"As you just said, it is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and with the existence of threats to one's own life, it is in line with human nature to avoid it, as for natural human rights, all are created equal, and the vast majority cannot be above the minority...... These truths are all acquired things imposed on us by those thinkers and educators of later generations, and there are even many of them, which are actually contrary to nature. Yan Xiuze said softly: "So, there is nothing wrong with these people who have been infected by the virus, struggling to survive, and even thinking about dragging people all over the world into the water in order to get that slim hope of survival...... But in the same way, the billions of people who have not yet been infected, for their own safety, acquiesce to the government to 'clean up' these 500,000 people, in fact, it does not seem to be wrong. ”

"However, there will always be people who will choose what most people think is a relatively 'stupid' approach, which may be 'Our Lady's disease', blindly wanting to 'immortal', but may end up killing more people, or they may be more rational and want to do a good job of isolation, without producing more infected people, and solve this matter in a relatively mild way, at least not just drop a nuclear bomb."

"And crazy people like me." Yan Xiuze pointed at himself and said: "Impose the truth that I think is 'right' on the world, and practice it firmly, maybe the whole world thinks I'm wrong, but I don't care...... Because as long as I feel right for myself, or as long as the logic I follow can achieve self-consistency in my own mind, that's fine. ”

"At this point, in fact, I am very similar to Black Star, but many times, I will be more disciplined than him, and I know where the boundary is, and I will not deliberately 'cross the line' unless I have to...... "So I became a super hero, and Black Star became a super criminal." ”

"But I don't think there's anything wrong with those who are struggling to survive, and there's nothing wrong with those who are pushing for the erasure of a city outright...... Does this mean that there are smart people who are like 'Our Lady's disease' or want 'the best of both worlds'...... Even in this matter, I'm crazy, wrong? ”

Speaking of this, Yan Xiuze grinned and smiled: "It seems that each has its own reason, right?" ”

"This is the way this is the way it is, many times, you can divide different sides of a matter into a variety of different positions, but it is actually difficult for you to distinguish an absolute right and wrong."

"Because everyone has their own truth, the reason why people become an individual, rather than a 'human giant' who shares all human memories and thoughts, is because each of them has different things and thinking patterns, and there is no way to empathize."

"So everyone has their own unique ideas, and they all have what is called 'free will', is it a good thing or a bad thing?"

Yan Xiuze shook his head and smiled: "Of course, you can't generalize. ”

"At first glance, it is certainly more efficient that all human beings share one consciousness...... But this is a lot more interesting, and it gives rise to the current society. ”

"Otherwise, wouldn't every human being actually become a cell? Then things may become simpler, you have a poison in your left hand that does not spread quickly, if it is enough to make a decision immediately, don't you just get it if you 'break the wrist of a strong man'? In the future, you will become a disabled person, and it is also your own decision, and the 'left hand' that you cut off will not be able to turn into a ghost, so why don't you respect its 'hand', right? ”

Yan Xiuze stumbled and said his opinion, analyzing the psychology of the black star at that time: "Just because billions of people around the world are billions of living individuals, not billions of cells, I don't think that erasing these 500,000 potential virus infections directly and neatly from the earth's territory can be called a 'strong man's broken wrist' for the whole human race." ”

Speaking of this, Yan Xiuze rarely made a small joke: "Before breaking your wrist, have you considered the feeling of 'wrist'?" ”

"But, in reality, the U.S. government, the powers that got the information, and the superhuman organizations that stand tall enough to see far enough...... All of them defaulted to the fact that Blackstar pressed the nuclear explosion button. ”

"Did they struggle in between? Did a heated quarrel break out within each of them? Yan Xiuze asked and replied to himself: "I think there must be, but no matter what the process is, the final result is that a small number of them are convinced, so they reach some kind of consensus." ”

And so...... Bang! ”

"Half a million people are gone."

"'Consensus' is actually a very good thing that allows people with different opinions to come together and do things that individuals can't do, so 'consensus' is the beginning of something great in many cases." Yan Xiuze continued: "Sometimes, 'reaching a consensus' also means that some of them have made some compromises, and these people must be a 'minority' in the group. ”

This is understandable, because the precondition for consensus is to come up with a solution that will satisfy the majority of people...... For example, 10 years ago, if the people who supported the 'press' and the 'non-press' were able to reach a roughly equal situation during the quarrel phase, then they would inevitably fall into a 'stalemate phase' that might worsen the situation, and it is not clear what it might be like now. ”

"So, reaching consensus in a sense can also be called 'the minority obeys the majority.'"

"As a result, many different voices were kneaded into one voice, and individuals with different ideas were temporarily gathered into a 'whole'."

"Of course, it makes a lot of things more efficient, but it also has the downside that it can be a little bit ...... Boring. ”

"Or rather, convergence."

Therefore, if a person is in a highly disciplined group, it is actually difficult for him to make his voice heard, because he has been coerced by the group, or has become a 'cog', or 'cell', of the group...... Gears or cells naturally don't speak, but Blackstar certainly hates it. ”

"I can even assert that Black Star must have been a 'cog' and 'cell' for a long time in the days when he didn't become a superpower...... Of course, that's not the point, it's just that he thinks it's boring, very boring. ”

"Although this society is composed of billions of people, in fact, it is always the handful of 'elites' at the top who really lead the development of ......the times."

But when the elites of this society have reached a certain consensus, their opinions on one thing are almost convergent, and only one voice remains...... Do you think Blackstar, who conceived the vision of an 'absolutely pluralistic world', will not be disappointed in this world? ”
