Chapter 412 The Blessing of the Heart of Terra (5600)(1/2)
Chapter 1039 The Blessing of the Heart of Terra (5600)
It's actually a bit unpleasant to say, but the most powerful force of the public opinion army is not to show one's "goodness" to others and then make people yearn for it - yearning is indeed powerful, but yearning that is too far away will not make people yearn for it.
Feeling shaken may even make some outstanding people want to build their own country from the bottom of their hearts, which will then achieve the opposite effect, that is, they will not be able to attract votes.
But the good thing is that compared with the experiences and lessons learned back home, the feelings of family and country here in Terra are not very strong.
Those big forces are not so much nation-states as they are human gathering areas that appear around the fifth energy level...a group of people with the same origin, covered in the skins of different countries.
In the final analysis, everyone was originally a descendant of the Federation of Terra, a civilization from the previous era, and there was no decisive difference between them.
This is the main attack point of the public opinion army.
[Reveal! The truth about the civilization of the previous era...]
[Shocking! The consistency of the people of gold, people of red, people of iron and people of white! Were they all one family five hundred years ago? 】
[The history of scattered migration! Human distribution and subsequent diffusion paths in the lost era]
And so on, these articles that look like street stall literature or civil science papers are just right for this era - not to mention, these just look sensational and eye-catching, but in fact they are not street stalls, but the real reality.
.
In the pre-era civilization, everyone was indeed one family - any race or country was meaningless, they were all 'peace zones' divided by later generations based on the power of the refuge.
The four major peoples are essentially the same kind of people, and they differentiate and adapt according to different environments. This technology was first used on crystal dragons, and later on humans. In a sense, the civilized people of the pre-era are the crystallization of the human form.
dragon.
For a time, similar papers and reading materials on 'Origin Science Popularization' and 'Revelation of Civilized People in the Pre-Era' spread to surrounding areas along the channels of the Silver Peak Territory.
The Empire, Canaan Moore, Cangtian Royal Court, Seven Cities Alliance, even Junling Castle... and even places further away.
But most importantly, the focus of this kind of propaganda...
It's in the Land of Fire.
For a time, the local media in Feiyandi and the writers of various newspapers were confused.
It is their bounden duty to quarrel with the imperial media. They have long been accustomed to it, and they can even say that they are comfortable with it.
No matter what kind of questioning, sarcasm, or even hostile propaganda from the empire, they can easily accept it, then neutralize the attack power and attack the empire's shortcomings in turn.
But this time, the enemy is quite different.
Because the public opinion army of the Silver Peak Leader never fights head-on.
They don't discuss any 'responsibility' or 'who is right or wrong', they don't even care about 'who loses and who wins', they just simply state a fact.
That is, all the countries in the Terran Era should not exist in essence - they are all ancient behemoths, part of the Terran Federation in the previous era.
The majority of the people on this side of the empire are the people of gold, mainly members of the previous era civilization shelters such as Setar Sanctuary, Don Zola Sanctuary, and Quinor Sanctuary, while the people on the other side of the Flying Flame Land are dominated by the red people.
The main race is mostly from Absalom and Nemathras refuges.
Yes, it is the origin of the two major bloodlines: whether it is the Nirmathas bloodline or the Absalom bloodline, they essentially represent the residents who settled in these two major refuges, and the most powerful ruler among them
, so they took the name of the refuge as their surname, just like the Setar royal family.
There is no decisive difference between the Empire and the Flying Flame Land: both sides were originally two branches of the same plan. One needs to deal with a complex ecological environment, and the other needs to face a corrosive and dangerous environment.
As for the Iron People and the White People, one has to deal with a harsh and desolate ecological environment, and the other has to deal with a heterogeneous ecology dominated by psychic energy.
All people have one origin.
"We are not different. We are all humans, and we are all Terran people on the continent of Terra."
This is a core point of view output by the main force of the public opinion army. It does not seem to have any hostility, and there is no point worthy of refutation - but the sentence itself is enough to make the people of Feiyan furious.
Because, ‘Flying Flame Earth People’ and ‘Imperial People’ should be different.
——We are noble, they are inferior.
——We are innocent, they are cruel.
——We are excellent, they are corrupt.
——We have been correct since ancient times. Our traditions and customs have proved this. It was just that we were defeated due to some accidents some time ago, but the people of Feiyan will not be defeated because we are noble Feiyan.
Local people, the enemy is the despicable Imperial people!
There is no need to analyze technology, no need to think about the strength of our enemies and ourselves, and no need to honestly face one's own shortcomings and mistakes.
Just repeating some words like famous aphorisms can bring courage and cover up failure.
