Faced with the national crisis, many people desperately joined the fight against the virus for the first time. Together, they cheered for Wuhan and China. Those who have the money to contribute, and everyone is concerned that since the new crown pneumonia epidemic, many celebrities have also begun to donate money and materials, which is a good thing.
01
However, as the donation information was exposed on the Internet, some netizens began to express their opinions. For example, Deng Chao and Sun Li were forced to close Weibo comments by online violence. One Foundation announced some star donations. Sun Li and Deng Chao donated a total of 300,000 yuan, which soon became a target of public criticism.
Some netizens went to the two Weibo posts to leave a message. Some expressed disappointment, some said they wanted to take off fans, and some accused them of being "iron cock".
Due to online violence, Deng Chao and Sun Li closed their Weibo comments for several days. It wasn't until February 7 that Deng Chao updated his children's Weibo for "Come on Wuhan" and "Come on China" on Weibo.
In fact, in the past few days when Deng Chao and Sun Li were in a storm of public opinion, someone successively announced on the Internet that the two donated more than 300,000.
Sun Li privately asked a friend for help, contacted the hospital lacking supplies, and directly donated it to the hospital.
300,000, but they donated money to One Foundation.
Sun Li donated to Hanhong Foundation, the specific amount was not disclosed.
Even if someone came out and said that they had donated materials, some netizens were reluctant and thought that the words on one batch of donation boxes were too big.
After the online violence broke out, there were fans fighting for the two. Sun Li and Deng Chao have actually been doing charity, donating to different charity projects every year, but unlike some celebrities who treat charity as a gimmick, they continue to promote on social media.
With more and more news about Sun Li and Deng Chao donating supplies, the voices of abuse on the two microblogs gradually ceased.
Although star income is considerable, the donation itself is a voluntary act of one person. If you always stare at the number of star donations, charity will become a show for some stars, and even "fraudulent donations" will occur-promise A big number, but it has not been honored; or through a wave of publicity through a so-called donation "intermediary agency", the celebrity gains a good reputation, and the intermediate agency receives promotional fees, but the money is not given to those in need.

Someone asked those who blamed Sun Li and Deng Chao on the Internet, saying:
Don’t you know that others might donate money through different platforms?
Can you only donate money, not supplies? Does
have to show every stroke? Some celebrities donate some money and they advertise on their social media. On the contrary, low-key people are also subjected to online violence. Is it difficult for every celebrity to use charity to show off?
celebrities should donate or not, how much should be donated, not discussed here, this is what the celebrities themselves and their respective brokerage teams need to consider.
However, those netizens of online violence Sun Li and Deng Chao really did not expect that there is another possibility-they are doing their part through other means?
What are the psychological reasons behind this online violence?
More than a hundred years ago, a social psychologist Gustav Pangler wrote a book called "The Mob" . In this book, he clarified a very special psychological phenomenon and named it "group psychology".
Pangler said that when a person enters a group, their emotions, thinking, and behavior are very different from when they were alone.
Although he is an individual, his personal state is different from when he was really alone-his personality will disappear, IQ will decrease, and emotions will become impulsive.
In a group, people's emotions will quickly spread, especially the kind of perceptual and instinctive emotions will quickly spread, but rational and calm emotions will not work. Maybe a person is usually gentle, but after entering the group, he will become violent and vulgar.
If you have paid attention to online messages, you will find that many online messages are full of hostility and even vulgarity, but in reality, do people who leave messages really speak like this? Perhaps the complete opposite, he is likely to be polite.
Pangler believes that many people get together and are called groups. No matter who they are or what they do, they may get together for one thing. The
"group" itself is impersonal. It is like a kind of creature with its own characteristics. It has little to do with the people who make up the group.
Of course, Pangle more than a hundred years ago only thought that people would form a group only if they were “together”. He absolutely could not have imagined that more than a hundred years later, people do not need to actually meet in physical space. This kind of thing is called the Internet, which allows people to gather in virtual space and form a more influential group.

Pang Le said that the group lacks the ability to distinguish, it is difficult to judge the authenticity of a matter, and some opinions and rumors that cannot withstand scrutiny can be easily spread among the group. The conclusion of
was actually proved during the epidemic. After the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia, what spreads fastest? Everyone should feel deeply about
, is not a virus, but a rumor. How many rumors have you heard since the outbreak of
? I'm afraid this can no longer be counted with one hand. How many people were arrested by the public security organs for spreading rumors? You should see a lot of this on the Internet.
At the beginning of the epidemic, some people said that domestic pets spread the virus.
As a result, many people threw their kittens out of the window to death, and others threw their puppies down from a high building, smashing a car parked downstairs. If there are pedestrians downstairs, the consequences are really unimaginable...
Soon, some experts refuted the rumor that pets do not spread the new crown pneumonia virus.
However, there are rumors that keeping cats can prevent viruses. As a result, it is difficult to find a cat in a pet shop.
Some rumors are even more bizarre-such as salt water gargle to prevent viruses, smoking and drinking to prevent viruses, fireworks to curb respiratory diseases, heating and air conditioning to prevent viruses, and small grinding oil drops in the nostrils to block all flu and plague... ...
These rumors have spread so widely that the People's Daily has to publish articles specifically to refute them.
The scariest thing is that there are rumors that Academician Zhong Nanshan has contracted new coronary pneumonia.
Although all the people who worked with Academician Zhong Nanshan were refuting the rumors, the rumors remained "strong" until Zhong Nanshan himself was interviewed by the media before it subsided.

If you are not in a "group", when you may hear some rumors, even if you don't sneer at it, you will at least doubt it and look for evidence.
However, after entering the group, many people have lost the ability to verify. Not only will they receive all orders, they may also become part of the spread.
Someone only glanced at the money Sun Li and Deng Chao donated to One Foundation, and quickly ran to the two of them on Weibo to scold them, and some even left a message saying:I just want to see you being scolded.
Once a person enters a group, more or less "group psychology" will appear-impulsive, irrational, crowded, loss of personality and judgment.
Due to the epidemic, many people can only stay at home most of the time, and the time spent on mobile phones may be much longer than in the past. Because everyone is afraid of the new coronavirus, it is easy to form various groups.
Think about a very important ability. Please be rational during the epidemic. Before expressing your opinion, think about how much accurate information you have obtained. If you just listen to someone say a few words, don’t rush to join the "group carnival". Let the bullet fly for a while .
I just want to say: 2020 is coming, I advise you, and please be kind!
