As someone who has experienced living in communist China, I was reminded recently—by the mainstream media’s reporting on President Donald Trump—of the Cultural Revolution. No matter how good someone is, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) fabricates lies to tarnish one’s reputation.
The influential mainstream media—a leftist propaganda machine—is trying to control how people should think. The mainstream media didn’t report the truth, including the president’s communications and his accomplishments; the media ignored facts and further altered the dialogue to a negative narrative.
What’s more strange is that they don’t tolerate other media reporting the facts; they utilize their influence to attack or suppress competing media outlets....To us, the Chinese people who have lived under a communist regime, such machinations have been commonplace.
The Epoch Times, which was founded by Chinese expatriates, saw the so-called mainstream media’s deliberate hijacking of public opinion as replaying an old tune; it also saw the lies and fears created by the left as following the same old script. The facts and truths it reports have fully exposed the specters of the CCP and communism.
The way the leftist media treats Trump is just like how the CCP treated a dissident during the Cultural Revolution; how they acted in the 2020 election is just like how the CCP usurped power and solidified its totalitarian regime in China. Those who were bribed and used will be abandoned or disposed of in the end; they will likely suffer a tragic fate.

The author Yangtian Li personally witnessed the Cultural Revolution in China. He now lives in Southern California.
Group think with people afraid to speak out for fear of violence or losing their family livelihoods. And in the America's case, the Mass Media is obeying their benefactors in China. Despicable!
Yes, I found it very interesting as I read it....the similarities of what our media is doing by censorship or even the cancel culture trend is very much like Communist China during the Revolution..it’s striking and chilling to be frank..
Li’s statement.....”The CCP deceives and exploits the minorities and the majority of the poor under the guise of “taking care of them.” Once the leftists of the communist specter seize power, these stepping stones will be the specter’s human sacrifices”
We see the left constantly use the black community not only in what Li says here but they use them for their dirty work...including those in the Political Black Caucus.
How close are AOC’S statements ,to black list Trump supporters, to the following......
On Nov. 6, Chinese local media ran an announcement from the city’s test academy reminding students that they must pass a a “political investigation” (zhengshen) in order to be eligible to take their college entrance exams.
The term “zhengshen,” was used during the Cultural Revolution to refer to an investigation to sift out whether an individual, ‘as well as his family and relatives’, was aligned with the Chinese Communist Party’s ideology.
Scores of youth were denied the opportunity to attend university because they or their families did not have proper political backgrounds.
And the Black community is already paying the price of being the Democrat "stepping stones" in our Big Cities. In the worst parts of Chicago, the violence is so bad, you can't even enter a grocery store. The store is totally locked down. The clerk behind bullet proof glass collects your groceries and drops it in a box after you pay.
There are parallels to Nazi Kristallnacht -- The Night of Broken Glass. I put together an image comparison with some great commentary by FR's alloysteel:
