Millions of people died in the process. https://m.imgur.com/gallery/eyUnc It is not a surprise. My grandparents lived through the Mao regime and they had to experience the Great Leap Forward and the 100 Flowers Campaign. Lots of people were killed then. I had to look up the 100 Flowers Campaign. That was downright diabolical. Goddamn. The Hundred Flowers Campaign, also termed the Hundred Flowers Movement (simplified Chinese: ; traditional Chinese: ; pinyin: Bihu Qfng), was a period in 1956 in the People's Republic of China[1] during which the Communist Party of China (CPC) encouraged its citizens to express openly their opinions of the communist regime. Differing views and solutions to national policy were encouraged based on the famous expression by Communist Party Chairman Mao Zedong: "The policy of letting a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend is designed to promote the flourishing of the arts and the progress of science".[2] The movement was in part a response to the demoralization of intellectuals, who felt estranged from the Communist Party.[3] After this brief period of liberalization, Mao cracked down on those who criticized the communist regime. The crackdown continued through 19571959 as an Anti-Rightist Campaign against those who were critical of the regime and its ideology. Those targeted were publicly criticized and condemned to prison labor camps.[4] --- If you're going through hell, keep going. -Winston Churchill <cite>Squall28 posted [p:927653698] in If china i...
