In a group fight, it's fine to just stand and watch. There is absolutely no need or possibility to consider who is right or wrong.

The most pathetic onlooker in Lu Xun's writings is me. I have witnessed countless fights without ever attempting to mediate or help. Whether it's a quarrel with clothes in disarray, or an exhilarating group fight that goes on for miles until the Yellow River, I only engage my brain after the exciting climax to think about it or, shamelessly, offer some critique. Like Aunt Lu Xun, I am also someone who slaps others while wagging my tail to please them and not forgetting to throw a couple of slaps at myself, so I too have accumulated a bellyful of principles. To avoid falling into the habitual tone of criticism, I'll start by incapacitating myself first.
