Chapter 613 Social Activists
"I forgot to ask last time, what's the school atmosphere like?", Durin was speechless, his hand already pressed on Frena's calf. Maybe it's because he received too much unclear potential information during the meeting and playing chess with Maggs today, and he still feels a little pressured in his heart. Especially when Maggs asked him if he wanted to work in the West, he was very stressed at that moment. What he needs now is relaxation, total relaxation.
In the winter, it is very easy to warm up in the house, and the fireplace is the easiest way, but there are more extravagant ways to use obsidian as a source of heat to warm up a room quickly. None of these people who can live in the villa area of Oak Bay are poor, and Yaojing, who burns a few yuan and a dozen yuan a day, is not in the scope of their consideration at all, and it is better to consider the question of whether it is worth spending time to consider whether it is worth it, it is better to consider something more valuable.
So in winter, the temperature in the villa is maintained at about 28 degrees, which is exactly the kind of temperature that is neither hot nor cold, and there is no need to wear too many clothes. Frena looked like she had taken a shower, and she had the scent of a shower gel. This fragrance may make people feel very ordinary if it is smelled in a grocery store, and even make some people feel a little sick or nauseous. But after being used on people, the taste is obviously much lighter, and it also smells better.
While groping with Frena's calf, Durin sighed at the passage of time, and unconsciously left Turnaire for several years, he was only sixteen years old when he first arrived at Turner, and now he is twenty-one, and when he is done with all the things he is doing now, he will be almost twenty-five or sixteen years old, or even twenty-seven or eighteen. Time is really urgent, never stop their hurried footsteps for someone, even the gods have been boiled to death by time, how can human beings last?
If he couldn't have a moment in this river of time that lit up the entire sky, he would feel guilty, he was ashamed that the gods had given him the miracle of life!
"The current series is quite funny, it seems that the screenwriter is still the same people as before, so you are so relieved to give these people to her?", the jokes on TV are one after another, and some of them are indeed very vulgar as those commentators say, but the more vulgar things are, the easier it is for the general public to find common fun, which is part of life.
The opera is indeed beautiful, but not everyone can understand and want to watch it, and it is possible that those big people don't like to watch opera either, but in order to prove that they are "civilized people", they have to sit in the theater and enjoy the torture with a smile. Just like some nobles like to add rosemary powder and some spices when drinking milk, the taste is strange like milk spit out of the stomach of a calf, this is not a delicacy that ordinary people can "enjoy", but the nobles say it is good after drinking.
Durin came back to his senses and grinned, he stretched out his hand and spread his fingers as far apart as possible, "See?"
Freyna was a little puzzled, she looked at it for a while, and then grabbed Durin's hand and looked at it over and over for a while, and asked, "What do you see?"
"Don't you feel it? Time slipped away from my palm quickly, and nothing in this world sank and remained the same. Now you think these things are great, but it won't be long before you realize that the glory of the past can't light up the midnight of tomorrow......"
"Is this a line? It seems to be quite esoteric, what do you mean?", Frena, still confused, she was a little confused about what Esoteric Durin was talking about.
Durin gently pushed her, and she immediately understood, knelt on the ground and leaned forward on the coffee table, continuing to concentrate on the ridiculous scenes on the screen, laughing out loud from time to time. It's just that sometimes the laughter seems to be mixed with some strange tones.
For three days in a row, Durin hid in Oak Bay and did not go out, and public opinion outside intensified, and various "conspiracy theories" emerged one after another. Of course, he will not keep saying that he is good, that he is a victim, that he is a weakling, like a fool. He also hired a number of newspapers to become his enemies, poured dirt on him as much as he could, and even some small newspapers listed nine unforgivable charges against Doolin about the choice of the people when Doolin was assassinated, which made the tabloid newspaper angry—but it was soon smashed by some people.
When the general public is lost in the countless "truths" in society, how will they choose?
Some people will tell them the truth, and these people are called "social activists", such as Mrs. Vivian, who is a very well-known feminist activist in Canle. There are more such people in the imperial capital, after all, there are more people in the imperial capital who can help them, and any "aid" will change their lives at this stage, whether it is material or political, which is what these social activists are pursuing.
