the end, so as to ensure the good development of society.
(2) I have never been good at timely, beneficial, and low-cost struggle, always tending to get by and unwilling to be a reformist who takes active actions to solve various bad things in a timely manner. In the end, I will inevitably reach a dead end and can only be a revolutionary who uses violence to change society. The gains are not worth the losses and have brought great damage to society. In the violent revolution, the inevitable result of the violent revolution has been born - a new authoritarian regime. The lack of talent for political participation, a gentle and effective way of struggle, is a manifestation of this lack of proficiency in struggle: there is always a lack of an active attitude towards politics, and there are too many concerns.
In order to change the vicious cycle of "authoritarian oppression violent revolution authoritarian oppression", we must advocate for timely and moderate struggles.
(3) Be self disciplined and dare not step forward. It is a tradition in China to not seek one's own position, but this is not conducive to social innovation and progress, nor is it conducive to active democratic participation.
To achieve democracy, we must abandon such traditions and advocate for bold and active participation, otherwise society will never make breakthroughs or progress.
(4) Indifferent to collective affairs, only pursuing personal life while ignoring the reality that only by working together to improve the collective can everyone's life be better, unwilling to participate in activities that improve the collective.
In fact, the quality of a collective is related to everyone. Only when the collective is good can we live well, so we need to pay more attention to and participate in collective affairs.
(5) Most people lack confidence in their ability to influence society. Most people believe that they are powerless to change the overall situation, and therefore dare not attempt to influence politics.
In fact, just like the issue of the effectiveness of political participation discussed above, as long as there is a struggle, anyone can influence society. As long as we persist in the struggle, we will inevitably achieve great results. Who says we are powerless to change the overall situation?
(6) Excessive fear, apathy, numbness, and even hatred towards politics. Due to their inability to engage in collective action and open struggle, many political activities have often been suppressed, leading to a fear of politics among the majority of people. Ultimately, the public is afraid to participate in collective affairs, let alone anything related to politics, and remains silent about politics. The long-term deception of rulers towards the masses has led to a lack of trust in politics and indifference towards political and collective affairs. The repeated disappointment of the people towards rulers has also made many people indifferent, numb, and even hate politics, ultimately losing their motivation to participate in politics.
In fact, in a modern and open society, political participation has become less and less dangerous. On the contrary, if you don't fight, it will become more and more dangerous - facing more oppression. The more politics disappoints us, the more we should participate in politics, because only in this way can we fight for our interests and not be disappointed.
(7) Intellectuals, as the backbone force driving social progress, have rarely taken the initiative in history and have always played the role of oppressed or helping rulers oppress others.

Of course, Chinese people also have positive aspects. For example, the concept of "joining the WTO" advocated by Confucianism is also an idea of active participation in society, but its allowed "participation in politics and deliberation" must be on the premise that it is conducive to safeguarding the interests of rulers. There is still a big gap from the modern political participation that advocates the pursuit of personal legitimate interests and independent thinking.

The lack of Chinese participation in politics and the consequent inability to prevent various social ills have become very serious, so it is not only necessary but also extremely urgent for us to launch a broad political participation.

The current situation of political participation in China:
Chinese people are used to being submissive, only complaining in private and cursing what they think is bad. They don't dare to discuss, give feedback and complain
Many people feel that they cannot change their environment and can only adapt to it by changing themselves, which is not right
Unreasonable things can greatly reduce efficiency and motivation. However, the Chinese people always accept and accept the mindset of resignation, and will not consider changes and reforms. This is very bad, resulting in many unreasonable things not being corrected. Everyone is busy and tired because of unreasonable regulations and practices. For example, the procurement bidding practices of public institutions increase costs without avoiding corruption, which has caused great harm to everyone but has not been corrected.
Now they are all scared instead
Chinese people are afraid to say things openly, but always talk behind their backs. It doesn't help
The Chinese people also generally lack a sense of citizenship. If everyone has a sense of citizenship, society will continue to purify, rather than deteriorating as it is now
Having civic awareness, everyone has a sense of social responsibility to influence others and prevent negative phenomena
The government made a mistake, but no one dared to speak up and express their opinions

The Chinese people have a serious fear of officials. They are afraid of being punished. They dare not say anything. For example, when I put forward suggestions to the leaders, my family attacked and blocked me

The obligation and initiative of participating in politics and deliberation:
As intellectuals, we should have a greater sense of social responsibility and invest less consideration for our own interests in promoting social development.
Everyone should also have a sense of social responsibility and participate in politics more often
Social participation: Only by actively joining the world can one achieve greater merit and jointly participate in promoting social development
Knowing the rights and obligations of citizens, fully utilizing and fulfilling them, can promote social development or at least prevent social regression
We must all remain clear headed, have independent thinking ability, be able to distinguish right from wrong, and use various means including speaking out to form public opinion, forcing bad bureaucrats who harm the country and the people to change their thinking or delegate power and resign
The Chinese people must get rid of the old habit of being obstinate. If there are problems, they should give timely and bold feedback
Chinese people must get rid of the old habit of being obsequious and abusive in private, and should give timely and bold feedback on problems and irrationality
More than a thousand farmers from Dongming County collectively went to Beijing to report to the emperor and cause trouble in front of Wang Anshi's residence. Zheng Xia risked his life to remonstrate, but we have not received any feedback yet. If everyone speaks out what they think is wrong, the higher authorities will definitely be under pressure to adjust their actions
I hope everyone can give full play to their sense of ownership, participate in social construction, provide more feedback on problems, and speak out more about bad things
Launch activities to provide suggestions and rationalization proposals
Mobilize everyone to provide feedback on the issue together, so that the parties involved can feel the problem and opposition force and take it seriously
I hope everyone can demonstrate their sense of ownership and participate more in social construction, give more feedback on problems and speak out more about bad things. Constructive suggestions are beneficial to everyone and will not be opposed just because they are proposed. Moreover, there are many media and channels to express opinions and suggestions, which are not difficult.
Everyone should have the idea of changing unreasonable things, instead of just accepting things passively
Not all of them are men
The progress of society requires everyone to promote it. If we do not vigorously oppose bad behavior, not only will society not progress, but it will also become increasingly degraded.
Advocate reflecting one's own efforts: citizen political participation. Ancient ministers adhered to morality, etiquette, and principles, risking their lives to remonstrate and protest (see Yang Shen's "Zuo Shun Men Case" for example), and obstructed the emperor
We call on everyone to provide more feedback and complaints, not just complain, including many high-ranking officials who are not good at providing feedback. This is an unqualified citizen.
To cultivate everyone's ability to become citizens.
Please strive to be new citizens: not blindly obeying, actively participating, safeguarding rights and interests, daring to struggle, independent thinking, civilized living, rational behavior and work
Advocate everyone to rise up and fight for their own interests, so as to maintain social balance and reasonable distribution of interests.
That is to say, winning the hearts of the people not only requires ideological support but also action support

Call on everyone to change the destiny of the country, which can be changed just like the fate of a person. By doing good deeds, accumulating virtue, and exerting efforts to urge improvement, as a means of advocacy
Only by actively participating in and discussing politics can we change the country's destiny
The consistent silence of everyone has led to the current situation
Organize activities: online discussions; Major square holiday gatherings;
Collect ways to protect rights and corresponding department contact information for everyone, encourage and help others
Mobilize extensive participation and discussion in politics, including participating in elections, offering suggestions, and filing complaints
Propose reform plans and find ways to communicate them to relevant departments to promote their implementation

Mobilize extensive political and social management participation, and encourage everyone to speak out, make suggestions, and file complaints
I hope everyone can demonstrate their sense of ownership and participate more in social construction, give more feedback on problems and speak out more about bad things. Constructive suggestions are beneficial to everyone and will not be hostile just because they are proposed. Use suggestions, dialogues, and reminders instead of criticism, confrontation, rumors, and satire.

Many people think that living a good life and doing a good job in their own business are enough, and that politics has nothing to do with them. However, they do not understand that poor politics and leaders can have a significant impact on everyone

We should reflect on ourselves. We can no longer just complain about dissatisfaction with various aspects of life and society without making efforts to improve them. We can no longer just complain without taking practical actions to achieve our own interests, opinions, and ideas. Happiness not only does not fall from the sky, but there is also no need to rely on rulers, because reducing their deprivation of others' interests is not beneficial to them. They will not do it, and relying on their occasional little conscience is too rare and unreliable. The only way is to rely on oneself to fight for it. Whoever tries to fight for it will get it, and whoever doesn't fight for it won't get it. So, here we must vigorously promote political participation and encourage citizens to actively participate in politics and discussions.
Firstly, it is necessary for us to engage in political participation. Because political participation can intervene and promote the resolution of various problems, improve our lives, enable the public to jointly manage society, achieve a balance of political power, make our society more democratic, enable civil servants to be subject to public supervision to prevent corruption, prevent a few people from governing the country emotionally, and enable people to brainstorm and make full use of their talents instead of relying solely on the wisdom of a few people to govern the country, thus making our economic and social development faster. Through the integration of opinions, we can make society more republican and stable. And what would happen if none of us actively participated in the activities and did not participate in political discussions? The result is that the problems that hinder society, economy, and our personal happiness cannot be solved and are becoming increasingly serious. The lives of the masses and public facilities cannot be improved. A small number of scoundrels and political opportunists take advantage of the fact that the masses are indifferent to politics and do not intervene in politics, and easily seize power and use the name of the state and organizations to do whatever they want, gradually promoting authoritarian rule (rulers throughout history have actively intervened and influenced politics while hoping or even not allowing the masses to participate in any political activities, demanding that the people "do not talk about the country"). At the same time, a society where most people do not participate and only a small number of people participate in politics is not a healthy and stable society, especially among a few political participants. When divided into several forces, Not only will it lead to authoritarianism, but it is also prone to chaos and war over power. From the above, it can be seen how important broad political participation is to us. We actively participate in politics and discussions in different places.
Secondly, we have political participation and rights. The country is jointly owned by every citizen, and society is composed of each and every one of us, so we all have a share. The government is just an institution entrusted by the people to handle daily public affairs for the collective, and the government staff are only employees of the people. Therefore, each and every one of us is the master of the country, society, government, and government personnel. Of course, we have the right to participate in politics and exert our personal opinions to influence them. In this regard, we advocate for a true sense of ownership of the right to travel (this sense of ownership is different from the previous emphasis on fulfilling obligations and being willing to dedicate oneself, but rather a spirit of freedom and ownership of the right to travel).
Once again, we have an obligation to engage in political participation. We must take responsibility for ourselves and the public, otherwise it is still one thing for our own rights to be infringed, but we must bear a certain degree of responsibility for the impact on the collective public interest caused by our lack of participation (such as being held accountable for not participating). So, in order to safeguard our own rights and responsibilities to the collective, we must actively engage in political participation.
Finally, China's national conditions are suitable for citizens to participate in extensive political participation and deliberation. From the above, it can be seen that we have the necessity, right, and obligation to participate in politics. However, some people may argue that China's national conditions are not suitable for widespread political participation by citizens, which would cause chaos and affect normal production. But this statement is wrong. Political participation is definitely not for everyone to cause trouble without reason, why would it lead to chaos? Even if irrational behavior may occur during participation, we can use the rule of law to prevent and stop it. But temporarily affecting production can lead to improvements in the production environment and long-term promotion of production. Why not?
Our top priority is to correct our understanding and mentality of political participation, and vigorously promote citizens' extensive and proactive political participation. We should cultivate the awareness and habits of participating in politics and deliberation, and eliminate all obstacles that hinder political participation. In this way, with the extensive political participation of citizens, our quality of life is increasingly improved, and society and economy are better developed. Especially now that we are facing corruption and various drawbacks in the government and society, each and every one of us should think about how to change it, and stop just complaining behind our backs. We should know that the best way to solve these problems is political participation, which means using our power to influence and change it, and thus forming democracy and supervision.

It should be emphasized that this right is also equal, and our responsibility to participate in politics is quite significant.
Politics is related to the interests of everyone, so everyone has the right to influence social decision-making and participate in politics. Political participation is not just the right of individuals, nor is it exclusive to the upper class. Moreover, this right is inherently equal. Don't think that you don't have the right to participate in politics, and don't feel like many people do not have the qualifications to participate in politics due to low culture and status.
And we have the responsibility to reform this society and fight against evil forces. If each of us does not take action, society will gradually decline and the masses will suffer more and more. At that time, we will not be able to face such a reality! Living in society as a whole, each and every one of us should have a sense of social responsibility and actively take on the responsibility of promoting social progress rather than worsening it.

The necessity and benefits of participating in politics and deliberation:
That is to say, the benefits to society and the parties involved:
The parties involved often do not know the situation or the authorities are confused, so feedback is important. No one dares to risk the world's reputation, but often they do not know that they are risking the world's reputation
Whether a society continues to optimize and purify or deteriorate depends on the cognition and actions of all its citizens. If they are indifferent to the interests of public affairs, do not participate in discussions and suggestions, do not promote the correction of existing problems, and do not accommodate unruly people, then society will inevitably continue to deteriorate. However, if everyone can unite to defend justice and form a collective force, anyone will be afraid and dare not act recklessly
Accepting adversity and not being able to provide feedback has led to personal grievances, harm to society, and harm to leaders. If there is timely feedback to let leaders know that there are problems with decision-making, no leader is willing to make mistakes
Participating in politics and deliberation can draw on collective wisdom, which is much better than just individual decision-making. Of course, what Zeng Guofan said about "planning can be few but not many" was in emergency situations such as war
The active, timely, and constructive participation and discussion of politics by the public promotes the improvement of society
Evil cannot be defeated by righteousness, but righteousness can still be defeated without effort, so political participation and promotion are necessary
Not all rulers are malicious. Many policies have good intentions, but they are divorced from reality, resulting in no feedback and only cursing behind the scenes
Discussing decisions with multiple people can better avoid mistakes and omissions
The 'two vote system' is an obviously wrong policy. Why do we rarely hear opposition voices, only see everyone discussing countermeasures, and everyone just accepts it passively

Why do we advocate for broad political participation among citizens? Is political participation necessary and beneficial? The answer is very affirmative. I have already discussed the necessity and benefits of political participation in my article "Vigorously Advocating Citizens' Political Participation", including the ability to intervene and promote the resolution of various problems, prevent authoritarianism and corruption, strengthen supervision and promote democracy, brainstorm, and so on. Below, I will further analyze the relationship between political participation and the overall interests of society and individuals.

