弗雷德里克·巴斯夏《经济诡辩》· Economic Sophisms · 投资
May God protect us from the devil and from metaphors! was the exclamation of Paul-Louis. And it is difficult to say which of them has done most mischief in this world of ours. The devil, you will say; for he has put the spirit of plunder into all our hearts. True, but he has left free the means of repressing abuses by the resistance of those who suffer from them. It is the sophism which paralyzes this resistance. The sword which malice puts into the hands of assailants would be powerless, did sophistry not break the buckler which should shield the party assailed. It was with reason, therefore, that Malebranche inscribed on the title-page of his work this sentence: _L'erreur est la cause de la misère des hommes_.

白话
巴斯夏引用保罗-路易的感叹:愿上帝保佑我们远离魔鬼和隐喻!他说魔鬼把掠夺之心放进人心里,但受害者还能反抗;真正可怕的是诡辩,它让受害者失去反抗的意愿和能力。施害者手里的刀本来不可怕,可怕的是诡辩打掉了受害者的盾牌。所以马勒伯朗士说“错误是人间苦难的根源”。今天也一样:让人放弃维权、接受不公的,往往不是暴力,而是一套听起来有理的说法。
上下文
巴斯夏在《经济诡辩》中引用法国作家保罗-路易和哲学家马勒伯朗士的话,强调诡辩比暴力更能瓦解抵抗。
今日一问
有没有一种说法,让你觉得“反抗也没用”?它真的成立吗?
