172 Two people's brain-burning speeches

Li Junming took a light breath when he said this, grabbed the drink bottle next to him and took a sip of the drink before continuing:

"That's right, Elder Sun's words just now really reminded me that even if we have a crossing advantage, and this advantage can be maintained for a long enough time, in the end, because all kinds of contradictions are not alleviated, and the grievances reach a critical point, violent internal conflicts will erupt.

In the end, it will cause a great internal strife and collapse within us, and the society we have built will also regress, and perhaps the achievements of our difficult development will be destroyed once again!

Ladies and gentlemen, this is very similar to the cycle of the rise and fall of human history, although human civilization will start again from the ruins, but for such a destructive historical cycle, we do not want to see it, because it shows that we have not learned historical experience and lessons at all, and we have been blind in life!

Therefore, even if it is only for the sake of the future that we can see, and for the sake of our children and grandchildren, we must firmly establish the most important principle of 'all men are created equal' in the society we build, because this is the prerequisite for true happiness for us and our children and grandchildren! Once again, I would like to emphasize my point of view: the experience of human history shows that if there is any man-made disaster or tragedy in human society, it can be traced back to the inequality between people! Undoubtedly, this also applies to our little society of ninety-three! ”

"Brother Li, see you!"

"With Ben Dick's life experience, I have a feeling of empowerment for what Brother Li said......"

"Yes, the historical cycle of chaos in the Eastern Empire is simply miserable."

"That's right! The cycle of chaos in human history all originates from this! ”

"So we have to find a way to end this cycle of history."

"Uh...... As for the way to break out of the law of historical cycles, it seems that a famous historical figure has a detailed discussion. ”

At this time, several old guys couldn't help but have a small meeting next to them to discuss this topic, but their discussion was very small, and in the end, they all shook their heads and sighed there, this scene made everyone around look at each other a little puzzled.

However, Zhu Beiguo smiled beside him:

"The old people are looking back on some unbearable history, let's ask Brother Li to continue to talk about the convention."

At this time, Li Junming raised the volume and said to everyone:

"Everyone! In order for us to break out of this cycle of chaos, the second principle established by the Convention is that our internal affairs must be governed by the principle of common governance.

Please note that the purpose of establishing this principle is essentially to institutionally guarantee equality of rights between us!

It is guaranteed by the system that there will never be a stratum or a small circle among us that is higher than us, still less a dictator!

Note that co-governance means that the sovereignty of governance rests with all of us, and by extension, the idea that our power must come from the equal and voluntary delegation of each of us here.

Therefore, if we do not want to give ourselves and future generations freedom and equality just in words, we must refer to historical experience and lessons. Human civilization has developed so far, at least so far, this principle called "co-governance" is the only effective means that can systematically guarantee the realization of freedom and equality among people.

Hence the self-evident principle here: our freedom cannot be expected to be given by others, much less by some strong or saint! The co-governance of each of us from the heart is the talisman that guarantees the freedom of us and our descendants!

So that's why the idea of co-governance has to be very clearly established among us from the outset, and not as some people think, that our freedom and equality need to wait for us to have the so-called qualities, the so-called maturity, before giving them to us.

In addition, there is another fact that I must point out to you here:

The experience of history has amply shown that, in a few generations, there may be some kind of divide between the rich and the poor that we do not want to see, and it is difficult to say how many of your children and grandchildren will still be in the upper echelons of this society.

Therefore, in order to give our children and grandchildren a free and equal environment, we must establish a strong binding system for individual rights and property rights in advance.

Otherwise, our children and grandchildren are likely to be in a desperate predicament.

For, without the protection of the above principles, we cannot then expect some conscientious messianic figure to emerge in the upper classes to save our children and grandchildren. After all, the idea is too naΓ―ve, because the huge interests and desires will cause the remaining conscience of that class to be annihilated by the huge interests, so it is impossible for those upper classes to give you and my children and grandchildren freedom and equal rights, so the final solution can only rely on violence, so human society will fall into a cycle of retribution.

If that's really the end story...... Again, we are blind to this life crossing!

Although we may not be gone at that time, we clearly see that it is a dead end, and in good conscience, for the sake of future generations, we should find ways to avoid it now.

Therefore, the concept of co-governance is our talisman, otherwise sooner or later there will be one or several strong people among us, and sooner or later there will be a dictatorship of one or several dictators due to the conflict of interests and ideas, in that case, there may be, no, there will be a cycle of internal infighting! And such internal friction is something we cannot tolerate.

In short, we must fundamentally institutionalize all public management powers in a cage. ”

When Li Junming said this, he glanced around the quiet venue and said to Zhu Beiguo:

"Brother Beiguo is also one of the drafts of this convention, you can say a few words."

So Zhu Beiguo stood up and stood side by side with Li Junming and said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, here I must popularize the common sense that freedom and equality do not mean that they can be arbitrarily arbitrary, but that they mean the emancipation of human nature.

However, there are always people in this world who have ulterior motives who reduce freedom and equality to the level of being free to do whatever they want and lawlessness, so that people are afraid of freedom and equality, so that they are willing to surrender their rights and interests in exchange for the so-called sense of security, so as to achieve the goal of enslaving others.

In fact, this is despicable, because these people are unwilling to tell you that the so-called freedom and equality is not that you can do what you want, but when you don't want to do something, you can not do it, and no one can force you to do it!

Ladies and gentlemen, do you understand the difference and the mystery?

Therefore, within us, we must correctly and comprehensively understand the four words of freedom and equality, and conscientiously practice them, only in this way can we truly protect everyone here. Okay, that's all for my addition, now I invite Brother Junming to continue speaking. ”

After speaking, Zhu Beiguo sat back in his seat.

Li Junming nodded when he heard this, and continued:

"Another important principle enunciated in this covenant is that the right of public administration within our ninety-three is subject to various constraints.

Without these constraints and supervision, there would be no equal rights for each of us, let alone respect and protect the rights and interests of each of us.

Historical experience tells us that no matter how much people try to propagate and beautify, people who live under the control of unsupervised absolute power cannot have real equality and dignity, let alone real freedom!

Therefore, in order to avoid such a tragedy, we ninety-three people must not let our personal power get out of control. A system of checks and balances must be established! Otherwise, it is very likely that those of us will be unknowingly enslaved by one of us in disguise, of course, our generation may not, but our children and grandchildren might. ”

The more Li Junming said at this time, the more impassioned he became:

"The fourth major concept of the Convention is that we should use the rule of law internally to regulate the conduct of all and establish the principle of legislation: that is, in accordance with reason, conscience and public order and good morals.

This means that we must not use violence if we have to go to court against each other.

We should establish a fundamental principle of the rule of law within ourselves, that is, there can be disputes, competition, and contradictions among the 93 of us, but we must never use violent means to resolve the contradictions between us.

Whoever violates this article is our public enemy!

In short, at all times, the way to resolve the contradictions between us should be at least peaceful, at least through the law, even if it goes to the end, the jury system should be used to determine whether you and I are guilty or not, and we must not use violent means......"

……

On this day, Li Junming's speech lasted for a long time, and until the end, no one in the venue interrupted him, and no one held a small meeting below.

When Li Junming sat back silently after saying the last paragraph, many people exhaled as if they had woken up from a dream.

However, the content that Li Junming and Zhu Beiguo talked about when they took turns to fight just now was somewhat brain-burning, and everyone couldn't fully digest it for a while.

Many people even had some confusion about the speeches of the two, but they felt that there must be something important behind these speeches that was not explicitly stated, so everyone in the venue finally spoke in response after being silent for a long time......
