Chapter 36 Proposal to discuss an autocratic regime (about the second half of 1902)

get up!My fellow lords!get up!I am the youth of New China! We really can't live under an autocratic regime, we really can't bear to live under an autocratic regime.The autocratic government is the public enemy of our generation, the great enemy!If there is autocracy, there will be no my generation, and if there is my generation, there will be no autocracy.I don't want to stand with it, I'd rather die with it! Who is it that fills my thousands of years of history with pus and blood?Autocracy too.Who would make my tens of thousands of miles of land a den for tigers and wolves?Autocracy too.Who is it that makes our hundreds of trillions of people live in hell?Autocracy too.The ancestors of my generation thousands of years ago were just out of the grass and ignorant, the group was not formed, the intelligence was not full, or they had to borrow a little from autocracy.Today, we are no longer children, and we have no one to care for; we are not disabled, and we have no one to support us; we are not crazy, and we have no one to guard us; we are not criminals, so we have no locks to use arrest.The autocratic regime today does a lot of harm to me and no benefit!If my generation is still respectful and respectful, and stand side by side with it in heaven and earth, there is nothing above to treat my ancestors, nothing to treat myself in the middle, and nothing to treat my descendants from below.We have organized a large army, sacrificed our lives, and vowed to destroy this and then eat the king.Zhuang Xing He Wei, the teacher came from a famous name, and he announced his crime, and announced it to the world, so that he could hear it.

Man born in heaven has equal rights.If it has eyes, it can see with it; if it has ears, it can hear with it; if it has a mouth, it can taste with it; if it has limbs, it can move with it; if it has a brain, it can think with it.Now the tyrant must say: so-and-so is expensive, so-and-so is cheap, so-and-so should command others, and so-and-so should be ordered by others.It is said that it is against the law of heaven.Its crime is one. Everyone has freedom of will.A father cannot be stronger than a son, and a brother cannot be stronger than a younger brother.That is to say, in terms of one body, yesterday cannot be stronger than today, and today cannot be stronger than tomorrow.And the tyrant must say: what I want, you must not want it; what I hate, you must hate it.There is a saying to brush human nature.The second crime is also.

There are those who govern others, and there are those who govern others. This is the law of the country.However, our generation wishes everyone to be the one who governs others, and at the same time wishes everyone to be the one who governs others.Now the autocrat must say: "Only I rule you, and you alone rule me."It's called despising the law of the country.There are three crimes. The land of a country is shared by the people of the country.No matter who you are, you should not take it privately.And the tyrant must say: "Under the whole world, is there any land other than my land?"You trample on my land, and you eat my hair.It is called stealing public property.There are four crimes.

Taking private property as one's own property is a serious crime.However, let it be rectified and improved, so that what I gain can make up for what I lose, it is still worth talking about.But the autocrat said: "I only want to take profit, and he doesn't ask anything."It is also the beginning of chaos and the end of abandonment.The five crimes are also. If it is not rectified and improved for me, it is still possible to make other people greedy for the truth; but the tyrant will increase a tax today and withdraw a cent tomorrow. The desire for ravines is endless.It's like tigers and wolves devouring people.The six crimes are also.

If one person and one surname can live in this tyranny, even if we are not free, we can still give our lives as slaves. If the other tyrant is established, the other tyrants will be motivated to compete with each other and drive our generation to anoint them. dysprosium.It is not just to regard our generation as dogs and horses, but also to regard them as soil mustard.The seven crimes are also. If there is only one person who acts dictatorship at the same time, fortunately, he will be beyond his reach, and our generation will still be able to rest.But the tyrants are all over the minions, from the central government to local officials, and there are no less than a million or hundreds of thousands of them.The upper level controls the lower level, and the lower level copies the lower level. The number of layers is incredible.And my generation is the lowest among the lower classes, heavily depressed, and have no hope of seeing the sun again!He is also the so-called Demon King of Avici Hell.The eight crimes are also.

Even though he suppresses me inside, if there are invaders from outside, he can drive them away for me.It is not only impossible, but also help others to abuse me, and suppress me on behalf of others.The nine crimes are also. It is enough to make him be a real villain willingly because he has no way.Everyone still knows its evil, and there will be a day to hoe it.But the tyrant reverses right and wrong, confuses black and white, presumes the ancient scriptures to be his crime, and does not create a strange morality and strange law, so he teaches people: "If you obey me, you will be a sage, help me Whoever is the one is a hero; otherwise, he is a rebel and a bandit." Go against the heavens and fool the people, this is not the case.It is not to bind me in vain, it is to make my children and grandchildren sink into the sea of ​​suffering and cannot be saved.Its crime is ten.

All of these are just a few generalities.If we talk about it in detail, the so-called bamboos in the southern mountains are too many to write, and the waves of the East China Sea are too evil to flow! I also heard it: Only the innocent in the world can punish others for their crimes.Since the crime of that autocratic regime is the same as that of the other, is it true that our generation is innocent?Said: Nothing.The sins of our generation are all those who have been burdened by that autocratic regime.Try to dissect it.Or say: I have no patriotism in my generation, and it is a crime.However, it is not my generation's crime, but the authoritarian regime.Mencius said: "My younger brother loves him, but the younger brother of the Qin people does not love him." Therefore, my country loves him, but other people's countries do not love him.Since the tyrant seized our country for his own selfishness, our generation can't own it and love it instead of others, why should we do it?The restlessness is that although I want to love him, he will not allow me to do so.For example, if there is a beautiful woman here, if she is my wife, I will get and love her.Now I am someone else's wife, and I secretly use her love, if he doesn't try me with a sharp edge, he will use my old fist.You try to look at the patriots of today, how can they not be looked at by the tyrants with swords.However, autocracy and patriotism are incompatible, and our generation is innocent.

Or say: Our generation does not have the spirit of martial arts, and it is a crime.However, it is not my generation's crime, but the authoritarian regime.Ordinary people who fight for themselves must be brave, but those who fight on behalf of others are the opposite.Those who fight their enemies must be brave, but those who fight their loved ones are not.The autocrat raises soldiers, so he guards against family thieves. He drives my father to fight his son and my brother to fight his brother every day for his own private schemes. But go!My ancestors for thousands of years, so the army is the first to complain about suffering, and it is also the reason why all of them are employed.However, an autocratic regime and a martial spirit are incompatible, and our generation is innocent of both.

Or say: I am not humiliated, it is a sin.However, it is not my generation's crime, but the authoritarian regime.The nature of mortals is ten to seven or eight due to heredity, and ten to two or three due to education.The ancestors of our generation were not subservient since time immemorial, but lived under dictatorship for a long time, and sometimes thought of self-reliance, and they were wiped out without hesitation.So all the strong seeds were hoeed, and only the humble ones remained, which were suitable for the survival of the species, and only passed on their descendants. ...
