>>> > What is the collective unconscious <<<
The term "collective unconscious" first came from psychology. It is a term used by the Swiss psychologist Jung to analyze psychology. It means the universal human spirit that accumulates in the deepest layers of the psyche from countless experiences of the same type that are genetically preserved. It is a genetic predisposition to form mythic themes of human thought. These ideas are variable, but still possess its basic model.
It has been said that chasing trends is a manifestation of the collective unconscious; it has been said that the behaviors of the mind that are taken for granted are a manifestation of the collective unconscious, because we have never thought about why we are doing it but have always been convinced that we are making a difference.

>>> an example <<<
Say,
high school arts and sciences class, you think you are good at arts, but the teacher said, science majors, the University of good, so you chose science.
Fill in the time, family members said, economics is popular, the future good job, you fill in the Chinese Department of the future no food, so, learn the economy. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a new one, and you'll be able to do that.
Near graduation, everyone is going out to find an internship.
All of my family members say that joining the party will help them in the future, so I'm going to apply for it, right?
All of my roommates are looking for boyfriends and girlfriends, so why don't I get one?
Almost 30 years old, relatives at home said, it's time to start a family, so I went on a blind date.
With the opening of the second child, they all said, I'm still young, I should have another one, or else the older child is more lonely. It seemed to make sense, so I had to go through the pain of getting pregnant again.
Stories like this go on all the time.

>>> Subconscious Obedience <<<
It's important to note that the protagonists of the stories didn't see anything wrong with it. After all, everyone has come that way. This elder experience often begins with 'I'm doing this for your own good' and ends with 'If you don't listen, you'll regret it'. It's as if we're being bundled along, and what's even more frightening is that we ourselves aren't able to find a better path than the one we're listening to. Many people say that Lu Xun's Sisterhood of the Xianglin is a victim of the collective unconscious of feudal society.
The power of the collective unconscious lies in the fact that it is an unconscious, subconscious belief. There is no reason to believe.
It is the same kind of experience that humans have inherited for generations.

>>> jump out <<<
I've also seen a lot of people, trying to jump out of this narrow collective unconscious. Some people in the upward stage of their career resolutely
resigned to go to a famous school for further study; some people jumped ship to do the work that they really like; some people borrowed money to study abroad ......
What they do is just jumping out of the existing established life, and do not want to finish this life under the collective unconsciousness. After all, not everyone has the courage to give up what they have and go to another unfamiliar place to start over. Therefore, those who do not move in place, only on the side of the cynical, saying that these are not still going to go back to China to find a job is not to get married and have a baby, what is the use of going abroad. I admire those who jumped out, they are away from the narrow and utilitarian values. In just a good age, go to see, the original really people living their own life ah, originally, the outside world is so wide.
Even if we end up going to square dance, I hope that I can be a little old lady who has seen the desert rainstorms, seen the sea kiss the sharks, and seen the dusk chasing the dawn to understand life.