It seems that we only need to distinguish between 'us' and 'them' to determine the winner.
But this won't work.
If it had been before, before everyone had accepted the will of Inaga II and heard the declaration of perpetual motion, this approach might have been feasible - but now, all fig leaves have been thrown away, and the people are no longer influenced by various
The names are divided vertically, but are clearly divided into two classes.
The powerful ‘world leaders’, and the voting ‘majority’.
‘Us’ and ‘them’ no longer exist.
Not to mention, the analysis paper originating from the Silver Peak Territory clearly explains the origins of all the core traditions of the Flying Flame Land.
The reason why they are martial is because in the early days when they transformed from a refuge to a national force, there were many internal tribes fighting for water sources and breeding grounds, so they respected strength and needed a strong man who had the courage to make decisions and act to lead them.
Compete for resources.
The reason why they believe in repaying kindness is because if they do not repay kindness, they will not get help from others. In that chaotic lost era, people could not believe in any contract and could only look at the 'morality' and 'reputation' of people's hearts.
Only those with a reputation for kindness can thrive. Without kindness, even bandits will sneer at you.
As for revenge, we will never let you get what we can't get. On the contrary, it is a deterrent for the weak. No matter how powerful you are, as long as you dare to let me bleed, I will definitely let you bleed, even if you let us survive.
A person will inevitably rush into your tribe with the epidemic virus, pollute the water sources and oases, make you vomit out everything you have eaten before, and even cause serious injuries.
Only in this way can the weaker tribes intimidate the larger tribes and absorb them with gentle methods, instead of simply killing the men and children, capturing the women, and completely absorbing and transforming them.
Only in this way can Feiyan Land be Feiyan Land and maintain their order and peace.
——This is not special.
As written in the paper, the author listed in detail many similar regions and forces on the continent of Terra. They all have similar traditions and civilizations, and even their diets are similar.
As soon as this paper came out, the major media outlets in Feiyan were excited and crazily criticized this idea.
——The Silver Peak Leader is obliterating their specialness! He is trying to belittle our culture and tradition to achieve his ulterior purpose!
But to be honest, this may be justified when it comes to the countries that were the predecessors of the Terra Federation of Civilizations in the Pre-Era, those ancient civilizations that have at least several thousand years of history. They are traditions that began in the Stone Age.
Deep into the bones.
However, in the current post-apocalyptic civilizations such as the Terra Era, the official historical records of the Eight Classics are only seven hundred years old, and they all start from scratch with a blank sheet of paper, so there is no traditional culture and tradition.
In essence, it is nothing more than the expansion of the rules of the refuge and the specialization of geopolitics.
Does this specialness really make sense?
Ian believes that meaning can indeed unite people's minds and help them survive in the lost era.
But in the Age of Terra, this is of little use.
Moreover, it is all bad for his goal of unifying Terra.
Not to mention, this is not a good thing for the arcane path.
The intention is to add various prefixes in front of his own power, and then just as a Feiyan native, he can confidently say that he is a martial and cheerful person who must repay his grudges - just as a Feiyan native, he can
It is natural to claim many virtues...
Isn't this a lie and self-deception?
There are too many Feiyan people who simply cannot abide by the virtues of the so-called "Feiyan people" and live as "strong warriors" that Feiyan advocates. They are the same as ordinary people in other areas on this continent.
Just as ordinary as you are.
Of course, they are also brave and can become heroes, and even become a true "Flying Flame" after hard work.
If it is such a person, Ian will recognize the other person as a hero, and such a person will definitely become a third-level person.
But that must be something that can only be achieved by working hard and acting in compliance with those morals and codes, not just something that can be obtained naturally by using the name "Flying Flame Earthman".
Being too immersed in this vast illusion of 'us' and not improving yourself will make people unable to sublimate themselves, and then they will be stuck at the boundary between the first and second energy levels, let alone completely reinvent themselves and find their own.
Dreams and roads have reached the third level.
This is what Ian wants to do.
If he wants to conquer the whole world, he must eliminate all the 'special', eliminate all the self-righteous 'extraordinary', eliminate all the 'sanctuary people', all the 'Flying Flame Earth people', 'Imperial people' and 'Cangtian Royal Court people'.
Let humans be human again.
Even, in the end, he even wanted to eliminate the 'Silver Peak Leader' and the 'Ordinary People', and completely form a pure human community.
He wants human beings to find themselves and choose to be themselves, a special, unique self that cannot be described as "ordinary".
Then countless 'different selves' spontaneously formed a brand new 'Federation of Terra'.
But that's the ultimate goal.
To be continued...
