西方人之所以把处于封建时期的中世纪称为“黑暗时代”,原因恐怕主要在于封建统治阶级对黎民百姓的残酷剥削与压迫.封建统治阶级对黎民百姓残酷剥削的根源又何在呢?原因可以列举很多:统治阶级脱离了生产,但他们不能喝西北风过日子,他们也要消费,而且其消费的水平还务必要高于平民百姓——方显其尊与贵的地位,否则谁还会争着侪身统治阶级行列;说到底统治者们也是人,是人就不免七情六欲,在物欲横流的社会,物欲当推诸欲之首,何况统治阶级往往受有聚财之授权,所以统治者要满足个人的物欲不过是顺手牵羊之便. The reason why Westerners call the Middle Ages in the feudal period the “dark ages” probably lies mainly in the cruel exploitation and oppression of the people of Lebanon by the feudal ruling class. What is the root cause of the brutal exploitation of the people of Lebanon by the feudal ruling class? A lot: The ruling classes are out of production, but they can not afford to drink northwestern winds, they also consume, and the level of their consumption must also be higher than that of ordinary people - to show their respect and dignity, or who will fight In the final analysis, the rulers are also human beings, people are infatuated with desires. In a materialistic society, materialism should be the first to be pursued. Moreover, the ruling class is often subject to the power of collecting wealth, so the rulers should satisfy themselves Personal materialism is nothing more than a hand-wringing.
