Chapter 444 Relax

Ma Lu said, "You know, I once met a man who was a sociologist, but his brain was a little abnormal. He wanted to create a world where everyone was equal and friendly.

“But the problem is that the world itself is a piece of five-nut mooncake that has been left for 800 years and has grown green hair. You can’t remove the green hair because it is part of the mooncake and cannot be divided.

"It's the same with the internet. If you pay attention to it, it's becoming more and more violent and divided, just like our world. Even if you do nothing online, you'll be attacked because of your gender or because you're from a different province or like different things.

"Cyberbullying is nothing new. Every year, more and more people become victims of cyberbullying. But even if the government intervenes, there is no good way to deal with this kind of thing.

"Catching a few typical cases may be helpful at the time, but it cannot change the trend. This is the result of many factors, including changes in the world economy, geopolitics, and the increasingly fast pace of life."

“So I think for ordinary people, it doesn’t make much sense to worry about how to make the Internet more peaceful and friendly. All you can do is adjust your own mood.

"If you see a comment online that really annoys you, just respond to it. If you want to judge someone based on a few words, go ahead and judge them, because you will be judged out of context anyway. Well, that's fair in a sense, right?

"From billionaires to ordinary people, everyone is equally subject to rumors and cyberbullying."

"But if that happens, won't the entire Internet be filled with quarrels?" Yi Xia Xia widened her eyes, unable to understand.

"Believe me, even if you choose to be a good person, there will definitely be no fewer quarrels on the Internet."

Ma Lu said, "You shouldn't be too hard on yourself. As long as the law allows, it's not a big deal to brush up your mood points online."

“Brother Ma, are you a pessimist?”

Malu shrugged. "You're not the first person to say that, but on the contrary, I'm a very optimistic person. I'm the kind of person who would still happily live today if the world were to end tomorrow, because I won't waste my energy on things that I can't change."

“Most of human suffering comes from being too critical of ourselves and the world.”

"You always want yourself and the world to be better, so it's easy to get frustrated and disappointed because you and the world are not good enough."

“But you have to understand that neither humans nor the world can avoid making mistakes.

“Like I said before, this world is a giant hairy five-nut mooncake, but apart from those annoying green hairs, hey, don’t forget that it is also a mooncake with delicious crispy crust. Even if you don’t like all the five nuts, there are always one or two nuts that you like, and that’s enough.

"The Internet is the same. In addition to the increasing opposition and division, all kinds of abuse and messy rumors, there are also some very powerful developers who share their own cool mods and gadgets. There are also enthusiastic netizens who answer your questions and teach you how to repair your washing machine and air conditioner.

“As a creator, it is inevitable for the singer you mentioned who died of depression to be criticized and misunderstood. But apart from those accusations and assumptions, he must have received a lot of praise and genuine love from people after he became a singer.

"These compliments and love must have supported him on the path of being a singer for a long time. So if he were to choose again, he would probably still choose to be a singer." "After all, it is inevitable that people will be scolded while alive, scolded by netizens, scolded by superiors, scolded by family members. Some people will use these scoldings as motivation to spur themselves forward, but people's psychological endurance has a limit after all.

"If you exceed the limit, bad things will happen, especially for people who already have mental illness or feel that they are in a bad mood for a long time.

“The most important thing for you is not to reflect and correct yourself, but to find a way to block out those voices from the outside world, reduce the pressure you are under, and stop letting those insults hurt you.

"If you really feel pain about it, it will only make those who scold you happy because they have really attacked you, especially don't do anything extreme.

"Even if you were slandered and framed, choosing to commit suicide would not make those bastards feel the slightest bit of guilt. Believe me, most people on the Internet just make a few comments and vent their emotions. They don't really care how many bowls of noodles Liuzi ate."

"I... can't fully understand it, but after listening to your words, I do feel a lot better. I don't feel so sad anymore." Yi Xia Xia said.

"If you lower your moral sense a little and occasionally give up, your life will be much happier." Malu said, "The stew is getting cold, so eat it quickly."

"Hmm..." Yi Xia Xia picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of wolf meat from the bowl, put it to her mouth, and stopped again, "Brother Ma, thank you for being willing to chat with me and enlighten me."

"You're welcome. Meeting is fate. Besides, you're a nice person," Malu said. "Although I don't mind arguing with people, and I even outsourced my account for that purpose, it's undeniable that it's more comfortable to be with people of high quality."

"But I have high quality only because of my good family background. Everyone I have come into contact with since I was a child has been very polite to me. If it weren't for my parents, I might be worse than ordinary people." Yi Xiaxia said.

"Hey, when the granaries are full, people will know etiquette, and when they have enough food and clothing, they will know honor and disgrace. This is not something to be ashamed of." Malu said, "Don't listen to the nonsense of those big haters. No matter what the reason is, it was not easy for you to persist in not hating others in the previous game."

"Yeah." Yi Xia Xia also nodded heavily, as if to encourage herself. Just as Malu said, she tried to put other people's opinions behind her, and then she started to eat the meat in the bowl.

As soon as he took a bite, he was shocked. "Oh my god, this is so delicious! Did you make this, Brother Ma?"

"No, it was made by Lao Wang. He is my roommate and partner, and also the chef of the restaurant."

"What's the name of your restaurant?" Yi Xia Xia was so preoccupied with things when she walked in that she didn't bother to look at the sign at the door.

"The Infinite Canteen of the Universe."

"Ah, so this is the Infinite Universe Cafeteria? I heard from my classmates that there is a small restaurant that sells very expensive food, but there is always a very long line in front of the door every day. At that time, I thought the food here must be delicious. Unexpectedly, it tastes a hundred times better than I imagined."
