What is the major cause of stupidity?

I have checked with the AI about stupidity.   The AI told me stupidity is not related to medical or science causes.

And I think the AI is right.

Stupidity is not medical.   It means it is not related to slow learning or inborn features.

Many highly educated people are stupid.

They are smart and they are highly educated and they are learned.   They have all sorts of resources to their decisions.

But still, they made wrong decisions always.

It is not science. It is history.

How can you deal with a stupid person?

Can you talk with them and educate them or even give them money just to hope that they will not be stupid enough to do bad things?

No, you cannot educate them, but you can give them a lesson.

I hope they will not be that stupid if they have that lesson.

Is language really unavoidable?

 20260923

Is language really unavoidable?  

For individual communication, it seems language is useful, but not unavoidable.  

Sometimes you can use some unknown radio waves from your eyes to tell your thoughts.   

But the question is:   will our evolution be totally different if we do not have languages?

Are there any other brain waves that can connect people and produce thoughts?

People in love will tell you positive answers.

They will tell you they can "sense" what other people thinks.

Maybe the sense ability  is different among people.

Some people can sense more than others.

They are always winners.

But this is never a topic in textbooks.  It is important but no teacher will teach you.

It is useful in many levels.  It is useful in diplomatic communication and politics.

But people can only learn it from their daily experiences.

Sometimes an eye contact can induce war.   And sometimes an eye contact can gain trust and friendship.......

It is because:

The unknown waves from the eyes is only a reflection from the inner feelings in your heart.

You have the heart and you have the eyes.  It is as simple as that.

Sometimes you can talk with each other without using languages.

It is a very good feeling.

It is for only a privileged few.

They can use it in love games as well as war games.

What is the prospect of Chinese culture?

20260923

 What is the prospect of Chinese culture?

The prospect is for a hundred or even thousands of years.  What will a future China looks like?

Two major forces are shaping China:

One is the material trend from the West,  the other is the traditional Chinese spirit which is weakening day by day.

I think the Chinese will become bilingual in a short time.  It meant the Chinese can handle two languages simultaneously.  It won't be long.  And it will be better than most other Western countries.  Because a second language in the Western countries are usually weak  and not useful.

This Chinese bilingual trend is coming from a force. The force is the material side of the human mind.

And this is the major threat to the Chinese prospect.

Chinese way of thinking is another major trend of human culture:

At the very beginning it seems to be only some acupuncture or some Chinese way of painting etc., but it is more than that.

It is not like the Western way of material limitaton:  The Chinese way of living has a meaning:   it is not only a tool. 

Human culture is just like a double river.  The Eastern side of the river represents something else.   It's complicated and it is simple.  It is not only a matter and mind  division.  The river is another way of human living.   It is the inner relations of humans. It is more than a term of  love.  "Love" is an external teaching for a modern commercial life.  It is not a natural human relation.   The Chinese bonding of life is from an inner "urge" which is like the strong force from a tiny seed to grow.    It is a huge force to maintain a whole  forest.

What is the prospect of Chinese culture?

It depends.

It depends the hard work of the future generation of a Chinese mind.

How different are the "two kingdoms" situation?

 20260922

How different are the "two kingdoms" situation?

Three kingdoms were an ideal situation for the lovers of history.

However, the three kingdoms situation is gone.

Will the two kingdoms situation easier to handle?

Will the two kingdoms situation more interesting?

At first there were many kingdoms.

And the kingdoms were gone one by one until only two are remaining.

Can they be smart enough to maintain the balance for a longer time?

Maybe to maintain a balance of two is more easier than a balance of three?

It is difficult to say.

For a multiple balance, you can always have more choices.

If there were only two actors on stage,  the play is much more difficult to handle.

But there will be some optimistic issues here.

Humans were living in a situation of two more than three.

We have two eyes, two ears. two hands and two brains,  but we have only one mouth.

It is always a perfect design of living beings.

Maybe we are still premature to think in such a way.

From the aspect of civilizations,  don't you know you are on the left side or the right side?

It needs to cooperate with the other side always....

On condition that they can make all sides happy.

Human civilization is a complex of multiple entities.

We are more than two, we are many.

The "two kingdoms" situation is only a joke,  a wrong  interpretation about  human civilization.

And some people would argue that one kingdom is better.

Is "honesty" the basic value of humans besides "love"?

 20260920

Is "honesty" the basic value of humans besides "love"? 

遠交近攻

來勢洶洶

轟炸伊郎

滿面笑容

It is very difficult to say that love is the basic value of humans.

