You right. You should take this hammer out of comrade Mao hands and smash your stupid commie face.

While I do have some criticism of Mao Zedong Thought and it's successor philosophy...
...indeed we do need to revolt, not just politically but socially. There is no other way.

Me agrada la idea de tu obra "The Need for a Cultural Revolution", ya que en mi pensar personal, la educación es el medio para hacer una revolución real.
No comprendo muy bien esta obra, ya que un hombre destruyendo físicamente "el pasado burgués" no es propiamente lo que mencionas en "TNfaCR"; tal vez se debiste plasmar algo como "quien olvida su pasado, está condenado a repetirlo".
Fuera de todo esto, tu obra es un buen uso del ingenio (y las manos).

bit of a Maoist propaganda style mixed with your own constructivist style I see.

however, the catastrophous and insane form of "cultural revolution" that happened under Mao's regime should be avoid I think, not sure this method was any efficient, nor really fitting the ideal. Cultural changes mustn't turn to fanatism and religious-like dogmas.

The stated purpose of Mao's Cultural Revolution was to prevent the takeover of China by revisionist politicians that would restore capitalism.
Just a few years after the end of the Cultural Revolution, China was taken over by Deng Xiaoping and his revisionist followers, who proceeded to restore capitalism.
So the Cultural Revolution was an obvious failure even by its own standards,

It seems that it will be reminded as nothing less but a (big) stalinist purge.
I wonder if Maoist China would have collapsed, even without Deng Xiaopping's policy? But in spite of the huge and saving economic improvement Deng's policy gave, I don't have any sympathy for the man. He was the kind of guy to have students and liberals slaughtered on Tiananmen square.

Maoist China wasn't doing badly, economically speaking. It wasn't doing GREAT, but not badly either. They started industrialization, brought education to the countryside, and provided most Chinese people with basic health care for the first time ever.
What would have happened if Deng's faction had not won? The entire world would be different. Remember that the neoliberal form of capitalism that has dominated the world for the past 30 years is based on corporations being able to use cheap labor from China. If China had not joined the capitalists, then neoliberalism might not exist.

Agreed. The problem with most socialistic countries was that the political system changed, but people did not. Communism is impossible to build without a cultural revolution.
