"I was wrong, I was wrong, don't kill me, don't kill me..."

Dark Forest: Liberating the Three Bodies: Chapter 118 Humanitarian Authority, I for All, All for Me

Mu Yuan stood on the street, the cold wind blew his gaze, passing through the depressed crowd and falling on the magnificent building in the distance. The dome of the palace was shining with golden light in the sun, high up like a cathedral.

He looked to the other side, where thick smoke was coming out of the factory chimneys and a pungent smell filled the air. The faces of the hard-working workers were filled with fatigue and frustration, and they had long lost hope. They had been drained of all their vitality and could only survive in endless oppression and exploitation.

It had been some time since he came to St. Petersburg.

Mu Yuan stood beside him, watching everything quietly. People passing by ignored the two of them, as if they were just ghosts in this city.

"This time, the talent obtained by rolling the dice is [Humanitarian Authority]."

Mu Yuan spoke slowly, "How to use it depends entirely on how we understand this power."

She seemed to see a different future that would result from different decisions.

"If you want power, then you can become the highest emperor on the pyramid of power. If you want money, then you can become the only producer in the world. If you want to enjoy yourself, then the whole world is your inexhaustible resource bank, producing all kinds of people or things for your enjoyment."

"But these are not what I want." Mu Yuan's voice was low and firm. "I once had a regret, that I didn't see the dawn. This regret can be made up in this world."

Mu Yuan nodded slightly.

“I am for everyone, and everyone is for me. If we practice this path in this way, we cannot become a superhuman emperor who rules the world, nor will we become the supreme ruler of a civilization.”

He can rely on his identity as a "superman" to directly assault the entire world with unrivaled violence, and shape the world according to his own wishes. For example... if someone says that he doesn't eat beef, he will shoot all the people he doesn't like.

But... he didn't like it. He had the power to choose and could refuse to do something he didn't like. What's more, he thought it was meaningless.

A regime and a country are all built on an economic foundation. In the capitalist world, private ownership of the means of production, wage slavery, commodity economy, and capitalist legal rights in this economic relationship... these are what determine the appearance of this country and this society.

It is simple to change the regime on the surface, but if you want the proletariat to become the real masters, it is never enough to just establish a country and make a law.

The law is only a part of the superstructure and a tool of class dictatorship. It is the ruling class that decides and maintains the content of the law, rather than the law determining which class is in power.

If we do not change the production relations that have been passed down in the capitalist world, if we do not change the commodity economy and the bourgeois legal rights that are deeply rooted in it, if we do not let the proletariat learn how to manage the country through repeated struggles, if we do not let the proletariat's thoughts continue to eliminate the decadent and backward parts through gradual struggles...

Even if a superhuman power is used to establish a country nominally controlled by the proletariat, this country will only be a strange Leviathan. In name, the proletariat is the master, but in reality they are still slaves in various specific enterprises and factories. Once the power to maintain this castle in the air disappears, the bourgeoisie will immediately come back and counterattack.

The reason why Mu Yuan can be so confident is that this is a fact that has been proven by history, and those capitalist-roaders will even continue to wear their original skins after usurping the country's political power in order to deceive the workers and peasants who have already lost their political power.

Therefore...

“I will change this world, not as a superman, but as a participant, an educator and the educated, a guide and the guided, a helper and the helped, so that this world can welcome the true master that it should have welcomed but has not welcomed.”

He walked into the fields, stepped on the mud, and worked with the peasants. He saw the peasants sweating under the scorching sun, their thin bodies looking like they would collapse at any time. He listened to their sufferings. The vast majority of poor peasants longed for "land" the most. Land was their life, and it was what their ancestors had been working hard for. However, such efforts were always in vain, and the capitalist revolution in Russia did not meet their demands.

He entered the factory and operated the machines with the workers. Amid the roar of the machines, the workers' complaints and anger were intertwined. He cursed the damn factory owners and capitalists together with them, feeling the dissatisfaction in the workers' hearts accumulating like a volcano.

He talked with small vendors and shop owners in the streets and alleys, identified their demands, and thought about how to unite their forces.