But actually it is a hidden link between humans.

Humans will have no families if love is not included.

Humans will be living like animals if they have no love.

However, if you check with an AI,  the AI will tell you honesty is also important.   There will be no love if there is no honesty.

Shall we be honest to ourselves and then we can have love?

How can you love if you cannot trust yourself?

There will be good guys and there will be bad guys in this world. 

Both of them are needed.

That means love and hatred must be going together, just like honesty and liers can both exist.

這就是坐二望三的兇險了:

臥榻之旁，豈容安睡？

note

「臥榻之旁，豈容安睡」，可視為這句經典名言的變體。其最原始、最權威的出處是「臥榻之側，豈容他人鼾睡」，出自北宋太祖趙匡胤之口。

一、出處與原文

最早見於南宋李燾《續資治通鑑長編》，記宋太祖趙匡胤於開寶八年（公元975年），面對南唐使者徐鉉請求緩兵時的回應。

原文：

「上怒，因按劍謂鉉曰：『不須多言，江南亦有何罪，但天下一家，臥榻之側，豈容他人鼾睡乎！』鉉惶恐而退。」

二、歷史背景與上下文

當時宋朝已先後攻滅荊南、後蜀等國，對南唐形成包圍之勢。南唐後主李煜派博學的徐鉉出使宋朝，試圖以言辭說服宋太祖罷兵。

徐鉉在朝堂上極力陳述南唐無罪，言辭懇切。宋太祖按劍而怒，直接打斷徐鉉，說出這句名言。字面意思是「我的床邊，怎麼能容許別人呼呼大睡？」實際是宣告趙匡胤統一天下的決心，比喻自己的勢力範圍絕不容他人染指。

三、常見變體

後世流傳中產生多種變體，「安睡」也是其中之一：

· 「鼾睡」：最通行版本。

· 「安睡」：後世文獻亦見「臥榻之側，豈容他人安睡耶」。

· 「酣睡」：如《紅樓夢》第七十六回引作「臥榻之側，豈容他人酣睡？」

· 「旁」與「側」：清代小說《野叟曝言》用「臥榻之旁，豈容他人鼾睡」。

「臥榻之旁，豈容安睡」是這句名言的眾多變體之一，其核心思想和典故源頭，都指向宋太祖趙匡胤這句名言。

Why honest is important?

 20260920

Why honest is important?

Some people are always honest. It is not because honest can make them happy or make them rich.

For some very honest people on this planet, honest  is unconditional.

They don't need to have a reason to be honest.

I think those are the best of human beings.

To be honest can make one smarter. If someone is honest to himself,  he will reach the truth easier.  He will know what is right and what is wrong,  and he will know the road to success.   And this kind of success is real.

This is the best feature of human nature.

You have a real progress if you are honest.

Honest people are strong.

What is stupid?

 20260919

What is stupid?

Stupid is forgetting about the mind.

Anyone who do not use his mind is stupid.

For many reasons, many people are willfully hidding his real mind because of a certain kind of  interest.

Stupid is not losing the judgment about the universe or anything external. 

Lacking knowledge about the external world is not stupid.

But refusing to believe what one really sees and what one really thinks is stupid.

There has been a row about how Princess Diana had died and what King Charles had said in the news recently.

Anyone who is trying to hide the reality from himself is stupid.

What is the timing of a coming US-China conflict?

20260918

What is the timing of a coming US-China conflict?

It depends.

It depends on how fast could the Chinese culture go.

If people can learn Chinese like any other spelling language.......the correct way to say is:   if people can "use" Chinese without learning it,  then the world will be in a huge conflict at once.

And its possible.

When language can no more be a barrier between country folks, the Chinese economy will be a real threat to the US,  and all international problems would come up for a future war.

It will happen within the next 20 to 30 years.

That's why the spelling problem is so important right now.

Now the American China GDP Ratio is 30-20.

It means that the United States people are earning 30 trillions a year, but the Chinese is only 20.

There will be a 30 to 30 ratio very quickly.

No one can predict what will happen if you are not compatible to each other.

Can Chinese culture possibly spread around in the future years?

It is difficult.

Because the Chinese culture is a mind but not a hand.

Theoretically,   a mind can never separate itself from the hand.

But in fact, it is separated.

Spelling cultures are just like the hands of human.

But the Chinese culture is not spelling.

It cannot easily spread.

You need to live with the Chinese to learn Chinese.

You cannot learn Chinese like English which is easily reachable by a dictionary.

That would deter the future conflict for a few years.

And no more.
