We Must Resolutely Fight Against Rhetoric Aimed at Destroying the Republic's Foundation

This ID cannot tolerate even a grain of sand in its eyes. The traitors' collaboration with American subversion of China is all-encompassing. Taking advantage of ten minutes before lunch, I must write a few words.

Recently, some people have begun systematically revisiting the so-called old accounts of land reform, claiming things like "distributing land constitutes collective crime," "land reform was just duping peasants into rebellion," "landlords were actually nice people," and so forth. The simplest way for anyone to destroy a country is to start with its history. America's own history of disgrace has always been the filthiest, yet who's been whitewashing it? History is inherently forged in iron and blood. Using some absolute moral standard to demolish history—that's always been their favorite trick. But history has never been about morality. History cannot be destroyed. All discussions and demolitions of history serve nothing but present-day interests.

Of course New China had to smash all the old laws—what's there to discuss? Attempting to use old China's laws to judge New China's actions is both tedious and laughable. Peasants—those who take all existing conditions as natural and heaven-ordained—must be shaken awake, told that nothing existing is heaven-ordained, that all relations of production are destined to be broken by history. Landlords, eliminated as individuals—no need for crocodile tears. History is like this. History is iron and blood.

Those who get duped are those who can be duped. The truth of history is: those who get duped are those who can be duped. If anyone has the skill, go ahead and dupe everyone back into primitive society—see if you can or can't. Another truth of history is: deception can be met with deception, or it can be met with the barrel of a gun. And history has proven time and again that those who don't understand the barrel of a gun, who abandon the barrel of a gun, are either harboring ulterior motives or are the greatest fools under heaven.

Alright, ten minutes are almost up. Heading out. Goodbye.
