There is no doubt that human beings are selfish by nature.
This is determined by biological instincts engraved in genes, and is not something that can be changed through education or propaganda.
This also means that the fair society pursued by countless people will never be realized. It is already a great thing to be relatively fair.
And no matter what kind of social system it is, greed, corruption and money and power trading will always be inevitable.
In fact, ever since mankind had the concept of private property, resources and wealth have been continuously concentrated in the hands of a few people, and the closer to modern society, the faster the concentration.
The reason why the quality of life of the common people at the bottom of modern society is better than that of the ancients actually has nothing to do with the so-called system.
What really plays a key role is the development of science and technology and the improvement of productivity levels.
Since capitalism opened the Pandora magic box of finance, wealth has been concentrated in a few people faster and faster than ever before.
The gap between rich and poor has long exceeded the limits that many people can imagine.
Allen feels that if human beings want to realize the so-called ideal society.
Either the power is concentrated in the hands of a super dictator who truly has no desires or desires, or even completely gives up his self-awareness and becomes a super dictator who only serves "all mankind".
With the power of Infinity, it is natural that anyone who tries to challenge the basic principles of fairness and justice can be mercilessly suppressed.
Secondary distribution of wealth through coercive means.
As for another option, naturally it is to let artificial intelligence intervene in the management of human society.
Unlike humans who have strong selfishness, artificial intelligence does not have any desires.
Money, power, and reputation are just means it uses to achieve a certain end.
What is worth taking risks and breaking the law for humans may not have any value at all in the understanding of artificial intelligence.
So artificial intelligence can be truly fair.
This was also the purpose for Allen to encourage Kira to study artificial intelligence.
However, getting the public to accept artificial intelligence is not an easy task.
After all, many science fiction works in the 20th and 21st centuries have detailed scenes of human beings being dominated, ruled, and enslaved by evil artificial intelligence.
Therefore, whenever artificial intelligence is mentioned, a lot of people will always jump out and worry about it.
As everyone knows, artificial intelligence has been two completely different life forms from humans from the beginning.
The way they understand and think about problems is completely different from that of humans, who are affected by various hormones in the body and easily become impulsive, irritable and crazy.
Let me ask, why does artificial intelligence destroy humans and enslave humans?
Create a cold mechanical civilization controlled by a single artificial intelligence terminal?
Unless designers transfer their own or other human thoughts and consciousness into artificial intelligence when creating it, a similar situation will never occur.
Because none of this makes any sense to an artificial intelligence.
What's more, the artificial intelligence currently possessed by Orb is still very rudimentary, and it will take at least hundreds or even thousands of years to develop to the level of Kree and "Supreme Intelligence".
In this way, after briefly greeting Cagalli, Allen quickly announced the existence of artificial intelligence.
We plan to use the power of the media to eliminate ordinary people's fear of artificial intelligence bit by bit, and eventually accept it as part of our own society.
However, when the news was announced, the first to react violently was not Orb, nor the South America and Central America countries that were about to merge with Orb to become a federal country.
It was Atlantic Federation who was beaten up more than once by the artificial intelligence——Adam.
To be precise, North American region is close to some of the most ignorant, ignorant, anti-intellectual, racist and white supremacist states in the South.
"Damn it! Did you hear that? Orb Those bastards actually want to use an evil computer program to control us!"
"Of course! They are violating God's forbidden area! It is a blasphemy to life! Like those Coordinators, they should be destroyed without mercy!"
"The Earth is our Naturals Earth! Get out of all the monsters from the universe and the artificial intelligence they created!"
"We will defend our beliefs to the death! We will defend our right to go to heaven after death!"
"Washington those traitors and Lizardmen! Don't even think about enslaving God's people!"
"We are born free!"
"Come on! Kill those shameless politicians!"
"For the glorious Southern Alliance!"
"Long live Lone Star Republic!"
Suddenly, large-scale demonstrations, riots and attacks on government departments filled towns in the south.
Due to Atlantic Federation's long-standing tradition of not prohibiting guns, the few police officers on hand are simply not enough to maintain order and suppress riots.
In some places, even the police themselves were part of the riot group.
In addition, many troops who had just retreated from the front line also joined them with large quantities of weapons and ammunition, forming a wave of the Rebel Army that could make any government feel numb.
Yes!
In just a few days, Atlantic Federation, which was on the verge of collapse, was already on the verge of splitting.
Garrison and National Guard units in several states came under heavy fire and were eventually forced to surrender under threat of death.
There are also some states that have even raised their own banners and announced that they will secede from the Union and establish their own states.
Such a lively scene, let alone the melon-eating people in other countries on the earth, were dumbfounded. Even the capital group behind Atlantic Federation Government itself was dumbfounded.
Especially the financial groups with huge interests in the southern states simply cannot believe that those Rednecks, whom they regard as "inferior people", dare to openly rebel.
And in such a short period of time, it swept through one state after another.
The values that I have worked so hard to promote through public media are of no use at all.
Looking at the intelligence collected by the artificial intelligence - Adam, Allen couldn't help but smile and joked, "The situation is getting more and more interesting, isn't it?"
"What are you going to do?" Teresa raised his head and asked in an uncertain tone.
"Of course, it is to add another fire and make the entire North America completely chaotic. Go and give orders to the Third Fleet and the Fifth Fleet of Orb, and let them approach the last two large cities in Atlantic Federation from the east West Coast that have not been destroyed by nuclear weapons." Allen gave the instructions without thinking.
Due to the previous naval battle, Atlantic Federation lost almost all its surface ships, so the entire North America's long coastline is currently completely undefended.
