I want to know if you took issue with “giving un-educated farmers and inexperienced students power over the life and death of statesmen, professors, scientists, writers, and artists, and to wantonly act out, without accountability, the most petty and horrific class and generational revenge fantasies in the flesh.” in the context of the US.
The author seems to believe the revolutionary justice aspect of the cultural revolution was wrong. I’m just wondering what people both during that time and now in the US should have done and should do to the millions of bootlickers and reactionaries.
Try them and kill them. Weed out the good from the bad. The Chinese didn’t always do this. Hence why feelings of the cultural revolution appear to be mixed at best.
I mean, I don’t like killing other communists so idk.

Depends on the scientists, professors, writers, etc.
How do we know that the farmers and students targeted the wrong kinds of scientists, professors, writers, etc?
Probably we’d need trial and investigation to determine that.
If they resist?
Let the army of the revolution deal with that. I’m not sure what you’re driving at.