He came to the soldiers' garrison and trained with them. Under the oppression of various sergeants, he learned about their views on war and life. The soldiers' faces showed fatigue from battle and fear of the future. They seemed to have no question of their superiors' orders, but deep in their hearts they hid disgust for war and desire for peace.

Only someone with a superhuman physique like him could run around so tirelessly. Otherwise, not only would he not be able to do it, but he would also be exhausted to death.

In these places, he taught knowledge and spread ideas. He used easy-to-understand language to explain to the peasants the importance of land revolution and called on the peasants to unite and resist the exploitation of landlords. He explained to the workers the power of trade unions and vanguards, how to strike and protest, and fight for better working conditions and wages. He analyzed the real reasons and significance of the war to the soldiers, encouraged them to think about their own situation, refuse to work for the oppressors, and not shed blood in vain.

He always uses simple metaphors and vivid examples to make people feel as if they are in the situation themselves, so that they can understand the root cause of their situation and the solution.

Every night, some places are always crowded with people, sitting around Mu Yuan, listening to his passionate speech. The twinkling lights illuminated the faces that were originally numb but now full of hope, and the fire burned in their eyes.

His name began to become widely known among the working class of St. Petersburg, and he became their hope and leader.

Soon, some activists among the workers asked him if he knew the Bolshevik Party.

"I know."

The Bolshevik Party was the vanguard of the working class, but due to the repression of the Tsarist government, their activities remained in the dark and were difficult to expand.

However, this party was well organized and powerful. With less than 50,000 members, it was able to lead the working class to overthrow the bourgeois provisional government after the February Revolution.

"You know Vladimir, he said he wants to meet you if you're willing."

"With great pleasure. I want to see him, too."

Dark Forest: Liberating the Three Body: Chapter 119: Fighting for the Liberation of Mankind!

“…Tsarist Russia was a relatively backward capitalist country with many contradictions.

The contradiction between the proletariat and the bourgeoisie, the contradiction between the feudal landlord class and the bourgeoisie, the contradiction between the peasant petty bourgeoisie and the bourgeoisie, the contradiction between the proletariat and the peasant petty bourgeoisie, the contradiction between the free bourgeoisie and the monopoly bourgeoisie, the contradiction between the democratic forces in the bourgeoisie and the extreme forces in the bourgeoisie...

However, according to the theory of contradiction in dialectical materialism, there are indeed many contradictions in the development process of complex things, but among these contradictions there must be a most important contradiction that determines or influences the development of other contradictions.

In Tsarist Russia, the main contradiction was the contradiction between the bourgeoisie and the proletariat. This was the decisive contradiction that determined the nature of the country and its future direction..."

When he met Vladimir, Mu Yuan saw him sitting on a simple wooden chair, holding a copy of Pravda, and seemed to be reading the article carefully.

Behind him was a dim light, highlighting his thin yet powerful figure.

Seeing Mu Yuan coming, Vladimir raised his head, took his eyes off the newspaper and looked at him.

The mentor's eyes are wise and sharp, as if they can penetrate all illusions and reach the essence of things.

"Comrade Mu Yuan," he smiled, "you are right. The contradictions in this country are complicated, but the most important contradiction is always the contradiction between the bourgeoisie and the proletariat."

Mu Yuan nodded and responded firmly: "We must firmly grasp the development of this main contradiction and grasp the internal factors that promote the development of the Russian Revolution in order to achieve victory in the upcoming revolution."

The worldview of materialist dialectics has always been to study the development of things from the inside of things and from the relationship between one thing and other things, that is, to regard the development of things as the internal, inevitable, and independent movement of things. At the same time, the movement of each thing is influencing other things around it.

In simple terms, the former is the internal factor that makes things develop, and the latter is the external factor that makes things develop.

The internal factors that make things develop - the contradictions within things, are the fundamental reasons that lead to the development of things.

The external factors that make things develop - the mutual connection and mutual influence between this thing and other things, are only the second reason for the development of things.

Social changes are mainly due to the development of internal contradictions in society, namely, the contradiction between productive forces and production relations, the contradiction between classes such as the bourgeoisie and the proletariat, the contradiction between new forces and old forces, new ideas and old ideas, and so on. It is the development of these contradictions that has driven social progress and promoted the metabolism of the old and new societies.

