Chapter 2979 Crisis of Trust
The Star Cluster Council is confident of victory and feels that their plan is perfect. Now there is only one step left to success, which is to destroy Mobile Ultraman.
Why are they so confident? Of course, it is because the people on Earth are supporting them. Listen to this voice.
"Ultraman is the real culprit of the destruction of the universe. Humans are not qualified to own the earth. For the beautiful blue world, we must believe in the Star Cluster Council!"
Listen to the shouts from the heart of these earthlings. These people are supporting the Star Cluster Council. These voices are the results of the Star Cluster Council. Now the earthlings are slowly awakening from the belief in Ultraman and are realizing the evil of Ultraman.
The mainstream public opinion is full of voices that reject Ultraman and draw a clear line with Ultraman.
Because there are many surrenderists and they have resources to further promote, any resistance and objective voices have been drowned out. But the absence does not mean that no one resists.
The Kurt team is trying to resist. Ambassador Mephisto, who betrayed the parliament, told them that the core of the Star Cluster Council is actually controlled by a group of people called the 'Jetton Core'. These people planned all the plans of the Star Cluster Council and determined the final direction of the Star Cluster Council.
Of course, this information is of no significance to the Kurt team. The biggest role is probably to tell the Kurt team that the real bad guys are only a small minority, and the Star Cluster Council is still a good group. As long as they defeat this small group of people, they will win. There is no need to give benefits to the aliens, and there is no need to defeat the entire Star Cluster Council.
Just defeat a small group of people, because this small group of people is evil, and most people are good people who are deceived.
Duran said that this kind of thing is really self-deception. A small group of people also promised benefits, so everyone will follow them. If the people in the core of Jetton only ask for benefits from the Star Cluster Council, then no one will follow them.
No one in this world is stupid, and everyone looks at benefits. Of course, some people may be blinded by the promise of rich benefits, but it is also for benefits, not just thinking about devoting themselves.
Whether it is the Star Cluster Council or the core of Jetton, the way of operation is the same, all of which is to give benefits to make more people follow themselves. Then expand, grab external benefits and distribute them to aliens.
Does defeating the core of Jetton change the rules of the game?
In fact, it cannot be changed, and the aliens still have to be settled. Otherwise, they will create trouble for humans, just like 40 years ago. 40 years ago, even if there was no Star Cluster Council, no Jetton core, and even no universe collapse, aliens still came to Earthlings to transfer risks.
So it is really too young to think that defeating the Jetton core will solve all problems.
"Earthlings have to come up with their own rules." Duran said that the rules are the distribution method, and the distribution method is also a way to solve risks.
If no plan is proposed, the aliens will follow the original plan, and the Earth will still be the object of risk transfer.
The Kot team said that they only care about fighting, regardless of the plan, and they only need to defeat the Jetton core, and they don't care about anything else. As for whether Earthlings and aliens can live in harmony in the end, it is none of their business. Anyway, as long as the aliens threaten Earthlings, they will take action.
"Tsk tsk, what is the difference between this mentality and the anti-alien forces at the beginning? At the beginning, it was because Earthlings did not ensure the interests of aliens, so they regarded aliens as enemies that should be eliminated and eliminated them." Duran said that if the plan is not changed and only the battle is carried out, the ending will be the same as that year.
Back then, the anti-alien forces only fought and eliminated the aliens in a very "reasonable" way.
So we have to break the boundaries. The laws of the earth must protect both humans and aliens. As long as the aliens also abide by the laws of the earth, their interests should also be protected.
But this means that humans have to compete with aliens on the same stage, so humans will definitely face various disadvantages, and the resources of human society are likely to tilt towards aliens. It is not certain whether aliens will be as tolerant as humans at that time.
Humans have allocated resources, but they may not get rewards.
Of course, there will definitely be a group of humans who will adapt to the new social rules through learning in the future. They will continue to improve their strength and compete with aliens. But in the short term, human resources will definitely tilt towards aliens.
The energy of the earth is limited. If the energy tilts towards one side, the other side will suffer.
So in the end, it is still a chain of suspicion. How can we believe that aliens will give back to humans after getting resources? This is the same as the suspicion between humans. How can we believe that the rich will drive the rich later? How can we believe that capitalists will promote productivity? How can we believe that religious priests will bring order?
How can people who hand over resources believe that those who concentrate resources will give back later?
This is the role of the social contract. This contract is the basis for everyone to believe. If anyone does not abide by the contract, everyone can punish him.
Human beings have many social contracts, and religion is the most common one. Abiding by religious teachings can make people trust each other. Religion is that the rich pay more and the poor pay less, and then when natural disasters and man-made disasters occur, the church will give some alms to help the poor through difficulties. The rich can also benefit from tax avoidance through religion, rather than just doing good deeds.
Of course, the king does not like this method of religion, but the king cannot find other solutions to replace the role of religion in society. The king cannot make everyone trust each other, so he can only believe in religion.
The disadvantage of religion is that different religions cannot trust each other. This trust only exists under one religion and will not work outside the door.
Humans do not have a unified social contract with each other, let alone with aliens. So how can humans believe that after protecting the interests of aliens, aliens will not take over and become the host? Similarly, aliens cannot believe that humans will treat them fairly.
"So breaking through the boundaries and breaking the chain of suspicion requires a social contract that everyone can accept. At the same time, humans and aliens must be placed on the same starting line." Duran said that it was a critical moment and breaking the boundaries was a matter of one move.
Cero and Adad also knew that it was a critical moment, but the more it was like this, the more difficult it was. If it was easy, the aliens would have solved the problem long ago.
Adad said: "The Ampera people and the Star Cluster Council are actually expanding outward, so that the aliens have common interests and everyone goes to rob together, so they can unite together. There is no real social contract that makes everyone trust each other. Once they can't rob, the aliens will start a war."
The Ampera people's contract is similar to the Zhou Li of the Zhou Emperor, which is to worship an altar, then stand in a row, and then everyone will expand the territory together. This method can be continued when there is a lot of land. Once it cannot be expanded, it is over.
After that, the social contract in the Central Plains has been changing, from Zhouli to the resonance between heaven and man, then to the principle of keeping the law of heaven and eliminating human desires, and finally to everyone being ready to struggle for life.
Zhouli requires the Zhou emperor to be virtuous, that is, to distribute. The resonance between heaven and man believes that the changes in heaven and earth are related to the emperor's behavior, so the emperor must be responsible for natural disasters and man-made disasters. The principle of keeping the law of heaven and eliminating human desires believes that marriage and childbirth are the law of heaven, and having three wives and four concubines is not right. People should live according to the law of heaven, not according to desires, so as to unite a large number of poor families.
The social contract in the Central Plains has been changing, but generally speaking, it is a process of social contract sinking, but this change will not be used on aliens for a while.