The benefits of broad political participation by citizens to society:

The extensive political participation of citizens has many benefits for society:
(1) Beneficial for preventing the formation of authoritarianism. Political participation can enable the public to fight against the illegal behavior of politicians. Everyone actively cares about and participates in politics, dares to fight against illegal behavior, and those who seek power and ambition cannot do whatever they want. Without resistance and struggle against illegal behavior, authoritarianism will be easily formed. A country where citizens do not care about politics is bound to experience authoritarianism. It can be seen that in order to prevent the emergence of authoritarianism, we need to actively participate in politics for a while and constantly resist all behaviors that violate the interests of the people.
(2) Beneficial for achieving and maintaining democracy. Democracy is the result of struggles among various forces, and the first step to achieving democracy is to gather strong forces that support democracy. Without broad support, the forces of democracy cannot win, and democracy cannot be fully realized. To form a broad force of support for democracy in society, it is necessary to achieve widespread citizen participation in politics. If everyone does not participate and democracy does not receive support, how can it be achieved? Just like how the masses are not actively participating in politics and are not good at unity and struggle, which has led to the lack of gathering and significant formation of the democratic forces among the masses. Therefore, democracy has been delayed, and many democratic revolutionary movements in history have failed or the elements of democratic pursuit have been tampered with due to the minimal participation and indifference of the masses (including the Xinhai Revolution, the New Democratic Revolution, etc.). So we can only form a huge force pursuing democracy through our own actions and extensive political participation to force rulers to abandon authoritarian rule and implement democratic politics such as elections. The maintenance of democracy also relies on the broad and long-term support of the people, otherwise it may be shattered at any time.
(3) Beneficial for achieving the common interests of the people. The demands of the people can only be fulfilled by the people themselves. It is impossible and unreliable to rely on anyone else. It is unrealistic to hope that rulers who are inherently selfish and have a great conflict with the interests of the people can actively and consciously satisfy the people. It is also unrealistic to rely on external forces for hope. Most external forces do not have such good conscience. They come to China mostly to obtain more benefits. As long as they can obtain more benefits, they will still do so by oppressing the people. There have been few social problems in history that have not been solved by the people's drive. Cruel rulers always fall under the uprising of the people and cannot withdraw from the political stage on their own. Corrupt officials are often arrested only when people's voices are high. Heavy grievances cannot be raised and resolved without people's desperate appeals. Therefore, the pursuit of our interests and the forward development of society can only be achieved by ourselves. Everything will not fall from the sky, but rely on our efforts to fight and resist. Therefore, we advocate active participation of individuals in the collective, that is, active, active, and extensive participation in politics and deliberation.
(4) Conducive to making good decisions that benefit the majority of people. A decision is formed under the influence of various forces, so the broad political and decision-making participation of citizens can dilute the influence of reactionary forces on the decision, thus facilitating the formation of good and beneficial decisions for the majority of people. And participatory democracy is also a beneficial supplement to representative democracy, and is even increasingly tending to replace it, because it can better avoid government decisions being biased towards a certain group of people without considering the interests of the masses and all classes.

(5) Conducive to the formation of a good and clear political system. Firstly, broad political participation by citizens is beneficial for enabling virtuous individuals and political forces representing the interests of the people to receive sufficient support and influence politics. However, if everyone does not participate in politics, talented individuals who work for the welfare of the people will be unable to work and be excluded due to insufficient support, and even if elections are held, they will not be selected. Similarly, without the support of the people in addition to ideological and verbal actions, political forces representing the interests of the people cannot win in political struggles (the so-called "world of those who win the hearts of the people" must also be based on the premise that the people express their hearts through actions to be correct). As a result, politics is only controlled by some scoundrels and reactionary forces, just as we often think. Those officials and politicians are few and far between good, There are reasons caused by the system, as well as reasons why virtuous people have not received our support and cannot have an impact. In reality, kind people are often very honest and responsible, while those with malicious intentions are mostly vicious, possessive, and strive to control society. As a result, this society only reflects the intentions of reactionary forces everywhere, and may not necessarily be manifested by the intentions of justice. In the end, it is not surprising that traitors are in power? So we need everyone, especially kind and just people, to participate in politics and influence society, so that the power of justice can prevail in society. Only then can society become a civilized and good society; Secondly, everyone's participation in politics can form a strong social supervision, thereby avoiding corruption; Once again, extensive political participation by citizens can make them mature in politics and not easily incited or exploited. Instead, they can calmly and comprehensively look at problems, thereby avoiding political chaos, reducing political turmoil, and promoting normal social and political development.
(6) Beneficial for the rational distribution of interests and maintaining social balance. If everyone does not strive for their own interests through political participation, and advocates for everyone to participate in politics and fight for their own interests, then politics can reflect the interests of everyone, so that interests can be reasonably distributed and society will not lose balance due to excessive and unreasonable distribution of interests.
(7) Beneficial for preventing the occurrence of violent revolutions. On the one hand, everyone participates in politics and various demands are expressed and resolved, which helps to ease social conflicts and reduce the likelihood of violent revolutions. On the other hand, participating in politics and discussions can cultivate rational concepts and the habit of resolving problems and contradictions through democratic means, thus preventing violent revolutions. We advocate democratic participation to prevent and replace violent revolutions, and mobilizing citizens to participate widely is the best way.

The direct benefits of political participation for everyone:
Firstly, the decisive influence of politics on everyone determines that we must promote social and political clarity through extensive political participation. Politics is not only related to the development of the entire society, but also to the vital interests of every individual. People always think that politics has little to do with themselves, but this is very wrong. In fact, politics should be the most related to people's lives and have the greatest impact on them. As the ancients lamented, "It is better to be a peaceful dog than a chaotic citizen." It can be seen that the quality of social politics will determine the degree of your life: if politics is good, even dogs can live a good life; Politics is not good, and people cannot live a good life either! Comparing democratic and liberal developed countries with authoritarian and extreme countries, people's lives in these different countries are truly vastly different. The most obvious difference is that South Korea and North Korea, two countries with similar foundations and cultures, have vastly different people's lives! So we should say: politics is related to everyone's life and death! Because politics is so closely related to the vital interests of each of us and has such a great impact on us, we must never avoid politics, let alone treat it as someone else's business. Instead, we must face it squarely. As discussed in the previous section, the broad political participation of citizens is conducive to the formation of a democratic and transparent politics. Therefore, we need to actively and widely participate in politics, promote political improvement, and benefit our own survival and development.
Secondly, personal interests can only rely on oneself. You must strive for them in order to obtain benefits, and no one will give benefits to you in vain. Therefore, we must actively participate in politics to strive for benefits and achieve social development in a direction that is beneficial to ourselves. On the one hand, personal interests and destiny can only be fought for by oneself. What is beneficial to you will never fall from the sky, and there will never be anyone who selflessly considers and seeks benefits for you, especially in situations where productivity is underdeveloped and society's material resources cannot meet everyone's needs. People are selfish, and it is normal for everyone to consider their own interests. Everyone is primarily concerned with their own interests, so we can only fight for our own interests by relying on ourselves. It is unrealistic and impossible to dream of who will come to give you benefits and who politicians will come to rescue us, including politicians. Most other people mainly start from their own interests. On the other hand, without actively intervening and promoting something, it is impossible for it to develop in a direction that is beneficial to you. For example, if on a train, most people feel that the air conditioning is turned on too big and too cold, but only one person feels that it is not turned on enough and not cool enough. Later, this person actively requests the train attendant to turn on the air conditioning cooler, but most people do not explain their ideas to the attendant or ask the attendant to adjust the air conditioning warmer. As a result, the attendant thinks that the air conditioning is not turned on cold enough, so they turn on the air conditioning cooler. Another reason is that farmers have been treated unfairly but have not changed. Even the phenomenon of unfair treatment is becoming increasingly serious, If unfair groups (such as farmers) or individuals make a fuss, they will definitely reap rewards. In short, in order to gain benefits and develop towards a direction that is beneficial to oneself in society, you must actively and proactively participate. To control your own destiny, you must participate more in collective affairs, including participating in politics.
Again, actively participating in politics and deliberation is also beneficial for individuals' development in society. For example, daring to participate and not being timid often leads to better development in a collective, and Qianlima needs to highlight its strengths through positive performance in order to be discovered by Bole faster.
The impact of political participation on society and individuals is the same as the two principles in physics. The law of inertia (Newton's first law): Without the action of force, the motion state of an object will not change. Similarly, without everyone's efforts to push forward, everything will not change, and the entire society cannot progress automatically. We should not think that we don't need to worry about everything, nor should we think that time will solve problems. In fact, without anyone pushing forward, nothing will develop or even regress. It's like if our ancestors hadn't continuously developed natural and social sciences, then we might still be primitive societies today - just like Native American societies. The principle of force synthesis: forces acting in multiple directions and of different sizes on an object are synthesized into a resultant force on the object, and the motion state of the object is determined by this resultant force. Similarly, if we do not exert force on things or exert a relatively small force, while others exert external force, the "resultant force" will definitely be biased towards the force exerted by others, and the motion state of the object will be more influenced by others. Especially in the development of human society, reactionary forces have also formed a backward force, making our development and sailing against the current the same, without being pushed, we will actually regress.
The widespread political participation of citizens is so beneficial and necessary, and it is increasingly becoming a trend and an important way to promote social development globally. However, China has long lacked extensive political participation, which can be said to be one of the important reasons for the serious political corruption and feudal remnants in China today, and the delay in entering a modern democratic society.
The lack of public participation in politics can be seen in the degree of public participation in various historical events. Many of our historical events are often initiated by a small number of people, and many tasks are only the responsibility of one or two people. For example, the reform and opening up was only initiated by a few people such as Deng Xiaoping, and the public did not play a significant role in promoting it. This fully reflects the incompetence of our people and their lack of participation and promotion in the country! This serious lack of political participation can only lead to continuous social regression rather than progress, and also result in entrusting the fate of the whole country and individuals to one or two people, which is ultimately extremely dangerous! People! You are too incompetent!

The harm of not actively engaging in political participation:
The Chinese are too slow to feed back problems. Many people died of starvation after three years of famine, and no one reached the Central Committee. The last Hunan woman went to Zhongnanhai to petition and scold Mao Zedong. Only then did she pay attention to finding problems
Not expressing one's demands can lead to an increasingly distorted society, so we should encourage everyone to express their demands
The governance of rural areas is defeated by the villagers' reluctance to act and the chaos of a few people. Cadres sell land and give some benefits to a few village bullies, so that no one causes trouble. The same goes for the country
It can't be casually calculated. Last time a friend came to Guangzhou and got scammed by a taxi for over a hundred yuan. I told him I wanted to file a complaint, but he said it would be fine for just over a hundred yuan. However, I insisted on filing a complaint, and in the end, the driver was fired. If he didn't file a complaint, he would continue to harm others. After filing a complaint, he restrained himself and warned the people around him. Therefore, it's not a matter of over a hundred yuan, but a matter that concerns the entire society
The Chinese people lack the awareness of striving for their own rights and interests. In the face of all kinds of unfairness, no one strives for change, or even becomes numb. This can only allow those who have gained interests to move forward
Faced with the initial bad politics of the Soviet Union, failure to persist in eliminating it resulted in a great disaster and a crime

It can only deteriorate to the point of collapse in one day, starting over from scratch, which is a bad thing for both the country and individuals
Always walking to irreconcilable and burning jade and stone together
Grassroots governance is very chaotic, without supervision, and people's affairs are not directly related to themselves or concerned, and are not greatly affected and will not provide feedback
National investment has been falsely attributed to a few people's waists

Timeliness and normalization of political participation and deliberation:
Participating in politics and deliberation should be done well in ordinary times, and we cannot wait for the situation to become critical and urgent before saving the country's survival
We don't want to wait until we starve to death to reform society, but our timidity and reluctance to fight are causing us more harm; We don't want to wait until we are completely controlled by reactionary forces to resist, but now our numbness has led to our political power falling more and more to a small group of people. Powerful people are increasingly controlling society and the people, while the general public has no opportunity to participate in politics; We don't want to wait until we completely lose our freedom to fight for it again, but now our freedom of speech and personal freedom are greatly constrained, and we are in a state of extreme lack of freedom, with no hope of gaining freedom in the future. However, many people have forgotten the phrase 'no freedom, no death' and do not want to resist in any way; We don't want to wait until society collapses to reform politics, but now we are watching society become increasingly corrupt and everyone dares to come out and fight. Chinese people! We need to rise up early to resist, and we must make every effort to safeguard our legitimate interests and promote the progress of our society, rather than heading towards collapse!

We strongly hope to change the bad situation, we need a better life! Let's take action! Let's use political participation together to destroy all evil forces and unreasonable realities! Let's use our actions together to create a better tomorrow for us all! Let the broad political participation of citizens lead China towards democracy and promote social progress!

The harmlessness of political participation eliminates concerns about participating in politics and deliberation
Constructive suggestions are beneficial to everyone and will not be hostile just because they are put forward, and there are many media and channels to express opinions and make suggestions, which is not difficult
Positive and constructive suggestions are beneficial and welcomed by all parties, and will not be hostile just because they are proposed
And the government actually has limited access to information, so it hopes that everyone can provide more feedback and will not reject it
This is to help them carry out their work better, correct their work achievements, rather than making them difficult and risky to make mistakes
When I was in school and after I started working, I always liked to give advice to teachers and leaders. My family thought it was hard to say that it was offending someone, but in fact, it was not like that. When I gave advice, the teachers didn't get angry but liked it very much
Don't worry, pointing it out will offend people. It's recommended not to offend people
Don't worry about giving advice but getting retaliated against. I believe many people are not really bad, they just have misconceptions. I also believe that most people can communicate as long as they are sincere and consider from their perspective
This is normal behavior and not dangerous
Policy makers and superiors need feedback from everyone and enjoy it
Political participation is so necessary, but some people use various excuses to obstruct it and accuse it of being harmful. The most common argument is: "If everyone comes to participate in politics for a while, then the whole society will be in chaos." Therefore, we need to refute this viewpoint here and emphasize that political participation has benefits but no harm.

Firstly, political participation is not about riots or revolutions. It requires everyone to participate in politics, but also requires the use of democratic methods, adherence to democratic procedures and order, and is carried out under the premise of norms, so it will not cause much chaos.
Secondly, most people are still rational, and there are few who make trouble without reason. Therefore, the results of everyone's participation will not show chaos, and only by everyone's participation can we better prevent unreasonable people and prevent chaos.
Finally, even if there is a certain degree of chaos, it is temporary. Political participation inevitably leads to changes in interest relationships, coupled with the outbreak of some long-term suppressed interest demands. Even if there is a legal system to regulate the competition for interests among all parties, it is still impossible to fully regulate it. Therefore, there is still a certain degree of chaos. But these confusions are not only minor, but also temporary. As long as the power of democracy exceeds that of reactionary forces and various conflicting interests are resolved legitimately, the chaos will soon come to an end. Moreover, the conflicts, chaos, and bloodshed caused by the struggle for democracy are better than stability under dictatorship, because it can exchange temporary pain for a better long-term life in the future. Unlike long-term oppression and inhumane living without struggle, where conflicts lead to democracy, and calm is often the breeding ground for dictatorship. Therefore, we advocate participation and face up to conflicts rather than avoiding them for stability and calmness.

