The Dictatorship of Thought

China is still a country which is gagged, constrained, and enslaved by the hypocritical and arrogant Communist dictatorship whose sole intention is to maintain and strengthen its power. It is a country where the freedom to express your opinion is only a utopian dream.

All Chinese students, from elementary school to college, are obliged to use textbooks based on the ideology of the regime. In these texts, which encourage students to hate, delirious falsehoods are written about the evils of the western enemy, the myth of class struggle, and the Communist Party, such as that history “chose” it to govern China. Texts of language and literature are used to exalt the party and to teach students to write “politically correct lies.”

It is no coincidence that there two institutions which have remained unchanged for 30 years, pillars of the Chinese Communist Party. They are the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Propaganda, which evidently collaborate with the sole objective of indoctrinating, controlling and destroying people’s minds, beginning when they are children, with the ideological propaganda written in scholastic textbooks.
These are just some of the many absurdities that the Chinese regime utilizes in order to render the population “narcotized.”
The young people who are not completely subjugated “get sick.” Forced to follow “strategies” in order to stay out of danger, they are induced into developing schizophrenic behaviors: they learn the official version of things while keeping to themselves the thoughts that they are not allowed to express.

At the beginning of the 1990’s, a group of intellectuals and teachers attempted to change things by preparing nine books for middle school students. These books, which presented history from the point of view of “total history,” were adopted by the schools of Shanghai in 2006. But this only lasted a few months. An article about these new textbooks published in the N.Y. Times by Joseph Kahn entitled: “Where’s Mao? Chinese Revise History Books” was pretence enough to trigger the authoritarian, terrible censorship of Beijing, silencing students and professors once again. The icon of Mao and his demoniacal cultural revolution must remain untouched. New textbooks were immediately banned from the schools.

The “dictatorship of thought” is still going on.
