History is full of vicissitudes of life, marking the hardships of the nation. When future generations looked at history, Lu Xun saw cannibalism; Bo Yang saw sauce jars; some saw the precipitation of a toxin; others saw a glorious civilization that had been passed down through history for thousands of years, and were filled with honor, disgrace, and joy. However, everything has two sides, and the above statements only see one side of history. It is inevitable to be biased and to overgeneralize. History is actually a process, in which culture gradually precipitates. Five thousand years of civilized history have given us infinitely rich wisdom, which is an inexhaustible treasure for us. We should never engage in any indecent behavior. However, the accumulated historical culture has its essence and its dross, so taking the essence and discarding the dross is the historical materialist attitude we should adopt.
