Chapter 38 Dismantling the General Theory: It’s just official language

I don't know if this Mr. Wang Pingling is his real name or a pseudonym?But judging by the place where he submitted the article and the tone of his argument, it is clear that it belongs to the "official".As soon as he picked up the pen, he sued two people to his superiors and subordinates, which is really full of official power. It can't be bent, and it is also full of official language.Plants are pressed under the stone, so they have to grow curvedly. At this time, it seems that the stone is proud.What "heard" and what "if" is so uncomfortable.Who did you hear?What if not "if"? Who are the "Dedications to the Soviet Authorities", and who are the "so-called revolutionary writers" who "are tired and lazy, and drive to the scheduled incense nest in a shiny car"?Yes, once someone[7] ordered all the college students to stand up and bow to Borodin[8] at the beginning of the term, making him bewildered; The two really seem to be the same; as for the number of people who gather pleasure, it is a well-known fact in the society, but unfortunately it is not us.Mr. Pingling's "heard" and "if" have become aimless and bloody.

So we have to talk about "culture itself".Just imagine that a few young people who are writing and writing are about to encounter the disaster of imprisonment, shooting, and disappearance. I wrote six short reviews of "less than 500 characters", and immediately attracted "heard" and "if" comments. In Mandarin, it is called "gentlemen", and there is a general catch.As for those who do "basic work", who else can we rely on besides the "third type of people"[10] and "nationalist writers" who are now under the auspices of officials? "Oh!" But they couldn't do it.Now there are only my "pretentious, hesitant" articles, but it is a product of this society.And Mr. Pingling accused him of being "non-revolutionary", as if he was a real old-fashioned revolutionary party, which is really strange. ——But the really old mandarin is exactly like this.July nineteenth.