The effectiveness of political participation:
The effectiveness of political participation. Some people often think that political participation will not have any effect, but we not only need to ask: Have you tried it? How do you know there's no effect without trying? For many people, their conclusions are based on speculation or from others' mouths! Moreover, political participation, like anything else, is bound to have certain difficulties and cannot easily achieve results. It requires a long-term struggle process, and only by persisting in bold and active participation can we ultimately achieve our goals. Even if there is no obvious effect at the beginning, we can definitely achieve significant results in the long run. Another thing is that the impact of each and every one of us' participation may be small, but if everyone participates, the combined effect will be significant.
Political participation is necessary, beneficial, and harmless, and it is still something we should do. However, some people may say that political participation is difficult to be effective, so our participation is equivalent to participating in vain. In fact, this viewpoint is extremely superficial. Now let's talk about the effectiveness of political participation.
Firstly, many political campaigns may appear to have failed, but they have had positive effects, so they cannot be completely ineffective. And it is precisely in this way that everyone pushes a little bit, and the result of many people's participation in politics can converge to make things change greatly. Every time we move forward a little bit, over time we will achieve our goals. As the saying goes, 'you reap what you sow.' Political participation is not free of charge. As long as there is participation, there will be some effects and rewards. Moreover, everything cannot be smooth sailing, and we must be tolerant of temporary failures.
Secondly, as long as there is broad participation and a willingness to persist, there will definitely be significant results. With broad participation and everyone contributing a little bit, a large number of people will form a tremendous force, and any resistance to reform will be overcome. This can be explained by the theorem of physical objects overcoming friction (resistance) in motion: when a force acting on an object is less than its static friction, it cannot change the object's static state. However, if multiple forces act on the object in the same direction, but their combined force is greater than the object's static friction, the object will overcome the frictional force and begin to move. During the process of movement, the frictional force changes from a larger static friction force to a smaller sliding friction force, allowing the object to continue moving without the same force as before. Similarly, it is difficult for one or two of us to drive the development of something, but if we unite, everyone only needs to contribute a little bit of effort to drive the development of things. And once things start to be pushed, it will be easier to do more work in the future. Therefore, we should not be afraid of difficulties or not being able to drive the development of things. Instead, we should unite more people and strength together with greater efforts to promote the development of things. As long as we work together with one heart, we will eventually achieve great results. At the same time, persistence is victory, and political participation is also free of charge. As long as we persist in struggle and keep striving, things will inevitably get better day by day.
Finally, striving may not necessarily have an effect, but without striving, it is absolutely impossible to have an effect. Even if one is passive and lacks ambition, afraid to take action, then things will not only not improve, but will also become worse and worse. So even if the likelihood of effectiveness is not high, it is still necessary for us to participate, especially in the process where the benefits do not outweigh the losses.

As long as there is participation, it will be effective. As long as we mobilize extensive participation and persist, we can definitely achieve great results. Participation is more effective than not participating. Therefore, we should not think that our participation is useless. We must believe that participating in politics will be effective and participate as much as possible. Everyone uses their own strength to promote social progress, even a small change in knowledge, ultimately promoting social development. Let's enjoy the joy of changing reality through active participation!

Examples of political participation:
Overnight, residents in hundreds of communities in Beijing, including the three largest communities in Asia - Huilongguan, Tiantongyuan, and Wangjing - spontaneously organized to protect their rights in almost identical ways. They directly called the police, confronted and negotiated with the neighborhood committees under the watchful eye of the police, and finally removed the iron sheets to lift the lockdown. Because Beijing has not issued any lockdown notices, all lockdown measures in Beijing communities are carried out by the neighborhood committees, who do not have law enforcement power. Restricting citizens' travel is considered illegal detention in legal terms!
A thousand villagers went to Beijing to persuade Wang Anshi, and Zheng Xia advised Wang Anshi
Hunan girl petitions Zhongnanhai to report that many people have starved to death

Confidence in political participation:
Although political participation is inevitably effective, many people still lack sufficient confidence to participate, always seeing things as difficult, enemies as powerful, and always afraid of failure. But in fact, it's not like that. From many aspects of analysis, we can gain confidence in participation:
Firstly, the resistance we face is not significant, and the reactionary forces are not as powerful as we imagine. People always think that the resistance to changing society is very great, and the authoritarian forces are terrifying. No matter how hard you try, you cannot change the current situation. But have you ever thought that the resistance is only caused by a few people! Resistance is generated by humans, so what reason do we have to say that we cannot generate a thrust greater than resistance through humans? And isn't the reactionary force that strong? They just took advantage of our fear and took advantage of our failure to stop them to form a seemingly powerful dictatorship. With so many of us in the public, there are only a few reactionary political organizations, and their resources are far less than what we all have. Do we still need to be afraid that we won't be able to defeat them? As long as we all have one heart and fight against them more, they will inevitably be vulnerable, just as Mao Zedong once said, 'All reactionaries are just paper tigers!'.
Secondly, we should not only see examples of failed participation in politics, but also examples of successful participation and the benefits it brings. The disadvantage of Chinese people is that they are too worried about previous failures. This is also true in political participation. They always see only the failure or ineffectiveness of previous participation, but not the success and benefits of participation. In fact, there are many examples of the latter type in life. We should learn from these examples to gain more confidence from these success stories.
Again, some things are not difficult to do, it's just a matter of whether or not to do them. Some people always feel that it is difficult to change something or the current situation, and this mentality is very harmful to political participation. Actually, if you carefully analyze why some people can succeed in political activities and other aspects, it's just because they dare to do it and do it while others don't. The same goes for political participation. Whether it can be effective or not depends on whether you have fought for it or done it. As long as you are bold enough to do it, it will inevitably be effective.
Finally, in the struggle against reactionary forces, we must achieve "strategic contempt for the enemy and tactical emphasis on the enemy" in order to easily achieve success. Strategically despising the enemy, tactically valuing the enemy "is a military saying and the experience of the revolutionary predecessors of the Communist Party. In any struggle, whoever loses confidence first will lose completely first.
In short, we must have full confidence in political participation, firmly believe that political participation will be successful and effective, never yield to reactionary forces, and persist in the struggle to the end.
Of course, there is always a risk of failure in anything we do, especially in political participation where the chances of achieving significant results are not high. Therefore, we must be mentally prepared at all times, be patient and not give up easily, and not give up the struggle because of temporary lack of hope.

Methods and strategies to improve the effectiveness of political participation:
It is necessary to mobilize many people together to provide feedback, feedback, and expression in order to be more effective, otherwise just one or two voices will not be taken seriously
In fact, standing up alone cannot have an effect, not even ten, not even a hundred or a thousand, but ten thousand or a hundred thousand people will definitely have an effect
If there is anything, bring it up. If it doesn't work once, bring it up multiple times. If one person brings it up and it doesn't work, bring it up multiple times
Social mechanics: Everyone should become a positive force; If you have more power, you won't be afraid of negative forces anymore
I won't watch society collapse. Even if a mantis blocks the car, I have to mobilize thousands of mantises to stop it together. With more mantises, it will have an effect
To unite and involve multiple people:
Participating in politics and fearing persecution due to political involvement, if multiple people participate together, it will not happen.
Of course, one person cannot change the current situation, but the key is to see how you utilize all other forces and integrate them into action to achieve your goals.
The effectiveness of political participation. Some people often think that political participation will not have any effect, but we not only need to ask: Have you tried it? How do you know there's no effect without trying? For many people, their conclusions are based on speculation or from others' mouths! Moreover, political participation, like anything else, is bound to have certain difficulties and cannot easily achieve results. It requires a long-term struggle process, and only by persisting in bold and active participation can we ultimately achieve our goals. Even if there is no obvious effect at the beginning, we can definitely achieve significant results in the long run. Another thing is that the impact of each and every one of us' participation may be small, but if everyone participates, the combined effect will be significant.

Of course, there are also areas to pay attention to in political participation, only by achieving these can political participation be more effective and the side effects be minimized.
·Think independently without blindly following or being exploited. The political participation we advocate is not fanatical or blindly following participation, but active, rational, and constructive participation. This requires everyone to have the spirit of independent thinking, so as not to become a fanatical and exploited political activity like the Cultural Revolution.
·Autonomous rather than mandatory. We advocate for popular participation in politics, not blindly demanding that people must respond to government policies, demands, or even individual politicians' political goals as before. What we advocate for is independent, voluntary, and free participation by everyone.
·Focus on action. You may often feel and hear things that are not good about you, but why don't you think about how to change these things? Political participation is about action. Talking without action will not produce any results and is of no use. When there are problems, we should not just complain, but actively solve them through action. Countrymen tend to complain rather than take practical actions to participate in and promote the change of things. Even when many people see that others are promoting some measures, they will say with disapproval that I have thought of these things for a long time, but have not realized that there is a big difference between thinking and proposing, proposing and acting. If you have thought of them, why don't you propose and implement them?
·We need to unite and collaborate with multiple people. Mobilize, unite, and integrate more people and forces to fight together. Only by doing so can we make political participation stronger, have a greater impact, achieve greater results, and better protect individuals from political persecution, reducing the difficulty and risks of political participation. However, it is difficult to achieve significant results solely through the power of one person, and it is also easy to be defeated and framed by reactionary forces. This principle is the same as the saying 'one chopstick is easy to fold, but one chopstick is difficult to fold'.
·There must be a legitimate purpose and a proactive approach, rather than pursuing personal illegal interests or using destructive means, otherwise it will endanger society.
·It must be carried out in an orderly manner. Political participation must be carried out in an orderly manner, and efforts should be made to avoid affecting the normal functioning of society. When participating, attention should also be paid to minimizing the negative side effects and even damage caused.
For the government, if it hopes to accumulate more power to promote social improvement by mobilizing extensive political participation, and if it wants to promote better social development through brainstorming, the following methods can be used to promote the expansion of political participation: 1. Increase the ways for citizens to participate in politics and make various participation channels unobstructed, so that citizens can participate in politics and provide convenient political participation conditions without paying too much price. I have another idea in this regard, which is whether everyone, regardless of whether they are a National People's Congress representative or not, can have the right to propose. As long as they want to propose and have proposals to propose, they can do so. This way, we can better brainstorm and listen to a wider range of opinions, which is very beneficial for both the country and the people. Of course, this does not mean that everyone becomes a representative of the National People's Congress, because in addition to the right to propose proposals, National People's Congress representatives also have the right to vote in meetings. 2. Widely mobilize and encourage political participation and discussion, and strengthen the education of the public on modern social systems and citizens.

Some methods of participating in politics:
We must cultivate independent thinking, dare to doubt and question, and dare to promote improvement thinking
More than a thousand farmers from Dongming County collectively went to Beijing to report to the emperor and caused trouble in front of Wang Anshi's residence, which was also a timely and bold way to provide feedback on the situation
Actively participate without fear, promote social progress: including giving advice to teachers in school, giving advice to companies at work, and increasing social participation without fear
So let's fight more, including filing more complaints, using legal means to protect our legitimate rights and interests instead of enduring humiliation, and fighting against bad behavior instead of turning a blind eye.
Speaking out is also one of the ways to participate in politics and deliberation. Expressing one's opinions loudly on one's WeChat Moments, QQ Space, Weibo, etc. can also have a promoting effect
If you see any shortcomings, please provide feedback. 12345 is very convenient
It's not difficult either, many of them are just normal work
For example, providing suggestions, feedback, and expressing opinions
To widely distribute banners and plaques to officials, to give them a sense of honor and inspire them to do good, as well as to remind them to take good care of themselves
·Expressing strong opposition:
Mobilize everyone to booe and booe ->Shouting Movement: "Choking You to Death" Movement
Organizing everyone to laugh wildly and shout 'Freedom!' can also cheer
The Great Horn Action (using sounds such as honking to express protest and will)
Initiate a vocal "stress reduction" campaign: Under the guise of stress reduction, make a voice anytime, anywhere to form strength and achieve the effect of demonstration
Speak out in the name of relieving stress: The pressure on the people is enormous, teach everyone the way to relieve stress: gather laughter, speak out, let everyone also express their voice through this way, and give pressure to the above
Launch a vocal release "stress relief" campaign: shout loudly and honk, hit objects. Through research and practice, it has been found that shouting loudly can release and relieve inner stress, avoiding the impact of excessive pressure on work, life, and health. Recently, the economy and stock market have been poor, making it difficult to make money and find employment. Many people are experiencing doubled pressure, and they may consider using their voices to relieve stress. In addition to shouting loudly, continuously ringing objects and honking horns are also good ways to vent. When faced with immense pressure and dissatisfaction, let's shout it out loud and ring it vigorously! Let voice release, relieve stress, and express oneself, better maintaining physical and mental health. (Release: Currently, there is a lot of hostility in society, mainly caused by a lot of people being under a lot of pressure. If you see a method that can relieve stress, you can also try it, hoping to reduce stress, hostility, and the resulting impulses and harm to society.)
The online comment section cannot publish content. You can also leave comments such as "hehehehe", "shshshh", "wuwu", "weiwei", "aaah", "justice will win", etc

We mainly adopt democratic and standardized struggle methods for political participation. Here are some common ways of political participation:
(1) Actively participate in political activities such as elections and voting. Whenever there is an opportunity, one must participate in various political activities, vote if possible, and boldly express one's views if allowed to speak. Do not give up any opportunity to influence politics, as this is an important way to influence politics. For example, in the current promotion of grassroots elections, everyone must actively participate and not just passively vote. It should include actively participating in elections and voting, actively assisting outstanding candidates to be elected, and so on.
(2) Participate in and organize various social organizations in order to better fight for their interests. Various associations and societies are powerful tools for citizens from all walks of life to fight for legitimate interests. They can strengthen the power of citizens and better protect each member through mutual assistance and collective action. Everyone must participate and organize more.
(3) Participate in and initiate various movements. Only by launching various movements can the authorities better hear the voices of society and consider everyone's interests when making decisions. Therefore, we must also participate more and mobilize more.
(4) Strive to safeguard one's legitimate rights and interests. Political participation includes everyone safeguarding their own rights. When your rights are violated, loudly complain and strive to argue! At that time, our rights were also the inevitable way for us to obtain legitimate benefits. There are many ways to safeguard one's own interests, including filing complaints, petitioning, and even litigation.
(5) Make every effort to change everything around you that is not good. For those bad things, we should not treat them with an ordinary heart, but actively, proactively, and sensitively think about them, boldly point them out, and seek solutions. We should try to stop what needs to be stopped as soon as possible and improve what needs to be improved as much as possible. Everyone starts by changing the small group around them and takes action to change various things around them. Only in this way can we promote the development of society through extensive and continuous accumulation.
(6) Express one's pursuits and viewpoints through various means. Advocating speaking out whenever there is something, communicating more with various sectors of society, and actively expressing one's thoughts in a legitimate way is also one of the ways to influence society and express one's own interests. Methods include writing letters to various levels and departments to express opinions, suggestions, and voices, publicly publishing articles, collectively signing appeals, and collectively petitioning.
(7) Actively participate in various government and social affairs and activities, provide advice and suggestions for the development of society, assist all sectors of society in doing meaningful work, thereby influencing society and promoting its development in a positive direction.
(8) Actively engage in activities and influence government decisions in a meaningful way through various channels and methods;
(9) To defend truth and justice, we should help the power of justice more, rather than being afraid and watching as truth and justice are harmed and ignored. How can we ensure that society does not slide towards the end of evil? Otherwise, not only will society regress, but when truth and justice are lost, you will also inevitably be harmed and unable to resist.
(10) Protest through marches, demonstrations, sit ins, and even self harm, in order to gain various legitimate interests and affect social development.
(11) Making trouble is also a way to attract social attention and influence politics and society, but unless there are no other ways of participation or other participation is ineffective, it is generally not recommended to use this method.
(12) By doing well in oneself and striving to be a good citizen, everyone can do well, and society will become better and better.
(13) Promote the theory of democracy and freedom to awaken more people and encourage others to participate in political discussions.
If each of us is filled with a sense of social responsibility, actively participates in the construction of society, actively participates in politics, and influences society in a positive direction, then our society will become better day by day. From the above, we can also see that political participation is not mysterious or difficult. Everyone can do it anytime, anywhere, without having a high level of education or holding important positions.

