Wandering Spaceship in Deep Space Chapter 543: Radicals and conservatives
The latest website: There are a large number of retired people and a small number of people who have been added, but the total project volume has hardly changed. The process of compressing the population itself is so painful.
Zhou Hua glanced at the TV, and then said: "Change the channel, the radicals and conservatives have quarreled again."
"How do you say? What new plans does the radicals have?" Wang Haifeng asked after eating two peanuts.
The times are changing, and human society is also changing.
According to the conventional sense, conservatives are the forces that have been extended from the original new human government.
They firmly believe that humans need to accomplish this big goal. The predecessors have worked hard for 800 years, and it will be completed in 600 years. How can we give up halfway?
This force has been firmly pushing the goal forward, including the extraordinary who returned from the virtual world, who are basically members of the conservatives, even if this kind of advancement is breeding people’s grievances and slowly consuming the credibility of the entire government ... As long as this plan is completed, all contradictions can be resolved.
The radicals are currently the most emerging political force. They are dissatisfied with the current status of human civilization and tried to initiate a series of internal reforms. The first thing to do is to improve the happiness of the people.
At present, in order to accomplish this big goal, most of the productivity of the entire civilization has been spent, and the quality of life has declined, and the people have complained. Some people even choose to shorten their lifespan, retire early, and enter the virtual space. This is definitely not a normal behavior!
Of course, the radicals also believe that the big goal must be achieved. If you don't complete it, I'm sorry for your ancestors, and you will also be at odds with the Tussian civilization. But how to do it well and quickly is another question.
"...it is immoral and inhumane to kidnap one's entire life on the wheels of civilization!"
Zhou Hua imitated the empty political slogans of the radical leader while laughing.
"Humans need freedom, the right to freely choose their own work..."
"Students should not become precise screws after graduation!"
"The current brainwashing education method requires vigorous reform."
People who are a little bit older know that this kind of slogan is difficult to achieve, and it is very simple to shout a slogan. It's beautiful, but how do you really realize it?
Wang Haifeng said: "You are wrong. More people will not think about whether this series of slogans are naive and whether they can be completed. They only care about the slogans of these slogans and whether they can satisfy their hearts. The willingness of the office."
Human beings actually have a strong tendency, that is, they have their own standpoint.
If a certain thing has its own position, even if it is wrong, people will choose to support it.
On the contrary, if the position of a certain thing is not on one's side, even if it conforms to the objective facts, people will spurn it.
The **** is crooked, everything looks crooked.
Although the citizens of the new human civilization have been well educated, there is no fundamental change in human nature. The current public grievances are gradually accumulating, and the stance of the people is slowly changing.
Politics emphasizes management by wearing a hat. What does it mean? In other words, people have to wear a high hat to gain a sense of superiority on a psychological level.
The new human civilization has witnessed many stories in history, the decline of earth civilization, and various low-level civilizations that could not be developed.
Compared with this kind of civilization, people have a sense of moral superiority in their hearts.
In order to maintain this sense of superiority, I don’t mind sacrificing some self-interest and pursuing "civilization progress", which is the goal pursued by the new civilization school.
But now? Working here in the dark, day and night, the mainstream trend of thought is slowly changing, and this top hat is about to fall off.
Life is unsatisfactory, at least not so satisfactory compared with the past, not as expected... Then people need to vent.
The easiest way to vent your emotions is to scold the government for inaction. If you change to another government, everything will get better...
This has never changed for tens of thousands of years. People feel that as long as they take the lead, they can definitely be better than they are now.
"Does it sound ridiculous? We are all in the interstellar age, and it is the same."
Wang Haifeng sighed, "I have been reading history books recently and discovered some very interesting things. In the 21st century, there was a small country with frequent regime changes and people often marched in the streets. You know they took to the streets. The reason for the parade?"
Zhou Huadao: "The economy is not good."
"Wrong, they want more social benefits!"
Zhou Hua wondered: "Isn't social welfare just an economic problem?"
Wang Haifeng smiled and said: "No, no, economic issues, they don't think about it... They just want more social welfare. Whoever gives them social welfare, they will vote."
"Then what?"
"Of course the government changed. The old government was ousted because the new government promised to increase social welfare."
"After changing the government, I found that there was no money at all. Unless we borrowed money to issue welfare, we could not do it at all. The promise was not fulfilled, so the people rioted and continued to change the government."
