【新唐人2012年11月07日讯】最近中共在各种重大会议中罕见的不再提“毛泽东思想”，而被舆论认为，中共当局十八大后可能“去毛化”﹔与此同时，河南四名男青年因撕毁毛像，遭警方传唤，引发网民的强烈不满，网友发起“‘喜迎’撕八大，对独裁说不”的抗议活动，并且纷纷撕毁毛泽东等独裁者的头像，拍照上传到网路。
日前，河南省郑州市曹小东等4名青年，在郑州紫荆山广场毛泽东雕塑背后，撕毁毛的画像，表示对毛的唾弃，并呼吁中共“去毛化”，照片上传网路后迅速被热传，这些反对毛泽东的贴文并没有被封锁。但11月1号深夜，曹小东被传唤，警方声称，要对另外三人也进行传唤调查。
曹小东只因撕毁毛的画像就遭到警方的传讯，激起了网民的愤怒，许多作家、记者、律师、名人等纷纷发声，要求警方立即放人。有网民警告当局，如果再不释放曹小东，将会掀起大规模撕毁毛泽东画像活动。但直到2号，曹小东仍没有被释放。
当晚，网路上发起“‘喜迎’撕八大，对独裁说不”的抗议活动，网民对世界各地的独裁者画像进行撕毁践踏，而画像多为中共的独裁者。
网友屠夫：“本来这个东西是没有什么，但是因为他们（警方）传唤后，激起大家生气，所以大家就用这个行动来声援郑州那几个青年。然后也表示自己的看法。其实是挺好的一个事情，去神化，回归它（毛）本来的面目，让更多人知道真相。 ”
“权利运动”组织负责人胡军指出，中共拚命掩盖毛泽东的罪恶丑闻，网民就通过这样的行为艺术来表达对中共独裁体制的憎恨。
“权利运动”负责人胡军：“以前共产党把毛泽东供为神，但是我们现在从历史可以看到，中国共产党在中国犯下的累累罪行，这些年轻人都开始觉醒了。我们看撕相那些都是一些比较年轻的，80后，90后，他们在互联网了解事实真相，他们知道中共邪恶的体制，跟现在的人，跟过去都带来了严重的灾难，所以人民开始用实际行动来唾弃中共。”
长期以来，大陆民间要求清算毛泽东的呼声不断，8月底，曾亲历毛泽东政治运动的一批老知识份子联名上书十八大，要求“彻底清算毛泽东的滔天罪行”。
老人们说，毛泽东以中共的名义执政27年，发动了一个又一个的“政治运动”，受难者从“胡风冤案”的成千人、“反右冤案”的几十万人、“反右倾”的几百万人，一直到“文革十年浩劫”的上千万人。据不完全统计，毛泽东一共制造了8千3百万冤魂、3千万件冤案、3亿多人受批斗，超过了中国历史上所有暴君恶行的总和。
大陆维权律师李天天：“所谓的一代伟人，无非是一个杀人狂魔，让人鄙视的一个狂魔。而这个邪恶的政府却在维护这个杀人狂魔的名誉，可见这是什么样的政府，也是一个杀人的政府，极端邪恶的政府。维护它的名义的目地，实际上就是想维护这个可恶的制度。这个大家都很清楚。”
10月3号晚间，福州一群网路活跃人士也曾发起大规模撕画活动，他们将印有毛泽东像的画撕毁践踏后焚烧，并将这些照片上传到新浪微博，但随即被删除。
李天天：“每一个老百姓的醒悟就是在摧毁这个制度，我觉得这是好现象，这个制度存在63年了，只有到现在这个发达的网路时代，老百姓更多人了解了真相，有机会表达这种老百姓真正的想法，这标志这个体制快完蛋了。”
最近，大陆官媒的几篇报导中，再没有提及“马列主义、毛泽东思想”等。11月4号，中共发布十七届“七中全会公告”也没有提到毛泽东思想，外界解读，中共政权十八大后，有可能抛弃所谓的“毛泽东思想”。

Public Tear up and Trample on Mao Zedong’s Portraits
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has oddly stopped
mentioning Mao Zedong’s Theory in major conferences.
After the 18th National People’s Congress (NPC), the CCP will
get rid of Mao Zedong, according to public opinion.
