Chapter 23 With Remembrance 57

Elegant people say, "The vernacular is vulgar and shallow, and it is not worthy of the people who know it." People who are illiterate in China can only speak, so it goes without saying that they are "vulgar and shallow". "Because I don't understand it, so I advocate the vernacular, and use my own language to be ugly." People like my generation are just "slang and shallow", which is not a problem.The most deplorable thing is that the few elegant people are still not like the bartenders in the gentleman country mentioned in [2], who are full of elegance all day long, "you need one or two pots of wine, one or two dishes of food" , but can only show the noble character when moaning ancient prose; when it comes to speaking, it is still "vulgar and shallow" vernacular.The voices that come out of the mouths of 400 million Chinese people are so pitiful that they are "not worth talking about".

To become a human being wants to become a fairy; to be born on earth is to go to heaven; obviously a modern person, sucking the air of the present, but insists on sending out decadent teachings, dead language, and insulting the present. ".Killing "now" also kills "future". ——The future is the age of descendants.