Misconceptions about participating in and discussing politics:
Of course, it is more important to encourage everyone to think independently, in order to avoid the fanatical political participation of the Cultural Revolution
We advocate for popular participation in politics, not blindly demanding that people must respond to government policies, demands, or even individual politicians' political goals as before. What we advocate for is independent, spontaneous, and free participation by everyone.
It's not a mass movement where the masses enforce the law, it's not using the power of the masses to seek illegal benefits and achieve negative goals, it's not using the masses to evade the law but must be carried out under the law
Participating in and supervising discussions, decision-making, and ensuring compliance with laws and regulations, as well as formal procedures and channels. Mass movements deceive people into carrying out law enforcement according to leadership intentions rather than following the law
We still need to clarify a few issues here. Firstly, we advocate for active and free participation in politics and deliberation, rather than being passive political tools like the Red Guards during the Cultural Revolution; Secondly, political participation must be rational rather than unreasonable; In addition, political participation is also different from the Confucian ideology of entering the world. The former is an autonomous participation aimed at safeguarding personal and public interests, with a comprehensive and unrestricted scope of participation, while the latter advocates for use by rulers, serving a minority, and with limited scope of participation (such as not allowing involvement in extremely important affairs or matters that undermine the authoritarian position of rulers).

The government must establish a good participation mechanism, encourage rewards, and eliminate obstacles and setbacks to everyone's participation in politics and decision-making
The benefits of freedom of the press and supervision of speech and avoiding misleading information
To maintain public opinion supervision, we cannot simply refuse to post or delete posts at will. Those who are not right and the prosecution can bring up the above and then enter a defense
Actively supporting the development of social organizations and cultivating the growth of civil society
It is wrong to label everyone's political discussions and arguments as baseless discussions on major issues. Any incorrect discussions can be debated
Encourage debate. The more truth is debated, the clearer it becomes, so there must be debate. If there is no or very little debate, it is very dangerous. It is better and necessary for a manager to frequently hear different voices
Encourage the use of legitimate methods such as complaints and lawsuits to promote social progress
Promote the establishment and strengthening of complaint acceptance functions
There should be a smooth feedback mechanism for all unreasonable aspects
We must also ensure the safety of those who oppose those in power, and not make people afraid to speak the truth
Open channels for political participation, unite and utilize everyone's strength:

Oppose regimes that restrict everyone's political participation:
Authoritarian rule dislikes political participation and opposes mobilizing political participation, and even does not allow the promotion of civic consciousness or judicial independence
**Which country does not give its people votes when speaking at the United Nations, then the United Nations should not give votes either

Political Participation and Physical Laws:
Newton's First Theorem: Without the action of force, the motion state of an object will not change. Similarly, without everyone's efforts to push forward, everything will not change, and the entire society cannot progress automatically. We should not think that we don't need to worry about everything, nor should we think that time will solve problems. In fact, without anyone pushing forward, nothing will develop or even regress. It's like if our ancestors hadn't continuously developed natural and social sciences, then we might still be primitive societies today - just like Native American societies.
The synthesis of forces: Forces acting in multiple directions and of different sizes on an object are synthesized into a resultant force on the object, and the motion state of the object is determined by this resultant force. Similarly, if we do not exert force on things or exert a relatively small force, while others exert external force, this is the "resultant force" that is biased towards the force exerted by others. The motion state of objects is also more influenced by others, especially in the development of human society. Reactionary forces have also formed a backward force, making our development the same as rowing against the current. If we are not pushed, we will actually regress.
The theorem of overcoming friction (resistance) in the motion of an object: When the force acting on an object is less than its static friction, it cannot change the object's static state. However, if multiple forces act on the object in the same direction, but the sum of these forces is greater than the object's static friction, the object will overcome the frictional force and begin to move. During the process of movement, the frictional force changes from a larger static friction force to a smaller sliding friction force, allowing the object to continue moving with less force than before. Similarly, it is difficult for one or two of us to drive the development of something, but if we unite, everyone only needs to contribute a little bit of effort to drive the development of things. And once things start to be pushed, it is easy to do more work in the future. Therefore, we should not be afraid of difficulties or the inability to drive the development of things, but rather unite more people and strength to work together with greater effort to promote the development of things.

·Following public opinion: the necessity of a democratic decision-making system that conforms to public opinion

The benefits of democracy:

The cost of democracy is the huge investment in votes and election processes, while the cost of non democracy is the sacrifice of millions of people for power struggles and coups.
The legitimacy of a democratic system lies not only in its democracy, but also in its effectiveness
Under a democratic, open, and fair competition system, no one can act recklessly beyond the law and various forms of supervision, making political activities relatively safe.
Democracy makes political activities safe: Engaging in political activities under authoritarian and opaque systems can use illegal means to defeat opponents, but it is also very dangerous because opponents can also use the same means, and being wrongly accused in this situation cannot be exonerated.
Should follow the will of the people
Can prevent bad outcomes and extreme situations
Open up channels of communication, guide and advocate not to complain but to express oneself in a good way to avoid negative effects. Communicate and express oneself through formal channels to avoid affecting the collective, the country, and society
In a democratic society, no matter where you are, you can play your role
From the perspective of public opinion reflection,
The decision-making mechanism of everyone discussing and voting together, that is, the democratic system, is the current decision-making mechanism
And collect, summarize, organize and coordinate public opinion to unite everyone and work together towards one goal,
Rationalize the mind and allocate benefits reasonably, so that the mind and energy are all positive and directed towards one place
Let collective voting reflect the true interests to the greatest extent possible
Rationalize the hearts of the people through democracy and freedom
Only through democratic constraints can we prevent disintegration.
The government system is the greatest culture
Establish a reasonable decision-making mechanism that truly reflects public opinion, the interests of all parties, and the overall interests:
The decision-making basis of the government is based on public opinion and the overall interests of the country. So, how to collect and summarize public opinion, how to balance the interests of all parties, and how to prevent the overall interests from being damaged in order to satisfy public opinion when there is a conflict between public opinion and the interests of the entire collective?
The democratic mechanism of multiple people making decisions together replacing the monopoly of decision-making power by a few people is a trend, which indeed better reflects public opinion and avoids decision-making biases and mistakes.
Implementing democracy will certainly be detrimental to the leader's ability to do whatever they want, and when others are stronger than them, it will also endanger their leadership position. However, if handled well, it will actually help strengthen their prestige and enhance the legitimacy of their leadership position - because democracy is the greatest source of legitimacy, not only beneficial to everyone but also to themselves. (Because of this, rulers who oppose democracy are those who lack the ability and dare not face political competition.)
Democracy allows for the selection of excellent and rational forces, while checks and balances prevent any force from dominating. Therefore, there is no need to fear chaos or division due to the realization of democracy. Under democracy, central decentralization is also not dangerous.
Democracy does not mean that decisions cannot be made in a timely manner, as they say. As long as the decisions are good, they will be supported by the majority of people, and such decisions will inevitably be made and passed quickly; On the contrary, authoritarianism often leads to the influence of filmmakers. Even if good decisions are made, the lack of participation in decision-making can result in decisions not receiving support from everyone, making it difficult to implement them effectively.

Accelerate political reform and embrace advanced political civilization in line with the global democratic trend. Democracy, freedom, the rule of law, civic consciousness, checks and balances of power, competition among political parties, open media and public opinion to achieve transparency and full supervision are all good medicines for social reform and progress. They have been implemented in many countries, both in the West and the East. Except for a few countries that have encountered some problems due to improper operation and insufficient public quality, most of the effects have been good. However, we may have been afraid of the side effects of poor manipulation and intentionally stay away from them, even emphasizing not to do these things and demanding not to publicize them. It feels like we are constantly regressing on this path. In fact, in recent decades, China's education has been good. Currently, our national quality has been improved, and people's hearts are also higher than before. I always yearn for democracy, freedom, and the rule of law, Now there are conditions to accelerate the gradual implementation of these things. As long as the operation is done properly, our country can develop rapidly in these aspects. It is suggested to start with cultivating civic awareness, participating in politics, and giving everyone a sense of ownership and social responsibility. We should also promote the spirit and methods of democracy, freedom, rule of law, and constitutionalism, and cooperate with the opening of the media and extensive free discussion and debate to further improve everyone's understanding and literacy in these areas. Most people should be rational and restrained. With these foundations, political reforms can be gradually carried out and avoid collapse.

The disadvantages of undemocratic practices:
In this society where power is absolutely concentrated, everyone can only conform to the dictator and tell lies, which has evolved into an absurd social phenomenon.
Seeking approval for everything can easily lead to delayed responses and problems, while monopolizing power can result in talent loss and block the way out
Power does not come from the people, nor is it influenced by their opinions. How can we consider the interests and feelings of the people
Only by doing so can one person make mistakes, while others make mistakes, and it can lead to a lack of flexibility and timely response. A system that is only accountable to superiors is very dangerous, and it will be difficult to listen to the voices of subordinates. If the superiors make mistakes, the subordinates will follow suit, and even the subordinates will make double mistakes in order to demonstrate obedience and loyalty
Democracy may not be the best system, but it can guarantee that there will be no major man-made disasters. In some democratic countries, both ancient and modern, both domestically and internationally, there is no such thing as a person being able to do whatever they want to harm the country and the people, because power is constrained and monitored, and is often questioned and criticized. However, in some authoritarian countries, there are always people who can do whatever they want and cause great damage to the economy, society, and the country with the actions of one person. For example, in China, there is an example as far away as the Han Dynasty and as close as Empress Dowager Cixi
The harm of undemocratic and centralized power
Appropriate centralization during wartime is more efficient, but limited to special periods and can also be harmful
Officials elected through non democratic means often lack consideration for the interests and feelings of the people. Without democracy, officials are not accountable to the people but only to their superiors

