Changes in the benchmarks for judging things -- take myself as an example, but there is no guarantee that the memory is correct Changes in benchmarks -- take myself as an example, but there is no guarantee that the memory is correct

Recently, I have been studying psychology for the elderly. Of course, I am not old enough, but this is more or less a review of the content of psychology when I was a student. It also reminds me of some things, that is, how the standards for judging things are established.

Regarding this proposition, of course I am the most accurate, but on the other hand, memory is actually very unreliable in this kind of thing, and many memories will be overwritten by hindsight judgments, because what we are discussing now is not those that happened objectively. Live things, but the standard I use to judge.

In short, I put forward the part I am sure of and take a look. It can be regarded as a record. Of course, it may be meaningless.

In fact, there are people who have read my blog for a long time (is there such a person?), at least they can see the changes in my standard of view of things in the past ten years or so, and they are not static. Some I don't agree with now, and even feel a little embarrassed! But I kept it anyway, first for the record, and secondly to help myself see where, when, and why I turned.

In addition, whether this turn is an improvement or simply because of the adaptive judgment of the situation change is irrelevant, or it is completely backward. Sometimes it is really difficult to say, because it may be different in ten years.

Of course, if the root of the change is brought about by the simplest reason, it is the difference in "knowledge". If nothing else, I was still an "antitheist" when the blog started (yes, at that time I had left atheism, turned into a period of confrontation, then came a period of surrender, and then came a period of obedience, and now... Can be considered a period of love and love -- hope so).

There are various other judgments, such as the death penalty, labor rights.

And earlier perspectives that have changed, such as gay issues, gender awareness.

Earlier, it included the issue of Taiwan sovereignty and Taiwan independence, democratic politics, and so on.

Push further back, and there are more, all the way back to the hour.

When I was a child, I didn’t know much about emotions. Basically, the source of values was my parents. Second, in that era, information was closed, so the old three or a few newspapers, and schools were all. That was the period of martial law.

By the way, there is also the church, but at that time I mainly regarded the church as a place to listen to stories, and the impact on me was not obvious.

In short, I am most grateful to my parents at that time, because they were all ardent supporters of forces outside the Party. In other words, they made me develop a mode of thinking that questioned authoritarianism during the martial law era. Although most people are taught to know how to "reflect" when they are young, many times this kind of introspective education only emphasizes "self-deprecation". In short, adults are right, children are wrong, and it is an authoritarian class consciousness. Cultivation, the so-called introspection learned in this state, is actually servility.

But the real introspection is the way of looking at things. What we need to verify is not only our own right or wrong, but also the right or wrong of others, as well as the right or wrong of our response to others.

To put it simply, the Kuomintang regime is right or wrong. This alone is a forbidden item for many families to discuss. You shouldn't think about it. The Kuomintang is always right - just look at how many die-hard blue Dings there are now.

In short, the differences between the views raised by my parents, schools and the media can stimulate me to think about "how to deal with it". As a result, I am very good at writing model articles that the party-state education likes, that is, at the end, I must add "Three Principles of the People to Unify China" , to rescue the suffering compatriots in the mainland" kind of. It also made me get 97 points in the joint entrance examination for the Three Principles of the People, but as soon as I went to college, I began to sing the national anthem while watching a movie and refused to stand up (remember when I used to sing the national anthem before watching a movie? I was once scolded by the old taro for not standing up! ).

Of course, going to university is a whole other world. On this point, I really encourage everyone to leave their hometown to go to university. Living in different cities will really be completely different.

When it comes to changes in the environment, in fact, moving and transferring schools. I grew up in Taipei. Although the Tianmu and Beitou generations were more like "suburban" (for example, there are fireflies to watch), it is always the capital area. Later, when I moved to the countryside of Chiayi, it was really a big shock. For example, I had to grow my own vegetables for a nutritious lunch.

Later, I moved to the city center of Taichung, which was another huge change. I tried to take the bus by myself, and there was a night market within a few steps of going out, and there were a lot of cars during and after class.

At this time, the difference in public construction is probably the most felt. For children, it is parks, art galleries, museums, etc., and they have a strong sense of the gap between urban and rural areas. Especially when they moved back to Chiayi in middle school, they can feel the difference in resources even more. .

The feeling of going to Taipei in college is another situation. After all, I went to the school with the most resources in the country, and I deeply realized what happened to the original class replication, because I was indeed a minority in the school, and there were many such high-ranking officials. Noble children, this is even more evident in the use of money.

Of course, this kind of thing has actually been experienced by everyone at a certain age. Everyone has a different experience package, and natural judgments are also different. The more experience, of course, the more advantages (but not absolute).

At this time, learning channels such as reading are of course particularly valuable, because you can absorb the experience of different people, but I am not doing reading promotion now, and I will stop there.

In short, this is the focus of lifelong learning. Although the older you get, the more you understand that purposeful habits can improve efficiency, but at the same time, it is easy to narrow down your experience. This is a problem for many professionals, because the professions that people in the society need are "generalist professions." ".

For example, you don't have to be a lawyer, but you must have legal "common sense"; you don't have to be a doctor, but you must have medical "common sense"; you don't have to be a teacher, but you must have education "common sense" when you are a parent... In the end, you will Find out that you need a lot of "common sense" to live well.

In practice, this is unlikely to be achieved. In the end, what we need to do is to "save time and improve efficiency", that is, to rely on experts, but the choice of experts often involves value judgments, rather than the real expertise behind them.

This is actually no problem. I don't believe that people who will be yellow, white, blue and yellow are experts at all, no matter how professional they claim to be.

For example, regarding the epidemic prevention policy of Wuhan pneumonia, you can hear people who also have the title of experts, but the things they say are contradictory...

At this time, you need to understand the public health profession yourself, or do you directly examine the ideology behind the speaker, which is faster? Everyone knows that in the end, it is the most efficient way to talk nonsense because of others.

To be honest, in Taiwan using this standard to judge, it is actually not easy to choose the wrong one...

But this is actually a set of judgment criteria, and we will use different judgment systems to deal with problems at the same time. In other words, even though we know that this judgment is very one-sided, we still want to use this judgment to bring about. Convenience and peace of mind.

The point is, stay alert! Because you don't know when you'll change your stance again.
