大貧民の革命｜Revolution of the Great Poor｜2020/08/26

昔トランプで大貧民というゲームをした。３が一番弱くて、４、5、6、、、という順番で２が一番強い。同じ数字４枚揃うと革命が起きて、その順番が逆になる。このようなことが現実的に起きている。新聞の報道だが中国で１機数万円のドローンによる集中攻撃の開発が進んでいるという。数十億円のパトリオット迎撃ミサイルでは対処できず、今まで構築してきた防衛が役に立たなくなるらしい。またコロナで今までの強みが弱みになってしまったところも多い。大貧民の革命を耐えるのか、悲しむのか、チャンスと捉えるのかでは未来が変わるのかもしれない。（絵と文：サカキテツ朗）
Once upon a time, I played a game of card called “the great poor”. 3 is the weakest, and 2 is the strongest in the order 4, 5, 6.... When four same numbers are gathered, a revolution occurs and the order is reversed. This is actually happening. According to newspaper reports, the development of a concentrated attack by cheep drones is progressing in China. The billion-dollar Patriot interceptor missile can't handle it, and the defenses which has built up until now seem to be useless. In addition, there are many cases which the strengths up to now have become weak in corona. The future may change depending on how I feel to the revolution of the great poor, which is enduring, sad, or seeing it as an opportunity.　-Text and illustration by Ted Sakaki