The reason why Mu Yuan published this article about contradictions in the newspaper was to criticize a certain idea.

There are always some people, no matter in the past, present or future, who always like to exaggerate the external influence of things on things.

They said that the Tsar’s state was so powerful, with millions of troops and bureaucrats, countless machine guns and cannons, and it controlled such a powerful state apparatus. So, how could the proletariat, who did not even have a few guns in their hands, possibly defeat them?

This kind of thinking will gradually develop into the "Entering the Pass Theory" in the future, which believes that there must be a strong proletarian country to help the proletariat of this country in order to overthrow the rule of the bourgeoisie.

Even "alien communism" has developed, longing for an alien civilization that has practiced "communism" to liberate all mankind.

Ye Wenjie in the future time and space, and the liberation faction in the Three-Body Organization on Earth are such people.

Mu Yuan's evaluation of them is that their heads are filled with idealism and they don't understand dialectical materialism at all.

Instead of fantasizing about humans being liberated by the Trisolarans, it is better to hope that humans liberate the Trisolarans!

In fact, dialectical materialism never excludes external factors that make things develop. However, external factors are always only conditions for change, and internal factors are the basis for change.

The fundamental reason for the development of things lies not outside of things but inside of things, and lies in the contradictions within things.

If you want to fundamentally change society, external forces alone will not work.

Only by applying this external force to the various contradictions in society and allowing the internal contradictions of society to fundamentally change society can we truly transform an old society into a new one.

Therefore, the proletariat never needs anyone to save them. They are the main aspect of the main contradictions that can fundamentally change society. They possess the great power to subvert the old society and give birth to a new world. All they need to rely on is themselves.

The "mechanical materialists," "opportunists," "utopians," "pessimists," "weapon determinists," etc., do not understand this.

So...how can we understand how to resolve these contradictions with concrete means?

In fact, every real, non-imaginary development process of all forms of movement is of different quality, and contradictions of different quality can only be resolved by methods of different quality.

The contradiction between the proletariat and the bourgeoisie must be resolved by means of socialist revolution; the contradiction between the masses and the feudal system must be resolved by means of national revolution; in socialist society, the contradiction between the working class and the peasant class must be resolved by means of agricultural collectivization and agricultural mechanization.

Mu Yuan understood this truth very clearly. Only socialist revolution could resolve the contradiction between the bourgeoisie and the proletariat in Tsarist Russia!

So what he has to do is to accelerate the development of contradictions, to let the suppressed contradictions develop into confrontation, to let the confrontation develop into fierce confrontation, to let the fierce confrontation develop into revolution, and to let the revolution of one country develop into the revolution of the world! !

...

..

Mu Yuan walked forward with a determined look, shook Vladimir Ilyich's hands, and a sincere smile appeared on his face.

"Comrade Vladimir, welcome back home."

In order to avoid persecution by the Tsar’s gendarmerie, Vladimir had been in exile in various countries. Two years ago, he was arrested and imprisoned by Austria, and then went to the "neutral country" Switzerland.

Not long ago, he keenly sensed that a certain force or process was about to accelerate under Mu Yuan's actions, so he quickly returned to Tsarist Russia.

Before returning to China, he wrote a letter to the party, hoping to meet with "Mu Yuan" under proper arrangements.

Even though he was far away in Switzerland, Vladimir had heard of Mu Yuan's "great name".

This man seemed to have suddenly appeared in this world. No one knew where he came from, but he had an excellent theoretical foundation, extremely ardent revolutionary enthusiasm, and a revolutionary belief that was firm enough to infect anyone.

He seemed to have endless energy. He ran to every factory in St. Petersburg, met with millions of workers day and night, and preached Marxism.

He was even bold enough to run into the military camp, meet with the soldiers and low-ranking officers of Tsarist Russia, and give them lectures.

You have to know that the capitalists who control the factories are not good men and women. Similarly, the military camp is not a place where anyone can enter.

Therefore, there are often rumors that Mu Yuan was caught and secretly executed, but after this rumor spread, his figure immediately appeared in a factory, making the rumor self-defeating.

These various pieces of news, whether true or false, attracted Vladimir's great attention.

