[Haichuan Workplace Evening Chat] What does it mean when a gentleman is disrespectful?
Thread Content
What does it mean that a gentleman has no power? many people will say: Doesn’t it mean that a gentleman should not be used as a tool by others? A gentleman does not have tools, tools are expertise. A gentleman is someone who can break out of his own expertise and open up a new realm. It’s not that you can’t have expertise, it’s just that there is a higher realm beyond specialization.
Much of the so-called culture is exploited by collusion. For example, the incompetent Sanda athletes worshiped the famous charlatan Ma Baoguo as their teacher. The athletes relied on the fake master to increase their fame. The fake master turned his thugs into the villain King Kong. They formed a group and tricked Xuanzang into studying the scriptures. They brought back a bunch of shell-page apocryphal scriptures and translated them according to their own ideas. They complemented each other. Many people will find ambiguous opinions in ancient texts and other scriptures to sell their own opinions and appear to have a basis for bragging.

My intuitive understanding is that a gentleman should not regard himself as any kind of utensil, because utensils are all concrete things with form, content and quality, and they may even be inscribed with cultural labels to show his high status. A gentleman should not be a specific thing, but like water and air. He should not be limited and constrained by these things. It is better to be simple and conventional. I also agree with Mr. Qingcheng's point of view. Some guys take themselves too seriously, which may not be a good thing, such as drowning.
Confucius was a loser, and his words cannot be trusted. Confucius's first job was in politics, but he was kicked out. Later, when he wandered around six countries, no one cared about him. With no way to make a living, he changed his career to become a teacher, and then he became stable. The characteristics of a teacher are like those "experts" who cheated money in Haichuan Forum. They can brag, but not in actual combat. This is why Confucius is rubbish in politics. After becoming a teacher, he can get up by bragging, but he is essentially a loser. Since he is a loser, his words are also nonsense. Precisely because his words were nonsense, rulers of all dynasties were happy.
Kong Laoer himself is a noble, and his own martial arts value is also good. The students who follow him are also nobles and people who can fight. The main reason is that his political ideas are unrealistic, and the old-fashioned etiquette and duty-keeping will not work in the troubled times of great strife. The 72 generations of slaves of the second family of Kong Lao, the descendants of the Kong family, and the second ministers of the twenty-four dynasties, have all been given preferential treatment. Their greatest use is that they are useless.
Bai Wuyi is a scholar. Pure scholars are the most useless

The altar of Haichuan has a beautiful face and big breasts, but it is also strong without desires.
So the so-called "unable to become a useful person" has become a "gentleman"? ;P