Comparison between Democracy and Dictatorship:
Perhaps we can determine which is better or worse between democracy and authoritarianism through a set of comparisons:
(1) Is dictatorship or democracy more conducive to the development of productive forces and the advancement of things and society?
Dictatorship leads to mutual contradictions and scheming, resulting in the inability to integrate various resources and energy, and even the loss of a lot of energy due to mutual struggle and competition, which is not conducive to social cooperation and development; In a democratic system, everyone is equal and not subject to anyone, and there will be no distorted interpersonal relationships. Therefore, it is beneficial to integrate various political resources just like the stock system can integrate various economic resources. Moreover, people's energy is not consumed in internal consumption, but in work, which is more conducive to the development of society.
Under authoritarianism, rulers prohibit people from engaging in activities that are detrimental to themselves but may be beneficial to others in order to maintain their rule. Moreover, due to their absolute power to do so, many beneficial jobs for humanity cannot be engaged in, and humanity cannot achieve full development; Democracy and freedom can enable people to engage in anything that does not harm everyone's interests. It is impossible for democracy to prohibit people from engaging in things that are beneficial to everyone, because its decision-makers are the masses. If authoritarianism can prohibit people from engaging in things that are detrimental to everyone, democracy can also achieve this, and it is prohibited through due legal procedures rather than individual judgment and will.
Dictatorship leads to social inequality, which greatly undermines people's enthusiasm; Under democracy, with the joint decision-making of everyone, the system of interest distribution has become increasingly reasonable, greatly stimulating everyone's enthusiasm and unleashing all energy unprecedentedly.
Dictatorship makes it difficult for everyone to express themselves, resulting in great suppression and the inability to unleash their potential, which is not conducive to fully utilizing everyone's abilities and making good use of various resources; Democracy provides people with the opportunity to express themselves, feel at ease, and unleash their potential to the fullest.
Under authoritarianism, leaders have the power of life and death, causing people to only speak based on their faces and not pay attention to seeking truth from facts; Under democracy, people pursue higher efficiency, which requires them to seek truth from facts.
Dictatorship is not conducive to innovation, because under dictatorship, long-term absolute identification with the leader's views and reluctance to express any different opinions towards the leader will gradually lead to the loss of innovation ability; Under democracy, people are free to express any different opinions, resulting in the emergence of more ideas and theories, including innovative and useful ones.
Since the decision-making under autocracy is only the final say of one or several people, it is impossible to brainstorm and make the decision-making reach the best possible level. Under democracy, decisions are made jointly by everyone, so everyone's opinions and suggestions are considered, allowing for collective brainstorming.
Similarly, due to the lack of decision-makers, there will inevitably be fewer opinions to listen to. In addition, people are afraid to express opinions different from their leaders, which often leads to insufficiently thorough decision-making, loopholes, or errors, ultimately resulting in mistakes and making the collective dangerous. Democracy has a multitude of diverse opinions that can serve as references, allowing for more comprehensive consideration and avoiding errors.
Dictatorship is not conducive to allowing the most talented people to do the most important things, because without elections under dictatorship, it is difficult for virtuous and capable people to enter the leadership to serve the people and do things better. Under democracy, leaders are elected by everyone, so only those who can best adapt to everyone's demands and have the most ability can be elected.
Throughout the world, places with particularly authoritarian and centralized power are often impoverished; And countries that have achieved democracy and freedom are all prosperous places.
Not only is dictatorship detrimental to the development of society, things, and productive forces, but it also causes enormous damage to various things and productive forces: rulers can squander, waste, kill, incite wars, and cause great destruction at will. Throughout history, how severe the suppression of productivity and civilization by authoritarianism has been!
From this, it can be seen that democracy has so many and incomparable advantages over dictatorship, and dictatorship is so detrimental and harmful to the development of society, everything, and productive forces.
(2) Is authoritarianism or democracy more able to meet the demands of the masses and avoid the influence of a few people's selfishness on the interests of the masses?
Under a bad system (such as dictatorship), people often place their hopes on politicians to participate in politics without their own selfishness, ambition, or personal interests, but few politicians would do so; In modern democratic systems, we are not afraid of politicians overthinking their own interests, because now there is a mechanism for balancing interests, and now that each of us participates in politics, we can better express our demands. We even encourage people to consider their own interests first and more when participating in politics, because this can better reflect the reality of society and make politics develop in a good direction that benefits everyone.
The tendency of decision-making is definitely determined by the interests of decision-makers, so authoritarian systems that rely on individual decision-making often only make policies that benefit those individuals who make the decision. Unless those few people are saints, they can always consider the interests of the masses everywhere, which is rare; Democracy is jointly decided by everyone, so it can better represent everyone's will.
Dictatorship not only places power in the hands of a few people, but also emphasizes the absolute obedience and authority of power. Under it, rulers can do whatever they want, and the interests of the masses cannot be guaranteed; With democracy and the rule of law, those who hold power dare not act recklessly, because the people can also constrain them through democratic systems, such as dismissal during their term of office. For example, the emergence and difficult governance of corruption are caused by authoritarianism, where they do whatever they want without any constraints, resulting in rampant corruption.
Dictatorship only has one power, and as a result, no force can resist it. This increases the likelihood that rulers can do whatever they want, ultimately putting everyone's interests in danger; Democracy allows multiple powers to coexist, which can balance the forces of all parties and further prevent anyone from taking arbitrary actions, thus protecting the interests of everyone.
(3) Is dictatorship or democracy more effective in maintaining political and social stability?
Some people may say that dictatorship can prevent frequent changes in political power. Firstly, even without frequent changes, it is based on sacrificing people's freedom, better choices, and sacrificing the development of society; Secondly, under dictatorship, regime changes are not necessarily infrequent. Apart from a few extremely centralized countries, many non democratic countries such as Latin America and Africa often experience coups and turmoil, and their regime changes are very frequent; Again, even those extremely centralized countries that have persisted for a long time without regime change, their stability is only temporary. They only temporarily suppress contradictions, and eventually contradictions will erupt, and the eruption at that time will be intense and destructive. Therefore, they will inevitably experience turmoil and regime change sooner or later. For example, the outbreak of intense social unrest in Latin American countries is the reason for the accumulation and intensification of long-term contradictions. Tyranny, bad governance, and regimes that are unfavorable to the people cannot be sustained for a long time and will inevitably be abandoned, such as the arrival of the Soviet Union to Taiwan, which is a good example; On the contrary, only under a democratic system can everyone live better, and various conflicts are handled properly and timely instead of being concealed or oppressed and not manifested. There will not be too much fluctuation in public opinion, so the political power has a more stable foundation. Under the addition of democracy, the mutual checks and balances of various rights can prevent all parties from acting recklessly, thus avoiding turmoil. Moreover, in a democratic system, even if there is a change of regime, it is carried out through institutional, procedural, and relatively moderate means, without causing chaos or destruction.
In addition, due to the strong exclusivity and non inclusiveness of authoritarianism, it is difficult for people to get along in a friendly and harmonious manner; Democracy emphasizes fairness, republicanism, and non violence, so people can get along well and society is relatively stable.

Dictatorship forces people to exclude each other in order to survive, while democratic republics enable everyone to live in harmony.
(4) Is dictatorship or democracy more conducive to everyone's development?
Under authoritarianism, people are unable to engage in their favorite and most suitable jobs, which hinders their ability to utilize their strengths and is not conducive to their development; Under democracy, as long as it does not violate the law or harm the interests of others, everything can be freely chosen, and all actions will not be stopped, so that each of us can engage in our favorite and most suitable work and achieve the greatest possible development.
Dictatorship leads to social inequality, which undermines everyone's initiative. This is not only detrimental to the overall development of society, but also to the personal development of each and every one of us; Under democracy, with the joint intervention and supervision of everyone, equality will be achieved, allowing everyone to gain more through their own greater efforts, become very proactive, and ultimately develop themselves relatively well.
Dictatorship makes each of us very depressed, losing interest in things and preventing us from realizing our potential; Democracy allows everyone to freely express their personal opinions, exert their influence on society, and ensure that everyone is not subject to any interference, so their mood is very relaxed and they can maximize their potential, which greatly benefits their personal development.
Due to the exclusivity and exclusivity of authoritarianism, there are very few opportunities for everyone to develop. As a result, in order to compete for limited opportunities, everyone must engage in fierce struggles with each other, ultimately resulting in the loss of a lot of energy and thoughts from all parties involved; Democracy, on the other hand, can provide everyone with the opportunity to achieve self realization and make achievements. Everyone does not have to spend much time, effort, and energy competing for development opportunities, but can focus their main energy on doing a good job, which is more conducive to everyone's development.
Dictatorship makes it difficult for everyone to unite, and each person can only rely on their own strength to struggle, making it difficult for them to develop well; Democracy enables people to better unite with others, cooperate, and enhance their strength, which is more conducive to personal development.
Dictatorship hinders and destroys the development of society, which is detrimental to everyone; Democracy accelerates social development, resulting in benefits for everyone.
Dictatorship can also make people lose their rationality, because people's long-term aversion to the various behaviors of dictators will gradually become overly sensitive to various things, ultimately becoming irrational and extreme; Democracy will make everyone calm and rational.
In addition, democracy is more advantageous for rulers and followers than dictatorship:
1. Democracy is more conducive to the long-term development of politicians and political parties. Implementing democracy may cause a political party or current ruling group to lose power due to not meeting the needs of the masses, but it can also enable them to constantly renew themselves and develop in the long run under the pressure of competition; The use of centralized and exclusive authoritarianism to maintain one's ruling position will eventually fail, and once it fails, the entire political party and group will collapse and be difficult to turn over (the Soviet Communist Party is a good example), and cannot survive in the long run. Which one is better or worse, it can be inferred from this.
Democracy is more conducive to the safety of politicians. From the perspective of politicians, democratic systems are safer and more conducive to protecting their safety and development, as they are more transparent and open, and cannot use malicious and vicious behavior under public supervision; Under authoritarian systems, political activities are secretive and hidden, which can be dangerous for politicians.
(5) Is dictatorship or democracy more effective in promoting global integration?
Dictatorship expands through force, although it can make the world more united, this combination is mandatory and not from people's hearts. Often, it is only a superficial combination rather than a true integration, and it is also easy to re divide. In addition, authoritarianism is exclusive and does not tolerate dissent, making it impossible to achieve long-term integration of everyone. Moreover, this means of combining the world, which is achieved through military warfare, can cause significant damage and harm to the world.
By promoting the integration of the world through democracy, republicanism, multi-faceted discussions, free exchanges, cooperation, and alliances, it is easy for everyone to form consensus, achieve unity, and achieve true, beneficial, and stable world integration in a republican manner. And it is more effective (with historical evidence) and has no side effects.
(6) Is dictatorship or democracy more conducive to handling international relations and world peace
Democratic countries are more conducive to world peace and are a force for world peace. Most people still hope for peace, while some people hope to gain illegal interests or maintain personal illegal rule through war. Therefore, the decisions of democratic countries where most people make decisions are generally not harmful to peace. Therefore, democratic countries are often forces conducive to world peace. Whether an autocratic country is conducive to peace depends on the personal morality of its rulers, which is very dangerous and has a great chance of endangering world peace. Just like when the United States recently announced its policy on the use of nuclear weapons, the reason why it did not consider Russia, which has much larger nuclear forces than China, as the main nuclear weapon threat country, but instead identified China, North Korea, Iraq, Syria and other countries as the main ones is because Russia is a nation-state and will not engage in actions that threaten world peace. It can be seen that when they judge whether to classify a country as a nuclear weapon threat, they do not judge it based on the size of its nuclear weapons capabilities, but rather pay more attention to its level of democracy. For example, India, which is relatively democratic, has not been listed as a major nuclear weapon threat country, while authoritarian and extremist countries such as China, North Korea, and Iraq are seen as enemies.
Because the world is generally moving towards democracy, it is also beneficial for a country to establish itself and handle international relations well in a world that advocates democracy.
The foreign policy of democratic countries is more predictable and easier to deal with. The decision-making of autocratic countries, including diplomatic decision-making, is the ruler's the final say, and is often subject to the influence of the ruler's personal interests and feelings; The major policies of democratic countries are widely representative of public opinion, discussed by everyone together, and generally do not have biased areas, making them more predictable. From their public opinion and common sense, their decisions can be roughly inferred, making it much easier to deal with.

Theoretical refutation and exposure of excuses for authoritarianism:
Reform certainly requires a process, but have we created a timeline?
Underdeveloped productivity and the need for war often become the best excuse for authoritarianism, but on the contrary, democracy is even more needed in these situations.
Although reform needs to be carried out gradually, it should also be done as quickly as possible
The eyes of the people are sharp, so the implementation of democracy does not require the people to have such high qualities (of course, the higher the better).
Primitive society was not too authoritarian because the power of authoritarianism was not very strong at that time
For example, the productivity of primitive society is even more backward than that of slave society, but why is society more democratic than slave society? It can be seen that democracy and productivity are not necessarily related.
The important position of ant colonies, queens, and queens in bee colonies is not a manifestation of authoritarianism, but because they are the only breeders in the community, and without them, the entire community cannot sustain itself. However, autocrats are not able to do things that only they can accomplish for humanity, nor do they gain important status through their own important role.

Refuting harmful statements about democracy:
Democracy is beneficial, while dictatorship is harmful and detrimental. However, at this point, some people may argue that democracy is also harmful and attempt to deny it in order to continue maintaining dictatorship. We also need to refute their statements.
(1) Refuting democracy has sparked disputes and turmoil. Firstly, the occurrence of social unrest cannot be solely attributed to democracy. Rather, it is not caused by democracy itself, but rather by the following reasons: firstly, the inability of the legal system to keep up. Many countries have failed to implement democracy, even to the point of being harmful. This is due to either a lack of legal system or incomplete and incomplete implementation of democracy that does not run through the entire process. Therefore, it cannot be said that democracy is harmful. We know that competition requires systems to regulate it, otherwise it will become chaos. Those countries that failed to implement democracy did so because although they opened up political competition, they did not have a system to regulate competition, resulting in chaotic and dark political struggles and power struggles. One common example is that although they often have an electoral system, their dismissal system is often incomplete. Without a dismissal system, any conflicts of interest can only be resolved through riots. 2、 These disturbances are manifestations of the conflict between old and new forces, and more importantly, they are caused by old forces. Many failures of democracy are often due to the country's (region's) authoritarian tradition being too strong and powerful, which hinders the development of democracy and conflicts with it. Therefore, the disturbances after the implementation of democracy cannot be considered a mistake of democracy, but only a manifestation of the conflict between democracy and authoritarianism, and should be caused by the intentional instigation and destruction of old forces. Secondly, democracy can lead to factional disputes, but such disputes are beneficial for balancing various forces, thus avoiding dictatorship and harming the legitimate rights and interests of anyone. A government that does not allow people to have disputes will only lead to coercion and dictatorship, and such disputes only need to be well coordinated and controlled without any side effects. Again, any reform will inevitably cause conflicts and chaos, which is normal as long as it is not very serious.
In addition, there is another very important issue that should be clarified: we always say that certain countries have caused chaos and poverty due to the implementation of democracy, but the "democratic systems" that have caused chaos and failure throughout history are not actually democratic systems, but only authoritarian systems under the banner of democracy, only incomplete, false, or controlled "democracy". At most, they are just nominal, but in reality they still implement the old and corrupt system, and even become more corrupt. For example, the corruption of their governments is very serious and well-known worldwide. Moreover, these authoritarian systems are often more lax, resulting in them being more harmful than strong authoritarian systems. So we cannot judge the nature of a country solely based on its name, and the same goes for these so-called 'democratic countries'. Otherwise, if we judge based on name, then Germany during World War II would have implemented socialism: because Hitler should also have used the banner of socialism, it was socialism that made Germany extremely vicious and instigated the world war!
(2) Rejecting democracy leads to incompetence, inability to control society, and is even more harmful. They say that in the 1970s and 1980s, democratically elected governments and literati rulers in Latin America were often very incompetent and ineffective, unable to control corruption and chaos. This shows that democratic governments often lead to incompetence and are insufficient to manage the country well. In fact, their weakness and incompetence are not caused by the democratic system, but rather by the fact that the reactionary forces (including some military forces) in these countries are too strong, and there is a lack of legal system to restrain these forces. In addition, the people generally have low democratic consciousness, insufficient support for democratic governments, and are even easily incited to blindly oppose the government, which makes the democratic government lose its foundation and become weak and incompetent, unable to implement strong policies. At this time, many warlords and evil forces took advantage of the government's inability to control society well and caused chaos, resulting in harm, which was clearly caused by warlords and other authoritarian regimes (and many scattered and more harmful ones). For example, after the overthrow of the Qing Dynasty, China became a chaotic war of warlords, who replaced the centralized authoritarianism of the Qing government with scattered authoritarianism. Although people were relatively free, they were more affected by it, which is also an example of this.
(3) Refuting democracy restricts people's freedom. Some people believe that strong democratic systems sometimes limit freedom when people are not aligned with their values. But I believe that it depends on whether the people who are restricted are the majority or the minority. If a minority is restricted, it is normal. No system can meet the demands of everyone (it can only satisfy the majority and compensate the minority). If the majority is restricted, then the system cannot be considered a democratic system. Forcing and restricting the majority is definitely not the result of democracy - because democracy is based on the collective participation and supervision of everyone to make decisions, and it is impossible to formulate policies that are unfavorable to the masses.

