Neil is a little girl.

She's a little girl, and her life at school is not comfortable.

Because...... She studies well.

That's right, in the average public school in the United States, it is a sin to study well, and it is a mistake to study well.

This anti-intellectual atmosphere feels a little strange, and it seems that it is not the learning culture that the world's largest country should have, but in fact it is.

In the United States, those who are excellent, those who receive excellent elite education, are basically concentrated in various private schools.

There is a clear competition for learning and all sorts of things, and the word "" is enough in public schools.

Some people may wonder, isn't the higher the education, the better?

Doesn't different people have the right to education?

Ordinary people do have the right to receive education, but if ordinary people really have a lot of knowledge and a complete set of three views, it is a very terrifying thing for the elite.

Because if you think independently, you will find that there are too many things in this country that are not logical.

And what are the problems with these illogical places?

If you work hard or not, you will really succeed in life.

Or study hard, and in the end all you get is the opportunity to be a leek.

A leek that can be anxious, in terms of income, is far less than that kind of carefree leek.

For low-end jobs, people with less education can also be more easily competent.

The cost of maintaining a relatively high level of education is also very high.

Therefore, all things considered, in the end, the United States has entered a parallel education physique.

And Neil, who studied well in public school, was a very serious sin.

Both for the elites and for the general public.

In the midst of pain and depression, she fell in love with the Internet.

Because of socializing online, she can meet a lot of friends.

It seems to be thousands of miles away on the Internet, and it is no longer a problem.

And the software she uses the most recently is a software called "Today's Headlines".

Why does she have to browse the app for hours every day?

The reason is simple.

It's because this app can give her a sense of identity.

All the news she saw on this app was saying that only learning could change her fate.

Those who don't study end up with a miserable life.

How miserable is their life?

Either they became waiters at the bottom of society, or they were only able to work for those who worked hard.

She has gained a lot in the software "Today's Headlines".

One of the biggest gains is that she knows that in this world, talents like her are the mainstream.

If not, how could most of the news she saw be such news?

Therefore, she was determined to continue to study hard.

The original strange thoughts are all gone.

Coincidentally, a skinny little boy in the same class as Neil.

He doesn't like sports, he likes punk, he likes hysterical singing.

However, in this day and age, punk seems to be no longer mainstream.

What can I do?

Skinny little Tom knew it by browsing the news on the app "Today's Headlines".

Yanlai punk has always been the mainstream, and punk has always been the most and most popular music genre.

Why aren't there any people around me who like punk?

Quite simply, it's all because they're so stupid.

"Today's Headlines" is a news software that makes almost everyone who uses this software feel that what they like is the mainstream of the world.

This halo is infinitely magnified, and even those who have to admit that they are not the center of this world because of their growth have a new feeling in their hearts.

What does it feel like?

It's that they feel that they have always been right, that they are the center of the world.

Perhaps, there is no problem for children to think that the things they like are the most important things in the world.

But the problem lies in the election of a state legislature.

The state legislator didn't know when he used the software "Today's Headlines".

What he sees on this software is not a personal identity, but a gushing public opinion.

He had never used a mobile phone before, and when he first started using Today's Headlines, it was full of different political opinions, and after two months of hard work, he found that it was as if the whole world was recognizing his work.

Therefore, he is full of confidence that he can be officially elected to the state legislature.

However, it was time to vote for the campaign. He found that he didn't know why, he had obviously made so many achievements, and even the long reports on his mobile phone were only the second-to-last votes of all the members of the parliament who ran for election.

He fell into an angry mood and thought that it was not himself who was wrong, but the world.

I am such a hard-working and excellent person, how can I be wrong?

Coincidentally, the impact of "Today's Headlines" is far more than just this one person.

Something similar to that of a state legislator has happened to a lot of people.

They feel that everything they do is the mainstream of this world. It's like a manga shonen manga.

However, try to tell them again and again that it is not, no.

They are not the mainstream of the world, they just live in their own world.

However, very few people recognize this.

At the same time, the newspapers, and the people behind them, are also feeling a violent crisis.

What kind of crisis are they feeling?

From the simplest and most fundamental point of view, how can people in this world who have not undergone higher education think about and elect leaders who can bring them a better life?

The answer is simple, through the media.

The media industry in the United States is extremely developed, from the newspaper industry, which began to take off rapidly in the twenties of the last century, to the radio and television networks that are now all over the country.

Who these media recommend, who they say is good, those ordinary people whose brains may not be much bigger than hamsters.

Will you choose a leader recommended by the media, or will you choose someone who has never heard of it?

It's like when you are on the supermarket shelf, when you choose shampoo, do you choose a brand that is always advertised on TV, even if you haven't bought it, or those small brands that are at the bottom of the shelf and have never even heard of it?

And if the previous media was just a small physical supermarket one after another.

"Today's Headlines" is a subversive online supermarket.
