Li Nanyang: The U.S. election and the direction of society from my Life experience. (Photo credit: composite image)
Li Nanyang, daughter of Mao Zedong’s secretary Li Rui, is a representative of the liberal wing of the Chinese Communist Party system. She had spent several years taking Li Rui’s diary overseas, organizing and preserving it, and eventually donating it to the Hoover Institution in the United States. In a recent interview with New Tang Dynasty TV, she talked about her views on the U.S. 2020 presidential election. Mr. Bao Tong, who served as Zhao Ziyang’s assistant and political secretary, tweeted yesterday that “she has the style of her father, and Li Rui has a future.
In an article titled “America’s 2021 and China’s 1949,” Li Nanyang recently wrote about the 2020 U.S. election, in which she really began to realize the dangerous direction of American society, and how many social phenomena are very similar to those under Chinese Communist rule. In the article, she writes that she sincerely hopes that the year 2021 in the United States will not become the year 1949 in China.
In the interview, Nanyang Li said she was encouraged by her father to leave China after the June 4 Tiananmen Incident and bypassed the former Soviet Union for Europe, then moved to Texas to work on technology related to the Super Superconducting Collider, and then bounced between Berkeley National Laboratory in California and Stanford University as a magnet engineer before retiring in 2014. After retirement, he was hired as a visiting fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution until August 2020.
In addition to experiencing first-hand the experience of straddling two systems, Li Nanyang also gained a deeper understanding of the Chinese Communist Party by compiling his father Li Rui’s diary, and even overturned his earlier misconceptions about the CCP, “I still thought the Communist Party was quite remarkable in the early days, but it changed later… But after seeing my Parents‘ diaries and letters in Yan’an, I felt that this veil of the revolution was lifted. It’s actually quite ugly… In fact, these Communist people, including my parents, I think are particularly inhuman… Because the revolution made them lose their human feelings and humanity, this is a quite shocking to me.”
“The Communist Party is really a big dye bath… I think they were slowly, I think they were ‘spiritually polluted’, they were actually polluted by the Communist Party.”
“As a daughter I can say that the remarkable thing about my father is that under such a rule he maintained an independent personality, independent thinking, but as a person in his life, he was quite a failure, but I don’t judge a hero by his success or failure. But they really harmed themselves, they harmed our children… And then, to the detriment of this country… That’s a big feeling after I’ve walked this path of their lives.”
She believes that the more people who have had a deeper understanding of China and the Chinese Communist Party, the more they can realize the crisis that American society is facing now, “that is to say, we study it and hope that people will understand it because we hope that we will not repeat such a tragic history.
She said, “The first chapter of the first volume of Mao’s anthology is about class struggle, what is called class hierarchy, right? The class hierarchy in Chinese society says ‘who are our enemies and who are our friends, this is the primary question of the revolution’, right? I know this firsthand myself. I’ve been classified as a dog boy since I was nine years old. I just wasn’t a normal person, was I? By the Time of the Cultural Revolution, it was even worse. I suffered from this class classification. This class classification is actually the same as the black fate of the noble, that is, to divide people into classes or into classes or into colors.”
“You say for example, the interests of the poor peasants placed above the landlord class this, then when the poor peasants as a strong appear, the landlord’s life is not life. I look at my dad’s notes on that work and I get chills reading it. The Communists killed countless people, first by killing their own people… When it came to the land reform, it was really killing people, and when it comes to killing people, it’s not serious… When you divide people into different classes and different levels of people, there are some people who gradually become less human. There’s just a part of the population that will oppress another part of the population and go and take away the lives of another part of the population.”
According to Lee, the Democratic Party today has many similarities with the Communist Party, especially in that the top Democrats see themselves as “saviors” and “not slaves of the people.
“What did Trump (Trump) say when he left the White House? He said ‘I’ve worked hard to return this administration to serving the people.’ ‘A servant of the people.’ This is very remarkable. A lot of people so scold Trump, but I think they don’t see the essence of Trump.”
“I think the most remarkable thing about Trump, he is his campaign promises, he must go to fulfill. the BBC has a list, just say Trump’s promises which do, which do, which do. But where there is no not to go to do, it is not that he does not go to do, on Congress blocked him not to let him do.”
Li Nanyang warned that the U.S. 2020 presidential election is the division of the United States towards communism: “I believe that Trump’s public opinion on the voters is 70 million, I believe that in fact was done probably at least 20 million. That’s ninety million of these voters, and I think we can make people realize through our program that this is not an election defeat, this is a life and death struggle, and I think it’s the final struggle.”
“To say that if you let the election go on like this is to say that the United States doesn’t have the Nordic socialist system to go on, because the Nordic socialist system is still a democratically elected government. And if you only go up by election fraud, then it’s not a democratically elected government, it’s a government that goes up by fraud and forgery, and that’s going in the direction of the Communist Party.”
After the interview was published, Bao Tong tweeted her approval on Feb. 14, saying, “Nanyang has observed China for forty years and the United States for thirty. I appreciate her insight and admire her sincerity and candor. She has a fatherly style. Li Rui has a queen!
In addition, Han Lianchao and Professor Cai Xia, democrats living overseas, also talked about their views.
