From Ah Q's point of view, a good mentality does not necessarily mean a strong mental quality

His sadness is not mainly in the deprivation of material living conditions, but in the distortion of his spiritual life. He was pressed at the bottom of life, and anyone could bully him, but he didn't care, and often seemed to be very proud. Obviously he was beaten, but he thought: This is the son beating the father. His life is a history of blood and tears of humiliation.

This ability is -- excellent psychological quality, self-confidence, strength, courage, and motivation are what he lacks. He is a manifestation of self-deception, arrogance, and self-indulgence. He is afraid to face reality and uses false victory to practice self-comfort in spirit.
In fact, the spirit of Ah Q has such shadows everywhere in our lives. Some people see the success of others and think that they are better than others.