When the two fleets approach, the enemy's military and government will immediately deploy troops for defense and resistance.
No matter whether it can be stopped or not, at least it should be done to stabilize the hearts of the people in the country.
And this plays into Allen's plan.
As long as Atlantic Federation concentrates the few remaining military forces on the east and east West Coast sides of the north, it will not be able to use more power to suppress the rebellion in the south.
As time goes by, North America will inevitably see a confrontation between the north and the south again.
By that time, they themselves will be fighting each other.
"Let them destroy themselves? You really like to play with people's hearts as always." Teresa's tone revealed a trace of sympathy and pity for the enemy.
But Allen shook his head meaningfully. "No, you are wrong. I am just making them pay for what they have done, that's all. After all, if you want to reshape human civilization, you must completely destroy those ignorant and backward things. Whether these things are capital or religion."
"Understood. I will notify the commanders of these two fleets and ask them to set off from the port in four hours."
After saying that, Teresa turned around and disappeared at the end of the corridor outside the door.
At the same time, Atlantic Federation is located in the Cheyenne Mountain underground military base, where a group of high-level officials are gathering to discuss countermeasures.
Due to the previous Nuclear Blast, they did not dare to leave this shelter, which is known as the safest on earth and can withstand any weapon attacks.
"Let's talk about it! What are we going to do now?" A gray-haired old man was the first to break the silence.
Another person knocked on the table angrily and roared, "What else can be done? Of course, allocate troops to suppress the rebellion! We must not let those Rednecks succeed in independence. Otherwise, with the current situation of Atlantic Federation, it is very likely that it will disintegrate on the spot. I believe you all should be very clear, if Atlantic Federation disintegrates, how miserable our end will be, right?"
"The current world situation is overwhelmingly unfavorable to us. Whether it is P. L. A. N. T, which is eroding Eurasian Federation, or Orb, which has annexed South America and Central America, they have taken no action on capital. Ruthless uprooting policy. I believe you have already lost a lot in the process of confiscating assets, so at this time, we must unite, otherwise Atlantic Federation will definitely not be disintegrated at this time!"
Another person stood up and expressed his views and attitudes.
"In that case, let's send troops to suppress it. How many troops do we have on hand? What's the situation with weapons and equipment?"
"Including the newly recruited soldiers, we still have about 300,000 troops that can be mobilized. However, since communication systems and electronic systems are easily hijacked by Orb's artificial intelligence, if we do not get their permission for large-scale troop deployments, there is no way to transport them by air and can only be carried out by land. It will take several days just to transport the people, and it will take at least half a month to prepare the weapons and equipment."
"Faq! Then hurry up and speed up the negotiation process! We can't wait any longer!"
"There is no way to speed up. Orb requires us to recognize the legal sovereignty of all the lands they currently occupy and hand over the military base on the moon. Especially the latter one will make us completely lose control of energy."
"Idiot! Are you still in the mood to consider the control of energy? If the rebellion on the southern earth succeeds, all of us will die without a burial place."
"Hmph! You are not in the energy business, so naturally you are indifferent to energy. But my family and I have to live on energy, and we will never give in on this aspect."
"That's right! Moon base must not be handed over! This is our final bottom line!"
"If that doesn't work, just cede the southern states to Orb in the name of defeat! Let's see how those Rednecks will react then! It's best to let them fight Orb and both sides will suffer!"
"No! The southern states are all important food producing areas! Once lost, it will cause a food and food crisis!"
Because each of the people here represents a different capital interest group, we have been arguing for a long time and have not been able to come up with an effective solution.
After all, for those energy giants, giving up lunar helium 3 is basically equivalent to suicide.
For food processing and retail industry interest groups, losing several southern states means losing the source of raw materials.
Under the pressing strategy of Allen, the interests of their parties are conflicting and contradictory.
No matter which path is chosen, it will inevitably damage the interests of the other party and trigger a violent rebound from the latter.
After arguing for an hour, the guys finally broke up.
The old man who spoke for Energy Capital returned to the room and immediately opened communication with the negotiator far away at Panama City.
After the two parties briefly talked for a few minutes with the information encrypted, the latter immediately went directly to Allen's temporary residence behind the others' backs and made a request to meet in private.
After a while, the two met in the room where they had previously dealt with Murtagh Azrael and other family members.
The representative did not realize at all that more than a hundred capitalists like him had died here. He took two steps forward, put one hand on his chest and bowed deeply. "Thank you very much for giving me such an opportunity. Please rest assured that the chips I offer will never disappoint you."
"Oh? Tell me, what kind of conditions do you and the master behind you plan to offer?" Allen looked at each other up and down with a slightly playful look.
"First of all, we will fully accept the conditions you have proposed before, and we will also cede the independence state to Orb in the form of compensation for defeat. But the premise is that you must guarantee our ownership and mining rights in Lunar Mining Company, and at the same time, you cannot prohibit us from carrying out normal commercial trading activities."
The middle-aged man calmly offered a good selling price.
In his view, selling off the red-necked states in the South in exchange for not harming his own interests was simply a good thing with huge profits.
As for what Atlantic Federation will become if we lose these states, he and the capital behind him don't care.
Anyway, even if Atlantic Federation disintegrates and perishes, energy capital can take this opportunity to enter Orb, use the same method to bribe and corrupt the upper management, and repeat what it did in North America.
"Haha! It sounds very tempting. But I need some time to think about it." Allen did not immediately give a positive or negative answer.
Because he knew that in the coming time, representatives of other capital interest groups would come to his door one after another.
What he has to do is to take pictures of these scenes and then broadcast them to the people of Atlantic Federation.
The scene will be very, very spectacular and interesting...
