Before writing this article, I specially read the "Communist Manifesto" to see how this manifesto accurately carved out the social contradictions at the time, and thus spread widely. After re-reading one side, I found Marx’s mistakes. The manifesto pointed out : Since capitalism has developed excessively, the proletariat must take over all enterprises and nationalize them.
This is an obvious mistake. Even in the 20th century, people gradually realized the difference between the invisible hand and the visible hand, but with Marx's foresight, it is impossible to mistake this truth. The reason why such a plan was put forward in the manifesto was simply because the proletarian life at the time was too miserable. When social contradictions intensified, the communists had to seek a compromise and compromise plan for their own survival.
The times are different now. The time when the proletariat must be part of the capital machine has passed.
In the feudal era, the scenes of people's lives were built by religious brainwashing and military conquest. A stable and centralized social scene can describe the basic appearance of the entire feudal era.
When the era of great navigation came, the birth of the bourgeoisie created a scene of plundering and trade. The new class entered the social labor force and political tilt with its powerful power to create the scene, and gradually occupied the position of the social ruling class. This is still possible. Reflect the basic characteristics of capitalist countries.
In the Marx era, there is no such opportunity for change. The social scene is still the early stage of the development of capitalist society. The productive forces are far from complete, and the proletariat has not been able to completely turn over. When can the proletariat completely stand up? When the proletariat welcomes its own scene to build power, it is different from the force of the feudal era, different from the development of capitalism, the proletariat must build its own scene.
If one word is used to summarize the proletarian scene and contrast with the former, then it should be "individualization."
1. Do you know the historical significance and historical evolution of the scene?
Scenes are the basis for human society to be distinguished from animals, or "humans build scenes" are the basis of human society, and "natural scenes" are the basis for everything. why. Natural scenes have created caterpillars and beasts, creating hundreds of millions of biological forms in the blue sky and ocean. Everything is adapting to nature. Only people have learned to use nature and coordinated with tools to build primitive social scenes, gradually forming a unique human society .
So the difference between humans and everything lies in the ability to build scenes collaboratively. When primitive people lit a bonfire for the first time to create a social scene, language was born and tribal relations deepened.
After entering the feudal era, the feudal class who was good at enclosing territories and expanding the country built the national scene, and formed a social power structure with a very small number of landlords as the power center. This narrow power structure enslaved the overall scientific, cultural, and economic development. Gradually rest on its feet. From the electoral system that served the feudal class, the imperial examination system, to the following eight-legged essays, it became more and more critical, and progress was achieved because of external forces. The more you stand still, the more difficult it is to evolve peacefully, and the more you need to pay the lessons of blood and tears.
In contrast, those who seize the power of rule by war will continue to refine the feudal ruling mechanism to serve themselves, complete the mission of their own era without the flexibility to change, and eventually form restrictions on the bourgeois group. Capitalism is the same. The power of science and technology has continuously strengthened the power of capitalism, and has constantly figured out the law of capitalism's efficiency improvement. At the stage of "overproduction" as Marx called, the working class has become the object of their play.
Some people say that there are always people who will be the nails of the capital machine, and there will always be people in this world who will do low-end jobs and consume their youth, but is that true? In feudal society, everyone is comforting themselves, there are always people who want to be slaves and funerals. But when the social structure changed, they were liberated.
From a historical perspective and looking at the problem with a developmental perspective, we know whether it can be changed and how to change it.
If feudal society restricts the development of bourgeois technology, culture, and free thought, then capitalist society restricts the creativity, vision, and power of the proletariat to live freely. The bourgeoisie in a capitalist society are all people who are good at operating capital machines. They are deeply entrenched businessmen. When capitalism develops to its extreme, it will do everything in its power to control the rhythm of production and sales in the entire society, and seek the greatest benefit for its own class. Make more money by yourself.
For everyone, what is the truth in current society? How to plan for career development? You go to the workplace to study diligently in order to do a good job, facing the situation Marx described in the past, and finally living out of yourself is not what you are.
In the workplace during this period, people not only betray their bodies, but also their souls. The following excerpt is from the "Communist Manifesto"
I am not here to intensify social contradictions. I just want to let everyone know from a first-principles perspective what is dictating their plans and what future they will face.
It is not ruled out that many people think that this kind of life is acceptable, but when you are reading the article, do you think the same way?
Or should we use the "Internet", a new age scene building tool, to create tools for the proletariat to co-build their own class scenes?
** 2. Internet technology is a technology that empowers individuals from genes? **
After reading Kevin Kelly's "Out of Control", you will find that there are many group networks in the world. There is no ruling class in this network, but countless small individuals maximize the interests of the group through the form of networking.
The fundamental nature of such a technology as the Internet should be to empower groups.
However, the current Internet is used as a way of improving efficiency since the second industrial revolution. Efficiency improvement refers to vertical production and sales from top to bottom; networking refers to bottom-up user dominance.
The second industrial revolution gave birth to machines for the first time, gave rise to a company system, and produced a series of data science and management methods related to efficiency improvement. Since the emergence of the Internet at the end of the last century, it conforms to the empirical efficiency improvement thinking and continues to empower Existing industries: communications, entertainment, and traditional industries. The specific form of expression is to use information technology to create online communication scenes, such as WeChat; create entertainment scenes, such as Tencent Video; create travel rental scenes, such as Ctrip; but never consider empowering small and medium individuals.
Jack Ma is the first to empower small B and build a B2C e-commerce scene. Ma Yun said that empowering small individuals is the future. So after experiencing Internet technology empowering the industry and small merchants, what is the next step? You don't need to doubt, it is empowering individuals.
