1954 "Political Correctness" for Europeans
How terrible is syphilis? It is said that after syphilis was introduced to Europe at the end of the 15th century, the source of syphilis was unknown for a long time, so it lost a great opportunity to control its spread in the early stage. Then, syphilis was everywhere in Europe. Moreover, along with the Portuguese merchant ships, it was brought to the Ming Dynasty in the East.
However, it is also strange to say. Although syphilis was brought to the Ming Dynasty by Portuguese sailors as early as the Zhengde and Jiajing periods. However, syphilis was not too widespread in China during the ancient Ming and Qing dynasties, and there were no terrible legends.
It seems that syphilis is an unspeakable intimate disease in China, but it is rare to die of festering of the whole body like in Europeans.
Therefore, Marin speculated that it is estimated that the Chinese and Indians are both yellow and have stronger resistance to the syphilis virus. Therefore, in ancient China, syphilis was controlled in the lower body. It's not like white Europeans, who have rotten sores on their faces.
In addition, during the Ming and Qing dynasties, the Chinese etiquette was strict, and syphilis was only spread among those prodigals, so it did not cause a general spread in the whole society.
Europeans, on the other hand, have been more profligate since ancient times, and they are not bound by etiquette. So, it's spreading very fast and widely. Of course, later generations of Huaxia also learned from the Europeans and Americans, and Ez and something began to spread rapidly.
To what extent did syphilis affect Europe? Marin had read a story that showed that at the beginning of the 20th century, 10 percent of Londoners, 15 percent of Parisians, and 20 percent of American recruits had syphilis.
At the beginning of the 20th century, London had a population of more than 6 million, and Paris had a population of more than 3 million. As for the American recruits...... It's hard to say, if it was before World War I, the number of recruits in the United States was limited. However, if we count the US troops during World War I, the number of troops sent to Europe reached 2 million...... Well, counting it, there are more than 600,000 syphilis patients in London and more than 400,000 in Paris...... About 400,000 recruits are syphilis patients, right? This is not surprising, the old American soldiers have always been very sexy......
And that's just a few big cities or groups, and if you were the whole of Europe, that's a lot of totals......
It is said that Beethoven was both suffering from syphilis and was therefore deaf (uncertain). And Nietzsche, Maupassant, Van Gogh and other bigwigs in the literary and artistic circles seem to have had syphilis...... It can be seen that the entertainment industry is chaotic, it has a long history and tradition, and you can't blame other artists...... After all, the ancestors love to mess around, not to mention their apprentices?
……
Of course, Marin doesn't care what happens in those literary circles, and doesn't care whether Chinese people are more resistant to syphilis. In this life, he is also a white man, and his resistance to syphilis is obviously very low. Therefore, in order to avoid endangering himself and his offspring, Marin said that he had to be ruthless and ban syphilis.
For this reason, Marin had to temporarily postpone the development of the Caribbean. Moreover, a lot of human and material resources will be invested in the strict screening of indigenous people in the Caribbean. If a syphilis carrier is found, they are quarantined.
Although, for those indigenous people in the Caribbean, syphilis may be a slightly more serious skin disease. But as long as it's a skin disease, there's always something different. For example, the skin will be different from that of a normal person.
Therefore, in line with the principle of "it is better to kill by mistake than to let go", Marin decided to quarantine all Tylenol and nearby Caribbean natives who see them suffering from skin diseases, regardless of whether they are syphilis or not. Then, pick a larger island and drive all the indigenous people suspected of suffering from skin diseases. Moreover, men and women are housed separately on different islands.
In this way, even if syphilis does not kill these indigenous people, as long as the male and female are separated and their possibility of having children is cut off, syphilis will not be passed on to future generations.
As for whether there will be any or jiyanos on the island of pure men and women, that's not Marin's concern. As long as they don't leave the isolated island, Marin won't care. As long as they dare to board the ship and go to sea, they will sink the ship, kill the personnel, and sprinkle lime for disinfection......
Doing so, it is already counted as the heart of Marin Bodhisattva. Replaced by the colonizers of various countries in history, they have already begun to massacre. Marin just separated them from men and women, which was already considered a great mercy.
Of course, Marin will not abandon the development of the Caribbean because of this. The island of Cuba, for example, is something that Marin needs to develop with all his might. After all, the island of Cuba has excellent natural conditions and can produce a variety of tropical crops to supply the needs of the North Sea country.
As for the other islands in the Caribbean Sea, Marin thought about it, and still planned to recruit local natives to form a puppet army to occupy and search the various islands in order to clear out any suspected syphilis patients and prevent the spread of the virus.
The indigenous people themselves are highly resistant to syphilis, and it is also much safer for them to search for and screen syphilis patients. If you were a white European, you might get seriously ill and hang up easily, which would be terrible.
It's like Marin sent a group of white European death row inmates before, hoping that they would be infected with syphilis, and scaring the members of the investigation team with a tragic situation. As a result, after contracting syphilis, they soon festered and died all over their bodies, and none of them made it until the arrival of the investigation team. Later, the hundreds of syphilis patients were brought in by the colonial army from the locals in poor health, so that the syphilis virus could be brought up. If you change to a strong local native, even if you have syphilis, it doesn't matter...... Because, for the strong natives, syphilis is not much different from having a pimple on the body. However, this thing can kill Europeans......
Marin thinks that he has good self-control, and even if syphilis spreads to Europe, he can control himself and avoid messing around and avoiding syphilis. However, he had no faith in his children. If his sons had been a little more amorous and had contracted this, their descendants would have perished.
Therefore, in order to prevent future generations from being poisoned by syphilis, he could only be cruel to the indigenous people of the Caribbean. Moreover, it is not too ruthless, it is just isolated, and it is not directly slaughtered.
Of course, this is also Marin's self-deception. After all, exile a large number of sick people on a desert island, although not directly slaughtered, is equivalent to indirect killing. After all, there aren't enough resources on a desert island to feed that many people. Eventually, those sick will starve to death.
However, this decision was very welcome by the Holy See. This kind of bloodless behavior is precisely what Christianity promotes.
It is precisely because of this cultural tradition that animal protectors have emerged in later generations. Even killing a chicken and slaughtering a fish requires legislation to prevent chickens and fish from dying too painfully......
Marin scoffs at this kind of second-hand goods - it's really kind-hearted, it's a kind of release! Why do you still slaughter people? Therefore, this seemingly kind behavior is actually so idiotic that people are too lazy to evaluate......
Therefore, a lot of Christian kindness is actually hypocrisy, which belongs to crocodile tears. Otherwise, the European colonizers, who were all Christians, would be so brutal and insane. Buddhism, on the other hand, is not very good, but it is much better than Christianity in terms of doing good deeds and accumulating virtue. At least, people who eat fasting and chant Buddha are really vegetarian and don't kill. Unlike Christians, who eat meat in large chunks and boast of goodness. While slaughtering animals, dismembering honest and honest cows into steaks...... While shamelessly shouting to protect animals......
However, for Marin, these are not important. It is important to shout mercy while holding a butcher's knife, this is the "political correctness" of Europeans. No matter how brutal it is, if you repent in a fake way afterwards, it's over...... For the politician Marin, it is enough to be "politically correct" in the European style......
