    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.

        You don’t think doing this will “gave the global bourgeois powers endless ammunition to attack and demonise socialism”? I’m wondering why the author even mentioned this, like they ever needed anything to attack and demonize socialism to begin with.

          It doesn’t matter what’s given to the bourgeoisie in terms of ammunition and what not. I just want the working-class to achieve ultimate victory. That means having discipline. My viewpoint, and I could be wrong, is that it’s best to ascertain the good from the bad.
