Life is actually a dignified resistance. This is Mr. Zhu Tianxin's golden sentence. Used to describe the most advanced lifestyle: half rolled in and half lying flat, which is probably the most appropriate way. In fact, there is no absolute right or wrong in this world and there is no fixed direction. So, what is the best way to live?
The word involution comes from the Internet community. It means that in the same living environment, people constantly increase their investment and squeeze their energy and time to gain more resources and power. At the same time, it is also a form of fierce competition and self-squeezing.
Lying flat is the other extreme. It is a passive resistance and evasive attitude towards the unchangeable reality. In today's society, involution has become a common phenomenon. Especially in education, employment, real estate and other fields. The reason is very complicated, but it can mainly be attributed to the limited resources and social unfairness.
In a highly competitive environment, everyone is forced to work harder and study harder, even sacrificing rest and personal life in order to win more resources and opportunities.
Involution, an online buzzword, originally refers to a phenomenon that a cultural model cannot be stabilized or transformed into a new form after reaching a certain final form, and can only become more complicated internally. Through the Internet, many college students use it to refer to irrational internal competition or "voluntary" competition.
Now it refers to the phenomenon that peers compete for limited resources and make more efforts, which leads to the decline of individual "income-effort ratio", which can be regarded as hard inflation.
According to the Baidu index data analysis platform on August 25th, 20021year, the average daily search index value of "Inner Volume" is 16999, the average daily search index value of mobile is 14886, and the highest peak value is 88726.
Involution and lying flat are two sides of the same coin: one is to live nervously and struggling; A indifferent to fame and fortune, carefree. People often ask, is this progress or retrogression? Pursuit or flight? The ancients said, "You can't have your cake and eat it."
So, can we find a balance between involution and lying flat, a most peaceful lifestyle? The real world is neither an involution frenzy nor a flat swamp. I'm afraid the most down-to-earth way of dealing with the world is between the two, half of which is involution and half of which is lying flat.
