#In rural areas, the topic of family disconnection, which has been on the hot search list, has continued to generate hot debate. According to the article, more and more rural people born in the 1980s and 1990s are implementing the behavior of "breaking off relatives" in the process of rural migration, and going out of the countryside from two dimensions of physical space and spiritual space.

Kiss, just break it? Blood relationship changes as you say? Is the so-called act of breaking off relatives an individual phenomenon or a common phenomenon? Is it emotional or serious? Is it not objective to "upgrade" what was originally just an emotional catharsis, some petty complaints, and some localized complaints to a hot topic that disturbs people?

In addition to "the family as a unit of marriage break quietly appeared in rural areas", there are still some topics that are puzzling and even shocking. For example, "why are parents so annoying", "Chinese suffocating mothers", "30 year old people can't get married and go crazy into mental hospitals"... The common point of such issues is that they summarize the overall situation by taking one part as a whole, using extreme cases to attract attention in a sensational way.

In real life, are there any annoying parents? Are some mothers suffocating? The answer is possible. However, once "Chinese style" is used to cover "suffocating mothers" and "why parents are so annoying" is used to point fingers at parents all over the world, it is neither rigorous nor malicious.

For the so-called "Chinese suffocating mother", some netizens said that adding the word "Chinese", it seems like Chinese families and Chinese parents are the same. It is obviously not advisable to say so.

It is true that the Spring Festival is the most grand and festive traditional festival of the Chinese nation. Whether a family eats the New Year's Eve dinner or stays up for the New Year, they enjoy the happiness of their family and the beauty of life, pass on the happiness of family reunion and welcome the new and go to the future. It should be said that this is the most simple emotional consensus of the Chinese people, the public order and good customs that everyone maintains together, and also the value recognition that reaches the hearts of the people.

In this context, the concoction of "Chinese suffocating mother", "Why parents are so annoying", "The family as a unit of divorce" and other issues in rural areas quietly appear, which is both arbitrary and gives people a sense of doing nothing. It can be said that this is making a mountain out of a molehill, is also sensationalism, is another example of chasing sick traffic.

Not long ago, the Central Cyberspace Office carried out a month long special action of "Qinglang · 2024 Spring Festival Cyber Environment Renovation", focusing on six prominent cyber ecological problems, such as the promotion of novelty hunting and violation of public order and good customs. Among them, spreading network anger and inciting group opposition; It also includes fabricating false content in the form of year-end inventory, homecoming information, etc., to exaggerate extreme emotions; Fiction of conflicts between husband and wife, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, teachers and students, etc., win traffic without bottom line, and convey bad values.

It should be said that both online platforms and media (We Media) accounts need to suppress the impulse of sensationalism, refuse to set issues that are easy to tear up consensus, let alone spread network anger and incite group opposition for traffic, fabricate untrue content, play up extreme emotions, deliberately magnify conflicts and split people's minds with extreme plots.

These practices have caused great harm. Its harm lies not only in making logical mistakes and harming public ethics, but also in transmitting bad values and extreme emotions to the public. If it is allowed to develop, it will not only poison the network ecology, but also corrupt the people of the world.

The Central Cyberspace Office proposed that local cyber information departments and website platforms should strengthen the inspection of key links to ensure that the first screen of the home page, hot search lists, hot topics, hot recommendations, PUSH pop ups, information flows, comments and other links are ecologically sound. For each platform, it is particularly necessary to hold the boundary and resist the temptation of traffic, instead of letting the issue go, let alone going bareback and setting up the issue. Troubleshooting problems, plugging loopholes, and not disturbing sick topics can make cyberspace clearer.
