Chapter 2267: Those Who Keep Company with the Bad Will Become Bad

In the dream, Rick has raised his alert level. He knows that he is in danger now. Duran will definitely not let him go easily.

He must not surrender. Rick thought that he could also analyze Duran. In his opinion, Duran's behavior is really hard to understand because it is too abnormal. As a powerful strong man, he is working hard to build an orderly world. This is completely thankless for Duran. Why would anyone do something that has no benefits? Besides, Duran violates the reality of the extinction of the universe. The world will be destroyed sooner or later, so he should enjoy it instead of self-discipline. Self-discipline cannot change the fate of the destruction of the world. Duran's behavior will only make the world more harsh and make survival more difficult.

Rick began to analyze Duran's ideas, but Duran's ideas were too difficult for him to understand. Rick knew that his ideas were very simple, so Duran quickly grasped them. He only chose one of the two, but Duran wanted them all, and used a difficult to understand way of thinking to force things that were originally unrelated together.

"Duran's idea is completely illogical, it's just pure life experience." In the end, Rick found that Duran didn't talk about logic, he only talked about experience, so he could say whatever he wanted, in short, he was unreasonable.

Rick thought about why his methods were always reversed by Duran before, because Duran was always adjusting his strategy, not sticking to it.

It's difficult. Although he analyzed Duran's style, Rick obviously couldn't adapt to it, because he couldn't predict what moves Duran would use in the future.

"What are you thinking about?" Duran saw that Rick suddenly stopped talking, asking if Rick was reflecting?

"Duran, you are indeed a difficult opponent, but you guys should not be complacent, your experience can't change the truth." Rick said.

"Truth." Duran said, does this thing really exist? "You said the truth is that the universe must be destroyed. Yes, this is inevitable, because matter cannot win over time. But nihilism is not the truth, so you are changing the concept. There is no absolute standard for life."

"Since there is no unified standard, why do you want to change the world?" "You don't have any logical reason. In fact, it's just your life experience. Because your inertial thinking thinks this is better, you promote it. But do you dare to say that this is also 100% accurate?" Rick also grasped Duran's essence. He did not oppose Duran's behavior but opposed Duran's life experience.

Times are different, life is different, and it is really wrong to judge the future with life experience.

Oh? Duran knew that Rick had finally grasped the conflict of his ideologies, and now it was the beginning of the real confrontation.

The education of both sides determined the ideologies of both sides, and the ideologies of both sides determined their different worldviews, and finally they were at loggerheads.

"Life experience is at least a reference, and it is better than doing nothing because you know the universe will be destroyed. Life is about learning from experience to make further progress."

"But experience is just a cycle. Take the earth for example. Since the Industrial Revolution, countries and nations have been like a seesaw, with nationalism prevailing for a while and nationalism prevailing for a while, and it keeps on repeating. This is experience. What's the use? Experience cannot help us break through reality and break the shackles. Experience only makes us keep going in circles."

Rick is right. After the Industrial Revolution, industrial countries promoted nationalism in order to better develop industry and unite people's hearts, which greatly increased the strength of colonial countries. However, in the late colonial period, the surge in nationalism caused colonial countries to suffer losses, and colonies became independent countries one after another. After that, capital developed, and capital did not want to be restricted by the state, so it suppressed nationalism and developed nationalism, which made globalization progress greatly. But later, capital made a lot of money, but more ordinary people could not even drink soup, so they realized that they had to use the state to restrict capital, so nationalism began again.

So human experience is to keep seeingsaw between nations and countries, and there is no progress at all. Duran uses experience to guide the world, and this cycle will inevitably continue.

This is the limitation of empiricism, which lacks the courage to deal with things that have not happened and the courage to move forward.

Rick concluded: "The universe has no memory. You try to regard the memory of life as the memory of the universe, which is no different from me."

Both of them seized the weakness of the other and attacked him. Rick was right, because the experience itself is just a repetition of things that have happened.

However, Duran said: "The same experience has different internal factors and different executors. You also said that the country and the nation are constantly changing, but in fact the internal factors are different. In the early days of colonization, nationalism was promoted in order to develop industry and unite people. Later, the colonies needed the army to protect them, and the army needed the country to organize them, so nationalism began to prevail again. After the colonies developed, they did repeat the previous steps, but in the end, nationalism developed again because of the anti-colonial movement. The phenomenon is the same, but the internal is different. And then it was the development of capital that led to the rise of nationalism, and then it was because of the uneven distribution of resources that everyone hoped that the country would intervene." "You don't understand experience at all. Look through the phenomenon to the essence. Look at how much Jerry longed for order before he changed. Now that he has become stronger, he can also face your chaos and disorder with pleasure. These are all due to internal reasons. You only say that experience is standing still, but you don’t see that the reasons behind experience are constantly changing. As for why the changing internal causes lead to the same appearance, this can only be said to be the limitation of life, not the limitation of experience. "

"You are really eloquent, but you are courting death. Your theory is the other way around. No matter how hard we try, the final result will not change, because this is the limitation of life." Rick turned the tables, because it was Duran himself who said that the internal reasons are constantly changing, but the final result will not change.

"Well, it seems that you have made progress too."

This is no wonder. After all, Rick and Duran have debated many times. He is not stupid. He will also learn Duran's way of giving him back and use Duran's words to refute Duran.

Rick looked at Duran: "Since you admit that no matter what the internal factors are, the result is the same, you should have nothing to say now."

"It's not that I have nothing to say, but I think you actually lack a role model. Because you are a genius, you do everything by yourself, so you always think you are right. But after meeting me, haven't you changed? You started to learn, which means that you have realized that you can't win me if you continue to be stubborn. I am very relieved." Duran said that it didn't matter if he lost the debate, but he successfully influenced Rick and made Rick change his style.

Rick was also stunned. He realized that he was actually changed by Duran. He won the debate, but lost his life.
