Chapter 1430 Reason

Dragon-slaying illusion.

The coexistence of reason and instinct may seem to many people as a very incredible thing...

In most cases, when instincts arise, they are either extinguished by reason or break through the shackles of reason, and it is almost difficult to maintain two states at the same time...

Just like the so-called incompatible water and fire...

Many times, when people encounter some situations, they are forced to make a choice between instinct and reason...

Just like a gambler in a casino, when he has won enough money, his instinct must be to play and earn more wealth. This is the typical gambler's psychology. At this time, gamblers often think that they have won so much, take out the money they have won in one go, and if they lose, they will be considered in vain today, but if they win, it will be a huge harvest...

If you win, you want to win more. If you win thoroughly, you are a very typical gambler's psychology...

If you have to say something, this kind of mentality is a typical greed mentality...

It can be said that greed is a human being and a human instinct...

Driven by such thoughts, many people will subconsciously follow their instincts to do this...

However, in fact, his reason at this time often gives a completely opposite answer!

Yes, the exact opposite answer!

The gambler's reason will tell the gambler that he has won enough today and should be satisfied and stop...

At this time, the gambler must make a choice between reason and instinct!

Either follow your instincts and try to earn more wealth. Or choose to leave rationally...

And a person's gains and losses are often struggled between such reason and instinct...

Of course, this choice itself is not simply a test of a person's choice between instinct and reason. Most of the time, it depends on whether the things being chosen are important enough...

Simply put, for a rich man of millions, a bet of only a few hundred or a thousand is not enough to arouse their greedy instinct. For them, this level of bet is just a game, and no matter what kind of choice is, it is controlled by reason, and even reason does not need to participate in such a choice. Under such a mentality, most of this type of people will choose to gamble again, because for them, whether it is better to lose or win, it is not a damning thing...

Under such unrelated choices, most people will be more inclined to choose something more bold and bold, which is the so-called "watching the fun and not afraid of big things"...

Just like if a court votes publicly on the website after a criminal is convicted, and depends on the people's wishes, and decides whether the sentence is lighter or the sentence is heavy, I am afraid that the majority of people will think that the court's judgment is lighter and hope to increase the sentence. If it is some criminals such as rapists or human traffickers, many people will probably add the death penalty or life expectancy to be added to the penalty column without hesitation...

After all, it's just that I'm not thinking that things are big...

Of course, in fact, these two types of people were sentenced to death, to some extent, not an excessive amount. After all, even if this kind of case is not reported, it is already a relatively vicious case. If it is reported widely by the news, then the impact on social harmony is often very huge. If it is not sentenced heavily, it is easy to cause the breeding of similar criminal cases in society...

If a case is not reported, the social influence it actually causes is often very, very limited. If you want to say the harm, it will at most harm to the victim and the victim's family...

However, if a case is reported, the social influence it causes will often become huge and the harm to society will also have a great impact. In this case, if the criminal is sentenced lightly, it will cause harmony and stability to the entire society, cause greater secondary harm, and even lead to some people who have no idea of ​​committing crimes to go astray...

It is because of this that once most cases are reported, it will become very difficult to truly enforce the law fairly, because at that time, the will of the people will more or less affect the judgment of the law enforcement officers, and thus be forced to aggravate some of the punishment for the criminals to calm the anger of the people...

After all, this is the contradiction between law and morality. To a certain extent, it seems that journalists broadcast news is a just act that exposes the darkness, but this kind of justice act itself inevitably has destruction of social harmony and stability...

Of course, this does not mean that the actions of the news media are wrong. In fact, the actions of the news media are not problematic. The problem is that many news media always like to do something that is too bad. After a vicious case is reported, there is often no following. This often makes it easy for the public to fail to truly understand the thoughts. If you want the public to understand the thoughts, you must explain the causes and consequences of the matter thoroughly, especially the final result of the criminal, which is more important. Only by clearly reporting this point can you give the public an explanation, and it is considered that a news report is successfully completed...

