Personal refection about the cultural revolution from the narrator’s point of view
This “revolution” is destroying china in so many ways it’s heartbreaking. The intelligence is diminishing and those who maintain the knowledge are persecuted as enemies of the state. The logic is baffling. Why would anyone think that this would improve china? We are forced to do work that we will never do again as if it would help. Even if we did all become farmers industrial development would stop altogether. It’s putting us back a century and we will be volurable to every possible hazard in today’s world.
