At 20:00 late at night, in a rundown factory area in Everland.
Andre, the owner of the paint factory, sat wearily in his old truck, covered in paint stains all over his body, clutching a hospital bill tightly with both hands. The dim lights in the factory area shone through the car windows and reflected on his face, revealing endless exhaustion. He lowered his head and looked at the bill, which was clearly written with a suffocating number.
He dared not go home, dared not tell his wife and children all of this, and cried bitterly in the car.
It's just a flu... it's just a minor illness, "he murmured, his voice weak and bitter. Despite this illness, he and his family had to bear huge debts, and his life savings were swallowed up like ashes by this cold number. In the truck, he couldn't suppress the pain in his heart, tears silently streaming down his face.
He took out his phone, took a deep breath, turned on the recording function, and cried in a trembling voice, expressing the suppressed pain in his heart:
I have been working hard all my life, arriving at the factory at 4am every day and working tirelessly until late at night. What's the point? "He choked up and paused for a moment
Andre in the video is covered in paint spots and has tears on his face. This scene, with endless heartache and anger, deeply hurt every viewer of the video. After the video was released, it quickly spread on social media and within a few hours, countless people forwarded comments. On the message board, the voices from the bottom kept rising one after another, forming a surging wave of anger:
Not just you, this is the situation for all of us
If we continue to remain silent, we will only be squeezed dry by these vampires
The dilapidated social and civilian facilities, streets full of drugs and homeless people, but those damn tycoons and politicians are still indulging in extravagance in the tavern and meat forest
The people need resistance, society needs change
Raken and everyone saw this video and were deeply infected, so they used the dark web and base channels to quickly spread the video through the global network.
Justice oriented self media organizations across the country have responded one after another.
Andre's words became a spark, igniting the hearts of millions of people. The dissemination of the video has caused a large-scale resonance, with accusations and painful stories constantly emerging, slowly spreading from every factory, every street, to the entire city.
A large number of grassroots workers, hospital nurses, factory workers, and small vendors have been sharing their stories and expressing their dissatisfaction online.
This event, like a spark, quickly ignited people's pent up anger and the entire global Internet! The video went viral on the world's largest video website, with over 100 million reposts and comments in just three days, and countless views.
Three days later, in the city of Everland
The whole city suddenly came to a halt, all vehicles stopped, factories stopped, schools stopped, companies stopped
The crowds in the city are surging, and angry people are constantly taking to the streets. On the street, Andre stood at the forefront of the protesting crowd, with angry yet determined faces behind him. Workers, nurses, teachers, cleaners, company employees, and even retired elderly people in the entire city stood silently on the streets. There are no slogans, only silence. The streets are so quiet that even breathing sounds can be heard clearly.
Everyone was holding various slogans in their hands: 'Right to survival', 'Fairness',' End exploitation '. An elderly cleaner lowered his head and raised the banner with trembling hands, tears leaving marks on his face.
Suddenly, a piercing and chaotic sound rang out without warning. The originally calm crowd suddenly became restless and uneasy. Amidst the commotion, a young man shouted loudly, "We can no longer remain silent! We must persevere and bravely fight for our rightful rights and dignity
Abandoned government!
Abandon the tyrannical government!!
Abandon the tyrannical government!!!
This powerful and determined shout, like a blazing torch, instantly ignited the entire street. In an instant, the crowd seemed to have been injected with infinite energy, and they all opened their throats, shouting hysterically. The banners held high in their hands, accompanied by their arms that were almost trembling with excitement, kept swaying in the air, like fluttering flags in the wind.
At the same time, people are like a tide, constantly surging from every corner of the city. Whether it's bustling commercial areas, peaceful residential areas, or remote and deserted alleys, everyone gathers towards the central square of the city with the same belief. That place became their common destination and a stage for them to express their demands.
Even the police officers who usually patrol are now infected by this strong atmosphere. They took off their uniforms symbolizing authority and responsibility one by one, gently placing their tightly held weapons aside, and without hesitation, stepped into the crowd. Their faces clearly depict a complex expression of anger and unwillingness intertwined. These law enforcers who once maintained social order have now chosen to stand on the side of the people and support this struggle for justice with practical actions.
Everyone feels like they're on fire!
This movement was like a raging hurricane, rapidly sweeping through every inch of Everland with overwhelming force, creating waves wherever it went. From bustling and noisy metropolises to peaceful and tranquil small towns, no one is spared. Workers in various places have launched massive strikes like ignited powder kegs. They put down their tools and work, took to the streets, and expressed their inner anger and dissatisfaction with their firm and powerful steps.
Angry crowds surged like a surging tide towards government agencies in multiple cities, tightly surrounding them. They waved their fists and shouted slogans, demanding that the current government step down immediately and carry out a thorough reform of the current system. The policies that have long oppressed and exploited the working class have become a target of public criticism and must be completely abolished.
In the factory area, the cries of protest echoed through the sky, as if they were about to break through the sky. The voices of the workers converged into a powerful torrent, pounding the defenses of the capitalists. Those bosses who were usually arrogant and conceited have now lost their former prestige, and can only be forced one by one to leave the office and face the angry public.
Old Kahn led a group of brave and fearless workers, like a vanguard charging forward, into the magnificent building symbolizing power and rule with great momentum. He stood on a high ground, waving his arms and shouting, 'Today, we finally regained our own rights!' These passionate and generous words were like a spark, instantly igniting the enthusiasm in the hearts of the people around us. Suddenly, cheers and cheers erupted one after another, deafening. Even the soldiers who were originally ordered to suppress were infected by this powerful force, their loved ones and parents, their people. How could they aim their weapons at them?! So they all put down their weapons and resolutely joined the ranks of the people.
As the protests grew louder and stronger, the Everland government was like a crumbling building that could no longer sustain itself. Under the pressure of the people, this corrupt and declining regime had to declare its dissolution. Subsequently, a brand new public committee emerged, carrying people's aspirations for equality, justice, and mutual assistance.
At this moment, people feel an unprecedented sense of freedom and liberation. They embraced each other, wept with joy, and celebrated this hard won victory together. In the new order, everyone is closely united and actively organizes a self-management system. Each person is exerting their talents and wisdom, contributing to the construction of a better society.
Raken and his companions watched everything quietly, their hearts filled with satisfaction. He knows that the planet Okra is moving towards a future that truly belongs to its people.
