Three years passed again...

In the past three years, the whole world has undergone great changes. Fueled by the anti-cherry blossom alliance, the contradictions in public opinion have become more and more intense, and "whether cherry blossoms should be banned" has gradually become an important topic on the Internet.

As the public gradually learned about the existence of such things as "cherry blossoms", all kinds of messy debates became particularly sharp.

But the debate is a debate. Most people still think that since this thing will not affect their own lives, and the robot system has not deemed it illegal, there is no need to interfere with other people's choices.

If you want to use it, you can use it, if you don't want to use it, you can pull it down. Why should it be prohibited by law? !

This is the mainstream perception of society, a frustrating fact.

However, the migration of Donghai City's population is more frequent, and some people never return after traveling abroad. Because Donghai City does not allow the use of "cherry blossoms", they simply relocated to other places. Anyway, they only need to make a report to relocate the city.

There are also some professors from Qingbei University who migrated from Jinghua City. Jinghua City, with a population of more than 10 million, did not pass the vote at the beginning, and it is even more impossible now.

Including some insightful people who oppose the cherry blossoms, they often come to this city to investigate how the vote was passed in the first place.

In fact, the whole process is also very difficult to replicate, it just occupies a time window, before the opposition force grows, it is forcibly passed.

Donghai City, which banned "cherry blossoms" from the very beginning, has become the base camp of the opposition.

In three years, the surrounding cities set off 16 referendums, 14 failed and 2 succeeded. But this result was far worse than Zhang Yuan expected.

With the gradual spread of "Sakura" and the increasing number of people using it, the "Anti-Sakura Alliance" couldn't even set off the 17th vote. That is to say, these three cities have become the only remaining cities in the world, and they may be counterattacked at any time.

In the past three years, Zhang Yuan plagiarized a large number of real-world online novels, and released many games, winning a lot of fans. Under the "coercion and temptation" of various games, these fans helped Zhang Yuan when they voted, but that's all, it's really hard to really change anything.

Seeing that the sky is collapsing bit by bit, personal strength can only be regarded as a flat boat in front of the tide of the times. Even self-protection is a bit difficult, and there is a possibility of subversion at any time. This feeling of powerlessness reminded Zhang Yuan of the previous Gliese civilization, which was really a lonely and helpless civilization, watching himself fall into the abyss step by step.

"A political party needs a strong political party to change everything!"

However, there were very few people who responded, and even those from the "Anti-Sakura Alliance" were unwilling to participate in the so-called power struggle. Many people are willing to oppose "Sakura", but they are unwilling to give their all for it.

...

In the fourth year, the inventor of "Sakura" and the chemist "Barry Pandora" committed suicide by cutting his wrists at home.

The death of the chemist did not cause any splashes in this colorful world. He just wrote a letter and sent it to the "Anti-Sakura League".

"...Sorry, I created this devil, but I don't have the power to seal it back. Everything is my responsibility."

"...I visited our campus yesterday. I do this kind of thing almost every year. I like to recall the good times of my childhood. There is always a kind of motherly warmth in the campus."

"Five years ago, our students were still full of ideals and morality. When they stepped out of society, they would choose to climb a mountain, travel around the world, or find something for themselves...the so-called small personal dreams."

"But now, most people just think about how to get rid of the restraint of the robot teacher, how to enter the society, and get greater happiness at the physical level..."

"During social practice, the ideology of the students has been polluted. Our world is no longer pure, and some demons have stretched their claws on these students who have just walked out of the campus. They lure girls to use the 'sakura ', in order to satisfy my desire to conquer..."

"What we built was nothing like what we fought for...

"I've been thinking, what's the difference between climbing a mountain, participating in a marathon, and getting spiritual enjoyment directly from physical enjoyment...or there is no difference in itself. Maybe there is another kind of The essential difference, the difference between soul and body, I cannot describe."

"Humanity will not perish. With robots, human beings will not perish..."

"What a coward I am. Farewell, the world."

Barry Pandora wrote a lot of incoherent, he can not tell what is the so-called "good", also do not know what is the so-called "bad". He just felt that the current society was becoming more and more "bad", and all the badness was caused by himself, and then he died at home so irresponsibly...

...

In the fifth year, the number of cities that banned the use of "Sakura" changed from three to two. One of the cities, through a referendum, revised the law back again.

This is not the first major setback for the Anti-Sakura League.

The votes raised by the "Anti-Cherry Blossom Alliance" in the past two years have almost been an overwhelming failure. In a city flooded with cherry blossoms, the opposition votes are almost overwhelming. At this time, relying on verbal appeals is completely meaningless.

Even the position of the members of the alliance began to gradually loosen.

Some people think that there is no need to work so hard. Indeed, as the chemist Barry Pandora said, what is the essential difference between a child determined to climb a peak after graduation, or indulged in various material comforts?

This world has long ceased to progress. Most of the productivity and services are provided by robots. It is impossible for human beings to perish. No matter whether the spiritual level is better or worse, human beings can still live on this planet. live a comfortable life.

And because of their opposition to "Sakura", these originally very influential people also fell into verbal criticism. There is still Internet violence in this world, especially when the supporters of "Sakura" occupy the vast majority... They think that the "Anti-Sakura Alliance" wants to hold more power and limit the freedom of human beings themselves.

In this way, after a fierce internal meeting ended, a large number of members of the "Anti-Sakura Alliance" chose to leave. They had already admitted the fact that they had failed, and they were no longer willing to resist too much.
