Chapter 149: Flower of Blood and Bone·One-Dimensional Society VI (End)(2/2)
Xiu pulled hard and lifted the whole head up.
Cameron, whose head was pulled out, was not dead. His wide eyes stared at his body and the blond angel in front of him.
"You...what...are..."
Xia Xiu's expression was still ruthless. He didn't give Cameron any chance to breathe. He continued to use force, and finally completely tore Cameron's head off his body.
Wires and steel bones broke in his hands, and scattered electric sparks flickered in the air.
His body collapsed to the ground, metal parts scattered on the ground, and the originally powerful mechanical warrior turned into a pile of useless scrap metal.
"With your condition, you can still survive for a few more minutes."
Xia Xiu said nonchalantly, and at the same time, he threw Cameron's head on the ground.
Boom——
Cameron's head fell heavily to the ground with a muffled sound.
Xia Xiu stood next to Cameron's body, took a deep breath, and slowly relaxed his body.
The War Angel's figure slowly faded as he thought, his muscles contracted and returned to their original form, and his long blond hair also returned to its original short hair.
He looked at the core energy device in his hand, quickly looked around, found a display screen and a holographic projection console, and walked over.
He skillfully operated the console and inserted the core energy device into a slot, and countless images of data flowing instantly flashed on the screen.
Xia Xiu's fingers quickly operated on the console, calling up documents and surveillance videos one after another, and began to analyze and record relevant information.
The energy fluctuations of the core energy device spread throughout the entire floor, and the display screens and holographic projections also changed, gradually showing more key data.
The above is the experimental data on the 70th floor:
·Regardless of the number of floors, as long as there are windows to see the outside scenery, what you can see is the scene on the 4th to 5th floors of the original residential building.
·Although the position of the red button is mostly random, it has certain regularity on some floors. For example, the button on the 45th floor (garage) must be located at the red headlight of a car.
·The shapes of the buttons are also different, and some even require unlocking some mechanisms to find them.
·Similar to the notification of game rules, players are notified of floor information through some abnormal means similar to telepathy.
·Generally speaking, the higher the number of floors, the larger the floor area.
·This game has risks of death, such as failure to find the button, lack of food due to staying on the same level for too long, or injury.
·After successfully leaving, the individual will be mentally affected, showing a high appreciation for the experience of 721 and vague memory of the facility, and will recommend others to go there.
…
It contains a lot of experimental data, as well as a lot of genetic data and personnel in the experimental process. Xia Xiu marked them one by one. After these people appear, they will be taken into custody and controlled by the Kingdom of Heaven.
"Cough cough cough~ You know...what are you doing..."
Cameron, who was casually pulled out by Xia Xiu and thrown to the ground, growled unwillingly at him.
"I know, I'm dealing with the mess you left behind." Xia Xiu replied with two minds.
He is a kind-hearted person, and when faced with a dying person, he is willing to chat with him for a few words.
"You are destroying Utopia!!!" Cameron said angrily.
"Utopia?"
The blond young man was happy. He pointed to the huge genetic module read from the chip, "That's it?"
"Don't you understand?"
Facing Xia Xiu's disdain, Cameron looked at the data on the screen dreamily.
"Utilize the recipient technology of the Bluegrass State Blood Center to comprehensively analyze each person's genetic information; build a huge genetic database here to store each person's genetic data; based on the genetic analysis results, allocate humans to the most suitable for their genetic characteristics
occupations and roles; provide targeted education and training for each individual to ensure that they can perform at their best in their assigned occupations."
"Finally, reorganize social classes to make them more consistent with the results of genetic distribution, eliminate inequalities based on birth, wealth and other factors, and establish a new social order based on ability."
Cameron looked extremely enthusiastic, while Xia Xiu stopped what he was doing and asked:
"Is this the awakening of the inner temple, or how do you think you can defeat the one-dimensional society?"
"Of course!" Cameron, who was thinking feverishly, was already showing signs of losing his mind. This was a symbol of his comeback.
"The world is sick, or in other words, human society is sick."
"The entire society has become one-dimensional, and humans have also become one-dimensional people."