Refuting authoritarianism is advantageous and necessary:
From the above analysis, we can clearly see that democracy is very beneficial to both society and individuals, while authoritarianism is harmful and destructive to everything. But at this time, some people still insist on authoritarianism, which also has its advantages. Now let's refute these arguments.
(1) Refuting the theory that authoritarianism is more efficient. Some people say that authoritarianism is more efficient, as it can make decisions immediately without spending a lot of time arguing like democracy. We evaluate the efficiency of a decision by considering both the time taken and the new efficiency. In fact, democracy is more efficient than authoritarianism. Although it takes more time to discuss decisions, they are quickly and thoroughly implemented due to the support of the majority. However, authoritarian decisions often face opposition everywhere, making it difficult to implement them quickly. We believe that as long as the system is well established and relationships are smooth, democracy will definitely be more efficient. Furthermore, even if authoritarianism is more efficient, we cannot sacrifice the correctness of decisions for the sake of efficiency, and democracy can make policies more accurate.
(2) Refuting the theory that authoritarianism has the advantage of lower management costs. Some people believe that authoritarianism can save costs by not having to spend a lot of money on elections, voting, and meetings, but you have to see how much damage the dereliction of duty and corruption caused by authoritarianism can cause to society. When the two are combined, the cost of authoritarianism is much greater, and the people have to pay a higher price. We would rather spend some money on elections and meetings than suffer losses due to dereliction of duty and corruption in order to save such a small amount of money. Democracy, with more investors and a little money, can enable more virtuous people to govern and make good decisions, thereby receiving more returns. On the other hand, even if there is no dereliction of duty or corruption in authoritarianism, it cannot allow the best people to govern and make the best decisions work, thereby reducing management effectiveness and resulting in much smaller returns.
(3) Refuting authoritarianism is conducive to creationism. Some people may say that many achievements in history were created after the creators suffered hardships, indicating that authoritarianism is also very beneficial. In authoritarian and dark societies, although the hardships of life can encourage some people to strive and succeed, it does not provide a good environment for people, and even hinders and destroys their development. Democracy and freedom, on the other hand, can provide a better environment for more people to achieve success, allowing them to fully unleash their talents, resulting in even greater achievements. Have you not seen how enormous and abundant the creativity under democratic systems has been throughout history, both in China and in Europe and America today.

(4) Refuting the theory that authoritarianism is conducive to (rapid) development of productive forces. Although authoritarianism and planned economy have led to industrial development, they have caused people to lose their freedom, their living standards to decline, and the economy, except for heavy industry, to not be fully developed. The people endure severe oppression and poverty. What's the use of industrial development if people's lives haven't improved? At this point, some people may say that industrial development can make the country's economy independent without being controlled by others, but they do not know whether it is more important to ensure and improve people's livelihoods or to make the country's economy independent! This answer is just a statement defending the practice of promoting personal will in the name of defending the country in the world. In fact, using a free economic policy can actually achieve industrialization better. For example, after the founding of the country, if the centralized and regulated methods were not used, political democracy, economic freedom, shareholding system, etc. could still develop the economy and achieve industrialization, which is more conducive to improving people's lives, rather than sacrificing people's living standards as before. In addition, the Soviet Union implemented the policy of "wartime communism" and imposed money and property on people. In fact, this method is not as good as issuing wartime treasury bond, and officials will not act recklessly by forcing people. Even some people say that the social and economic development during the Cultural Revolution was significant, and many numbers were listed, calling it a miracle and the credit of Mao Zedong. They also say that our national strength declined after the Cultural Revolution, and believe that we cannot deny the extreme authoritarianism of the Cultural Revolution. But we need to know: firstly, all the numbers were made, and the fact that people's living standards and conditions were extremely declining and in dire straits during the Cultural Revolution is the biggest fact. Secondly, even if there were some developments, they were developed at the expense of people's interests and by compressing their consumption. In addition, the fact that the Nationalist Party's military and political policies did not complete industrialization is an example of how authoritarianism did not rapidly develop productive forces, which also indicates that authoritarianism is not conducive to the development of productive forces.
(5) Refuting the theory that authoritarianism can accelerate the development of things. Dictatorship can accelerate the speed of change in things, such as Emperor Qin Shi Huang's acceleration of the unification of weights and measures, but this acceleration comes at the cost of dangerous possibilities, and democracy can also accomplish these things, sometimes not for long. For example, the currency unification in Europe was achieved under the promotion of democracy.
(6) Refuting the theory that centralization is beneficial to national development. Some people use examples of successful reforms due to centralization throughout history to illustrate the benefits of authoritarianism. The previous successful reforms due to centralization of power involved centralizing power in a central government that operates democratically, checks and balances each other, and makes collective decisions, rather than concentrating it in the hands of a few individuals. This is not a so-called transition to authoritarianism, but rather a shift towards democracy - concentrating power from authoritarian local governments to democratic central governments. For example, the reform from the Confederacy to the Federation in the United States aimed to remove various bad practices of state governments in different regions, concentrate their power in the federal government, and transform the federal government into a more democratic government with separation of powers and mutual checks and balances. Some successful reforms during the feudal period in China did indeed promote the strengthening of centralization, but those "centralizations" at that time were aimed at strengthening coordination and management in all aspects rather than promoting authoritarianism. They concentrated scattered and chaotic local authoritarianism into relatively complete, orderly, and democratic centralization (such as the court being a system with a little bit of democratic content), so it cannot be said that the success of reforms was due to the role played by authoritarianism. Democracy and Strengthening Control: When we talk about the success of some reforms in ancient or foreign times, it is often due to the strengthening of centralization. For example, the United States strengthened centralization by replacing the Confederation with a federation in order to reduce the situation of mutual struggle and chaos among states; Reasonable and appropriate centralization, and unreasonable and excessive centralization. A strong and favorable government refers to strong sanctions against illegal activities, including good control over officials to prevent them from breaking the law (because officials have greater power and the destructive impact of breaking the law is greater, so it is even more important to control them well). The relative success of Singapore's authoritarianism is due to the high quality of its rulers, while the low quality of its personnel, greed without moral conscience, and lack of knowledge have deepened the failure of the CCP's authoritarianism. Singapore is a dictatorship, but its officials are clean and honest, and it values the rule of law
(7) Refuting the theory that centralization is beneficial for social stability. In the absence of democracy, although centralization is more conducive to governance, control of the situation, and avoidance of chaos than decentralization, democracy is even more necessary in order to avoid serious decision-making errors. So no matter when, without democracy, it will always be very dangerous. Feudal society often strengthened centralization in order to reduce local chaos. Centralization can quickly reduce chaos, but it is not the way to govern a country.
(8) Refuting authoritarianism is conducive to accelerating the development of civilization. Some people believe that in a situation where productivity is underdeveloped, implementing authoritarianism is beneficial for some people to be liberated from physical labor and engage in mental labor, thus promoting the development of civilization. Therefore, it is necessary to implement authoritarianism. But even in primitive societies, rulers not only possessed enough material resources for personal survival, but also disregarded the hunger of many people and squandered a large amount of material resources for personal enjoyment. However, they did not engage in mental labor to promote the development of civilization as we said, and most of them did not engage in their main work. If there had been no dictatorship at that time, not only would it have prevented more people from starving to death, but it would also have allowed more truly intelligent and capable people to engage in mental labor and promote the development of civilization? For example, in ancient times, there were many skilled craftsmen whose talents and wisdom were not better utilized. History is created by the working people, and it is the working people, not the rulers, who promote civilization. Therefore, there is no need to implement dictatorship at any time. On the contrary, if democracy had been implemented since ancient times, how fast would society and productivity have developed!
(9) Refuting the theory that authoritarianism and corruption are beneficial to economic and social development. Appropriate corruption can certainly accelerate the accumulation of capital, which may seem beneficial for economic development, but it also causes great damage to the economy; Secondly, this unfair way of wealth distribution can cause dissatisfaction among people, greatly dampening the enthusiasm of the majority. It also makes it difficult for businessmen to make better money through collusion between officials and businessmen, while those who work honestly are excluded, thus damaging the economy. It even prompts people to learn from the behavior of corrupt individuals and adopt speculative means to obtain wealth, which is not conducive to economic development; In addition, this type of capital accumulation does not concentrate assets in the hands of those who are better able to use funds to promote economic development, but often in the hands of corrupt individuals who are not good at management. They often do not use the funds in their hands to contribute to the economy, but rather squander or hide them. Some people say that corruption and authoritarianism can promote social transformation, but they really don't know how these ways of disrupting social stability and balance can promote social transformation, and the harm they may cause will be even greater.
(10) Refuting authoritarianism is beneficial for creating miracles, so authoritarianism is better discussed. Some people believe that it was the ancient autocracy that created many miracles in architecture and other aspects, and that even with modern democratic systems and technological means, no matter how massive the project is, it is still impossible to create such buildings (Li Fang's "The Limits of Democracy"), in order to illustrate the benefits of autocracy. These miracles, such as architecture, are indeed beautiful and spectacular, but what role do they play in improving people's lives? That is just used to excessively enjoy or maintain the rule of rulers. Building those miracles is a waste, and it is not cost-effective for the entire human race, because these projects often require a lot of financial, material, and human resources, and even sacrifice millions of lives. The financial and material resources expended are used to improve the lives of the masses or carry out practical, mass oriented cultural construction. How good and effective that would be! If democracy had been implemented at that time, then under the joint decision-making of everyone, we would definitely not have built these so-called miracles, nor would we have wasted so much financial, material, and human resources, nor would we have sacrificed so many lives. Instead, we would have used the saved financial, material, and human resources to accomplish many useful things.
(11) When refuting the backwardness of productivity, authoritarianism is necessary. Some people believe that when productivity lags behind, society must implement dictatorship in order to concentrate resources and better promote the development of productivity. Democracy can only be implemented after productivity reaches a certain level. In fact, the practice of forcibly concentrating resources to develop productivity cannot stimulate everyone's enthusiasm. Even if resources are concentrated, they will not have any effect. Democracy is the most beneficial mechanism for the development of productivity at any time, because it can better play the role of all energy and resources, and is also conducive to uniting and integrating various forces, so as to achieve concentration of resources and forces and produce greater results. Some people say that under the backwardness of productivity, authoritarianism is conducive to resisting foreign invasion? But history has proven that authoritarianism inevitably leads to backwardness, which in turn inevitably leads to being beaten. And any system is also the result of the continuous rise and fall of both sides' forces and struggles. Democracy has always been necessary, and there is always something better than nothing, rather than being determined by economic conditions. It does not mean that low productivity requires dictatorship, and democracy is only needed when productivity develops.
(12) Refuting resource scarcity requires authoritarianism. Will authoritarianism be beneficial for collective survival in difficult times? I'm afraid not, because allowing limited resources to be allocated by selfish individuals will never achieve a reasonable and beneficial distribution for the collective. For example, in "The Limits of Democracy," Li Fang said, "In a period of widespread food shortage, dictatorship is undoubtedly more effective than democracy because it requires forced moderation and distribution, although it almost makes everyone unhappy." However, if the distributors do not distribute the scarce food and resources in the best and most effective way to protect the people, and even occupy and squander a large amount of food and resources themselves, won't it cause more people to suffer from hunger? And this phenomenon is common in authoritarian societies! In such a situation, democracy allows individuals to use their surplus food to exchange for other benefits and save others, or under their supervision, even out of conscious restraint, to make those who have surplus food for survival give up their food; Only through democratic resolutions and struggles can these grains be distributed more reasonably and prevent individuals from controlling them. When resources are scarce and the environment is harsh, in order to maintain everyone's survival, it is necessary to sacrifice individuals to preserve the collective. However, this must also be achieved and guaranteed through democracy. If authoritarianism is allowed to achieve this, it often only sacrifices the interests of the majority of people to maintain the interests of a small group of people, who still live far more abundant lives than survival. And some people may argue that Singapore's development is due to the implementation of authoritarianism rather than democracy, indicating that authoritarianism is more suitable for situations of resource scarcity. But we need to see that although Singapore implements a one party governance system with no distinction between party and government, it is only relatively authoritarian. They still hold free elections, and with strict rule of law and a good system for selecting and assessing officials, their leaders are also relatively open-minded and considerate of the people (think about what Singapore would be like under authoritarian rule if it were not led by Lee Kuan Yew). The real reason why Singapore can develop is not due to extreme authoritarianism, good legal system, and good personal ethics of leaders, but rather to authoritarianism. We also know that democracy, the rule of law, the quality and ethics of leaders, the quality of the people, and other aspects are all factors that contribute to the development of a place. We cannot simply attribute the development of an authoritarian place to authoritarianism and ignore the development brought about by other factors. We can also think about this: if Singapore were to implement both the rule of law and democracy, would it be better? The answer is affirmative. In addition, although Singaporeans have a prosperous life, they have become very oppressed under authoritarian pressure, and many people have left Singapore due to the inability to have any voices opposing the government.
(13) Refuting authoritarianism is more conducive to dealing with urgent and dangerous situations. In emergency and dangerous situations, rapid decision-making is indeed necessary, and dictatorship often achieves faster decision-making than democracy. However, we need to distinguish clearly that in order to cope with emergency and dangerous situations, what we need is temporary dictatorship, not long-term dictatorship. This temporary dictatorship needs to be built on the foundation of democracy before, and it is necessary to first implement democracy in normal times, and use people elected through democracy to serve as leaders in emergency situations, so as to avoid this temporary dictatorship from causing too much harm.
(14) Refuting the theory that centralized power is beneficial for resisting foreign enemies. Is dictatorship or democracy more effective in making people more combat ready? Some people may say that under authoritarian oppression, the military sometimes becomes highly effective under pressure, just like the brutal wars of past dynasties can only occur and be completed under high pressure. If there were democratic people, they would definitely not have fought such countless battles with countless casualties. But this kind of combat power generated through high pressure (often supplemented by certain lies and ignorant education) is often not sustainable and cannot truly integrate numerous forces, because people are forced to fight, not from the heart to engage in combat, and even due to dictatorship, people may become dissatisfied, betray their hearts, and affect morale; It can also lead to the realization of harmful war objectives, which can be extremely harmful and even cause catastrophic consequences. If the military is organized using democratic, free, and human rights based methods, it may appear that soldiers are more free, unrestrained, and even lax, but in fact, as long as there are legitimate reasons to mobilize soldiers, as a soldier with a sense of justice, they will still be resolute and more effective in combat; Moreover, a democratic system can unite people and integrate more forces to resist external enemies. We need to use the purpose of protecting everyone's interests and a sense of justice to make soldiers combat effective, rather than using high pressure to force them to go to war.
(15) Sometimes authoritarianism is needed to promote truth. When truth is in the hands of a few and the majority cannot accept it, should we use authoritarianism or democracy to promote truth? Some people believe that authoritarianism is needed at this point, but this view is incorrect and harmful because it sometimes avoids promoting errors that may not necessarily be true, and implementing it in this way will never be thorough. So we still advocate using democratic means to persuade people, so as to avoid the occurrence of the above-mentioned dangerous situations, reduce mistakes and dangers, and prevent some people from using authoritarianism to achieve personal ambitions, and also to receive widespread response.