"Why is Mr. Doolin persecuted?", a guy who looked very clean and tidy, with a righteous face, stood in an open place in the park in a very decent place and loudly conveyed his theory to the people around him, he raised his arm and pointed to the sky and said loudly: "Because Mr. Doolin is a representative of the minority, there have been some problems in our society that need to be solved urgently, and the situation of racial discrimination and class discrimination is becoming more and more serious. Mr. Donald, the lords of the Capetian family, they are all nobles, they are all Ogdings, and these nobles not only look down on us ordinary people, but also look down on the Guartes represented by Mr. Doolin. ”
"With the help of Mr. Doolin, the lives of the inhabitants of the city of Otis have been greatly improved, which has precisely hurt the interests of these nobles, who cannot continue to maim and exploit people like us with their evil means, so they hate Mr. Doolin and use despicable means. We may not be able to help Mr. Doolin out of the current situation, but we still have what we can do, and from today on, from now on, we will try to boycott and refuse to buy all the products of the Song Consortium......"
The gentleman, who had a sense of justice and looked like a good man, was a social activist, and he received fifteen hundred dollars from an anonymous account, hoping that he would at least discuss the matter between Mr. Doolin and the nobles in public, as he "wished". This obviously tendentious demand is the favorite thing for all social activists to do, not only to get a large sum of money, but also to allow more people to become their followers and continue to expand their influence.
One day they can represent a specific group of people to become recognized cultural people, and they are executors with social morality and conscience for social progress, and he will represent justice to attack ugliness, he is the embodiment of justice!
Freyna and Doolin, who had dragged Durin out for a jog in the morning, stayed next to the park, and this was the third time she had walked this way, and she couldn't help but ask, "How many of these people have you invited, and are they really that influential?"
Durin smiled, and instead of answering the question, he continued to run forward. These people were all found by Kevin, and as a lawyer who can control the key to victory and defeat outside the courtroom, he has mastered a lot of this kind of crooked things. It cost less than 150,000 yuan, but it invited more than 60 influential "social activists" to build momentum for Duhring. Look at the people who stood by and listened intently to the activist's indoctrination, most of them at the bottom of society.
In fact, the bottom of society is always the easiest person to change his position and the easiest to blindly follow. The cultural penetration rate of the lower social society of the empire is not high, and they lack cultural knowledge, so they worship cultural knowledge more blindly. These social activities just meet this point, coupled with the beautiful packaging and slogans that make them feel vibrating, it is not difficult to completely brainwash them in the indoctrination again and again.
These people at the bottom of society may not seem to be able to play a role in this game, but when the number of this group of people is in the tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions or even tens of millions, they can play a role. There are many ways for capitalists to plunder the wealth of the common people, but the most important way is to sell their products to the general public, and if their goods cannot be sold, they only rely on the exploitation of workers to maintain their current income?
Difficult!
Exploit one dollar from each worker, and if there are 10,000 workers under his command, it will be 10,000 dollars a month. It seems like a lot, and indeed there are many start-up capitalists who use this method, but relying on exploitation is a joke compared to selling a car for a profit of hundreds or thousands of dollars. The cost and benefit of employing 10,000 workers to produce goods is expected to be much higher than the 10,000 dollars obtained through exploitation, and a good capitalist will never make the wrong choice in this matter.
Perhaps most of the capitalists need to rely on the exploitation of workers to cut expenses in the beginning, but once these capitalists enter a virtuous circle, they will instead give some welfare benefits to the workers. In the Doolin dream world, all the companies are emphasizing one word, corporate culture. In fact, corporate culture is a kind of brainwashing of the working class, it is glorious to work for the boss, and it is happy to be an employee of the factory.
If you want to make the Capet family fall into the quagmire and be completely unable to get out, it is not enough to entangle them in the lawsuit, you also need to create a dilemma for them, so that they need to rely on the strength of others to break free from the quagmire.
Once they do, the day of the final trial of this lawsuit will be near.
Of course, there will be some things going on during this time, some interesting things.
