Fifty Years

In this way, the 25th year since the human branch of the Brilliant Galaxy reached the ground is another election year...

Because of a series of social benefits such as the "Early Retirement Bill" and the "6-hour work system", the working hours of a large number of people have been reduced, and the efficiency has dropped. The extra shelters have not yet been repaired, so the two forces began to quarrel with each other again. , the accusation is the responsibility of the other party.

"Something went wrong, the large shelter hasn't been built yet! "

"It All Comes Down to Fifteen Years Ago!" "

However, some sociologists were surprised to find that the public is no longer too sensitive to building additional shelters, and this moral high ground is no longer as effective as it used to be.

The two sides kept shouting slogans, attacking each other, and fighting like chicken blood for decades. The people's sense of moral guilt has gradually disappeared, and they even become a little disgusted.

If all kinds of media talk about it every day, but it has not been completed after so many years, even if it is a good thing, it will always produce stronger and stronger rebellious emotions on the psychological level.

Human beings are always good at forgetting creatures. This extra shelter can be built well, of course it is the best. If it can't be repaired, it is good to build half of it, at least it can barely accommodate people!

You can't be morally kidnapped all day long, it's really shocking to watch!

This change of thinking at the social level has also made many people with more conservative ideas feel very uncomfortable. They believe that the current human civilization seems to have undergone great changes.

In the 25th year after reaching the ground, the blue trend of thought has revived again, forming a new third-party party!

Lin Yingdong is the representative of the third-party party. He never thought that he would completely change his thinking in just 25 years.

"What shit is freedom!"

"If this continues, it will only become a pile of living garbage!"

"A bunch of walking dead!"

He felt that the entire civilization would collapse if the smog continued like this!

However, only a small number of people can change their minds. It is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality, and it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance. This third-party party, at most, just shouts slogans on the Internet. It has never been in power, nor has it won any seats.

They tried hard to make their own voices, and finally shouted to the top of their lungs, but not many people paid attention to them. Instead, they were accused of being extreme radicals and reviled by the media.

It was only then that Lin Yingdong realized that the general trend of the whole society had turned around, and the opportunity was completely missed... At first, the rebound of the whole society was violent. Later, this rebound became weaker and weaker.

Because every partisan competition, as well as various bills promulgated, are weakening the original social inertia. Man is a social animal. If the whole society is changing, the thinking of most people will also change accordingly. This is also the main reason why extraordinary people are so rare. Most people do not have the ability to think alone.

Time flies, 30 years have passed...

In a competitive environment, these ruling parties have obviously become smarter. In order to pursue the power that they can come to power, they have begun to actively grant more freedom to the people. Otherwise, another party will definitely promulgate a more tempting bill and take the opportunity to oust him.

The two sides have been biting for such a long time and have felt the taste of power, so it is absolutely impossible to admit defeat to the other party.

Everyone is not very satisfied with the six-hour work system, so simply change it to a five-hour work system, and then simply change it to a four-hour work system!

Everyone is satisfied with the four-hour working system!

It's impossible to turn into three hours, two hours, or not work at all, right? In this way, it is the naked civilization of the perishers, and the people dare not touch such a bottom line for the time being.

Since the working hours can no longer be reduced, there is always something else that can please the people...for example, education?

On this remote planet, two naive political parties do not have their own program, let alone their own ideology. They just want to gain power and simply please the people.

"They spread the gunpowder on the students again, reducing the study time, engaging in happy education, etc. When the students grow up, they also have the right to vote. The students know who treats them well!"

"Of course the kids are so happy. Who wants to be in school all the time? It would be nice to have an extra 2 hours a day!"

Immediately afterwards, the idea was brought to the most sensitive virtual world. This thing has always been strictly controlled, and it is easy to arouse the vigilance and resentment of the public.

So they were very clever, and used the method of sidestepping the ball to win the favor of the people.

"... Increase the annual travel quota for the virtual world from 15 days a year to 20 days!"

Virtual world technology, there is an experience quota every year, you can play games, travel in different worlds, or eat in it, ski, etc. There are many things you can do, but there are only 15 days in a year The quota, is it too much?

Now that it has been raised to 20 days, people are of course happy to see it, and they will not be disgusted.

"Then it was raised to 25 days, 30 days..."

So what if you just travel there?

"And then gradually opened up higher permissions in the virtual world!"

In the original virtual world games, in order to prevent addiction, there are many things that cannot be done in the real world, and cannot be done. For example, flying in the air, or "superman mode", these are impossible to do, but now, it can finally be done!

"Then, the minimum standard for entering the virtual world was lowered... Originally, it was the limit of aging, but now, the standard has been lowered!"

"Fifty years, it only took fifty years!"

Hearing the roar of the middle-aged man on the stage, Zhang Yuan was frightened one after another. He could already predict what would happen next.

He couldn't help sighing slightly.

How easy it is for a civilization to play itself to death!

Thus, in the fiftieth year, two rival parties suddenly discovered that the government had lost control of civilization as a whole. The people have begun to spontaneously pursue higher freedom, and people no longer need the government. Does the so-called bullshit policy make any sense? Need the government to formulate it?

The reason why this happened is also very simple.

On the one hand, the virtual world is constantly open and tempting.

On the other hand, there has been a fundamental change in the social atmosphere.

A person with an eight-hour work system has far stronger self-discipline than a person with a four-hour work system. People who work eight hours will feel guilty if they take too long a break.

4-hour working system, from 8:30 am to 12:30 noon every day, the entire work task is completed, followed by a lot of personal free time.

What do you do with so much free time?

Of course it is rest and entertainment. How many people can use it to improve themselves?

People with a 4-hour workday will not feel guilty at all if they do not work for a long time. Instead, he grew more and more disgusted with work.

To give another simple example, after a student has played wildly for a weekend, he will find that his knowledge is a lot rusty when he goes to school on Monday. Due to two days of frantic play, his concentration will become very inattentive, he will not be able to keep up with the class, and it often takes a long time to adjust to a normal state.

The same is true for the 4-hour working system, which reduces not only working hours, but personal status.

8-hour work system, yesterday's work is continuous with today's work, and you can quickly enter the working state after adjusting for ten minutes.

With a 4-hour working system, people have to spend a lot of time adjusting their state after a lot of entertainment. Sometimes I adjusted and adjusted, and found that half a day had passed, and then got off work, but did nothing, and it was time for a break again...

In this way, what is the difference between working 4 hours and working 0 hours?

Time passed day by day like this. The so-called "four hours of focused work surpassed the previous eight hours" quickly became empty talk, and then it evolved into everyone deserting during working hours, or simply Absent from work, there is nothing important to do anyway.

Work becomes a surface form.

The social atmosphere collapsed in this way, but the two parties who were busy blaming each other did not know this, and they gradually lost their ability to control the society. As a result, the entire society has evolved into an anarchy model. In people's minds, anarchy is the most "free" state.
