Arcane Lord

What elitism says is - society should be made by the "elites", or in other words, should be ruled by the "elites"!

Let's talk about rationality first, in one sentence - to allow more professional people to obtain higher decision-making power.

There is nothing wrong with this, but elitism blurs the concept of professional field. If a professional in one field changes to another field, is it still professional? Should there be higher decision-making power?

Secondly, with regard to the identification of professions, or the identification of "elite" status, it is obviously not in line with most people's cognition that laymen evaluate experts.

Then there is only affirmation from more professionals, or in other words, the recognition of elite status comes from within the elite group.

So the question is, will such an elite group composed of a few people exclude those with professional standards from joining them because of their own interests?

In other words, will the elite few unconditionally welcome people with professional standards to join them?

The answer is obvious.

But as long as the few elites who have obtained decision-making positions exclude professionals who have not obtained their certification, is it the greatest mockery of elitism?

Those professionals who are unable to obtain decision-making status are not unable to obtain decision-making status not because of their profession, but only because of the obstruction of a small number of vested powers. Can this be called elitism?

When it comes to reality, Netheril does not have too many restrictions on pioneers because there are still a lot of openable land outside.

But because magic is directly related to one's own dominance, from top to bottom, almost all spellcasters choose to set up obstacles for those who are about to enter this field.

In addition to excluding professionals because of interests, wouldn't non-professionals be certified because of interests (loss of decision-making power of oneself or one's own camp)?

Well, this so-called "elite" doesn't even have professional ability, and it's actually close to the essence of "elitism"—

It is not advocating that more professional people make decisions, but to provide theoretical support for a small number of vested power holders to continue to hold power.

But in fact, there are problems everywhere in elitism, and only the guise that it shows may be its only rationality.

Xia Duo never denies the existence of elites, but he firmly opposes elitism. In this world, there should not be minority groups with natural decision-making power, but progressive representatives who can make professional decisions that benefit the interests of the masses in their own professional fields. .

The two seem to have little difference, but in fact there is a fundamental difference.

The power of progressive representatives comes from the masses, relying on their own professional knowledge to make decisions; while the power of elites comes from the power system constructed by elitism, and they do not rely on their own professional knowledge when making decisions (those so-called elites do not necessarily have professional knowledge) .

The purpose of the former decision-making is to serve the people, while the purpose of the latter decision-making is for self-interest or maintaining the rule.

Therefore, one of the most obvious external manifestations of elitism is the self-righteousness of the ruling class.

The previous sacrifice of Master Yerevan (actually not dead, saved by the princess) may be embarrassing, but if the essence is, it is nothing more than a kind of elitist self-righteousness.

But now, Badigal or the Seven Towers are also doing the same thing, thinking that with Mythra technology, they can dominate the Northland. They not only think so, they really do it.

Completely disregarding the rare peaceful situation in the North, insisting on provoking a new round of arms race.

From this moment, Xia Duo can be considered to have completely seen the essence of the Seven Towers. The nature of the positions of the two sides is different, and it is doomed that he and the Seven Towers can only use each other, but they will never become true fellow travelers.

…

After the dinner, Xia Duo did not leave Evereska immediately, but came to a community garden square near the place where the dinner was held. Callishan observer Hudson said that he had the latest intelligence from the south to share with him.

When he arrived, he saw Hudson getting up from the bench on the other side of the square, floating in front of him with a gust of wind, and stopped to salute:

"Lord Xiaduo, I am ordered by Grand Vizier to provide you with some southern intelligence."

"Well, express my thanks to Your Excellency Fahd for me." After Xia Duo returned the gift, he immediately asked about the information, "What does Your Excellency Fahd have to say?"

"First of all, it is about the latest battle between Ketmir and Zamdas. Although the war was initiated by Ketmir, they are not ready for war. They are almost no opponents of Zamdas on the battlefield, and even once Rely on native mystics for defense."

"Then what happened next?"

"Later, King Katemir asked for help from our country, and the great Sir Pasha agreed, but considering the reality of our country, Grand Vizier only sent a team of fighters with experience in front-line combat as advisors to Katemir , not actually participating in the war.”

"Well, what then?" Xia Duo asked again.

Calinthian is trapped internally and externally, and finally escaped from the quagmire of war. Naturally, it is impossible to set foot in it easily. It is estimated that Katemir has offered a high price that is difficult to refuse to send a team of consultants, otherwise it will not risk restarting with Zamdas War-end risk to do such a thing.

"Afterwards, under the guidance of the Kalinshan Advisory Group, Katemir stabilized the battle situation, and now he can gradually launch a counterattack."

Speaking of this, Hudson paused, glanced at Xia Duo, and explained: "A big reason for this is that Zamdas lost a spiritual artifact not long ago, which greatly weakened their offensive. "

"Is there any more?"

"The battle between Ketmir and Zamdas is over for the time being, but it can be expected that this war will continue for a long time, until the king of Ketmir dies or forgets the pain of losing his son."

"Except for these?"

"In addition to these, there is also a piece of information about Zamdas. After the aggressive and evil country signed an armistice agreement with our country, it pointed the spearhead of the war to the south."

"Life is endless, aggression is endless?"

"Lord Xiaduo, your expression is too vivid, the Zamdas can only be calmed down if they are completely dead!"

Even in front of Xia Duo, Hudson unabashedly expressed his distaste for Zam Dass. Of course, Xia Duo actually felt the same on this point.

Regardless of whether there were previous conflicts or not, Xia Duo would not have a good impression of such a country that has aggression and expansion written into its bones.

"Does Your Excellency Fahd have any other explanations?"

"Grand Vizier also said that last time UU Reading www.uukanshu.com disappointed Lord Xiaduo because of Zamdas's plot, this time Karim is fully prepared and welcomes Lord Xiaduo at any time Visit again."

After finishing speaking, Hudson also took out a formal invitation letter and handed it to Xia Duo.

For Fahd's kind invitation, Xia Duo did not refuse, but he did not say the specific time, because he did not intend to go to the south in a short time.

However, after learning that Zamdas was already fighting everywhere, he decided to continue his unfinished travel plan—going to the East.

Of course, there is no need to show it in front of Hudson.
