The author wrote this article to "remember" the dead, but since it is "remembering", the author said it was "forgetting". At the beginning of the article, the author said that "grief and indignation have been attacking my mind for two years and have never stopped", so I want to "get rid of sadness", which means that the author doesn't want to be immersed in sadness all the time.

The so-called "forgetting" is to "get rid of" the heavy burden of grief, that is, we should not just "remember" the dead with grief, but use another way: turn grief into strength and "remember" the dead with battle. The two meanings of the title seem to be contradictory, which shows the author's deep indignation and tenacious fighting spirit.