Meanwhile, in Henan Province 4 young men were
summoned for tearing up Mao Zedong’s portraits,
triggering strong dissatisfaction among netizens.
Now an online movement to ‘Tear to Welcome the 18th NPC
and Say No to Authoritarianism’ has been launched.
The public have been tearing up Mao’s portraits
and uploading photos to the internet.
Four young men in Zhengzhou, Henan Province tore up
Mao’s portrait behind his sculpture at Zijingshan Square,
showing their abandoning of any loyalty to Mao
and calling to get rid of Mao’s ideology.
The photos were soon spread online without blockage,
yet on November 1 midnight,
the police summoned well-known Chinese artist
Cao Xiaodong and the other three men involved.
Cao Xiaodong was detained for tearing up Mao’s portrait
and this irritated netizens.
Many writers, journalists, lawyers, and celebrities have
asked the police to release him immediately.
Some netizens warned the Chinese authorities, saying
“if you do not release Cao Xiaodong,
we will set off a massive movement to tear up
the portraits of Mao Zedong”, yet Cao Xiaodong was still not released that day.
On November 2nd, night, an online protest was launched to
‘Tear to Welcome the 18th NPC, Say No to Authoritarianism’.
Netizens tore up and trampled on portraits of dictators
from around the world, most of who were from the CCP.
Netizen ‘Butcher’ said, “It was nothing originally, but
Cao Xiaodong was summoned, which made everyone angry,
so we are supporting the several young men in Zhengzhou.
It is a very good thing to go deified, and return to his (Mao’s)
original face, so that more people will know the truth."
Hu Jun, who is in charge of a rights movement organization,
says the CCP has tried desperately to cover up Mao’s evil,
so netizens utilized this performance art to express their
hatred towards the Chinese Communist dictatorship.
[Hu Jun, Leader, Rights Movement Organization]:
“In the past, the CCP worshiped Mao Zedong as a god.
But from history we can see the numerous crimes
committed by the CCP in China, and these young people have started to wake up.
Those are young men who tore up Mao’s portraits—born in
the 1980s and 1990s—they learned the truth online.
They learned how the evil CCP system has brought disasters
to people now, as they did in the past.
So now people are starting to abandon the CCP
through their own actions.”
To liquidate Mao has been called for in China for a long time;
at late August, some elderly intellectuals who had witnessed
Mao Zedong’s political movements,
handed a joint letter to the 18th NPC,
“to completely liquidate Mao’s evil crimes”.
They said, Mao Zedong was in power for 27 years in the CCP
and had launched political movements one after another.
The victims ranged from thousands in the ‘Hu Feng injustice’;
to hundreds-of-thousands in the ‘anti-rightist injustice’;
to millions in the ‘anti-rightist movement’;
and to tens-of-millions in the ‘Cultural Revolution’.
According to incomplete statistics, Mao Zedong had caused
83-million innocent deaths, 30-million cases of injustice, and
over 300-million cases of persecution in political campaigns;
causing the worst sum of evil of all tyrants in Chinese history.
[Li Tiantian]: “A so-called ‘great hero’ is nothing more than
someone who went on a killing spree and who’s being despised,
but this evil party is maintaining his reputation.
We can see what a regime it is, a murderer’s regime,
and an extremely evil regime.
Its purpose to keep its name is to maintain its evil system;
this is clear to everyone."
On October 3, evening, a group of netizens also launched
a massive movement to tear up portraits.
They tore up books with Mao’s portraits, and trampled on
and burnt them, sending their photos to Sina microblog;
yet postings were deleted shortly afterwards.
[Li Tiantian, Human Rights Lawyer in China]:
“People are awakening to destroy the system; it’s good.
This system has existed for 63 years but now it’s developed
into the Internet-era and more people understand the truth
and have the opportunity to express their ideas—
this shows the system will end soon."
Recently, in several official Chinese media reports, there’s
been no mention of Marxism-Leninism or of Mao’s Theory.
On November 4, the CCP released the 7th Plenary Notice of
the 17th session, but did not mention Mao Zedong Theory.
Outsiders believe that after the 18th NPC, the CCP may
possibly get rid of the so-called ‘Mao Zedong Theory’.