Many party comrades had come into contact with Mu Yuan, and all of them had a positive attitude towards him. However, some of the news about him was so bizarre that people had to wonder if this was the Tsarist government's attempt to build momentum.

So he decided to meet this comrade in person.

After seeing Comrade Mu in person, just one glance, and the slight doubts and worries in Vladimir's heart disappeared in an instant.

That face was so pure. When you saw him, it was as if you saw a bright red sun burning endlessly. It was the revolutionary passion and revolutionary belief that anyone could directly feel.

When I see him, these words come to my mind: My entire life and all my energy have been dedicated to the most magnificent cause in the world - fighting for human liberation!

Dark Forest: Liberating the Three Bodies: Chapter 120 is already rotten, I can't stand it anymore

"Thank you, Comrade Mu Yuan," Vladimir's eyes were filled with deep emotion. He also held Mu Yuan's hands tightly, his hands were warm and strong.

He said: "We still have a lot to do. The proletariat has been groping in the dark for hundreds and thousands of years, and now they finally see the light. They cannot hand over their fate to the corrupt bureaucracy and the bourgeoisie. They must firmly grasp the future of this country in their own hands and never give up."

Mu Yuan felt the warmth of Vladimir's palm, which was the mark left by countless battles and hard times.

These hands once wrote countless theories and strategies, and now they will continue to wave, smashing the chains that bind the working class and creating a glorious future for the proletariat!

After the greetings, they sat on two simple wooden chairs, facing each other, and continued to communicate.

There was only a dim light in the room, quietly illuminating their faces as they talked.

"Comrade Mu Yuan, I'm very happy to meet you." Vladimir's voice was low and gentle.

"I have wanted to meet you for a long time. You are well-known among the workers, soldiers, peasants and our party. I can hear your name even from Switzerland. Many party members who have come into contact with you have praised you as a steel warrior who fights tirelessly for the revolutionary cause."

He even smiled and said, "It is said that you made Nicholas II so angry that he turned pale every time he heard your name. He issued a death order to take your head, but got nothing."

"Nicholas II? It's ridiculous that he wants to catch me."

A scornful smile appeared on Mu Yuan's face.

He published a series of articles in famous publications such as Pravda and Iskra, using the pen name Mu Yuan. Of course, this name is written in Russian, but it is transliterated as "Mu Yuan", just like Lenin's surname is not Lenin and Stalin's surname is not Stalin.

At this time, the time for revolution is very close. Tsar Nicholas II...will be arrested, tried, and then shot.

This might be one of his shortcomings. He is not merciful at all. Compared with transformation, he would rather shoot these labor guards directly.

After starting the conversation with the topic of the Tsar, the two quickly turned the discussion to an analysis of the current revolutionary situation in Russia.

Mu Yuan said, "I have traveled to many places and have interacted not only with workers, peasants, soldiers, and small shop owners, but also with nobles, bureaucrats, large landowners, big capitalists, Mensheviks, and many other social democratic organizations."

He considered himself an excellent imitator.

He strictly followed the principles of Marxism and repeated the path that the Bolshevik Party had taken in his memory.

Among them, a very important principle is that we must never ignore the connection with the masses, and we must not use conspiracy to overthrow the bourgeois government and establish a revolutionary regime, and use this method to achieve the dictatorship of the minority. This kind of "Blanquism", the idea of expecting that mankind can get rid of wage slavery not through the class struggle of the proletariat, but through the conspiracy of a few people, is typical opportunism.

In order for an uprising to reach a revolutionary climax, it must rely on a turning point in the development of the revolution. At the same time, even if the people revolt, we must not conclude that we should seize power at this time. We must examine whether the objective conditions for the victory of the uprising are met at this time.

Based on these principles, Mu Yuan promoted Marxism among the millions of workers and soldiers in the two capitals' industrial areas, and at the same time won the support of the workers and soldiers. His goal was to make the class, as the vanguard of the revolution, identify with the vanguard's theory and be willing to follow the vanguard when the revolution came.

At the same time, it is also an active response to the development of history, in order to promote the arrival of the revolutionary climax of the whole nation ahead of time.

After all...what he saw and investigated made him realize that the time for revolution was ripe.
