Not long ago, a famous blogger from China posted a photo intended to entertain her fans, but unexpectedly stirred up public opinion.
Using “fear of dirt” to grant oneself privileges
From the photo, it can be seen that the girl is beautifully dressed, holding an umbrella to shield herself from the rain, smiling brightly, sitting in a wheelchair. Behind her is a young man holding an umbrella in one hand and pushing the wheelchair for the female blogger with the other.
The post included the content: “The dirtiest part of the body is the feet. Every time it rains, wearing flip-flops is very tiring. Then my boyfriend bought me a wheelchair to push around, so I can wear shoes even in the rain.”
While it’s not unusual for social media bloggers to do “outlandish” things to gain fame.
But I want to ask, is there really someone who would spend money on a wheelchair just to keep their feet from getting wet?
If you’re afraid of getting wet, why go out shopping? Wouldn’t it be simpler to stay at home?
Many netizens could only “stay silent”:
“Does this girl really think she is a princess? Doing something ridiculous and posting it online.”
“Does she have a problem with her mind? For those who are not able-bodied, sitting in a wheelchair is not something to smile about like that.”
Indeed! Although the act of going out in a wheelchair to avoid the rain is the girl’s freedom, the way she presents it on social media has touched many people who “are required to sit in a wheelchair”.
However, this is not the first time this female blogger has shown her “fear of dirt” excessively.
Previously, this girl had also posted a photo sitting with her shoes on the chair in a convenience store, striking a seductive pose while eating and taking pictures.
Indeed! This girl is just an example of a group of people “lacking awareness”, granting themselves superior privileges in society.
Although she is not young, her mind and way of thinking seem to be stuck at the level of a child. They consider themselves the center of the universe, unaware of the needs of others, lacking community awareness and proper cultural norms.
Yet, these people become famous on social media, creating trends and leading public opinion, forming movements that many young people follow.
Is it necessary to risk danger to chase trends?
Recently, another “mindless” trend has spread across social media platforms in China.
Girls dressed in JK (Japanese schoolgirl uniforms) lie down on pedestrian crosswalks, ignoring the gazes and dangers just to take photos based on the idea of “A sudden accident involving a schoolgirl”.
Consequently, many bloggers are rushing to the streets for photos, most of whom are still students.
Did you see the two girls in Ha Yuan (Guangdong, China) lying across the street despite the traffic?
Sometimes standing, sometimes sitting, and even lying directly on the road as if it were their bedroom.
Many cars honked to remind them, but these two girls still did not realize that what they were doing was obstructing traffic and endangering their lives.
Many netizens have spoken out to criticize:
“If an accident happens, they will blame the driver. These people don’t know where to get an education, but their awareness is extremely poor. It’s true that not every educated person knows how to use their brain to think and act.”
In order to be famous on social media or even just to satisfy their vanity, many people have recklessly broken ethical and legal principles. If consequences arise, they may not be able to bear them.
“Stay grounded in an unstable era”
This world doesn’t revolve around you; no one is responsible for cleaning up the mess of your childishness and selfishness.
To stand out in the online world, you must also think correctly, act appropriately, and most importantly, not impact others negatively.
The essence of becoming famous on social media is to attract attention. So, if you do things that harm others, who would willingly like and follow you?
These harmful trends are ruining an entire community, especially the youth, nurturing people who lack awareness and only think of themselves.
A very good saying: “The limits of this society are continuously being broken. As long as you benefit, others must become the stepping stones for you, nothing more, nothing less.”
In today’s age, food videos and trivial antics, even kneeling on the ground to learn how to bark like a dog, attract large crowds and applause.
“Fear of dirt” has become an excuse for inappropriate behavior. Taking photos on crosswalks has led many to imitate it.
Perhaps in the future, such trends will increase and become even more incomprehensible. But I hope you still maintain your own standards and limits, being a truly mature person in this unstable society.
