Chapter 167 The Self-Destructing Truck Stole the House
Just as Zhi Zi had said before, Lin Xuan's violent approach quickly provoked a significant backlash among the lower classes.
Although the Cradle Project failed, human civilization has never lacked saints.
Lin Xuan's tough stance on the Trisolaran refugees is bound to provoke discontent, which could damage the friendly relations between the two civilizations, which have only been established for less than a century, and lead to a stalemate between the two sides.
As a result, many people on the internet began to strongly condemn Lin Xuan's actions.
"When two countries are at war, they should not kill their envoys. This is an unspoken rule since ancient times. No matter what the Trisolarans' purpose is, it should be discussed in a meeting after they arrive on Earth, rather than imprisoning their consciousness in the brain network as soon as they meet."
"Lin Xuan's actions undoubtedly expose his hegemonic ideology. This is blatant dictatorship and autocracy. Humanity should not be led by such a person."
"Lin Xuan is a treacherous villain, nothing more than a hypocrite who covets power. I suggest that the Earth Alliance should abolish his status as a monitor as soon as possible."
The official Dilian organization quickly deleted the last comment from a netizen and personally visited him to offer their support.
Are you kidding me? Asking the Earth Alliance to abolish Lin Xuan's identity?
You really can't tell the difference between the King and Queen, can you?
The Earth Alliance was established to this day thanks to Lin Xuan. The last force that dared to speak to Lin Xuan like that is now buried under three-meter-high grass.
The noisy people were mostly people born in the era of deterrence. They had not experienced the PDC era and did not know what the name Lin Xuan really meant.
But both the hibernators and the immortals were well aware of this, and they all joined in the online flame war.
In no time, this online war of words swept across the entire internet, affecting almost all brain-network users.
"People who say this, is your brain only the size of a swallow's shell? If you don't need your brain, you can donate it to someone who does."
"I really don't understand how you dare to use the brain network built by Lin Xuan to criticize him here?"
"The Trisolarans are treacherous and ambitious. You didn't live in our time, otherwise you would never have said that the Trisolarans would come to Earth."
"Old man, hurry up and drop some gold coins! This ancient treasure is lecturing you again!"
"That's hilarious! Dude, you didn't study history properly. Go look up the modern history of the Earth Federation. Lin Xuan coveted power? If she really wanted power, she would have become the Swordholder herself long ago."
"I acknowledge your offensive power, but your angle is wrong. I think 98-octane gasoline should be mixed with 42-octane concrete..."
While the internet was abuzz with arguments, Lin Xuan herself was smiling broadly.
His fame had gradually declined with the changing times, and after many years of not making a splash, many people had forgotten his glorious deeds.
However, as this wave of online flame wars continued to escalate, more and more people began to delve into Lin Xuan's past.
The deeper they dug, the more they discovered that Lin Xuan's appearance seemed to permeate the entire modern history of the Earth Alliance, and his shadow could be found in almost every major historical event.
He was the one who broke through the wall of all the Wallfacers, and also the only Wallfacer who successfully broke through the wall.
He was the chairman of the PDC who destroyed the PDC, and also the leader of the ETO who destroyed the ETO.
The founder of the space elevator project, the promoter of controlled nuclear fusion technology, the chief designer of the mirror project, and the owner of the Zhiyuan Star Space Station.
He single-handedly ushered in two major international eras, preserved 100 star-class warships for the final war, and completed the Van Gogh Project, defrauding the Trisolarans of three major technologies: the warp drive, the sophon tweezers, and antimatter.
His achievements can only be compared to those of Luo Ji, the swordsman.
Although Lin Xuan made invaluable contributions to human history, he didn't want to end up like Luo Ji, so he intentionally had Luo Congmin conceal his story in history. Unless people actively seek information, few know how fascinating Lin Xuan's true past was.
Now, when people look back at that period of history, they accidentally discover that Lin Xuan almost always saved human civilization from dire straits at just the right time.
The feeling was quite peculiar, and of course, I was shocked quite a bit.
However, some people still use the Three-Body Problem immigration issue to question whether Lin Xuan's actions were inappropriate.
After all, the Crisis Era was an era of war, and it was understandable for everyone to be tough on the Trisolarans. But now it is the Era of Peace and Deterrence, and the two civilizations should focus on peaceful development.
Clearly, after witnessing Lin Xuan's actions, these trolls and online trolls have become more restrained.
After all, everything they have now was created by Lin Xuan, Luo Ji, and other people from the Crisis Era. They can question it, but they must not deny it entirely.
Therefore, their attack shifted from whether Lin Xuan was worthy of the role of human monitor to whether Lin Xuan's actions as a monitor were inappropriate.
Lin Xuan no longer needs to intervene; Luo Congmin can easily resolve this public opinion crisis.
She did not choose to clear Lin Xuan's name, nor did she choose to ban those people from using the brain network.
After all, getting a troll to agree with your point of view is basically as impossible as a high school student publishing 31 SCI papers in a row. If that were to happen, well... you know what I mean.
Therefore, Luo Congmin chose to do the opposite.
She instructed a large group of experts to begin spreading various opposing views online.
For example, we should grant the Trisolarans and humans the same human rights and apologize to the Trisolarans for this matter.
There seems to be nothing wrong with this statement itself, right?
Online trolls and haters think so too.
So they began to subtly regard this expert as their leader and spread this viewpoint across the entire internet!
Just as they were gloating over finally having official experts supporting their views...
Then came the betrayal from Luo Congmin.
The experts they hailed as leaders suddenly began to make increasingly outrageous statements.
"We should encourage every household to support one Trisolaran and show them the goodwill of humanity on Earth."
"What if the Trisolarans come and can't fit on Earth? If humans have fewer children, they can live with humans. I suggest depriving those with low education and those with genetic defects of their reproductive rights and sharing some of the population resources with the Trisolarans."
These experts' perplexing statements were immediately met with a barrage of attacks, leaving even their online supporters and trolls bewildered by the criticism.
"Holy crap, what's going on? How can this expert be making such outrageous statements?"
"Wasn't everything fine before? Why are you suddenly making confusing statements?!"
The online trolls and haters collectively generated a wave of shock, and at the same time, they were almost overwhelmed by the barrage of criticism.
In the past, when they criticized Lin Xuan, everyone just took it as a joke, and at most a few of Lin Xuan's die-hard fans would come out and argue with them.
But now, by openly siding with these experts who made these confusing statements, they have directly become enemies of humanity.
This is a classic case of a self-destructing truck stealing the enemy's base. The trolls and online commentators never understood how they suddenly became enemies of the whole world in a single day.
