Pi Yijun
Inkstone, July 9, 2019
This article addresses morality for the average shu shu. Confucianism teaches that rather than changing society, an individual should focus on his own life and family. Pi Yijun ties this to the agendas of authoritarian governors, from emperors to you-know-who.
"Believers focus on their own well-being, not social justice." This reflects the obsession with material possessions, money, and success. When the focus is on yourself and your own well-being, success is equated with goodness. There's no need to worry about others; as long as you're successful and safe, that's not your problem.
