What does the spirit of Ah Q mean?

"Ah Q's spirit" is simply a kind of masturbation spirit or inferiority complex, which is summarized by scholars as: Ah Q's self-deception, inferiority, inferiority, self-mockery, self-justification, self-humiliation, arrogance and narcissism. In short, in the face of failure and humiliation, we dare not face up to reality, but comfort ourselves mentally with false victories, anesthetize ourselves, or forget it at once.

The first characteristic of Ah Q's spirit is "self-esteem addiction". Ah Q is a very modest person. He has no home, lives in Tugu Temple, has no fixed occupation, and only works as a short-term worker. People only think of him when they are busy, and forget him when they are idle. However, Ah Q is very self-respecting. "All the residents who have never lived in Zhuang are not in his eyes." Even grandpa Zhao's son did not show spiritual respect when he entered school, thinking that "my son will be much richer than him." Ah Q even looked down on the city people and thought it was "ridiculous" for them to call the "bench" and add shredded onion when frying bighead carp.

The second characteristic of Ah Q's spirit is "bullying the weak and fearing the hard". Ah Q likes quarreling and fighting with people best, but he must evaluate his opponent. He will scold when he is full of words and beat when he is weak. He had a fight with Wang and lost, so he said the gentleman said he wouldn't do it; He estimated that Xiao D was too young to beat him, called Xiao D an "animal" and let him go, but he was firm and began to scratch Xiao D's braid. Touch the little nun who has no resistance, twist her cheek and say, "I can't move if the monk moves?" Frivolity. However, he met a "fake foreign devil" on the road and blurted out a "bald man", only to be heard by the "fake foreign devil". The "fake foreign devil" raised a "sad stick", and he quickly shrank his neck, waiting to be beaten, even eating a few sticks, and did not dare to resist.

The third feature of Ah Q's spirit is "sexual fantasy". He believes that "any nun must have an affair with a monk; A woman walking outside must want to seduce a man; A man and a woman are talking there, there must be activities. " So, when Grandpa Zhao's maid, Wu Ma, chatted with him in the kitchen for a few days, he suddenly rushed up and said to Wu Ma, "I'm sleepy with you, I'm sleepy with you."

The fourth characteristic of Ah Q's spirit is "superficial appearance". He went to a nun to steal radishes and was found by an old nun. He also argued irrationally: "Is this (radish) yours? Can you get him to promise you? "

The fifth characteristic of Ah Q's spirit is "good at thinking". Ah Q had always hated the revolution, but when he saw "a group of birds were in a panic", he thought, "The revolution is ok. Killing these mothers is disgusting! How hateful! Even I have to surrender to the revolutionary party. " The purpose of Ah Q Revolution is only for self-interest, "I am the person I want and I like". So he thought of gold ingots, foreign money, foreign gauze shirts, the Ning-style bed of the scholar's wife, and the tables and chairs of the Qian family. Thinking of revenge, I killed little D, Wang Hu who fought alongside me, and the scholar who insulted me, the fake foreign devil Grandpa Zhao. He thought of Zhao's sister, Zou Qisao's daughter, fake foreign devil's wife, scholar's wife, and Wu Ma, and he couldn't decide who to have. So when his "revolutionary" appeal was rejected by fake foreign devils, he wanted to sue him for treason in yamen and let him copy it all.

The sixth characteristic of Ah Q's spirit is "self-deception", that is, "spiritual victory method". Ah Q suffered a loss in a fight and thought, "I was finally beaten by my son. Now the world is really disgraceful, and my son actually beat Laozi. " So he was satisfied, as if he had won. When he was put into the cell, he "thought that it was time to catch in and out between heaven and earth"; When he was dragged to be beheaded, he "felt that between heaven and earth, he had already been beheaded." Therefore, Ah Q is "always proud".

The seventh feature of Ah Q's spirit is "slavery". When Ah Q saw his interrogators wearing robes, he knew that this man had a history. "The knee joint immediately became naturally relaxed." He knelt down at once. The gown told him to stand and talk, but he knelt down, and he knelt down during the second interrogation.
