fleet citizen

After returning home, Qin Jianguo was still complaining that Yuan Yu's spaceship driver's license must have been bought.

Mint was a little strange: "How is that possible? The spaceship piloting qualifications of fleet citizens are issued by the committee, and the testing of personal piloting qualifications also needs to be connected to the Internet. If it is forged, the committee will definitely find out."

"This is just a joke." Qin Jianguo tapped his head lightly with the end of his chopsticks, "Have a sense of humor, little comrade."

"But such a joke is illogical," Yuan Yu said, "at a time when fleet piloting qualifications have never been available for purchase."

"There is no fleet, but it was in the era of the mother star." Qin Jianguo shrugged and said, "When people still drive cars, I bought my driver's license. In the era of capitalism, you can't buy anything. ,Right?"

"Even human life can be bought." Sergey also interjected lightly at this time.

"That's right." Qin Jianguo said while eating honey-roasted king crab legs, "What did you say? The old society was 'cannibalizing'. I still remember that some people jumped off the building in our factory at that time, and most of them were also killed later. have eaten."

(Note: The factory jump refers to the famous Fu X Kang incident)

Sergey frowned slightly, raised his hand and poked him on the head: "Everyone is eating, why do you say this disgusting everyone?"

Qin Jianguo smiled and continued to eat his food.And Yuan Yu and Sergey didn't react at all, it was probably just a joke.Only Mint suddenly remembered that in the settlement of the pedestal class he used to live in, the employees who were expelled from the factory jumped from the roof, and the blood seeped into the gaps in the steel plates and could no longer be washed... He felt unable to speak Feeling sick, I quickly drank two spoonfuls of pimple soup to suppress it.

He suddenly realized that the "old society" that Qin Jianguo and the others talked about was actually not "old" at all. The so-called era of capitalism still exists on those colonial planets and is becoming more and more prosperous.The apex class rules the base class, and the base class works to open up new colonized planets for the apex class. In this mode of survival, the "planetary people" have been multiplying and spreading from the human home planet earth to the present 23 planet, and will expand to a larger star field.

And this survival mode is just a joke in the eyes of most fleet citizens.They don't understand the colonial planets, and think that such injustice and oppression are only found in the "old society", but they don't know that for them, the colonial planets are basically the same as the "old society" except for the improvement of their technological level.However, those oppressed base classes in the "old society" are still complacent about the improvement of those technological levels, and they don't realize that no matter how prosperous the colonial planet is, those things belong to the top class and have nothing to do with them ——The selfless dedication to the so-called country, the so-called alliance, and the so-called planet seems so ridiculous.

Mint didn't dare to think about what he could do for the base class like him on those colonized planets. Now he only hoped to be able to join the fleet and become a truly free person, not a canned labor force of the apex class.If he is lucky enough to join the fleet, he may be able to use this to prove to the committee that "planetary people" can also have the thoughts and standpoints of fleet citizens, and he hopes that the committee can take a look at his memory and take a look at the most important things in Zhuyu. The poor base class settlements, how those base classes lived a life of oppression and loss of dignity.He hopes that the fleet can save them, save those who are still living in the "old society", because perhaps only the fleet can really save them.

Yuan Yu was sitting across from Mint when he was having a meal. Seeing that he had been in a bad mood since hearing Qin Jianguo say "cannibalism", he thought that he was really disgusted by Qin Jianguo's words, so he quickly checked in the head of the fleet. After reading the relevant information, he explained: "The 'cannibalism' mentioned by Lu Xun in "Diary of a Madman" is just a metaphor. They were all written with the words 'benevolence, righteousness and morality'. I couldn't sleep anyway, and after reading it carefully half the night, I saw the words between the words. There were two words 'eat people' written all over the book." mentioned in the article 'Cannibalism' refers to the distortion of human nature by feudal ethics, not real cannibalism, which is basically different from the 'cannibalism' you imagine."

"That's right," Qin Jianguo also found that Mint's face was wrong, and quickly added, "I also said it was a metaphor. You see, Lu Xun said that feudal ethics oppressed the common people called 'cannibalism', so big capitalists can also exploit the common people." It's called 'cannibalism', right? They jumped off the building because they were exploited so that they couldn't survive, and that's what I meant by 'being eaten'." He grabbed Sergey again, "Only Sergey got it wrong. , Little Mint, if you feel disgusted, it's all his fault!"

Sergey took the scapegoat inexplicably, but he didn't defend himself, he just stopped the two of them from saying "cannibalism" again: "You two are enough, even if it's just a metaphor at the beginning, it's okay if you say it too many times. I feel sick. Eat well, if you don’t eat, I will take the plate away.”

After hearing his warning, Yuan Yu and Qin Jianguo quickly shut up and ate obediently.Sergey looked at Mint with some concern. He knew that Yuan Yu was the kind of guy who was invulnerable to all kinds of poisons, and Qin Jianguo was used to making all kinds of jokes, but Mint was a good boy, and he was only 22 years old. A real "child" in the true sense of the age.Sergey was a little worried that Yuan Yu and Qin Jianguo would get together, and something big might happen in the future, which would leave a psychological shadow on Mint.

But who knows that Mint is not disgusting because of "cannibalism" itself, but it is precisely because of the fate of those poor people who are exploited and oppressed that it is derived from this.

But it's not good to say these things when everyone is happy to eat.Mint just forced a smile to cover it up by eating a honey-roasted king crab leg.

Both Qin Jianguo and Sergey thought he was disgusted for a while and passed away, but Yuan Yu could guess that he must have thought of his past in Zhuyu.Yuan Yu chose Mint for no reason. After meeting him at that time, Yuan Yu searched the basic information of Mint from Zhuyu's planetary network, and found that he was born in a poor B-class family. His father used to work in a factory. There was an accident at work, and he was the only child in the family.The lower you go, the more oppressed you can feel.

Yuan Yu believes that after learning more about scientific socialism in the fleet, in the bottom of the boy's heart, his class consciousness is gradually awakening.She has never felt this way about the planets brought to the fleet before, but this time, she believes that Mint can do it, and he can join the fleet to prove that the human mind can break through the limitations of the environment and experience—and this will be the basis for liberating colonized planets.
