The value of emotions

Remember, emotions are of no value, and only when emotions can be used will their value be realized.

When an event occurs, people form value judgments and then generate emotions. Negative emotions often spread faster in news events, not limited to fear, hatred, anxiety and so on.

The public's next reaction can be divided into several categories. First of all, people who lack access to information and professional judgment express some emotions, or shake their wit, or curse, so as to deepen their sense of correctness in their value judgments. Emotions are of no value to the individual at this time, but the horror is that such people are the vast majority, and they are one of the sizable constituents of public opinion.

The people in the second part have a certain ability to act. They are determined participants. Faced with this negative emotion, they begin to actively look for ways and groups to solve the source of negative emotions. However, the lack of information channels and the lack of professional judgment still exist, so the actions they take may not be effective. Most of the solutions they want are a headache and a foot pain, which are easy to be exploited and appeased. .

There are also some people, who can be the leaders of the second part of the people, who can point out the deep contradictions within the event itself and propose practical, real and effective solutions. The demands should not be excessive, and the achievements of the day should not be fought for. It should be pointed out that under a stable social framework, unless a violent revolution occurs, the speed of change will not be too fast, and there will be no reform once and for all.

Interestingly, the third group will always be a minority, and in modern democracy they need to win over one or two groups of people. For the third group, the emotions of others are tools used to achieve one's own goals. Based on this deduction, the person who masters the tools to change people's emotions also masters public opinion. Looking at it from another angle, everyone's emotions are of little benefit to the achievement of the real goal of the other side, but only to the achievement of the goal of the information publisher.

Soldiers must be warm-blooded, and generals must be rational, and at the same time make soldiers warm-blooded.
