First, truth does not need to be tested, and it is impossible to test it. It can only be demonstrated theoretically. To test with practice, one is a cost issue, and the other is a timeliness issue. For example, it is true that the countryside encircles the cities in Mao Zedong Thought, but if you use practice to test it, you must have another Chinese revolution. Is this possible? Some insignificant truths can be tested through practice, but the conclusions can only be used as a reference. After all, time and space have changed, and even the characters at the time have changed. For example, if you use practice to test the Pythagorean theorem, how many precision instruments are needed to measure it, and the measurement results still have errors, and you still cannot determine the true nature of the Pythagorean theorem. On the contrary, if you use theory to prove it, then it is absolutely true. exact truth.
Second, for example, the collectivization roads in Nanjie Village and Huaxi Village were developed by a few people such as Mao Zedong, and the majority of people did not want to take the road in Xiaogang Village. This is obviously the truth. In the hands of a few in Huaxi Village and Nanjie Village, the majority insist on the fallacious rural production responsibility system in Xiaogang Village. More than 30 years of practice have proven that the rural household-by-household production responsibility system is a fallacy rather than the truth. However, people from the central to local governments, both officials and citizens, still cling to the fallacy. It shows that the truth is still in the hands of a few people.
Third, of course, if the media is free, the truth must be in the hands of the majority of people, because in that case, people can know the truth, people can communicate saturated, thoughts can be truly liberated, and cognitive abilities can be improved Only by truly improving will you not be kept in the dark. Only then can we eliminate the false and preserve the true. For example, 99.99% of today's officials are corrupt. Corrupt officials themselves know it, and so do all the people. This is the most typical example of the truth being in the hands of the majority. No one refuses to admit it in their hearts. It's just that the media doesn't say so, and the officials themselves don't. That said, they actually know it best in their hearts.
