Chapter 267 Political Correctness in Demacia

Demacia's anti-magic policy is essentially the same as Noxus' expansion policy. They are just tools for the ruling class to ease conflicts and maintain stability.

After Levi made this clear, Seraphine could understand why Demacia needed to implement the ban on magic policy for hundreds of years.

But there's still one thing she can't understand:

"But, Levi..."

"Since the anti-magic policy is only a ruling tool for Demacia's powerful aristocrats, why are these powerful nobles themselves passively restrained by this anti-magic policy?"

Tools of rule are naturally used by the ruling class to rule the ruled classes.

As the ruling class, Demacian nobles should theoretically be completely transcendent of this set of ruling tools.

But the reality is not entirely like this.

"Just like the secret mission Demacia sent to Zaun this time - the leading ambassador is the kingdom's top noble, Lady Ogesha from the Crownguard family."

"She should be considered a ruler in the ruling class, but because of the ban on demons, she has to carefully discuss it with others for a long time before she can finally make up her mind."

"This is why?"

Although they had already talked a lot, Seraphine was still chatting with interest and had no intention of stopping to rest.

She broke away from Li Wei's overheated embrace with some agitation, and then didn't care about the hem of her dress that was too short, so she curled up her fair and slender legs in an unladylike manner, and sat cross-legged in front of Li Wei in a relaxed manner. Down.

She waited for Levi's answer with expectant eyes.

Why does even a great noble like Ogesha, who can theoretically transcend the policy of banning demons, talk about demonic lust like this?

And Levi's answer was: "Because the anti-magic policy has continued to develop in Demacia for hundreds of years, it has long been more than just a realistic tool of governance - it is both a realistic tool of governance and a kind of transcendence. The main theme of reality is the absolute political correctness that has been formed in the Kingdom of Demacia for hundreds of years."

To use an inappropriate analogy, the idea of ​​banning demons is actually the "state religion" of Demacia and the "Four Books and Five Classics" of Demacia.

Priests and priests can do blasphemy in private, and gentry and scholars can do many obscene things in private that can make saints angry. Anyway, God is not the goddess Jana. He will not really come down to earth to talk to you.

But in public, on the surface, priests should abide by canon rules, and scholars should act according to the moral principles in the scriptures.

If we openly violate the "scripture", we are severing ourselves from the vested interest groups gathered together by this "scripture" and blatantly destroying the legal order in which they protect their vested interests.

"A vested interest group?" Seraphine tilted her head: "But aren't those Demacia nobles themselves a vested interest group?"

She still doesn't quite understand. Why are these nobles restraining demons and controlling themselves?

"Haha." Levi smiled: "Seraphine, you still made the mistake of personifying the group."

"The Demacian nobles are not one person, but a group of people."

"When there are more people in a group, factions will form. As a result, there will be many small groups within the large group. When the small groups grow, they may in turn isolate the large group. Their interests are not completely consistent."

"Noxus, for example."

Levi took Noxus, which he had analyzed before and which Seraphine was familiar with, as an example.

"Although Noxus has a certain need for external expansion, don't you think that even if there are domestic conflicts that need to be transferred, Noxus' expansion policy in recent years is too radical?"

"The whole country was mobilized and fought on four fronts. The war dragged on for a long time without any success. Not only did the conflicts fail to be transferred externally, but they also rapidly intensified and expanded internally."

"Don't the Noxians know that they can no longer fight?"

In fact, almost everyone in Noxus knows this, including the nobles in the court. But they just refused to cease fighting.

"Why?"

Most people might say that this is because Emperor Darkwill is crazy.

But Levi and Seraphine both know that Darkville is basically a puppet of the Black Rose and the aristocratic group. Whether he is crazy or not actually has little impact. The real decision-makers are the aristocrats.

So why do these old nobles refuse to cease war? Obviously, the war did not bring any benefit to Noxus at all. Instead, it plunged the empire into a quagmire.

"Because these old aristocrats have split into a huge interest group within the imperial aristocracy during many years of foreign wars - that is, the Noxus military-industrial complex."

"Although the wars in recent years have not benefited the empire, they have brought huge benefits to the empire's military-industrial complex."

“These old aristocrats are making a lot of money from military purchase orders, and they are confident in their strength and feel that they can suppress all dissatisfied opposition forces in the country. Of course, they hope that the war will last as long as possible and let them earn as much as possible. "

"Even if the mad emperor really wakes up and orders a truce, they would probably dare to let Darkville take a ride in a convertible."

