【禁闻】“道歉太迟” 红卫兵领袖反思文革恶行

【新唐人2013年08月23日讯】现在全球媒体瞩目的焦点,莫过于中共前重庆市委书记薄熙来的世纪大审判。不过,在审判的前两天,中共已故领导人陈毅的儿子,文革期间的北京八中红卫兵领袖陈小鲁,发表了一封对文革行为反思的致歉信,同样也引发外界极大的反响。

陈小鲁文革时期是北京八中的红卫兵领袖,同时担任校革委会主任。8月19号,北京八中老三届同学会的博客上,发表了陈小鲁的对《发生在北京八中不堪回首的一幕》的反馈这篇文章。文章形容文革是不堪回首、令人恐惧的年代,他在信中表示,他的“正式道歉来的太迟了,但为了灵魂的净化,为了社会的进步,为了民族的未来,必须做这样道歉,没有反思,谈何进步!”

目前中国社会正处于热点爆发的时候。首当其冲就是薄熙来审判,另外一个就是刚刚结束的中共宣传工作会议,习近平提出的“坚持保党”的意识型态。资深媒体人高瑜认为,陈小鲁这个道歉来的正是时候,提醒民众不要忘记文革给全中国带来的伤害。

资深媒体人高瑜:“现在不许提宪政,整个国家不许提宪政,那不提宪政你提什么呢,那不就是造反?批判、唱红、读毛语录,就是这些东西,这个就使中国当时搞到无法无天,给中国带来那么大损失的动乱时期。”

1946年7月出生于山东的陈小鲁,是中共已故所谓“十大元帅”之一陈毅的儿子,是北京第八中学1966届高中毕业生。文革初期,他倡议并组建了首都红卫兵西城区纠察队,成为文革中第一个跨校际的红卫兵组织。有些资料显示,陈小鲁是红卫兵的代表人物。

中共前党魁毛泽东1966年发动的文革,时间持续长达10年。在毛泽东支持和鼓励下,红卫兵高喊“革命无罪、造反有理”口号,到处串联揪斗、打砸抢抄杀达到了疯狂的程度,给当时社会带来了极大的破坏。

陈毅在文革爆发后,1967年2月发生的二月逆流事件中,公开批评文革,影射毛泽东。1969年10月,陈毅被以战备为名,下放到石家庄劳动。同年在庐山举行的中共九届二中全会上,他又卷入了所谓二陈(陈毅、陈伯达)合流事件。1970年,陈毅因病回到北京,次年陈毅被发现罹患直肠癌。1972年1月6号去世。

时过境迁,即使文革已经结束将近40年,但文革遗伤一直影响着中国人的内心和生活。据心理学者研究,文革期间的少年们仇恨并背叛自己的父辈,却逐渐变得越来越像他的父母。遗伤与暴力在代际间悄然传递。

有网友认为,陈小鲁的举动,势必会掀起一波为文革道歉的风潮。时事评论员任百鸣则表示,这不太可能。

时事评论员任百鸣:“因为文革的发生,完全是由于中共一党专制的制度本身造成的,人在这个过程当中,就像在一个机器的螺丝丁一样,就是你必须是被这个机器所一起带动,是这部机器,就是它这个制度本身所驱动的,所以这不是个人反思或道歉的问题。”

这段期间,中国社会出现一些为文革唱好的言论和做法,有网友说,如果不希望文革在中国重演,关键是公布那段真实的历史,而不是继续盖着。其实有太多的真实历史需要我们知道,而不光是文革。

任百鸣:“大家可以看到,14年来迫害法轮功,已经就像一种类似中共文革的大迫害,甚至是更惨烈,发生活摘法轮功学员器官的迫害,而这个迫害也是全国性的,从上到下整个形式,其实就是文革的一个翻版,而且持续的在进行。”

陈小鲁在信中还强调,“如何解读文革是个人的自由,但是违反宪法,侵犯人权的非人道主义行为不应该以任何形式在中国重演!”

