The Cultural Revolution was a tool Mao used to persecute his enemies within the party to retain his power. Millions suffered so an aged vain tyrant could stay on top. The Chinese Communist Party had its roots in blood and still is a bloody, corrupt organization.

I’ve watched parts 1 and 2 and it occurs to me...are we talking Bejing 1966 or DNC Headquarters 2007?

Wait until you get to part 4, then you'll see just how perceptive that comment really is

Did I get that right : 4th graders break into their house and plaster the inside doors with threatening posters, and the owners leave the posters up for 3 years?
To: secretagent
Yes. They left it up to serve as wittness to the events that took place. Quite honestly, I’m surprised these videos even made their way to the internet. I suspect it won’t be long before Youtube is blocked in China.

This is what will happen if the leftist kooks here ultimately gain power.

Organized madness. Did the government fear a recurrence of the CR at Tiananmen Square in 1989?
