Chapter 567
We talked casually with Li Zhendong. It is always a happy thing to have so many like-minded partners...
"when the time comes, make an appointment again!"
"It must be."
Because the two of them are very busy, they leave soon.
This new era of human civilization is not only about to usher in a technological explosion, but also a deep change in humanities...
So many transcenders were born in this World, population The proportion is as high as 1.5%, which is a full 600,000, which is already the scale of a small city. This is not the same as the original one-tenthousandth of the population, or one-thousandth of the population.
The 600,000 elite population has been enough to greatly affect the entire society, and they have begun to try to formulate a more radical system and new bills.
In this case, the new human civilization will inevitably undergo a deeper change of thought.
Even Zhang Yuan himself can hardly grasp the complex changes in this area, and can only adapt to the entire new era as much as possible.
However, it is difficult for an ordinary person to appreciate this kind of rapid change, which may be an inherent drawback of the "authoritarian fan".
Especially young people, who have not experienced that period of history, are always not very sensitive to this aspect, so Zhang Yuan often talks to the students about current political issues in his class.
"...Social thought is a kind of thought formed in a certain social environment, or under the influence of major events in the society. This kind of consensus of overwhelming majority people will in turn oppose The entire civilization has had a certain impact."
The original "escape plan" formed a "liberal" social thought in the mind of the masses, and it still remains in people's minds.
In the years when the "Escape Plan" was just completed, this kind of free thought was particularly turbulent. Various small-scale strikes continued one after another. Some people really couldn't support it. They wanted to learn senior and follow. Run away.
But since human beings only have the last "Kunlun Mountains" mothership, they have to keep it for themselves, and it is impossible to organize the next escape plan for them, so what should we do?
So these people even tried revolution!
"It is not a revolution, but a different term, riot..."
The final result of the riot, of course, is easily suppressed. This is only a small part. It's just human struggle.
"Why did this series of phenomena happen? The main reason is that after the society has developed to a certain stage, they have a common confusion."
And a large number of transcender groups have their own "Advance" thought, in the past Four hundred years of time, finally repressed "freedom" and became the mainstream thought in society.
Zhang Yuan introduced in his own class: "Of course, the'free' thoughts that have been produced in the past will remain in our history forever, and they may reappear at any time."
"We cannot say that chasing individual freedom is a bad idea. It is more in line with human nature, pays more attention to individual development, pays more attention to individual happiness, and is more appropriate to human instinct.
"And'advance', progress, pay more attention to the development of the overall civilization. From the perspective of the development of civilization as a whole, the'progressives' are undoubtedly more in line with the development of civilizations than the'liberals'. Even this overall development sometimes does not benefit individuals, so it sometimes loses personal happiness. "
"You have to look at this World from a diversified perspective. The real world is not black and white. Black is the opposite. It may be gray or red, not necessarily white. We should reject any extreme thinking. Humans should chase freedom, but it is impossible to pursue infinite freedom..."
Because Zhang Yuan’s course is very long, it takes half a day to start, and the difficulty is extremely high. Many of them are clouds. Mathematics in Liwuli, after a long time in class, students are prone to jogging, so he often talks about some interesting social content.
This period of history is not too long, and it is trifling for 400 years. Everyone likes to listen.
Anyway, it’s more obscure than esoteric, and the T function is totally incomprehensible.
"So, Master Old Zhang, what about the progressives? What is worthy of our attention? Is there anything wrong with it? Doesn’t it mean that any trend of thought has its extremes? "
In fact, these students have long been corrected by the "progressive" represented by the New Civilization School.
Because they were born late, they have not experienced Naturally, I can’t feel the atmosphere of what happened in the past.
Zhang Yuan pondered for a while and replied: “There are also many types of progressive thoughts. If you use color as an example, I liken it to'blue'. After our civilization left Earth, for thousands of years, under the leadership of the New Civilization School, it was light blue. "
"Everyone feels that civilization needs progress. A certain degree of personal cost can be sacrificed for overall progress. This is a social consensus. However, this consensus has not reached a certain height. The so-called "a certain degree of cost" is not clearly defined, so it is only shallow blue. "
"However, in the long-term construction of planetary engines, this shallow blue slowly fades away, personal happiness decreases, and then other thoughts breed. As a result, the mainstream trend of thought in the entire society has changed, becoming another color, such as green. People began to yearn for personal freedom more and more. "
"The green is becoming more and more intense, from light green to dark green, so it is difficult for the two sides to coexist, and the entire civilization split into two. "
"People with dark green thoughts ran away on the Bright Galaxy, and the rest were light blue and light green coexisting, no one could defeat anyone, so the remaining civilization appeared Such and that kind of internal chaos. "
"The return of a large number of transcenders brought a dark blue color. In the past four hundred years of war of thought, the light green was almost wiped out, and the tortoise shrank to a corner. "
"But the price paid for it is that the entire new human civilization has slowly transformed from shallow blue to deep blue. Light blue is a kind of pan-consciousness, but Deep Blue puts it on the line, which is extreme. This trend of thought believes that the progress of civilization is far greater than that of individuals. "
"I think this kind of change needs to be carefully considered. Too much is too late. Humans are not machines. We must maintain a good balance among them. This is a lesson left to us by history. Light blue and light green can coexist in the same society, and dark blue and dark green will trigger social conflicts. "
"Too much emphasis on the righteousness of civilization is an unsustainable product under the influence of the times. "
Zhang Yuan explained the changes in social thoughts in a simple way.
Another student raised his hand and asked: "Do you think that after we meet each other, there will be mutual integration Is it possible? "
Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "It should be gone. Although we are still a family, it is the best choice for everyone to develop their own." When the time comes, there should be exchanges between people, or exchanges between cultures. "
"The starry sky is so wide, we don't want to eliminate each other because of different thoughts, right? "
Many people shook their heads quickly. In fact, everyone feels a little bit of contempt for these runaways, and they don't want to communicate with each other, but there is no need to hate them to the extent of destroying each other...
Zhang Yuan sighed in his heart. From a modern perspective, judging the past sounds very relaxed and freehand, but these students were born in a good era.
In fact, the ideological war until now is all A very cruel thing. When Zhang Yuan was young, he used to think that debate can solve many problems...
However, once a person’s three views are formed, they can be changed through the mouth. He has to be beaten by reality to be able to really change.
So after Bright Galaxy leaves, there will be very brief riots and internal repression... But this period of history is in the textbook Never mentioned...