In fact, news reports themselves are a process of uncovering scars...

The process of uncovering the scar may be very painful, but if you don’t do this, it will only in the end cause the scar to become inflamed and infected, and then become bigger and uglier. At that time, if you still want to deal with the scar, the price you will have to pay and the pain you endure will probably be much greater!

The reason why many news media are criticized is that they always ignore the scars of an incident after they uncover the scars of an incident, so that they convey some bad information to the society, making the public feel panic...

Such behavior is actually like a doctor performing surgery on a patient. After cutting the stomach open, he let it go. It was originally a behavior of curing the disease and saving people, but instead turned into a murder and a kind of injury...

Many times, some unscrupulous news media workers are often quite unconventional when reporting news, and they are so-called "no matters to do so". For them, as long as the news can shock the eye, they will not care about the impact on the parties involved...

In fact, such behavior is essentially an irrational and instinctive behavior...

Because your behavior will not cause any trouble to you, you don’t care whether your behavior is reasonable, and you will subconsciously do this...

It's like spitting everywhere. It's a very typical example...

If you are in some countries where spitting will be fined, almost no one will do this. However, in China, spitting is a relatively common behavior. The reason is nothing more than that, for many people, although they know that spitting is wrong, they will not be punished, so when they want to spit, they often do not have any concerns...

In this world, all behaviors, at the beginning, actually needed to be restricted by law. Using morality to restrict behaviors is always very unreliable...

Just like when a truck overturns on the roadside, there will naturally be some people snatching goods. Even though many of them know that such behavior is wrong, when they see others doing this, they can't help but do it. Because the law does not blame the masses, snatching behavior will hardly be subject to too many legal sanctions. And because of this, many people will habitually wait for the rabbit to wait for the truck they flipped, and continue to make extra money after they succeed...

Without laws and punitive measures, it is actually very difficult to rely entirely on morality to restrict a person's behavior...

The essence of morality comes from people's knowledge and cultivation on the one hand, and on the other hand, it comes from the habits brought to people by the law. If you are used to abiding by the legal provisions, you will naturally become more moral and cultivating...

Not to mention anything else, just take the seven non-standards from more than ten years ago as an example. If these seven standards were able to seriously regulate the code of conduct in public places and formulate punishment standards, I am afraid that by now, the entire social public order in the country would have been much better...

After all, without constraints, it is easy for people to liberate their instincts as they wish...

Especially when it comes to things that have nothing to do with you, or things that will not have adverse effects on you, this situation is often more common!

On the contrary, if something is crucial to oneself, then people's choices will often be more rational...

Let me give you another simple example...

In a challenging entertainment program, a guest on site had accumulated a bonus of 100,000 before when facing the ultimate test. If he passed the ultimate test, he could get a bonus of 200,000. However, if he did not pass the ultimate test, the bonus accumulated before would automatically return to zero...

Such entertainment programs are actually not uncommon...

However, in this kind of entertainment program, the choices of viewers and guests at the last moment are often the opposite!

The audience always encourages the participating guests to challenge the final difficulties. In fact, such encouragement is essentially because of the so-called mentality of not being afraid of big things when watching the excitement. On the contrary, the mentality of the participating guests is often the opposite. Often at the last moment, most of the guests will choose to retreat bravely...

Unless people who are not short of money at home will make such a gamble in the game, otherwise, for most families with not particularly high incomes, a bonus of 100,000 is actually a very large number...

It is of course very stupid to take out the 100,000 yuan that has already been in your pocket to get a doubled chance. This is of course very stupid. Most ordinary people will not and cannot make such a choice. As for the guests who eventually get the ultimate reward, they either own a lot of property at home and do not care about this little money. Or they are the ones prepared in advance by the program team...

For most ordinary families, making such a big bet is meaningless in itself. To take a 100,000 bonus, it is actually enough for them...

The more people value what they are, the more they dare not neglect at will, and the more they dare not make reckless decisions at will...

