A video from a Chinese summer camp surfaced on Twitter from US-based Chinese activist Jennifer Zeng.
The camp is most likely the Red Sun camp in Shaoyang Hunan, but China has a lot of military-themed summer camps for kids.
At the one featured in the video, kids learn to bayonet Japanese soldiers, fire mortars, shoulder bazookas, and shoot guns at a range.
The Japanese soldiers are dressed in World War II uniforms in a nod to the Japanese invasion of the Chinese mainland. And the anti-Japanese audio in the video was lifted from two different Chinese movies: My Chief and My Regiment and Snow Leopard.
"China has almost perished! The people of Hunan will be the first to perish!"
"The day the Japanese pirates are eradicated is the day my son returns home! Mount your horses and kill the enemy! Those are the true colors of a man!"
If it weren't for President Xi Jinping beating the war drums and threatening both Japan and Taiwan, I'd just say these camps look like a lot of fun--though the bayonetting people thing is a bit extreme.
But I don't see any smiles on these kids' faces.
This looks less like a fun summer getaway, and more like a boot camp.
What do you think China is preparing for?
reminds me of 1950s and 60s boy scout camps and other camps.
Looks like creating Mao youth.
The new Red Guards.........................
Why do we never have that kind of commies here?
Is China encouraging the gender/queer/trans horsemanure in the USA so as to become the #1 world power?
“Is China encouraging the gender/queer/trans horsemanure in the USA so as to become the #1 world power?”
Do they need to?
What the Nazis and the Japanese did with their schools and camps in the 1930s.

Meanwhile in 3rd Grade Boys & Girls Public School Bathrooms (no it's not a condom dispenser.)
Those who learn nothing from history are doomed to repeat it.......................
the girl is holding a Kalishnikov left-handed with no magazine
Must be the first day of training.
You'd be surprised about the fun of shooting the big stuff. The only thing I didn't like was the recoilless rifles. M60s? Yay! 81mm mortar? Yay! 105mm howitzer? Yay! M79? Yay!
Complete with bayonet.
Looks like creating Mao youth.
call them whatever bad names you want, compared to what we are churning out here...............
WE ARE SCREWED
We had archery at summer camp. Bet sharp pointy things are nixed these days. Ack, can’t trust kids not to intentionally shoot another camper.
At least Chinese kids are learning a skill.
Polish Boy Scouts fought during the 1944 Warsaw Uprising.
A propaganda video from a Chinese summer camp surfaced on Twitter from US-based Chinese activist Jennifer Zeng.
She swallowed it whole-cloth. All part of their multi-billion dollar propaganda campaign to convince you that they have the best form of government and the most fearsome and powerful military in the world.
.....sent here by the CCP to gather all info and destroy our country on behalf of the felony Biden family! .... imho
Indeed but at least kids here know what lgbtlmnop means.
