American Comics: Opening Guidance Batman

Left or right, that is the question.

Before discussing this issue, it is necessary to clarify what is left and what is right. Some people may think that communism is left and capitalism is right, which is not entirely correct.

When the concept was first developed, the left represented the radical and the right represented the conservative. Later, Marx believed that the left represented the advanced system and the lower classes, while the right represented the conservative system and the elite.

In Western socioeconomics, the left represents democracy and the right represents freedom. Yes, democracy and freedom are actually opposite concepts at the beginning.

There is no need to go into the specifics, but one thing must be mentioned, that is, the extreme left and the extreme right.

The so-called ultra-left can be summed up in an inaccurate but relatively simple and easy-to-understand concept, which means that there is no bottom line to sacrifice personal freedom to serve public safety. Everything should be under the control of an absolutely powerful state apparatus, and individuals do not retain any freedom. .

The extreme right, on the other hand, loosens all restrictions, cancels the welfare of the weak, the strong eat the weak, the state should not exert any control, implements an oligarchy, and pursues all freedoms.

I believe that many people have seen this and can already see that, in fact, the superhero registration law is actually a left-leaning law.

As mentioned before, only the leftists care about the safety of the people at the bottom, which is the so-called public safety, and advocates sacrificing some personal freedoms, supporting the weak, and achieving equality.

If it is a right-leaning, then simply don't get this law. Superheroes are stronger when they are strong and weak when they are weak. It is their own problem.

But the problem is, this is the United States, the United States is a capitalist country, and the right wing is rampant, and why this happens is also related to the concept mentioned before. The capitalists definitely hope that the government will not interfere in the economy. The less the better, the most It's good to not give benefits to the bottom people at all, so that they don't have to pay taxes.

So, in such a country, why would there be a superhero law? There are two reasons for this.

First, in essence, politicians and capitalists are different. Politicians are not on the gold standard, but on the power standard. Everything depends on the size of their powers. The priority of anything is no better than the power in their own hands.

Therefore, ideological struggle is like a gun. It fires when it needs to be fired, and it is better to fire when it is not needed. As long as power can be maximized, it does not matter whether it is left or right.

So, as long as you can control these superheroes and serve their mandate, ideology is not the most important thing.

Second, the law of the weak that the right-wing pursues is inappropriate in this matter, because, for superheroes, all ordinary people are the weak side, and the strong prey on the weak. Isn’t that just giving themselves to superheroes to eat?

When they are strong, they naturally advocate the law of the weak, but when they are weak, they must propose laws to restrict and supervise the strong. That is why left and right are an eternal proposition, always in swing.

Some people may say that since the left leans more towards communism and considers the people at the bottom, then in this case, the Congress has played the role of a liberator and is a good person.

But it’s not that simple. Left and right not only depend on behavior and results, but also on motives.

The fact that Congress proposed this bill is not essentially for the consideration of the people at the bottom. The previous congressman who presided over the meeting said that "public safety is the top priority of our mission", which can be completely reversed.

In fact, public safety is the last thing they think about, the first thing they think about is the size of the authority, the second thing is the separation of powers, the third thing is personal interest, and maybe at the end The safety of ordinary people.

Or, in fact, they have not considered the safety of ordinary people at all, because they are very clear that once the contradiction between superheroes is provoked, the resulting war may even threaten public safety, but they don't care at all. .

Therefore, if we want to characterize the superhero registration law, it can be said that the content logic of this law is left-leaning, but the motive and final result must be right-leaning.

After analyzing this, let's look at the choices of everyone in the original comic.

Iron Man chose to agree to the law, while Captain America chose not to. This is not essentially because Iron Man protects ordinary people and Captain America protects superheroes, but because the congressman used this law to create a trap.

That is, they showed Iron Man the left-leaning part of the law. With Iron Man's wisdom, of course he could understand that this law was actually left-leaning, and if it was implemented effectively, it could protect ordinary people.

But what they showed Captain America was the far-left part of this law, that is, the excessive sacrifice of personal freedom to achieve power, and the result of losing both sides if it could not be effectively implemented.

