Early cynics despised secular ideas according to their own moral principles; The cynics in the later period still despised the secular concept, but lost the moral principle of trust as the norm. Therefore, cynics in the later period generally have the idea that since there is no nobility, there is no meanness. Since it's nothing, there's nothing wrong with it. As a result of this concept, the total denial of the secular has become a total acceptance of the secular, and it is often a shameless acceptance of the worst part of the secular. As a result, cynicism becomes cynicism.
The Tao of Laozi and Zhuangzi reveals the fundamental laws of nature, while Taoism is the cultivation of personal life. These two things are completely different. Zhuangzi's way put the truth of the universe in front of people and said, you see, this is the law of the operation of heaven and earth. Can humans face it? Everything in the world is so natural, do humans need to make other creations? Therefore, it is logical to follow the crowd. Taoism has almost no such content. A promising practice is actually an act of gilding the lily beyond the natural operation of heaven and earth Although Taoism regards Laozi and Zhuangzi as masters, it has lost their essence and core, and only borrowed the details of Laozi and Zhuangzi and used them in a narrow mind and body. Taoist practice is good for the body, but it has little to do with Laozi and Zhuangzi.
