Features: The real world has its own set of problems, and it is inevitable that it has its own flaws. Therefore, the real world must always be a mixture and interweaving of good and bad, virtue and vice. If people blindly pursue a pure and perfect ideal, the result can only be a deceptive and misleading doctrine that leads people astray and breeds tyranny and corruption. The French Revolution of 1789 was a landmark event in world history. It was somewhat similar to the October Revolution in Russia at the beginning of the 20th century, almost forcing every intellectual of the time to take a stance in its face. The following year, Burke's magnum opus in his later years, Reflections on the Revolution in France, was published. In the book, he fiercely attacked the principles of the French Revolution with passionate and vigorous writing.
