X22报告｜第2219集:经济体系准备过渡，深州帝国将会衰落

“Violence as a way of achieving racial justice is both impractical and immoral. I am not unmindful of the fact that violence often brings about momentary results. Nations have frequently won their independence in battle. But in spite of temporary victories, violence never brings permanent peace. It solves no social problem: it merely creates new and more complicated ones. Violence is impractical because it is a descending spiral ending in destruction for all. It is immoral because it seeks to humiliate the opponent rather than win his understanding: it seeks to annihilate rather than convert. Violence is immoral because it thrives on hatred rather than love. It destroys community and makes brotherhood impossible. It leaves society in monologue rather than dialogue. Violence ends up defeating itself. It creates bitterness in the survivors and brutality in the destroyers.

”暴力作为实现种族正义的一种方式是不切实际和不道德的。我并非没有注意到这样一个事实，即暴力往往带来短暂的结果。各国经常在战斗中赢得独立。但是，尽管有暂时的胜利，暴力永远不会带来永久的和平。它解决不了任何社会问题: 它只是创造了新的和更复杂的问题。暴力是不切实际的，因为它是一种不断下降的螺旋，最终导致所有人的毁灭。这是不道德的，因为它试图羞辱对手而不是赢得他的理解: 它试图消灭而不是皈依。暴力是不道德的，因为它是以仇恨而不是爱为生的。它破坏社区，使兄弟情谊变得不可能。它使社会处于独白而不是对话的状态。暴力最终会战胜自己。它在幸存者中制造痛苦，使破坏者感到残暴。

In a real sense nonviolence seeks to redeem the spiritual and moral lag that I spoke of earlier as the chief dilemma of modern man. It seeks to secure moral ends through moral means. Nonviolence is a powerful and just weapon. Indeed, it is a weapon unique in history, which cuts without wounding and ennobles the man who wields it.

在真正意义上，非暴力是为了弥补精神上和道德上的滞后，正如我前面所说的，这是现代人的主要困境。它试图通过道德手段来达到道德目的。非暴力是一种强大而公正的武器。事实上，它是历史上独一无二的武器，可以毫不伤人地切割，使使用它的人变得高尚。

I believe in this method because I think it is the only way to reestablish a broken community. It is the method which seeks to implement the just law by appealing to the conscience of the great decent majority who through blindness, fear, pride, and irrationality have allowed their consciences to sleep.

我相信这个方法，因为我认为这是重建破碎社区的唯一方法。这是一种寻求通过唤起绝大多数正派人的良知来实施正义法律的方法，这些人由于盲目、恐惧、骄傲和非理性而让他们的良知沉睡。

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

黑暗不能驱逐黑暗，只有光明能做到这一点。恨不能驱逐仇恨，只有爱能做到这一点。