In essence, the two of them saw different parts of the plan, and they couldn't say who was at fault. If they had to find a culprit in the civil war, it would be to come up with this law and use word games and information differentiation. the person of the person.

From this logic, there are many ways to crack the superhero law that led to civil war.

For example, acting as a bridge in the middle, so that the information gap between the two no longer exists, that is, so that the two of them can understand each other what the other is pursuing and worrying about.

There is a high probability that this method can ease the conflict and let them sit down and talk, but the final result is very likely that the registration law will still be implemented, but it will become softer, from a left-leaning to a left-leaning center line, Then the ultimate purpose of the law will change from expanding its powers to stabilizing it.

On the surface, this is a win-win situation for several parties, but in fact, it is still the superhero who takes a step back, and if there is a first step, there will be a second and third steps.

But in fact, there is a more labor-saving way.

Left and right, just like the direction in reality, are contrasted.

Compared with the far right, who demand that the government does not interfere at all to implement oligarchy, the right wing that only demands that the government not pay too much attention to the economy is very left.

Likewise, compared to the radical far-left Schiller, who demanded that superheroes completely give up their freedom of personal information and hand them over to the state, the entire law appears very conservative and right-leaning.

The so-called solution to this problem is actually that when the left side of the law is compared with the extreme left, it appears very right, then the information seen by Iron Man and Captain America is actually the same, and there is no so-called one. Look at the content, one looks at the motivation for poor information.

At the same time, due to the contrast, Iron Man, who was originally slightly left-leaning, and Captain America, who was more conservative and right-leaning, were kicked into the right-wing elements by the far-left Schiller, and naturally stood in the same camp.

As long as you are not my left, you are all right.

The question is, how could Iron Man and Captain America possibly be more left than Schiller?

Schiller is no longer left, he is planning to carry America on the car, turn the steering wheel to the left, and then kick the accelerator...

Ask, speed up.

Hearing Schiller's outrageous plan, Captain America definitely couldn't agree. He patted the table and stood up and said:

"I disagree! Schiller, you're crazy!"

"Captain America..." Schiller sighed, his tone returned to calm, no longer as frenetic, but more dangerous, he walked out of his table, came to the center of the venue, and looked into Steve's eyes Say:

"You've been in so many wars, do you feel sad when you see your comrades wounded, bleeding, and dying on the front lines?"

Steve also came out, saying, "Of course I will, and because I don't want my current comrades to repeat this tragedy, I don't want them to be a tool of government manipulation."

"Then ask yourself, will they regret it?"

Steve pursed his lips and said, "No, of course they won't regret it, they are all real steel warriors, shedding blood and not tears, how can they regret it?"

"Then why don't they regret it?"

Steve looked at Schiller silently, and Schiller also stared at him. Steve saw a kind of light that he was somewhat familiar with in Schiller's eyes.

"They don't regret it because they know that they worked hard and bleed on the front line to protect the ordinary people behind them, and they sacrificed themselves for the hundreds of millions of souls behind them."

"Then, why did you, who fought side by side with them, not want to sacrifice yourself for the ordinary people behind you?"

"Registration law doesn't even make you bleed and die, he just asks you to give your information and be supervised, as it should be."

"Your comrades have sacrificed so much, including their most precious lives, just to make ordinary people no longer fall into war..."

"And now, by rejecting this law, you let ordinary people fall into the danger of the sudden outbreak of superheroes all the time. You didn't make the times go backwards, but you made the spirit go backwards."

"Captain America, you miss that era, but that era doesn't necessarily miss you because you don't deserve it."

Stark, who was sitting on the other side, saw a pained expression on Steve's face.

It's hard to argue with a psychiatrist who has treated you before, because he will always use your weakness as a sword, and at this moment, words are more powerful than fists.

"Stop it, Schiller!" Stark said, coming out from behind the desk, "I don't mean to question your beliefs, but the way you're talking is so absurd that no one will accept it. "

Schiller also looked into his eyes and said, "This is like a scale, one side is your personal information, and the other is public safety. Do you think your personal information is more important than the lives of ordinary people?"

