Mystic-Old-Man: Possibly, yes. Such a variant is possible.
Alexandr: Is it specifically about the place? Or is it because I chose this place,
and it was “irradiated,” so to speak, by the aliens? Or is it about the place itself?
Mystic-Old-Man: It’s about the pockets, because in different parts of the city,
time flows differently. It might be measured in billionths of a second, but
throughout the city, it is absolutely different for us.
Alexandr: All right, moving on. The system has literally been showing me
all week through movies and series — this is how it gives me information,
highlighting it — that it’s nearly the end for all colonizers. That all the colonizers
who seized the whole world — the Red Indians, the Africans, all the Asian
countries — everything they enslaved — it’s nearly the end for them. What is
this? Is it literally going to be this way in the future, or is this information
specifically for me?
Mystic-Old-Man: The fact is that the informativeness of society is intensifying
through computerization. I hadn’t been in the subway for 10 years. I entered
the subway, and it surprised me that all the people are different. How does
this “difference” manifest? First, they are all on their phones, and they are
open. They dive out of their phones constantly, and they are open. It was
interesting to me that they are all like that now. Ten years ago, they weren’t
on their phones, but they were closed. To me, this is a very strange nuance.
Just strange. So strange it struck me. That is, the phone doesn’t close them
off; it trains people to unlock. This “unlocking” is a very dangerous thing
for those who think they hold everyone by their money. The fact is, this
money can be torn away. And as this process intensifies and accelerates,
it will happen fast. They frighten us with “digitalization,” for instance.
Numbers — they will recount all the money in everything, in every pocket.
They will even expose all the fictitious money. It’s absurd. They frighten
us. More likely, it’s not us they are frightening, but they themselves are
frightened, so they scare us so that we voice our protests. That’s why I
don’t believe in digitalization, because no one will let their money be
recounted in their own pockets. No one. Well, sooner or later it will happen,
and then it will be the collapse of the financial system.
Alexandr: But some other system will follow it, then?
Mystic-Old-Man: Naturally. That’s the whole point — naturally.
