Mohism's political opinions are all aimed at saving the current disadvantages, advocating universal love, mutual non-aggression, Shang Xian and Shang Tong, and promoting the ambition of heaven and ghosts. In view of the popular conclusion of the theory of destiny at that time, Mohism also advocated the theory of destiny. On the principle of truth, we advocate empiricism.

In ethics, the basic concept of Mohism is righteousness, and the concept of righteousness comes from heaven. On this basis, the moral concept of unity of righteousness and benefit is established. Mozi established the three-table method as the principle of argumentation and reasoning, which played an important role in the history of China's philosophy and logic. Although its genre retains the form of dialogue, it has basically taken shape as an argumentative essay.