Expose excuses for maintaining authoritarianism and delaying democracy:
Although democracy is indeed better than dictatorship, this has been increasingly recognized by more and more people. Those who deny the benefits and necessity of democracy and promote the advantages of dictatorship are becoming more and more seen through and have no market. However, those who attempt to use dictatorship to maintain their illegal rule and interests will not easily give up dictatorship. They will inevitably use various excuses to maintain authoritarian rule and delay the realization of democracy. We must thoroughly struggle against these interfaces and practices in order to achieve democracy as soon as possible! Their excuses often include the following:
(1) To deceive people into thinking that they have been promoting democracy.
(2) Emphasizing that democratic reform cannot be too hasty, the implementation of democracy requires a process, a period of time, and a very long time, which delays the implementation of democracy. In fact, reform does not require that long time, but can be carried out gradually and quickly. We acknowledge that reform requires a long period of time, but this "long period of time" refers to a long time before the ultimate goal can be achieved, rather than waiting until a long time has passed before carrying out reform; Of course, we cannot be too hasty in our reform, but this does not mean that the implementation process should not be too hasty, rather than starting from the idea and doing slowly, rather than starting the reform slowly.
(3) Emphasizing the need for stability, democratic reforms cannot be implemented. In fact, as discussed above, democracy can better handle various contradictions and achieve stability. In addition, we can use the rule of law to regulate people's democratic activities, and use the rule of law and the participation of the masses to stop the chaos of reactionary forces. How could this cause chaos? Of course, they may argue that our legal system has not yet been able to regulate democratic activities, so democracy cannot be implemented. However, we know that the legal system can only be continuously improved under the promotion of democracy. The two are interdependent, and we cannot ignore democracy without a good legal system. In this way, not only can democracy not be formed, but the legal system can never be truly established. We can only promote democracy and the legal system at the same time, and ultimately achieve results, rather than promoting one before the other.
(4) By slandering democracy, it is concluded that authoritarianism must be maintained.
(5) It is emphasized that because we are in an "extraordinary period" and our national conditions are "special national conditions", we must use dictatorship to manage the country. For example, Chiang Kai shek's emphasis on implementing "political training" in the past is an example, and there are many others. But in fact, we are not in the "extraordinary period" as they described. Our national conditions are mostly the same as those of other countries - a society that prioritizes commonalities over individuality, and we do not need to implement such authoritarianism.
(6) Using external wars as an excuse to implement authoritarianism internally, calling on everyone to accept authoritarianism and unite with the outside world. It is commonly used to establish an external enemy in the public psyche, thereby diverting the public's attention from the dictator to the external enemy. Sometimes, in order to maintain the dictatorship, they even resort to war, such as Argentina's Falklands War, which was launched by its president to strengthen personal authoritarian rule.
(7) Delaying the implementation of democracy on the grounds that economic development must be prioritized before political reform. In fact, political reform should be more important. Without political reform, economic reform is fundamentally difficult to carry out and cannot be guaranteed. Isn't the failure of the "Hundred Day Reform" a good example? The failure of Soviet reform was caused by political reform without economic reform, but this is not the case. The failure of Soviet reform lies more in the failure of economic reform, not in the failure of political reform without economic reform. However, Gorbachev carried out both political and economic reforms, resulting in a relatively successful political reform but a failure to grasp the economic reform, which caused great social contradictions and led to failure.
(8) By emphasizing the establishment of political and economic foundations, and stating that our economic foundation is not yet sufficient to produce democracy, it can be concluded that we must temporarily maintain the current system, which is the most suitable for economic development. We do not need reform, and democracy is too advanced for us. In fact, as Mr. Xu Shuilian pointed out, the economy cannot determine the political form. The political form is determined by people's identification and striving behavior. For example, ancient Greek democracy and American democracy were both built on a much backward economic foundation than we are now.
I have refuted these excuses before or above. We must expose these authoritarian excuses and not be deceived or fooled by them. We oppose all advocates of authoritarianism, and all those who say that authoritarianism is necessary are just defending it, in order to maintain authoritarian rule and obtain illegal benefits.

Conclusion on the necessity, trend, and inevitability of democracy:
Democracy is beneficial but harmless to everyone, feasible and suitable for the vast majority of times, places, and national conditions. Practice has also proven that implementing true democracy at any time and in any place will only bring prosperity and development, rather than being wrong or harmful. For democracy, it is not a matter of whether it should be implemented or when it should be implemented, but rather a matter of implementing it as soon as possible and immediately.
The process of historical development has been a transition from authoritarianism to democracy, with many twists and turns and even transitions in between. There is always only one inevitability in this process, which is to move towards democracy.
Dictatorship is not beneficial but harmful, but it still poses a threat to human survival and development everywhere today!

How to promote democratic development:
Let's create a mini program/app for public opinion expression, where everyone can initiate voting and participate in voting to express their opinions

What needs to be done and what we can do:
To promote enlightenment to the public: publicize the benefits of democracy and freedom, make everyone yearn for it, and achieve a state of change in people's hearts; At the same time, it also promotes the basic knowledge of democracy, understands democracy, knows how to achieve democracy, and will not be deceived by fake democracy Let's have an enlightenment movement
Create a song of democracy to be sung to everyone
Building the economic foundation for democratic activities: mainly relying on donations and contributions from everyone

Teach everyone how to utilize the existing limited democratic space to maximize democratic effects.
Promote the benefits of democracy for all social classes, increase recognition, especially for officials, and strive for their support for democracy
The team adopts an organizational form of networked and decentralized work at various points

Promote and train democracy. Methods of promotion: mass email, text message or fax, pasting everywhere, preaching everywhere
Mobilize more people to join the preaching team, train them and let them preach everywhere
Promote through lectures and even training courses
The training content includes democratic knowledge, methods to combat non democratic behavior, etc. The training lectures can be downloaded from the website
Promote the benefits of democracy and the rule of law, cultivate people's democratic awareness, popularize knowledge of democracy and the rule of law, and enable everyone to master knowledge and methods of safeguarding their rights

Measures to safeguard democracy:
The rule of law is important for democracy and politics. The rule of law can prevent everyone from doing whatever they want, so the rule of law can ensure that everyone is not allowed to do whatever others want and obtain safety, including the safety of politicians. Otherwise, like ancient authoritarian societies, political struggles can only be fought to the death and eradicated, otherwise hidden dangers will be left and they will continue to kill each other in the future. The result of ancient political struggles was generally not just to knock the other party down, but to put them to death to prevent revenge. Cutting through the grass and eliminating the roots, including killing all the children of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji after Li Shimin's coup, just like how foreign lions will bite all the children of the old lion king to death after seizing the lion king's position
It is important to eliminate all false democracy, including non anonymous practices such as show of hands voting that prevent people from truly expressing themselves. Voting choices should not be made public to avoid retaliation, confidentiality, and protection. Eliminate all false democracy, including non anonymous false democracy such as show of hands voting that makes people afraid to truly express themselves. This is also true: in the election of the President, Chairman of the Military Commission, and Chairman of the National People's Congress, representatives who vote in favor do not need to write anything on the ballot, but directly put their ballots into the ballot box; But opponents need to go to the "secret ballot area" and fill the space after the candidate's name with a dedicated pen. Therefore, representatives who need to go to the ballot area to start writing are clearly voting against.

The limits of democracy:
(1) Individual unsuitability of democracy:
Of course, it does not mean that democracy is absolutely good or suitable for any situation. Democracy also has certain limitations, and at this time, authoritarianism can be used appropriately as a substitute.
For example, implementing appropriate centralization, comprehensive control, and absolute obedience during war can provide various forces and resources that are better than voluntary donations to deal with the enemy. (However, in order to avoid the deliberate extension of authoritarianism, this mechanism of power concentration must be removed immediately after the war ends to avoid harm, and it is also important to pay attention to the significant drawbacks of this approach: although it can unify actions and concentrate strength, morale, combat effectiveness, and people's spontaneous support will also greatly decrease as a result.)
When emergency situations require immediate decision-making, authoritarian measures can also be appropriately utilized. (However, as mentioned above, this authoritarianism must be established on the premise that decision-makers were originally generated through democratic means and must also be temporary.)
In addition, authoritarian systems have certain benefits for the effective management of bad organizations such as triads, but they are inherently detrimental to the pursuit of legitimate interests.
(2) Democracy is not omnipotent, it also requires the cooperation of the masses, the rule of law, talents, etc. to promote social development:
Democracy is not omnipotent. It does not mean that everything is good just by implementing democracy. At the same time, it also requires everyone's cooperation, the rule of law, and the role of talent, because the development of society has many common effects: democratic systems, the rule of law, the quality of leaders, and so on. The greatest effect cannot be generalized. The situation where there is even democracy without the rule of law is sometimes worse than the situation where there is the rule of law without democracy, and even worse than the situation where there is neither democracy nor the rule of law (but the leaders themselves are more open-minded) - if this authoritarian and lawless society happens to have a good leader. This is also the reason why there are many ways in the world that do not implement democracy (such as only implementing the rule of law or even dictatorship without the rule of law), which can work and even be very developed (such as the reason why authoritarian Singapore can develop as we analyzed above), but that can only indicate that other aspects outside of democracy have played a role in promoting social development. Of course, democracy and the rule of law are interdependent, and democracy also promotes the development of the rule of law and the cultivation of talents. Therefore, we cannot refuse to implement democracy because the rule of law is imperfect. Without democracy and the rule of law, it would be impossible to form. And it can be certain that implementing democracy is generally better than not implementing democracy, just like implementing the rule of law is better than not implementing the rule of law.
(3) The current democratic system needs further improvement:
In addition, we also acknowledge that our current democratic system still needs further improvement in order to better express public opinion, better utilize the role of public opinion, and promote the development of society in a direction that benefits the majority while also taking care of a small group of people, and in a direction that is more conducive to the development of things and society. However, practice has proven that democracy is the most suitable for the development of human society, and is the best choice in most forms and times of society.

Why Democracy Failed in Some Regions:
Since democracy is so beneficial and harmless, why has it suffered "failures" in its implementation in some places? Does it mean that democracy is not feasible? Why is it accused by some people as the reason for causing social unrest in many places?
There are many reasons why the implementation of democracy in some countries has failed. One is that the emerging democratic forces are often not mature enough, making some mistakes in the process of implementing democracy and failing to handle various relationships well, ultimately failing to gain public support; One is that in the process of reform, people's expectations often rise rapidly, but reform cannot satisfy the masses for the time being, causing them to feel dissatisfied and oppose democratic regimes; Another issue is that the old reactionary forces have been unwilling to withdraw from the stage of power, constantly undermining the achievements of democracy and oppressing democrats. As a result, the new democratic forces have failed under the criticism of the masses and the oppression of the old forces; Finally, there is another possibility, as analyzed above, that some so-called "democratic systems" are not actually democratic systems, but authoritarian systems under the banner of democracy.
We should not only see the failures of some democratic practices, but also recognize that these failures and the chaos caused by them are generally only temporary. Democracy will eventually succeed as long as we persist. Firstly, it will not be long before a certain balance is reached between the accelerated development of society under everyone's promotion and the decreased expectations of the people due to everyone becoming more calm. The contradiction between the masses and the democratic regime will be resolved; Secondly, democratic regimes will become more mature, experienced, and capable under the joint pressure of everyone, thus making the government better; Again, with everyone's joint efforts, the old forces, this unpopular force, will inevitably be eliminated sooner or later, and the democratic forces can completely replace them and fully play their role. In this regard, Russia is an example. Initially, it caused great chaos and even faced failure due to the implementation of democracy. However, after arduous struggles, it has now embarked on the path of democracy relatively well. The economy has recovered and grown rapidly (as if it had grown by 10% in 2001), and people have finally lived a truly free and equal life.
So, we cannot deny democracy and lose confidence in it just because of its temporary failure and negative impact. We need to strengthen our confidence, improve our democratic awareness and habits, enhance our political discernment, and fight against old forces. We believe that democracy will eventually succeed anywhere in the world - of course, this cannot be achieved without everyone's joint support and struggle.

How to avoid the drawbacks of democracy:
How to prevent democracy from causing social division
The decision-making mechanism of society: cannot be dictatorial, but it is not one person, one vote. It cannot truly reflect real interests, just like companies cannot have one person, one vote. Countries that implement one person, one vote will inevitably experience economic decline (such as Eastern Europe and Latin America), lazy people (such as the lower classes in Eastern Europe and the United States), and sit idly by (such as Venezuela). The United States is not completely one person, one vote, but each state has a proportion
So joint-stock enterprises are not one person, one vote. The practice of dividing presidential votes by state in the United States and determining the number of votes based on the size of each state's interests is somewhat similar to that of joint-stock enterprises
The drawbacks of democracy with one person, one vote are the inability to achieve equality and the mistake of one size fits all equality. European and American politicians have formulated many unreasonable policies that favor low-quality groups in order to win votes, as well as social distortions caused by mob democracy in South America such as Venezuela, resulting in policies that are unfavorable to society and cater to lazy people. In addition, the United Nations is also wrong for a country of all sizes to have one vote. It should be based on a shareholding system, with equal obligations and rights

Excerpt: In order to win elections, politicians have to compete and promise to become Santa Claus every time there is an election (James Soong), resulting in welfare growth exceeding the economic affordability level

The authoritarianism caused by the democratic system, the authoritarianism of major shareholders over small shareholders, the authoritarianism of poor people over rich people, and the authoritarianism of big clans over small clans, is a form of democratic violence that exploits the loopholes of democracy under the banner of democracy

·Discussion on decision-making systems such as voting:
How to establish a good decision-making mechanism that fully reflects everyone's interests, opinions, and is not chaotic:
A good decision-making mechanism can make decisions that are beneficial to both the collective and individual interests, without making decisions that only benefit some people and harm the interests of the collective or other members. It can fully reflect everyone's opinions and collective wisdom, without ignoring the opinions and suggestions of others, and without making mistakes that violate conventions or low-level errors. It also has high decision-making efficiency to avoid missing time and opportunities.
The decision-making mechanism of one-man rule, where one person or a few individuals act independently, not only has the advantage of high efficiency, but also has many drawbacks, including the tendency to make mistakes and incomplete consideration. Currently, it is only adopted in places where dictatorship is still in place and during special emergency situations. Most countries, companies, and other collective organizations adopt a democratic decision-making mechanism where everyone discusses and decides together most of the time.
But how to design a better democratic decision-making mechanism? The current decision-making principle of the minority obeying the majority, as well as the practice of voting rights based on one person, one vote, except for companies that have voting rights based on equity ratios, all have obvious flaws.
Among them, the minority obeys the majority, which sounds reasonable and natural, but there may be interest groups with a large number of votes completely controlling the decision-making power while completely ignoring the interests of interest groups with a small number of votes. The legitimate interests of interest groups with a small number of votes cannot be protected and deprived, leading to conflicts and chaos that affect the development of the collective and each member. For example, the majority black population in South Africa has pushed for policies that are very unfavorable to the white population and even forcibly deprive them of their wealth, leading to economic chaos and rapid decline. In addition, village cadre elections in rural areas often result in large clans monopolizing power and more severely squeezing small clans, leading to ethnic division and social disharmony. In addition, the manipulation of voting by major shareholders in enterprises often harms the overall interests of the company and the interests of small shareholders, resulting in continuous internal conflicts within the company and even affecting its development and decline.