"As a result, under the control of the increasingly expanding military-industrial complex, the policy of external expansion has increasingly become the mainstream trend of thought in the Noxus Empire, and has become an absolutely unquestionable political correctness."

Levi was talking about Noxus, but he was also talking about Demacia.

"Violating the anti-magic policy in Demacia is the same as openly opposing the war in the Noxus Empire. Even if you are a noble noble, you cannot openly challenge the political correctness of the empire like this-"

"Because you have offended the entire military-industrial complex of Noxus, a large group of vested interests."

"I see..." Seraphine seemed to understand.

Because Noxus's policy is external expansion, a huge vested interest group has been formed in the years of external expansion wars, a military-industrial complex controlled by the old aristocracy.

As the power of the military-industrial complex continues to expand, it in turn kidnaps the people of Noxus both inside and outside the court, making the empire's expansion policy even more extreme and unquestionable.

What about Demacia?

"Demacia's policy is to ban internal demons..." Seraphine tried to analyze using Levi's thinking:

Because Demacia's policy is to ban demons internally, a huge vested interest group has been formed in the policy environment of banning internal demons for many years——

"Demon Searcher Corps." Levi said this answer.

“As long as a political unit exists for a long time, interest groups will inevitably form around it;”

"As long as an interest group exists for a long time, it will inevitably pursue the expansion of its own power and strive for more benefits for the group."

The military-industrial complex of Noxus is like this, and the Demon Seeker Corps of Demacia is like this.

That’s why Noxus’s desire for expansion continues to expand as if it’s been shot to death;

That’s why Demacia’s ban on demons has become more stringent as time goes by;

Therefore, regardless of political correctness in any form or subject, as long as there is no stronger force to restrain it, it will eventually become irrevocably expanded and extremized, just like LGBT that has gradually evolved into lgbtqiapkdx.

"At the beginning, the Demon Searcher Corps was only responsible for arresting evil mages who had committed crimes."

"Later on, even mages who have not committed any crime will need to be expelled from the Kingdom of Demacia."

"Later on, even underage children and demon-poor people who pose no threat, as long as they have magic power, the Demon Seeker Corps has the power to arrest them."

"More and later, mages were even completely deprived of their human rights. Demon hunters had the power to break into any house in Demacia and search for anyone they suspected of being a demon-contaminated person."

"In this way, this ban on demons has been implemented for hundreds of years, and the Demon Seeker Corps has also existed for hundreds of years. Their power and influence have expanded to the present..."

Until now, even the nobles of Demacia no longer dare to openly violate the ban on demons. If a mage appears in a big noble's family, he must be carefully hidden. If there is a mage in the family of a small noble, the demon searcher will be even more unkind.

The Demon Searcher Corps has transformed from a humble special law enforcement department at the beginning into an unprecedentedly powerful independent violent agency that combines the characteristics of a military unit, a police unit, and a special agent unit.

"With such a behemoth in the country, if I were Jarvan III, I probably wouldn't be able to sleep well at night." Levi showed a smile as if he was waiting for a meal.

"If this old king cannot satisfy the Demon Seeker Corps' growing desire for power, he may one day end up similar to Darkwill."

"Even worse:"

"For example, convertibles, shotguns, and 'coincidentally' encountering a mage riot, inexplicably dying in a heavily guarded palace...etc."

Levi so sensationally predicted.

Seraphine nodded her head in concentration.

Levi clearly explained the social background of Demacia and analyzed the internal contradictions of Demacia. In other words, he clearly explained the what and why behind the problems, helping those who came after to recognize the reality and pointed out the direction.

Seraphine didn't understand before.

But now she certainly knows how important a clear and correct direction is to those who desire change.

"Levi, you should write all these analyzes of yours into articles."

"Just like you wrote "Why Noxus Fights" and "Who Can Save Noxus" for Noxus before, write these words down and print them for those Demacians who are thirsty for change. !”

Seraphine jumped up on the bed excitedly.

She raised her white and tender bare feet and stepped over Levi who was already lying down unceremoniously, as if she couldn't wait to get out of bed to find pen and paper to help him record his latest work.

"Okay, okay." Levi quickly grasped Seraphine's slender ankle before she had time to pull away, preventing the girl from jumping out of bed in a hurry: "You are right, Seraphine." Ni."

"But..."

Levi looked at the deep night outside the window and turned off the power, leaving only a night light that could illuminate the bed.

"It's getting late."

"I'll write the article tomorrow."
