What thoughts did Lu Xun's Kong Yiji reflect?

Kong Yiji's tragic fate is not only the result of the whole social environment, but also his poor and ridiculous personality characteristics: his "standing and drinking" has shown that he is not qualified to walk into the hotel and "sit and drink" like those rich people wearing long gowns, and can only associate with the "short clothes gang"; But he always refused to take off the dirty and torn gown, which seemed to have been mended and washed for more than ten years, showing how obsessed he was with his illusory "master" identity. His way of speaking, the fallacy that "stealing books is not stealing" and the intoxicated way of showing off "knowledge" to "me" are enough to show his almost crazy persistence and obsession with his academic identity. For Kong Yiji, the formation of this value concept is that "Rome was not built in a day". After decades of education, the concept of "everything is inferior, and reading is high" has already penetrated into Kong Yiji's heart. However, Kong Yiji is not so lucky as Ding. After reading sage books all his life, he doesn't even have a scholar, which determines that he can only struggle at the bottom of society. However, the long-term study hard for the imperial examination made him helpless. Whether Kong Yiji realized it or not, he actually lost the capital and qualification to join the "short coat gang" and became the object of contempt and ridicule. And the more he hit a wall repeatedly in real life, the more he was teased and ridiculed, the more he longed for psychological support and balance in the fantasy of "being superior". This is actually a vicious circle: Kong Yiji's "superior" fantasy is just like Ah Q's "spiritual victory law". The more he indulges in it, the more likely he is to lose the ability to fight against society and life, and the easier it is to be thrown into the bottom of society. But the "superior" method of spiritual victory is precisely the only spiritual refuge for Ah Q and Kong Yiji. -In fact, as long as Kong Yiji is a little rational, he can't help but realize the hypocrisy and deception of his own set of values and his tragic real situation, but he is used to hiding in the false and fragile "spiritual victory law" like smoking opium to cover the external wind and rain.