任百鸣表示,要真正的铲除文革余毒,不是光靠一个道歉就能解决,是共产党必须彻底解体,才能真正解决中华民族的前途问题。

A Red Guard’s Regret for Evils Done in the Cultural Revolution

Recently, the trial of Bo Xilai, Chongqing’s ex-Party chief,
has become the focus of global media coverage.
Meanwhile, Chen Xiaolu, the son of Chen Yi, the late
Chinese Communist Party (CCP) veteran, released a letter.
He apologized for what he did as a leader
in the Red Guards during the Cultural Revolution.
His letter has triggered a strong reaction among the public.

Chen Xiaolu was a Red Guards leader in Beijing’s
No. 8 Middle School during the Cultural Revolution.
On August 19, the school’s Weibo micro-blog
account posted a letter written by Chen.
In the letter, Chen describes the Cultural Revolution
as a “painful, frightening era".
He says that his “formal apology came too late".
“But we must make such an apology, in order to purify
the soul, for social progress and the nation’s future."
“Without introspection, there can not be progress!"

China now sees heated issues emerging.

First the Bo Xilai trial, now the CCP’s recent meeting
on propaganda work.
At the meeting, CCP leader Xi Jinping was insistent
upon “maintaining the survival of the Party”.
Gao Yu, veteran media professional, says that
Chen Xiaolu’s apology came just in time.
It is reminding the public to not forget the harm
that the Cultural Revolution brought to the whole nation.

Gao Yu: “Now the whole nation is forbidden to
talk about constitutionalism.
What the authorities advocate then——
isn’t that creating rebellion?
Things like ‘struggle sessions,’ singing
revolutionary songs, and reading Mao’s books,
all these are what made China a mess back then,
resulting in great losses and a turbulent era.”

Born in 1946, Chen Xiaolu is the son of Chen Yi,
now deceased, who was one of the CCP’s ‘Ten Marshals.’
At the beginning of the Cultural Revolution,
Chen Xiaolu initiated and set up the first
inter-school Red Guards organization.
He was considered a core figure of the Red Guards.

In 1966, ex-CCP leader Mao Zedong launched the
10-year Cultural Revolution.
The Red Guards, mobilized by Mao, advocated that
“revolution is innocent, rebellion is reasonable."
They traveled across the country to forge factions.

Their vandalism, riots and killing reached to
a crazed extent, and greatly damaged the society.

In February 1967, Chen Yi and other CCP veterans
openly criticized the Cultural Revolution, alluding to Mao.
In October 1969, Chen Yi was sent to Shijiazhuang
labor camp to for ‘Re-education Through Labor’.
In August 1970, Chen Yi became a target
during top-level infighting in the CCP.
Chen later returned to Beijing due to illness,
and died from colorectal cancer in 1972.

About 40 years later, the Cultural Revolution still
painfully affects the mentality and life of many Chinese.
Psychological studies show that the generation of youth
in the Cultural Revolution hated and betrayed their parents,
yet not they have gradually become more like their parents.

Today, the pain and violence is still passed down
between generations of Chinese people.

Some netizens say Chen Xiaolu’s move will certainly set off
a wave of personal apologies for the Cultural Revolution.
Commentator Ren Baiming doubts it.

Ren Baiming: “Since the Cultural Revolution was
completely created by the CCP authoritarian system,
during this process, people acted just like a machine part,
following the machine’s operation.
The machine is driven by the CCP system.
So it isn’t an issue of personal introspection and apology.”

Recently, some pro-Cultural Revolution voices and
practices have surfaced in China.
One netizen says the key to preventing a recurrence of the
Cultural Revolution is having the public know the truth of it.
In fact, we need to know lots of historical truths,
not just those limited to the Cultural Revolution.

Ren Baiming: “We’ve all seen that in the past 14 years,

the CCP’s persecution of Falun Gong is similar to
the Cultural Revolution disaster.
It is even more horrifying, with the harvesting of
organs from living Falun Gong practitioners.
It is a top-down and nationwide persecution,
it is a replica of the Cultural Revolution, and it is continuing."

In his apology letter, Chen Xiaolu says
“How to interpret the Cultural Revolution is a personal freedom,
but unconstitutional violations of human rights and inhumane
behavior in any form should not be repeated in China!"

Renbai Ming says truly eradicating the vestiges of harm
brought by the Cultural Revolution can’t be achieved with an apology alone.
Thoroughly disintegrating the CCP
is the real solution to the problem with China’s future.