This is a very simple truth...

Let me give you another example...

Just like in many police and gangster films, there are often so-called kidnapping cases...

However, after the kidnapping case occurred, the mentality of the vast majority of the victims and relatives, the police and even the audience, will show a completely opposite mentality!

Of course, it is impossible for the police and the audience to compromise with the criminals, so they feel that the relatives of the victims should choose to call the police as soon as possible and should make the criminals pay the price...

The vast majority of viewers hate such criminals, which is also a very normal mentality. The vast majority of law-abiding people are very disgusted with the mentality of criminals because this type of person is not subject to order. Therefore, it is an unstable existence among the crowd. Such people. Only when they are sent to prison can ordinary people feel at ease...

However, under such circumstances, the behavior of the victim's family members often goes against ordinary people. They will try their best to meet the needs of the kidnappers, rather than tending to call the police. For them, the safety of their families themselves is the first priority. In addition, other things are things outside of their bodies!

It is because of this that in many police and gangster films, the non-cooperation of these victims' families often causes great trouble to the police's case handling, and even eventually forms a very bloody plot...

However, if you think about it from another perspective, you will understand that these two completely opposite mentalities represent the difference between reason and instinct!

Ordinary people are often rational when facing such things, so they will be very clear that calling the police is the best choice, but for the victims' families, they are more of an instinct of worrying about the safety of their relatives. Under such instinct, they may do some stupid things...

Of course, in a kidnapping case, ordinary people, the parties and the police, the mentality of the three can be said to be completely different. For outsiders, what they hope is that the criminals will be severely punished in the end, so that they will be in line with their interests. As for whether the kidnapped person can be saved, for many outsiders, they don’t care much about it...

On the contrary, for the parties involved, they care about whether the safety of their relatives can be guaranteed. As for whether the criminals can be finally caught, they don’t care, because for them, the lives and safety of their relatives are above everything else. Even if they want to arrest the criminals, they must be under the premise of the safety of their relatives!

For the police, their position is more complicated. They must ensure two points. First, they must ensure that the kidnapped person is as safe as possible. On this basis, they also need to arrest or kill criminals as much as possible. If any of these two cannot be completed, they may have adverse effects on the police. Of course, most of the time, the mentality of the police and outsiders is relatively consistent. For them, under the premise of catching the criminal, they are very sure that they can rescue the kidnapped victim. Even if the victim is unfortunately torn to pieces, they can at least ensure that there will be no similar crimes in the future...

The most important thing is that as long as they can prove that the victim was torn up, it is not because of the police's intervention, then basically, the case can be resolved relatively smoothly...

It can be said that if a person has a different mentality and a matter is of different importance to a person, then the person's choice is more rational or instinct will also be different...

The more important a thing is, the more people will tend to think from a rational perspective and pursue a sense of stability...

On the contrary, if something is not too important in itself, then people will make relatively random choices...

Just like an ordinary person, if he walks alone in a dark alley, he wants to spit, and basically spits everywhere. However, if there is an admirable opposite sex by his side, he will most likely not do this because he is afraid of destroying the other person's impression of himself...

The more you don’t care, the more likely you are to expose a person’s nature, and the more you care about things, the easier it is to act according to reason and rules...

In most cases, reason and instinct can never be integrated...

Because no matter how many choices you have, there is often only one final decision, so there is often only one between reason and instinct...

The story of beasts being worse than beasts. In this choice, there is always only one result. Either follow the instinct to become beasts, or choose to be rational and then beasts being worse than beasts. There is no third possibility...

Because, for the vast majority of people, their consciousness is always a whole. In most cases, they can only think of one thing and can only draw one conclusion...

It is because of this that when their instincts prevail, their instincts will be completely suppressed, and when their instincts explode, their instincts will disappear...

However, for Wang Yu at this moment, this is not the case...

Because when his reason and instinct appear at this moment, it is a perfect fit! (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