"Humanity has clearly entered an advanced industrial society and an extraordinary quantitative society - this is the power of technological rationality.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, humans have not become better because of this, and Utopia has not been established because of this; real technological rationality should not be what Terra looks like now.
In Terra, technical rationality became the dominant force in society, and it was used to strengthen the existing social order and power structure rather than to liberate mankind.
Technology, as a formal thing, is used as a tool of oppression, not just through the way it operates or is applied, but through its own technical logic.
Technology has become the great organizer of society, shaping, integrating and solidifying new forms of social life.
Technical logic has therefore become a political logic, a powerful and irresistible control force that not only guides the use of tools, but also defines the way and purpose of life.
Individuals find their place and satisfaction within the framework of technology, but this is done under given, unchangeable conditions set by existing power structures."
"Social structure and culture tend to be uniform and standardized. In such a society, mainstream culture strengthens consumerism through mass media, advertising and industrialized lifestyles, making people's thoughts and behavior patterns become more and more similar.
.”
Cameron looked at the blond young man with despair for the future of human society.
In his view, individuals in a one-dimensional society have their thinking and behavior patterns assimilated by the society's mainstream values and consumer culture.
Their thoughts are homogeneous, they accept and internalize the information and values provided by mainstream media and culture, and lack the ability to think independently and critically analyze.
One-dimensional people adapt to the roles and expectations given by society and rarely question or resist unfair or oppressive social structures.
Driven by material consumption and social norms, it is difficult for one-dimensional people to achieve true self-realization and spiritual development, and their life focus is often focused on satisfying immediate material and sensory needs.
This one-dimensional society is pathological and needs to be corrected.
"This kind of technical rationality should benefit mankind through planning."
"Liberating a one-dimensional society through top-down control and planning."
"Let the entire human society wake up and have... awareness of their own future life!!!"
When Cameron said this, his eyes were so enthusiastic.
The look in his eyes was real.
This is the goal he has found and can fight for his whole life.
In the extraordinary quantified Terra, is there anything more exciting than "liberating" all mankind?
The first sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven looked at Cameron, whose eyes were genuine, and was silent for a while.
Later, he asked:
"Are you a pursuer of liberalism or a pursuer of utopianism?"
"What?" Cameron was stunned. He replied subconsciously, "Utopia is freedom, and what we pursue is human freedom."
"It seems you still don't understand." Xia Xiu shook his head.
"A slight change in the meaning of the word 'liberty' can make certain arguments seem reasonable."
"Small changes like this are crucial."
"For the great advocates of political freedom, freedom means freedom from coercion, freedom from the tyranny of others, freedom from the constraints that leave people no choice but to
Ability to obey their superiors.
Today, however, the new freedom you seek is freedom from necessity, freedom from circumstances that limit the choices we all have, even if those limitations may be more severe for some than for others.
Before people can truly gain freedom, they must break the ‘tyranny of material scarcity’ and get rid of the ‘shackles of the social system’.”
The fourth sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven looked at Cameron with a different emotion in his eyes. It was an indescribable silence about the inner essence of something he pursued.
"There is no doubt that the promise of greater freedom has become one of the most effective tools in utopian propaganda, and many people sincerely believe that utopianism can bring freedom."
"Yet it would be a tragic irony if the paths thought to lead to freedom actually led to slavery."
"Do you really understand and see the path you are pursuing, and are you ready to take the helm?"
Cameron Brady Turner's consciousness tranced for a moment, and he saw the compassionate divinity revealed in the flawless face of the blond young man in front of him.
"I..." He wanted to say something, but his consciousness had passed its final retention period.
He is about to die.
The fourth sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven looked at Cameron who was about to die, "You, you guys, who claim to be the helmsmen of the future of mankind, obviously have not yet understood the price to pay to build a utopia on Terra."
"There is no sacrifice too big to bear, no betrayal too small to ignore - it will only be part of the price, and you regard the price as the truth."
"You are not on the road to pursuing freedom and liberating mankind."
Cameron moved his mouth, trying to say something back, but the light in his eyes gradually dissipated.
