The world without heroes
The anonymous network publication from April, 1st, 2100.
To begin with we will designate an axiom. Banal, but from it not less e-e... The axiomatic. In the millenia the society is squeezed out in the first rows of the people characterised by the bashful term "by the person original". Actually it is a question of an obvious deviation from conditional mental norm. We want that or not, in avant-guard of a policy, a science and iskustva always there are citizens not absolutely adequate. Actually, on that it and avant-guard. I quote the dictionary: "the division following ahead of the main forces on purpose not to admit of an attack on them of the opponent". With avant-guard are covered in front on a march and frequently ruthlessly endow. But the army kernel is in time competently peregrupirovatsja. The whole complex of problems Thus dares. Minimisation of casual losses - time; achievement of the tactical superiority or at least balance - two; maintenance of a natural decrease of unbalanced persons, and speaking simply, heroes - three.
Certainly the third problem is realised and dares at level unconscious, and is faster than the collective. It is difficult to believe, that it in general is. But if to look from strategic heights, the answer arises itself. In the world there was a mechanism of self-defence of mankind from outstanding persons who can too "shake a boat". A charm of this mechanism that it unattended. The new generation grows, in it there is an autoselection - exarticulation among harmless talents of potentially dangerous talented leaders-heroes. Parting forcibly all elbows, heroes strain to be in action. And soon appear on the top of a public pyramid. What, the purpose is reached, it is possible to throw the people on struggle against world harm? An is not present. It appears, over a presidency anvil zavis a public opinion hammer. It is necessary to you to move - the slap will be distributed and splashes will depart.
We are proud of controls and counterbalances of democratic system of the power. Three centuries it was required, that this piece has earned as follows. Actually it also system of protection of a society from the hero, at which and the fool... That is the hero is full, and we are whole.
Alas, in the twenty first century the system has outgrown itself. It still does not allow to heroes to blow up the world, but allows them to play the fool. To it has bothered to sponsor loonies, it was accepted to us.
Here lyrical digression is required. Some remember, probably, that calculation of critical weight of heroes (that is persons with the lowered instinct of self-preservation) for separately taken states is already made. The corresponding text has been thrown in the Network exactly one year ago. Praise to the Allah, has made it group of intellectual hooligans, and final figures have been apprehended by a society as next maloprilichnaja a joke. Though if to ponder, in the fact of the publication of research at date of Fools their affinity to clinical norm is reflected both an internal fright raschetchikov, and. At these children with a self-preservation instinct it's OK. They understand: it is impossible seriously even to stammer that in some quite dear countries the number of the bright and charismatic loonies who have been put forward by the people on form-building administrative posts, already reads off scale. Well, we will not stammer, we will try to tell. The next attack of heroism of the power, i.e. a scale trouble approaches. It is a little more time - and something can occur. What exactly? I do not know. But in any case it will be arranged as the big good business, and actually - to lay behind a side of normal human logic. On us will palm off tragical nonsense in a blessing wrapper. One hope that will do without mass victims.
Let's look, paternal the such happens. We will assume as a basis, that ingenious leaders not absolutely fools. However already with IQ 125-130 money for pre-election campaign is money for a wind. The typical leader is distinguished not by intelligence, and a so-called passionarity. It can be broken into four components. Sensation of the internal importance; deep understanding of that all around idiots; readiness to put a stomach on an altar; not realised desire to rise from an altar still krashe, than was. Speaking usual language, it is simply unrestrained thirst of the power. Only for the time being sublimirovannaja in improbably powerful appeal.
But remember, what we spoke about a hammer and an anvil? Today, having seized upon a wheel, "the father of the nation", creaking teeth, tries to be kept in frameworks of operating decencies. And it would be desirable to act heroically all the same! Bor-r-rotsja!!! And then there comes time of well planned feats. In the last century range for self-sacrifice even more often chose not fatherland, and any remote exotic edge. Where, of course, and so there is a Fighter-son, but at the kid does not suffice silenok in struggle with... Well, let us assume, with inflation. Or nedoinfljatsiej, reinflation, a hyperinflation, gomoinfljatsiej, pedoinfljatsiej, nekroinfljatsiej - necessary to underline. Here to the aid the Fighter-father also will come. And as behind his back looks through a gloomy face of the World Trade Organization in a role of the Fighter-SPIRIT-sacred... In general, ritual action under the name "struggle borbuchaja" begins. The country of the Fighter-father is happy, because the thunders called by ritual and lightnings will fall on another's terrritoriju. The spirit too rejoices, after all Synulja will experience a strong fatherly hand. Well, and that do ispokon to a century with Sons - behind common knowledge we will hold back.
By-effect of creation of foreign ranges for the in the lead hero and the fighter - preservation of prestige of the native state. One of truly heroic tactical characteristics - inability long to remain in a latent condition. Dekompensirovannaja the mentality of the leader should take away from time to time collected steam in hooter. Good, start up it will be pozorishche like the sexual contact which has come up on the world review - not there, not with that, and not how it is necessary, - or the spontaneous loud statement not in that address, not with that intonation, moreover and from absolutely sober eyes. Where promotion of a promising economic reform in rather safe country is more terrible. Or struggle for the rights of minority there where on these minority before all to spit, that they live for a long time to themselves as want.
