Love is better than hate. 爱胜于恨

Can't argue with this. The Beatles made of career on it.

Real is better than fake 真实胜过虚假

OK. But sometimes fake is not bad, and much cheaper.

Beautiful is better than ugly. 美丽胜于丑陋

All other things remaining equal, this is true.

Friendly is better than aggressive. 友善胜于好斗

Hmmm. During a defensive counter-punch? An aggressive defensive counter-punch would be more appropriate.

Sound is better than reticence. 发声胜于缄默

Is this official state policy on all topics? Let's make it a goal.

Equality is better than disparity. 平等胜于差异

True, but let's allow those Olympic athletes to continue on. They're fun to watch.

Unease is better than comfort. 忧患胜于安乐

I can see where this has it's truth, but let's set aside at least a few hours a day where we forget about this.

Pursue is better than abide. 追求胜于遵守

This gets at the core of innovation. And a restraining order for stalking.

Respect is better than understand. 尊重胜于理解

I'm having some trouble with this one. If it means approach everyone and everything with respect in order to understand them, I get it, but it if means concede to elders even if you don't understand, I'll take a pass.

Understand is better than ignorance. 理解胜于无知

I can come up with some really out-there scenarios where this would not be true, this one is generally true.

Ignorance is better than prejudice. 无知胜于偏见

They can both result in some reprehensible behavior, but you're going to forgive the ignorant one easier than the prejudice one, so this one holds a lot of truth.

Every voice counts. 每个声音都很重要

Every voice deserves to be heard and should be taken into consideration. But have you heard what some of those voices are saying? I like the sentiment.

Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules. 特例也不可违背这些规则

Unless you have to jaywalk to pull the lever to divert the trolley from hitting the crowd, so...no. Rules each have a weighting that must be considered, because sometimes they are at odds with each other.

Injustices should never pass silently. 不公正绝不能无声无息地过去

Another one I can get fully behind.

Unless, no unless. 没有例外

OK. Someone's going to have to do something about all those Olympians who are violating the disparity of physical ability.

nice, nice to see you read this and made comments on each bullet. I quote this from WKFG (chinese meaning "I have nothing to say" or "I'd keep slience" 无可奉告 ), it was a total anonymous forum created by several college students in China and it was widely spread in several days. You don't need to register and they wanted to create a place where every voice can be heard and ppl may support with each others instead of engaging in a war of words (like Elon and Zuckerberg in twitter, LOL). But it was quickly shut down due to numerous reasons.

I quoted it here then.