The current government is also facing the same problem. In fact, a series of living resources such as food, clothing, housing and transportation are very abundant, but people are still not satisfied.
People want more rest time. This wish cannot be said to be unreasonable, but at this point in time...
Similarly, the series of slogans put forward by radicals are indeed inflammatory to a certain extent. There are many young people who respond. They don't care much about the process of realization, they only care about better results.
Even if the result is likely to be illusory and impossible, they will still believe it.
"With the passing of the old people in the past, the aging of people has become more and more stressful at work. The political power of radical factions has gradually risen. It is no longer the same as before. A few decades ago, it was just It's just drizzle."
"Social changes are really complicated." Wang Haifeng shook his head and ate another peanut. "However, many historians of new civilizations have foreseen this problem hundreds of years ago. It's awesome."
"But they did not propose a solution. Perhaps there is no solution in itself. It can only be solved by enduring."
"Or...Actually, there are some solutions, but these solutions are not easy to use and will cause greater trouble?"
He doesn't have much interest in radicals or conservatives, but he also knows that there must be no internal chaos at this moment.
There is a premise: the entire major project plan cannot be abandoned.
Don't watch the noisy TV shows, most citizens are silent, relying on social inertia, and will continue to carry on the work at hand.
The strength of the radicals is far from enough to overthrow the rule of the conservatives, and even they themselves dare not give up this plan and can only play some side-balls.
The new humans will hold talks with the Tuss civilization every year to announce the construction of the planetary engine of this civilization and supervise each other. You can know how much work you have done and how much driving force each engine provides. You can use professional instruments to know at a glance. Both parties must speak frankly.
However, after one or two hundred years of "honeymoon period", friction has gradually increased. Because of the construction of planetary engines, there will always be some mistakes.
If you make mistakes, you must condemn each other and create contradictions.
Fifty-three years ago, a planetary engine of the New Mankind failed and went out for 33 days, causing the planet's direction to deviate by zero and three milliseconds!
So the human side was frantically criticized and condemned by the Tuss at the year-end meeting, as if the whole plan was about to fail.
Of course, the Toss have also made such mistakes and have been criticized by the human side.
In short, every time both parties make a mistake, the fault tolerance rate becomes lower. This is just a contradiction caused by the flameout. If the two planets collide due to the delay of the construction period and the entire plan fails, the two sides must go to war directly!
"So, the radicals also know that they have a hard time. They really fight and die. They can't afford it. This plan must be continued."
Zhou Hua also picked up a wine glass and took a sip: "Their approach is too idealistic. But it sounds like people’s lives are indeed better than they are now..."
"In the current situation where there is no way to significantly improve technology, the best way is to expand the population and reduce aging. As long as the population expands and there are more things that can be done, productivity will naturally increase."
"If productivity is increased, working hours can be strictly controlled, and people's happiness can be improved."
"Expand the population?" Wang Haifeng mocked: "At that time, the spacecraft in the interstellar trading market can't hold so many people. Who will stay here and die with the neutron stars? Or pack people into virtual space and take them away?"
"Yes, they just want to put people in the virtual space and take away the body, but the old government disagrees, resolutely disagrees, and basically they are opposed to it."
"Why disagree?"
"They said that the laws related to virtual world technology are the key constitution of mankind. They are not a last resort and cannot be touched."
"The radicals feel that this kind of rules are too rigid, even if it is the constitution, it is specified by people, and it can be amended. It is a critical moment. What if it is amended?"
The two also had differences at this time. Wang Haifeng felt that the Constitution could not be changed at will, but Zhou Hua felt that it was feasible.
One person can be sensible, ten people’s disagreement ~ IndoMTL.com~ can only be barely wise, a thousand people, even wise, can’t do it. Everyone has their own ideas and can only use general The values of the world come to be constrained.
What about a civilization? If there are too many people, no one can persuade anyone, and you will feel that certain inexplicable methods have become good ones.
"Dip!" Suddenly, there was a harsh scream from the communicator.
The two people who were arguing about it looked down. It was not a big deal. It was because a machine broke down and the intelligent robot couldn't handle it, so it needs to be handled manually.
"Let me go, I won't quarrel with you anymore."
"Drink some wine, can it work?" Zhou Hua said with a smile.
"Of course!" Wang Haifeng waved his hand, put on his power armor again, and sank into the dark ground.