"I didn't think so." Stark denied, but he still couldn't say the words "can be considered" that had already come to his lips before.

Schiller had set it too high, and if he followed Schiller's words now, the next step would be to liberate Washington.

What's more, if others don't know, he doesn't know? Schiller is crazy enough to want to revive the Soviet Union. Now, Schiller's foot is on the accelerator. He will do everything possible to find every reason to step on it. Stark must never give Schiller this chance.

Therefore, although Stark agrees with the concept of this law, he cannot express his agreement now. He said that he agrees, which is equivalent to filling the fuel tank with oil. Ghosts have really come back to life in North America.

Thus, Stark and Schiller began to debate.

But as we all know, the more extreme the remarks, the stronger the offensive, and the more favorable position they can occupy in the debate. Only state parts can achieve true equality and democracy.

Then, if Stark still holds that right-leaning theory, it is impossible to beat Schiller. Therefore, he must become more and more right, until he reaches the extreme right, it is possible to play against Schiller.

So the question is, can Congress accept the extreme left? Or the extreme right?

In fact, they can't accept it.

The extreme left means that the red specter is about to revive, and the extreme right means that the power of the government is weakened to a minimum, and the economic oligarchs have the upper hand, which is not what they want at all.

It's like letting them choose **** that smells like **** or **** that smells like shit.

In fact, they just want to make a law to make superheroes and S.H.I.E.L.D. fight each other, so as to enhance their power. Why did it suddenly become a life-and-death ideological struggle?

But now, the ceiling has been lifted by Schiller, and the superheroes present are surrounded by the increasingly heated debate between him and Stark.

Debates between smart people are often very fanciful, and the atmosphere has already been paved. Today, if the future direction of the United States is not decided, it must not end well, at least the superheroes of the bystanders think so.

But the problem is that Congress is not about to engage in ideological struggle at all. Everyone knows that once this kind of struggle begins, everyone here, whether they are left or right, will not be able to escape the horrific purge.

Finally, a member of the congress host couldn't take it anymore, he patted the table vigorously and said, "Both sides return to their positions! Be quiet! Listen to me! Stop!

"

What he will say next is to let both parties think calmly, not to take the situation to an extreme level, and then say some clichés that are usually used to pull the frame, and declare the end of the meeting.

Hold another meeting another day to exclude this extremist Moonlight Knight, and then use other reasons to provoke Iron Man and Captain America~www.NovelMTL.com~ But when he was about to say that, Schiller pointed , a silver light hit the councilor, and he suddenly found that he could no longer make a sound.

Then he heard Schiller say:

"In order to prove that I am not empty talk, I am willing to set an example and take the lead in revealing my true identity and specific abilities, which has shown my determination to maintain public safety."

As he spoke, the silver on his body slowly receded, and even the iron cover on his mouth disappeared. After Schiller showed his face, not many people recognized him because he did not appear in front of the screen very often. Next, he Start introducing yourself.

"I know that not many people know me, but I have to introduce myself. My name is Schiller Rodriguez. I am a psychologist and a psychiatrist. You can read it in major journals. When it comes to my dissertation, I am not humble enough to say that my academic level is still good.”

"At the same time, I'm still working as a psychiatrist at S.H.I.E.L.D. This, Iron Man, received 230 hours of treatment from me, this, Captain America, S.H.I.E.L.D. made 130 appointments for him, but he only came Less than half of..."

"The rest..." Schiller pointed his finger at the superheroes present, and he said, "You should know that being a superhero is also very stressful. They are all regulars in my place."

When it comes to this, the expressions of everyone below have changed. The psychiatrist of S.H.I.E.L.D. is an extreme leftist, and every superhero present has received his treatment...

Healing or missionary? !

But then, Schiller's words made them truly feel terrified.

"And my abilities... maybe you know someone whose special abilities are very similar to him in terms of type and intensity, and that is—"

"Professor X."
