Section 410 The Mighty Wave of X (16)
It's a simple, identification question.
In concrete life, there is often a distinction between groups of people and groups of people. Many behaviors, in the eyes of outsiders, are 'incredible', but in the eyes of the group themselves, they are 'taken for granted'.
When this 'right' is helpful for the development of this group of people, and has been accumulated over a period of time, the sense of group identity will be formally formed in their thinking and actions.
People who uphold the same approach will involuntarily recognize each other, and together they will form a whole.
To paraphrase a phrase from the movie: people don't get used to it at first, then get used to it, and finally can't live without it.
There are also some groups that have been in ignorance for a long time, have not formed a cultural --- or have formed a sense of identity that is not strong enough, and lack sufficient resistance to external changes.
Such a group is prone to split when there is pressure from the outside. The king, and his men, were clearly not strong.
This kind of propaganda carried out by oneself really cannot be easily won, nor will it have an immediate effect. However, as long as you go further, forget about life and death and make certain key choices, it can completely have the effect of dividing the opponent.
For example, in battle, the target of the attack is all inclined to the mage, ignoring the nobles. Even under the command of the higher-ups, the nobles will still charge bravely, but those ordinary nobles will definitely be happy for the casualties of the mages.
Mages who felt this casualty and hostility must have wondered in their hearts if the nobles had betrayed them. From then on, they will definitely be more united.
Even if their side fails and dies, as long as they make such cooperation---- propaganda and action, these nobles and mages will definitely split into two groups in the near future, unconsciously and involuntarily.
Two groups full of hostility and contradictions.
In the time that followed, even if their leaders were able to keep their senses, to negotiate and communicate on past friendships, to declare that 'the enemy's attempt to provoke us is a great conspiracy!' The enemy must not be allowed to succeed! ''The nobleman and the mage are one and the same, and there is no need to distinguish between them at all!'' But as long as there is no fundamental change in their behavior, it will only cover up the problem temporarily, but not really eliminate it."
The seed was sown. After that, these two groups of people will identify themselves spiritually, unconsciously, and will pay more attention to the group they belong to
'Aristocrat', or 'Mage'
Since then, their conflict has ceased to be between individuals and individuals. As a group, their division will become inevitable.
If we die, sooner or later one of them will kill the other.
This is the terrible thing about propaganda, and this is the revenge that those who have mastered the art of propaganda can do.
Of course, this is a last resort.
If you can do it, you still have to survive.
Unfortunately, this technique cannot be used to deter the enemy. The reason why this kind of thing is strong is because it is in the dead end of the mind, and the enemy tends to ignore it and not care about it, so it can exert its power. And once it is used to threaten the enemy, it cannot be used.
Wait a minute.... If you can't play, you can't play, so what's the matter?
My purpose is to save myself and everyone, not to fight with these kings' subordinates.... I don't hate this practice of getting rid of space through scientific research, and if it weren't for their attempt to make themselves the object of scientific research, I would never have fought them.
Boreh said that these people were unlucky. If this categorization erodes their minds, will this erosion be their doom?
And if they keep this kind of thing secret, then they will resolutely kill all their own people?
There is such a possibility .... If that's the case, then it's time to find a way to disclose this classification to the other party?
Yes, take advantage of the fear of space and the gods of these kings' subordinates--- make them think: these things are prepared by the gods? On my side, I'm just showing the content step by step?
Moreover, the gods don't care if we live or die, and even the original purpose included letting these people kill us?
In this way, their thoughts and confrontation targets will be drawn to the other side of space. For us, their purpose will be to exploit rather than to attack and kill us.
This is the way to survive, this is the so-called 'attacking the heart'.
This kind of behavior can be divided into many types. The reason to fight, the enthusiasm to fight, and the will to fight to destroy the enemy can all be called that.
To undermine the enthusiasm for fighting, it is to make some of the enemy think that it is time to fight, but the gains in the battle have been taken away by a small number of people, and we do not need to be too active and perfunctory.
To destroy the will to fight is to make the enemy think: you can't win.
In this regard, it is actually to overwhelm the enemy in the confrontation of will and energy. For any goal that the enemy wants to achieve, he will try his best to destroy and confront him. Win or lose, make the enemy consume more energy and resources, and pay more price.
Upon realizing this, the enemy's attention will involuntarily shift from victory to attrition.
And to destroy the reason for fighting is to make the enemy think that these enemies should not be fought. It is most effective to reveal the harm caused by the classification method and achieve such an effect.
If this is the case, then the propaganda that I have just prepared against the two groups of 'nobles' and 'mages'--- the kind of propaganda that is carried out in order to destroy the enemy's enthusiasm for fighting, will we continue?
Well, it's better to continue. In this way, the content given to the mage can also be displayed publicly. Then, through private channels, the content of the 'long-term harm caused by classification' is disclosed to them.
Create a situation for them that 'this is all a conspiracy of space, killing this group of people in front of them will not benefit, but will fall into the trap of space and fall apart internally'.
Will they believe it?
Yes, the conditions are sufficient.
They had seen the power of the gods, the power of the heavens and the beasts running wild---- enough to make them feel terrified and devote all their attention. It can be said that the fear of the gods is buried in their hearts.
At the same time, they are very talented as a whole. After suffering such a curse, such a castle was built through hard work; Through experimentation, the beasts sent to attack them were driven; Through bribery and inducement, let the contractor who is full of the protagonist's consciousness become a doll in their palms.
With such ingenuity, simple provocation will not provoke their action, but it will not provoke complete rejection. Smart people will involuntarily look for the valuable part of other people's wisdom and use it for themselves.