Expert and professional opinions are often more important
Truth often lies in the hands of a few people
The strategy can be few but not many. As stated in the "Strategies of the Warring States," "Those who are of the highest virtue are not at odds with the common people, and those who have achieved great success are not at odds with the masses.
The premise of brainstorming is for valuable ideas, and there are often not many valuable ideas. The Huainanzi: Human Training "states:" Nowadays, the law of adjusting clocks cannot be compared to that of ten thousand people. Those who are sincere and knowledgeable are enough for one person. "The number of people participating in decision-making does not equal quality, and the accumulation of low-level wisdom cannot produce high-level wisdom. As the saying goes," When people conspire, they will be released.

One person, one vote elections are not right
The number of tickets should be determined based on the amount of taxes and donations paid
People who have not paid taxes or even received subsidies should not have the right to vote

The basic purpose of every political party is to seize power, so in order to enable the party to serve the people more, we must find ways to make the party only gain power on the basis of serving the people more, so that they can better serve the people.

In order to concentrate votes and easily win elections, a political party often only introduces a few or even one person to participate in the election, sacrificing the right to be elected of others

My opinion on grassroots elections: There is no change in opinions, poor speeches, and being influenced by the strength of rural sects (it is recommended to solve this problem through appropriate legislation from all parties)

There is also one person, one vote, where everyone has the same decision-making power, which sounds very fair. However, since everyone has different interests in the collective, if one person, one vote, it is easy for the decision-making results to violate the overall interests of the collective and harm the interests of those who have a higher proportion of interests. This is unreasonable and can lead to problems in the collective organization. For example, if a decision-making mechanism of one person, one vote is implemented in a company regardless of the number of shares, there will be more ordinary employees, more minority shareholders, and more votes. The voting results will definitely continue to issue policies to increase salaries, provide benefits, and distribute more dividends to the majority of employees and minority shareholders. This not only causes harm to the major shareholders, but also leads to a situation where the company will suffer losses. Bankruptcy is over for everyone. The use of one person, one vote in national decision-making has also caused many countries to suffer, as politicians constantly spend money at the expense of the country in order to please the majority of voters and gain more votes. They promise to provide generous welfare benefits after being elected, resulting in many people waiting for welfare benefits without actively working. In the end, the country's economy deteriorates and people become lazy (such as Greece and some Eastern European countries, as well as Western Europe and the United States, which have formed large-scale groups only waiting for relief and welfare), and the whole country suffers from poverty, inflation, and social unrest (such as Venezuela). The United Nations also has a voting system where each country has one vote, regardless of their size, which is clearly unreasonable. The voting results often fail to reflect the overall interests of the world, major countries, and their corresponding major populations. Although some countries have made up for this by giving veto power to a few major powers, the drawbacks are still significant. Even some small countries often sell their votes to profit and vote for whoever pays (China often pays for aid and debt relief in exchange for votes). Some people have higher cultural quality and professionalism, richer experience, more mature thinking, and more reasonable votes, just like the voting rights of a professional competition. The authority of expert voting is definitely much greater than that of ordinary audience members. That is to say, expert voting and scoring will have a greater impact on the overall evaluation results. Ignoring the level of quality, professional familiarity, and ideological maturity, one person one vote often brings many negative consequences. For example, in some countries where the majority of the people have low quality, irrationality, or even poor discernment ability, the implementation of one person one vote results in the easy selection of people who are only eloquent and good at deceiving and fooling the public, but have flawed abilities and morals. The harm caused by the results is also very great. It can be seen that the system of one person, one vote seems fair, but it has many drawbacks. It is not universally applicable and cannot be promoted and applied as a universal value. (At the same time, it also reminds some immature young people not to be easily misled by some immature ideological trends and forcibly demand the implementation of one person, one vote in all aspects of society.).
For this, it is suggested to refer to the following methods to solve the problems of traditional democratic decision-making mechanisms:
A) Do not conduct elections and decisions solely based on one person, one vote. Instead, different votes can be given based on contributions such as taxation and social development, asset benefits, education level, professional level, position level, and age. For those receiving relief, it is best to have lower votes than normal people because their contributions to society are negative. For those who have committed crimes such as corruption that have infringed on collective interests, no votes should be given because they cannot represent the interests of society. Only in this way can the decision-making results better reflect and protect the overall collective interests and the legitimate interests of each individual;
B) Each person's vote can be divided into multiple parts and given to different candidates and decision-making options, which can more realistically and fully reflect everyone's intentions. Because not everyone fully supports a certain option, there is usually a feeling that one is the best, the other is also good, and the other is also good;
C) It is also possible to consider giving everyone a negative number of votes, also known as a reverse deduction vote, similar to a veto vote. This way, people can exercise this veto and deduction vote against candidates or decision-making options they strongly dislike, further preventing them from being elected;
D) Adopting appropriate voting by different groups to protect the interests of each group and shareholder group, voting on a certain decision not only requires a high collective support rate, but also requires a high support rate within small groups with fewer members and votes, as well as within small shareholder groups with smaller equity and voting rights (such as the rural elections mentioned earlier, which require not only approval within the entire village but also within small clans). This way, decisions that are unfavorable to small groups and shareholder groups cannot be passed. This method is more effective than the previously widely adopted cumulative voting system (which is actually similar to allowing people to split their votes into multiple blocks and vote for multiple candidates and options, and in the case where multiple people and options will be elected, it is also beneficial to ensure that small groups and shareholders can push their approved candidates and options to be elected as much as possible). Different districts and industries are given a certain number of elected seats (for example, in parliamentary elections, different districts and industries are generally allocated a certain number of seats, and in the US general election, the Electoral College system is also used, where each state has different votes corresponding to factors such as population and economy, and whoever has higher support in the state has the votes of the entire state to ensure the interests of each state are protected). Multiple tribes or political parties take turns to sit in power. (For example, the head of state of the United Arab Emirates is rotated among tribal chiefs) Such methods are more conducive to protecting the interests of various groups and shareholder groups. Of course, this method also has its drawbacks. Some groups intentionally refuse to pass decisions that are beneficial to the entire group for their own interests. To achieve this, it is recommended to set the approval ratio within each group and shareholder group to not be 50%, but rather 30%. It is suggested to have the same proportion as the group in the overall population (but not exceeding 50%) in order to better determine the proportion of no disagreement, which should be relatively avoided. For the voting system, my article "A Series of Improvements to the Voting System" written more than a decade ago has more ideas and detailed explanations http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_89a44d1601012mrx.html ）

Traditional democratic decision-making still suffers from the tendency to miss opportunities or be inefficient due to indecision. Democratic centralism is also a decision-making mechanism aimed at avoiding indecision and failure to make decisions. Some people may have greater decision-making power, but of course, it is important to grasp this level to avoid becoming an oligarchic dictatorship

How to avoid sacrificing the interests and freedom of the majority for the sake of the rights of a few people, often neglecting human rights and focusing too much on minority interests, which delays everyone, including many regulations that only take small risks and cause many people to lose opportunities

Kaidi netizen Sima Ming said: The Supreme Court of the United States can veto laws passed by Congress (this is nine people negating the opinions of many people), and the President can also veto resolutions passed by Congress (this is one person negating the opinions of many people). It can be seen that democracy is not always about the minority obeying the majority.

The national quality is insufficient, and Sun Yat sen also proposed to implement "political training" first, using political nannies to manage the country
In situations that affect the entire collective, individuals still have to obey the collective, just like epidemic isolation
Completely imprisoning power in a cage is not good without public authority
In times of emergency, centralization is more efficient and effective in handling affairs. There is an ancient Chinese saying that goes: 'When things are urgent, follow the power, and the interests are related.' When things are urgent, we should be flexible according to the situation and not stick to dogma.

If it is indeed a monster, it should be suppressed and not given too much power, unlike many self proclaimed saviors in Korea

Democratic society has fallen to the point where people are afraid of losing their votes and dare not offend or punish wrongdoers or bad habits

Excerpt content:
When the wisdom of a country's people is opened up, most of the time, mainstream public opinion represents the right direction (but it is still important to remember that in some cases, mainstream public opinion may be wrong). In such a situation, the broad masses of the people have truly participated in the creation of history. That is to say, only when the wisdom of the people is activated can mainstream consciousness and public opinion have substantive significance. After a series of so-called color revolutions in Central Asia and Eastern Europe from the late 20th century to around 2015, these countries conducted national elections and referendums. Some countries are relatively mature, such as Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Lithuania, etc., and national elections help them move towards a healthy society. Some countries, on the contrary, still elect new problem leaders through national elections, such as Russia, Egypt, and other countries. Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Serbia and other countries that have undergone foreign military intervention have also held national elections, but the results are also very unsatisfactory. In addition, the development of a country's public intelligence also requires a dynamic process. Before the 1980s, South Korea also had national elections, but in reality it was a dictatorship and authoritarian politics. Thailand has had national elections for decades, but there has been no improvement until now. The elected government always makes the military or the Thai king dissatisfied, and a considerable number of citizens are also dissatisfied, causing military coups to occur in this country every once in a while.

·Organizational Unity and Integration: Consolidating People's Hearts to Achieve Unity and Unification: The division and integration of an organization is determined by the people's hearts (division or partnership, division or unity)
A collective, including families, units, and society, has many members whose hearts and minds converge and interact with each other. It is important to coordinate and avoid conflicts
It can unite everyone, unite people's hearts and work together, form a large and directional force, and unite with the outside world to unite against the enemy
Unity and harmony. There is also a need for mutual recognition and harmonious coexistence among employees in the workplace, and for harmonious coexistence among family members

How to promote the growth of collective organizations and attract more members to strengthen their power:
The unity of the country and the separation of families are the same principle. When people have a high sense of identity and think it's worth it, they tend to unite. When they feel it's better to live alone, they tend to separate. This includes cultural identity, which means that 'if people are far away, they won't be able to accept it. Since the cultivation of culture and morality, they have been together.'
To prevent the solidification of social classes, there is no vitality for development. Currently, the solidification of social classes in the West, including Hong Kong, does not provide opportunities for young people, which is very bad. The ancient Chinese examination system and imperial examination system allowed more people to leap over the dragon gate, and there are still many entrepreneurial opportunities available. As long as one has the ability, they can find opportunities and succeed
Provide young people with opportunities and hope for advancement (such as imperial examinations and job competitions), and provide support (such as support for small and medium-sized enterprises) to enable them to make a comeback, so that the entire society is more hopeful and dynamic
National unity requires the recognition of culture and customs, rather than the destruction of certain cultures that cause people to lose their memory. It is difficult for people to lose their memory and may even provoke disagreement
The poor decision-making system has led to divisions in various regions, and those involved should have decision-making power locally rather than being subordinate to the majority as a whole

The will of the people determines independence and unity
Why do some places seek independence and split a certain country or organization, and why do some regions join or hope to join a certain country or organization (such as New Mexico and many other regions that have joined the United States through collective voting and still have many countries and regions that want to become a part of the United States)? Is this just a historical or national sentiment issue, or the instigation of some restless elements?
All of these are not the main reasons, because these reasons are far less important than the support of the people. Just as the meaning behind the saying 'whoever wins the heart wins the world' implies, history develops in the direction of the people's hearts. Without the support of the people, it is difficult to achieve independence or unity. The greatest concern among the people is still their interests.
So as long as it can help the people live a better life, they will support it, and once the people support it, no matter how much they are prevented, they will still succeed.
The reason why many regions seek independence is because the people there have been treated unfairly or discriminated against, which has made them feel that independence or splitting off and voting for another parliament would be better for them. The reason why the CIS countries left the Soviet Union is also the same.
The reason why the current western regions of the United States, as well as Hawaii, New Mexico, and Mexico, have joined or hope to join the United States is because they believe that the American system can and indeed can improve their lives, even if they have not been together in history and their ethnic composition is not entirely the same.
Another simple analogy is that the choice of independence or unification for a region is not like a person wanting to leave one country and live in another. Most of the choices are made based on their own personal interests. For example, if members of a family feel that living together is not beneficial to themselves, they will propose and try to implement separation, even if their family has not been separated for a long time, and even if they share the same surname and roots with their family.
Understanding the principle that the will of the people determines reunification or independence, on the one hand, we must respect the right of local people to choose freely, and not force them to do so. The will of the people cannot be won over, as it will only bring disaster and make us enemies of the people; On the other hand, if we want a region to stay in our country or join us, the first thing we need to do is to use our own actions to improve the big family

Whether it is independence or unity depends on whether it is conducive to improving people's living standards and whether it benefits the majority of both parties.

The unity of equality and mutual benefit is beneficial for the development of both parties, and unity is also a trend, such as globalization, which is a manifestation of the global trend towards unity.

When different regions interact very closely and become traditions, people will see them as a whole, and eventually they will be unified quickly

Of course, it's not just about the party who wants to separate or merge, but about multiple parties making a joint decision

Excerpt: Europeans advocate the law of the jungle of "the law of the jungle" and "strive to be strong in a world of the law of the jungle". The wise in China adopt a more enduring solution: 'seeking the king in a world where the law of the jungle prevails'. The king is the way of the king, able to make all guests submit to the king with the principle of relative fairness. The Chinese say that "people from afar are not satisfied, and they have been practicing morality since then"

If a place can gain support and development from everyone, it must be independent on its own

The Russian manipulation of the referendums in Outer Mongolia and Eastern Ukraine is chaotic, manipulative, and without considering the interests of local mother bodies
