The prevalence of "involution" vocabulary appears to be a linguistic and cultural phenomenon, but in essence, it is labor, reflecting the factors of differentiation between labor and human beings. Labor force becoming a commodity is the starting point for internalization and alienation of labor; The concept of fetishism has expanded the alienated nature of "involution"; Private ownership indicates that in capitalist society, it is impossible to escape the essence of "involution" of alienated labor, while socialism has the social foundation to abandon the essence of "involution" of alienated labor, and thus achieve the liberation of labor. Therefore, in the primary stage of socialism, it is necessary to guide people to establish a correct view of labor, achieve scientific labor and orderly competition, and continue to adhere to the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics and firmly adhere to the belief in communism; Restore the essence of fetishism, transcend the pursuit of things, and establish a value system for comprehensive personal development; Pay attention to the identity between people, value the construction of social relationships and the protection of the natural environment, and achieve common progress among individuals, society, and nature.
