Criticise Lin, Criticise Confucius
A great campaign which began in China in 1973, in order to criticise and
repudiate the revisionist line of the renegade Lin
Biao, a
rightist and an opportunist who had 'waved the red flag to take the red flag down' and peddled bourgeois and Confucian ideals in order to subvert the
proletarian dictatorship. In 1971 this rat tried to launch a coup against Chairman Mao, but failed and subsequently died in a plane crash in Mongolia while trying to flee to the fascist Brezhnevite Soviet Union (
NOVWL). The campaign was part of the broader Great
Proletarian Cultural Revolution, and shook the remnants of bourgeois culture and feudal mentality in China, dealing a harsh blow to the revisionist line as workers criticised Lin and the ancient slave owner representative Confucius, and began to build a new socialist consciousness. As expected, it was ended by the fascists when they seized power in their 1976 counter-revolution. It remains a great example for oppressed masses around the world, with the GPCR itself being the greatest step towards the ultimate goal of communism.
