本系统将于9月起自动更新至强制征缴模式。如无异议,即视为已同意所有条款。感谢您的配合。

上周我重看了《超人总动员2 Incredible》。

那段Screenslaver经典反派演讲依然让我头皮发麻:

“You don’t talk. You watch talk shows.”

“You want superheroes to protect you… and make yourselves ever more powerless in the process.”

Screenslaver 不是一个传统意义上的反派。他没有异能,没有军队,甚至没有真正的暴力。

他只是说出了我们早已知道、却不愿承认的真相:你以为你在选择,其实你在被设计。

这让我忽然想起最近国内的一个“合理而温柔的制度更新”——

从9月起,全民强制社保政策将正式推行

表面上它关乎“保障”“责任”“统一管理”,但实质上,却可能让更多本就收入不高、没有稳定雇主的人,被进一步“纳入系统”。

我不禁想,如果 Screenslaver 来到我们这片土地,他或许不需要制造眩光幻觉。

他只需要发一条公告——

一条冷静、克制、像政策通知一样的“系统更新提示”。

所以我写下了这段英文,模拟一个站在系统立场下、由控制者本人所写的反派宣言。🦹

你可以把它当作一则警告、一个暗喻、一份讽刺。

又或者,只当它是你生活里,每天默默点击“我已阅读并同意”的那张协议。


The Announcement

by The System

You think you’re smart.

You think you’re awake.

You think you’re resisting.


You’re not.


You pay.

You comply.

You adjust.

You adapt.


You fill forms.

You follow prompts.

You click “I agree” before reading a word.


You don’t ask why.

You ask when.


You post your doubts

on platforms I built.

You shout into feeds

I moderate.


You rebel with the tools

I gave you.

And still think

you’re free.


You think hard work will save you.

It won’t.

You’re running faster

on a wheel I designed.


You think long hours mean success.

They don’t.

They just mean

you don’t have time to think.


You believe that patience will pay off.

But only for me.

Your suffering is scheduled.

My profit is not.


You think you’re hustling to change your life.

But you’re fueling

a system I optimized for burnout.


You call it resilience.

I call it retention.

You call it survival.

I call it ROI.


You don’t resist the rules.

You gamify them.

You make aesthetic videos

about your own exhaustion.


You think you’re building a future.

You’re just paying for one

you’ll never reach.


You don’t read policies.

You believe posters.

You trade agency

for reassurance.

Dignity

for slogans.


You like soft words.

“Care.”

“Protection.”

“Solidarity.”

They taste better

than truth.


And while you scroll,

I file your data.

While you sleep,

I restructure your debt.

While you dream of leaving,

I build more walls

around your freedom.


So go ahead.

Plan your 5-year goals.

Subscribe to another productivity channel.

Write a post about healing.

Wake up at 5am.


Just know—


You are no longer in control.

I am.