And on this background - full indifference to problems which have really hung over the world. We will recollect, that frightened mankind in the XX-th century. AIDS, a cancer, ecology, drugs, the Soviet threat, Islamic threat, hunger in Africa, flashes of teenage violence at us. In XXI th - the same set, only instead of the Soviet threat there was a problem of the Russian-Chinese industrial integration. Which in the future is for certain transformed to the Russian-Chinese threat. All of us have lowered on brakes! All of us have postponed on then! Why?
That is why that us heroes still operate. The people programmed on bright acts, but not capable to pawn long-term programs. And to disappear from them absolutely there is no place. Remember that it was created in the countries, gone through horror of totalitarianism? In Stalin Russia, Hitlerite Germany or Kampuchea of times Pol Pot? You did not ask a question - paternal after wreck of cannibal modes the public consciousness encouraged to the power at all the best maniacal ambitious men? Perhaps by inertia? Or believing, what the wedge is knocked out only by a wedge? Probably. But only through very short term the amicable cry was distributed: "Will suffice from us passionariev and harizmatikov! Is in this country though one decent manager?" . And who climbed up a pedestal? All the same harizmatik, only representing from itself the manager. Alas, the professional manager in a role of the national leader - a Utopia. The leader in a role of the manager, but not on the contrary is required to the country. Being the governor, the mayor, the industrialist it should show characteristic line of the hero. To make an act; being expressed it is literally - through something to cross. And then it it is pushed out upward. It is pushed out, being unconsciously protected - and what kind, will get there with force. Above it will be already controllable. But excuse, and what from it to use, from the controllable hero? What will it do above - to fool around, plant demagogy and to threaten with a nuclear fist to the same foreign poor fellows? U-ups... Our system Has gone bankrupt!
It is deadlock. Return my money, me have inflated. The world has strangled the heroes controls and counterbalances. Also remained the ship without officers. To float in a condition, to reach somewhere - like hell. The mechanism of self-control started to protect us from the genius-villain, has turned to the global gendarme who is not supposing break in one in the slightest degree of significant area. The twenty first century remains the most sad century in mankind history. How, unless there were no achievements? Yes as much as necessary. But it is strictly limited achievements. We hoped for medicines for AIDS and a cancer? These illnesses are still incurable, but what at us shaking immunomoduljatory! Were afraid of global religious war? We have not admitted it simply as superfluous - Islam and without war wins. Russian with Chineses? Nonsense, their expansion can be constrained trading and power quotas. To breathe there is nothing? Here and Russian with Chineses were useful - to reduce to these slanting Slavs a quota by fuel burning, and business with the end. Thereby we will delay for themselves the burdensome moment of change on electromobiles. Well there was no us an eyelid (!) for corresponding re-structuring of economy, excuse! And our electromobiles rubbish. What there still? The Ozone gap over Australia dangles? And there is nothing to live under it. Africans starve? Will starve, destiny at them such, but all the same we starving will organise the program of sterilisation. Drugs? And here to you safe psychoactive means - any direct harm to an organism, one psychoses and neurosises. Kiddies at schools arrange executions? To curtail sale of the weapon and to toughen the control over display of scenes of violence at cinema. How, all the same shoot? Good, in XXII th century we will understand, that else it is necessary to take away from them...
And worst of all short circuit in frameworks uzkonatsionalnyh interests. It would Seem, unique rescue from all troubles - to introduce to each earth dweller consciousness of the citizen of the world. Let it three times Islamite, twice Russian and the Chinese in addition, all the same it ours. All of us - ours. The uniform world. The general problems (they after all and so the general!!!). Anything similar. All have become silent, skukozhilis and only zyrkajut periscopes because of such outwardly transparent and visa-free, and actually steadfast borders. Fie!
We have definitively got used to do a good mine at bad game. Here the present and unique global achievement of the XXI-st century. We in a condition with deep arguments to give out any dirty trick and the nonsense, any willfulness and thoughtlessness for blessing and strategic calculation. The basis of such policy has been put in pawn still hundred years ago when it became clear: XXI th will be a century of accidents. We did not want, that the prediction has come true, and have not allowed to it to come true. What price? perepasnuli terrible problems to following generations, and all affairs. It is not very a shame to us at all - we really do not know, how these problems to remove. We do not have the leaders, capable to mobilise a society on their decision. After all our leaders, as well as hundred years ago - born... Leaders! And we very much hold them for collars.
Not becoming a century of accidents, XXI th has appeared an epoch of the world braking. Any essentially new concepts! Any fresh ideas! Silly to console itself, that so natural recoil after a mad rhythm of XX th, centuries really heroic in the worst sense of this term was showed. More likely we have run into global cowardice. And to what sometimes it would be desirable, that the present hero has come, one and only, and has told: you that, misters, have absolutely terrified?! And well, bystrenko, have gathered all and have sat down for the big strategic game. We will calculate, that for us waits in hundred years, and at once, immediately, today, we start to struggle for that it was not. Or was. In general to struggle, yet late... "Yes it abnormal! - people will tell. - but to what the rights!".
Perhaps in it also there is a basic global problem: madwomen vlastoljubtsev on a planet multitudes, and for rescue of mankind the hero is required only one.
