In the office of Arkham Sanitarium, Schiller smiled and said: "There must be many mysterious organizations that will reveal information about this plan to him and give him some trivial suggestions."
"What makes me a little strange is, what good will this do to you? Don't tell me that you are kind and just want to help mutants?" Strange took a sip of water and said, "I have nothing special about mutants.
Although I don’t feel hatred, I don’t have a good impression either, because when I was in middle school, I once missed an exam because of a mutant classmate’s ability that suddenly exploded. They were quite troublesome.”
"I feel that whether it is using Asgard to clear out the Red Gate Orchid equipment, or using molten steel production to support Wakanda, or using Nick's equipment to support it, it is just a temporary measure." Stark sighed and said: "
The confrontation between ordinary people and mutants will never end. Even if ordinary people want it to end, if some people don't want it to end, it will never end."
"Human beings are like this. They must pick the weakest one among their own kind to bully. The rich will bully the poorest one among their own kind, and the poor will bully the poorer one. Even beggars will bully the poorer ones.
Being thin and weak is the bad nature of human beings." Stark shook his head and said.
"Indeed, without the Red Manlan Plan, they will still have Plan B and Plan C. As long as the mutants are not extinct, the confrontation between the two parties will not stop..."
Schiller leaned on his chair, looked at Stark and said, "Why do you think ordinary people are so repulsive to mutants?"
"Of course it's because of their uncontrollability."
"On the surface it does appear to be true, but it's much more than that."
Schiller nodded and said, "Yes, a sudden burst of mutant abilities will cause harm, but if you think about it carefully, who is harmed?"
"Who is it?" Strange looked at Schiller with some curiosity. He felt that Schiller must have some "high opinions" and he was very interested in this.
Schiller showed a sarcastic smile and said: "If one day, a mutant's power explodes on the subway, who do you think he is more likely to hurt? A politician who drives in and out of luxury cars every day with a row of bodyguards, or a politician with a row of bodyguards who drives in and out every day?
Office workers who rush to catch the subway every day to get to work?"
"Of course it's the latter." Strange replied without thinking. He paused and then said, "Those rich guys don't know how to crowd the subway."
After speaking, he kept looking at Stark. Stark pursed his lips unnaturally and said, "I'm not used to having physical contact with others, and the signal in the subway is not good, which will delay my work."
..."
"For another example, a mutant suddenly broke out and injured two people at the same time. One of them was Peter, who had not yet mutated into a spider when he was a teenager, and Tony, who was also young but had inherited a large inheritance. Both of them were equally seriously injured.
, Who has the greatest impact?”
"It must be Peter." Tony crossed his arms and said, "His family's financial situation is a bit difficult for ordinary families. They are basically still hovering on the line of food and clothing. If Peter is injured, his uncle and aunt will definitely be very worried. At least
Leave one person to accompany him in the hospital."
"One of the two workers stopped working, and the family income was immediately cut in half, but the expenses were several times higher because Peter had to treat his injuries. As for me, ordinary injuries are nothing to me.
The problem is, even if I am disabled, I can still make prosthetic limbs."
"So, it can be concluded that the poor are much more likely to be harmed by mutants, and the severity of the harm they suffer is much greater than the rich."
"Because there are many more poor people than rich people." Strange knocked on the armrest and said, "How many people like him are there in the world? Most people have the same family situation as mine.
The result is not bad, but there is basically no balance..."
"Yes, the current situation is that in this country, a very small number of elites determine the fate of the vast majority of people, right?"
Stark and Strange looked at each other and nodded. Schiller continued: "This group of elites actually know that mutants are not actually that harmful to them. The probability of them encountering an outbreak of mutants is
than those
Ordinary people are much smaller and can afford the losses even if they are hurt."
"But have you noticed that the sentiment against mutants among this group of people is much stronger than that of the general public?"
Strange touched his chin and said, "According to my experience working in a hospital, it seems to be true. Hospitals often treat mutants who have suffered deformation injuries. Ordinary nurses or trainee nurses can at most complain that the wounds are a bit scary, or
It’s because the situation is complicated and difficult to handle, which only increases their workload.”
"But our vice president often curses and says these mutants should die and never show up in their hospital."
"Why do you think that is?" Schiller asked.
Strange frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "Actually, the wounds of mutants are difficult to treat, but in fact, ordinary people's wounds are similar. If you have seen people who have been in serious car accidents, you will know the extent of human damage.
It's not the weirdest, just weirder. Nurses are used to this kind of thing."
"However, the hospital I worked at before was a private hospital. The director owned shares, and his income was linked to the hospital's income. Once there was an outbreak of mutant abilities that caused large-scale injuries, the hospital would all be affected by those injured people.
It was packed with visitors, and with it came reporters, who loved reporting on it."
"Because of the media and reporters, it is impossible for the dean to kick them out, but many of these people cannot afford the sky-high medical bills in private hospitals. What's more important is that when there are more people, they will occupy the nursing ward, resulting in previously scheduled appointments.
Patients admitted to high-end wards cannot be admitted. The people who make reservations for such wards are all really wealthy people. With one thing going the other way, the financial statements for this quarter will definitely be ugly..."
"In other words, most of the public's anger and hatred towards mutants comes from existential threats, such as being delayed by mutants from going to work or school, being increased workload by mutants, or even losing their lives in accidents. But
Most of the elites’ hatred towards mutants comes from the fact that mutants cause them to lose benefits other than survival.”
"Most of them are like this." Stark said: "I have heard some shareholders complain, but many of them have never seen mutants at all. Just to prevent some vicious events where mutants get out of control, they have to do more
They pay for security, so they hate mutants."
"That's true." Schiller put his hands on the armrests and said, "But not everyone deserves to lose profits. They have to work hard to run the industry, and it's normal to have emotions if they can't accept losses."
"But there is a more typical type of people who talk about doctrine, but at heart they still have business. They can gain more benefits from anti-mutant behavior."
"Some politicians will use this idea to win votes for themselves, and some companies will choose to take sides to please the majority of users. However, these people have more say than ordinary people and can determine the future direction of this country."
"In other words, many people actually oppose mutants not because they sympathize with the general public, but because it is profitable. The same is true for those who formulated this plan."
"They don't stop them from joining the solar system development project because they hate mutants, but they hate mutants because they want to stop them from joining the solar system development project so that they can get more cake."
Schiller glanced at Stark and Strange, and they both nodded. They felt that what Schiller said made sense.
In fact, many of the people who are anti-mutant and anti-mutant have never even seen a mutant.
After looking through the media that reported on anti-mutants, I found that the language and writing of many media even contained errors in common sense. One newspaper even wrote that the X gene of mutants was replaced by the Y gene, and a group of people echoed it, saying that the Y gene is
should be eliminated.
"To sum up, since this group of people can oppose mutants for profit, then as long as the profit is enough, they can also worship mutants as gods. They are black and they are white. The speed of changing their tune only depends on money.
How many."
Stark narrowed his eyes and looked at Schiller and said, "You want to induce them? But now, the biggest benefit they can get from the anti-mutant thing is to divert domestic conflicts. If you want to induce them to change their tune,
Then we must come up with greater benefits.”
Schiller shook his head and said: "This is indeed a method, but it is too laborious, and it's not like I haven't tried it before. I said I could help them solve their domestic conflicts once and for all, but they said I was an ultra-left lunatic."
"
"I don't plan to do such a thankless job anymore. Let's find another way." Schiller smiled and then said:
"We can't increase the benefits they gain by touting mutants, but we can increase the losses they suffer by rejecting mutants."
