Xiaomi executives resigned due to diaosi’s remarks. How terrible is online violence?

Thinking about human nature under cyber violence

On November 21, 2020, a senior executive of Xiaomi Group said at the forum that those who win Xiaomi products will win the world, and one person will win the world. The words stir up a thousand waves. Netizens who saw this remark criticized it. It was originally a joke, but after being interpreted inappropriately and maliciously, it had the opposite effect. This public opinion also caused the Xiaomi executive to voluntarily fire his job to calm the anger of netizens. This is not the first time that such online violence has occurred. Public opinion seems to have become the mainstream in the online world. Topics guided by public opinion have led to a large number of people who do not know right and wrong to follow suit. How to deal with this kind of thing is inevitable for us now. one thing.

We have to admit that the harm caused by the Internet on the human level is too great. Due to the interactive, convenient and virtual characteristics of network technology, when faced with a problem, many people judge the matter with their own ideas without thinking. This kind of without thinking is The mainstream actions of netizens towards public opinion. After their opinions are recognized by most people, this group of people will take the lead in the online virtual world. They not only dominate public opinion, but also dominate social status to a certain extent. They will express their opinions And the position of holding this point of view serves as the moral high ground and plays a guiding role in guiding others.

But most of the time, the truth is often in the hands of a small number of people. In a virtual world with vague concepts of the rule of law, few people care about the voices of truth holders, and more attention is paid to their own psychology. From this perspective, it can be said that sensibility defeats reason, and human feelings suppress the rule of law. This is undoubtedly an impact on the current social system in an orderly society ruled by law, and this approach is extremely undesirable.

But after all, the Internet is related to reality. The Internet is also a kind of social culture at its root. We should inject more rational color into the Internet, bring the concept of rule of law into the Internet culture, and achieve reality and reality. Virtual unity suppresses the negative impact of the current network and looks at things more comprehensively.
