Let me write an ideological fable:

The industrial revolution drove farmers out of the land;

Traveling all the way, you can choose the factory to be raised, the capitalist gives carrots, lifeless, and there are traps outside the factory;

Finally found the promised land in the legend (luckily there are no natives in this land);

Then found out that there were no human and reproductive resources;

Attempt to liberate resources from a certain farm, but the place has plenty of military virtues and failed to succeed;

It was found that the military government on another piece of land (totalism/feudalism/incivilization) had manpower and resources;

And these resources have opinions on the original system;

Successfully abducted resources;

With the help of sufficient methods to reduce dimensionality and combat (dogs and white birds: guns, germs and steel), the resources and territories are protected.

problem:

1 The winner is justice, or the right to speak is justice? For example, did Yang Guo and Xiaolongnv's use of the sword in Unfeeling Valley infringe on property rights?

2 If there are oppressed or dissidents in a government, can it be inferred that the government is injustice?

In my opinion, it is difficult to say justice to systematic oppression: for example, the serf system in Tibetan areas before liberation is an abomination; under a very small number of political and religious systems, serfs and women have no basic human rights or right to choose.

Watership Down quotes

  • Campion: The new officer, sir! He's gone!

    General Woundwort: Bigwig?

    Campion: He's wounded Chervil, taken a crowd of the mark with him.

    General Woundwort: Embleer Frith! I'll blind him. *I'LL BLIND HIM!*

  • Bigwig: Aren't you going to silflay?

    Blackavar: I don't silflay at this time, sir.

    Sherbil: Tell him why you're here, Blackavar.

    Blackavar: [Mumbles] I've come here for the mark...

    [Chervil swipes at him to make him speak up, and he does]

    Blackavar: I... I... I've come here for the mark to see me. I... I've been punished for trying to leave the warren.

    [Chervil glares]

    Blackavar: The council were merciful...

    [Chervil threatens him again, and Blackavar cowers]

    Blackavar: The council were merciful.

    Sherbil: He keeps trying to run away. Captain Campion caught him this time. The council ripped his ears and says he has to show himself every morning early silflay as an example to the others. If you ask me, he won't last much longer. He'll meet a blacker rabbit than himself one of these nights.