**3. Tools that enable individuals to gain backhand control of the scene building ability? **
The foundation of human society lies in the scene. The essence of each class being able to occupy the dominant history is that the new scene absorbs more resources and thus defeats the old scene. In the Communist Manifesto, Marx described in detail how capitalism gradually obtained labor and political rights, thereby establishing a free country.
Therefore, the essence of empowerment is to provide individuals with the ability to collaborate and build scenarios.
In order to consolidate their rule and complete the historical mission of their own era, the ruling class at each historical stage has all exercised hegemony in setting up the scene. In feudal society, everyone must follow the basic norms in their own set of social scenes, and people are no different from slaves. Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce have clearly obeyed the control and lived very closed. In a capitalist society, everyone must bring the greatest benefit within the scenario set by the capitalist, the survival of the fittest, the parts of humans and machines undoubtedly, life in exchange for life materials.
If you can't pay attention to the above macro things, you can at least find out what your situation is.
The scenes of all Internet products are designed for capitalist machines, and they all have a complete mechanism of mopping up wool. For example, when you use Momo and Tantan in social situations, you must display according to the platform's personal display mode setting. In fact, people are very diverse, and such products limit the way you display. It reduces your actual social efficiency and accuracy, blurs your personal image to increase revenue for the platform, and plays with you through rules. This is the truth behind all Internet enterprise product scenarios.
If primitive people are content with natural scenes and will not work hard to create new scenes, human beings are no different from beasts, and sociality will not develop. In the Internet era, if all people obey the efficiency-improving thinking of the second industrial revolution and obey the control and arrangement of the scene, then human society will not be exposed to the Internet, and there will be any qualitative progress.
Most of us are playing with various scenes of capital, but we never reflect on it, because we have become accustomed to it. Do you really think that all Internet scenarios should be handled by large companies? Or did the 20 years of Internet development make you accustomed to this social phenomenon empirically?
Before primitive people lit the flames for the first time, they did not realize that it was this move that gave them the ability to speak language. Similarly, what kind of ecology will be born from a collaborative platform and what will it bring to human society. I can’t see the new things, but I’m sure that such a tool will be born.
4. What is the outlook and design of this tool?
This tool that has mastered the historical mission is a tool for individuals to collaborate to build scenarios. Current workplaces and freelancers will use this tool to build their own life, entertainment, social and value exchange scenarios.
All the vertical product structures you see so far will hang up. Before, people followed the production and delivery (in the Internet industry, from production to information flow advertising, you will find that this is obviously a vertical production plus marketing promotion. Process), followed by production follows the scene.
Money and resources follow the scene. Where there is a scene, there is the value of embedded information. When people gain the power to build collaborative scenes, they will enter the form of a new communist society. The efficiency-enhancing scenes built by capitalism will gradually decline, and personalization and user dominance will rise. The most common proletarian individuals in this society have become the ruling class, and there is no longer the hegemony and constraints of the Internet scene, but the scene of self-organizing collaborative tools dominates, creativity, communication and collaboration capabilities will become the core capabilities of society, rather than operation With the power of the capital machine, everyone will no longer be enslaved by the scenarios set by capitalists.
This change will be the same as the previous changes in history. Even if history keeps repeating itself, there will always be people who cannot understand, see, pretend to be invisible. And we are greeted with enthusiasm. A self-organizing scene co-construction tool will take each unique small scene as the basic form. It has the ability to build everything online, online and offline (IOT) to build scenes, and will form many decentralized small value nodes . People use it to build their own social, transaction, information, and collaboration scenarios. At the same time, the scenarios can realize communication, evolution, innovation, and elimination. This will be the first product design of a self-organizing ecology. And here comes my question, is it possible for a tool logic to expand everything? How should we design a self-organizing product?
** 5. How to do such a tool? **
Have you ever played a sandbox game "mine craft", all players can build everything with the help of blocks. Do we have the ability to borrow the logic of this product? We need to use the rich text input box as the basic input element of the collaborative construction platform. Some people say that if the rich text input box is the basic element, then QQ space and Weibo are not considered collaborative building tools? No, they only have the function of forwarding and liking. The essence is a feedback mechanism for information flow, not a tool for collaboratively building a scene. These are two different orientations. A collaboration tool can allow rich text elements to be nested up and down and a series of link rules that can form an organization.
For the design of this product, I can write another 10w characters, but I need to collect a lot of materials and make rigorous judgments. What I did in this article is to slowly unfold the future to you. When I saw the future picture for the first time, my heart was full of enthusiasm and I was very happy. I don’t know if 100 people read this article. , A few people will feel the same as me, those who understand will naturally feel it, some people will not feel it in their lifetime.
I often make jokes about myself. The strictness I have asked myself once made me insist on a right thing, and constantly figure it out. If I don't have friends, this is not something a normal person can do. Because most people like to take shortcuts, and like to take the road that is down to earth even if it is wrong. A normal person will not be like me, who focuses on a right but difficult thing for many years. No one will make inexplicable decisions. Taking such risks, thinking that I have overcome such difficulties, thinking that my IQ can hold things like this.
However, I still hope that there are people like this in China who are willing to take the lead in doing things right, and people who have studied for many years and finally honed the correct logic and way of thinking. It just so happens that such people are very practical and do not take illusions. People who calm their minds and are willing to die with the correct logic are just met by me. If you are such a person, I don’t have to talk nonsense~
Concluding remark: If you find it right, you will find that social conflicts will push you forward, because you are also one of them, you cannot escape, you will face it, like all the current hot spots are pursuing freedom and value Like the crowd, something must be done to change this status quo. Only the most knowledgeable and best people can read and join me. If you understand, I hope you find a way to collect this article, otherwise you will regret that you can't find it. This article is a manifesto, and you may see 10,000 very predictable articles. The article, but it is unique that can slowly open the future to you like this.
