When Political Terror Becomes a Sex Symbol
I browsed the account of Mao Zedong’s dream girl created by a Japanese girl on Twitter today. I deeply feel that the Internet allows us to see the details of all the weird things that we used to need to see through literature. It is really abstract and difficult to interpret.
I think this kind of thing is not difficult to understand at all. In "Dream of Paris", the portrait of Mao Zedong on the bedroom wall and the young European and American young people holding the red book, if they are obsessed with only a symbol, a kind of doctrine, then today's Mao Zedong Dream Female, it is purely to turn the indelible horror in our eyes, or the worship left over by most Chinese people, into a playable sex symbol, so smart and light.
It seems to be something that every Chinese can't do in their lifetime, because so far, we haven't been able to get rid of the two emotions mentioned above, and we are still pulling sharply at both ends, with no results, and never dialogue. Let his shadow loom over you.
This Mao Zedong dream girl transfers all comments about herself to the front page, both good and bad, which also form part of her majestic universe. I saw someone commenting: Human beings are the past, the present, and Mao Zedong's dream girl.
I then scrolled forward and found that she was fifteen years old and learning Chinese: "Since the day before yesterday, I have received a lot of direct messages, but I can't reply. Therefore, I will write down the questions that this tweet often responds to and write Answer."
The first of the following is what everyone cares about:
"Why do you like Mao Zedong?"
"Even I don't know why. One day, I was worried about him. Finally, when I saw him, my heart was pounding. He was so cool..."
It's nothing, it's very understandable, sexual desire has nothing to do with love, how can it be related to politics.
I feel that Mao Zedong, whether positive or negative, has been endowed too much by the Chinese, so heavy that we cannot accept the most common thing in the Internet age. When we say "You are not allowed to be Mao Zedong's dream girl!", will it be the same as "Long live Mao Zedong Thought!"?
Nothing lasts forever, including adoration or hatred for Mao Zedong. Just imagine that one day the Chinese people will be able to appreciate this kind of strange thing, and laugh it off without any harm. Maybe that is when his portrait was taken down from the Tiananmen Gate tower.
Like my work? Don't forget to support and clap, let me know that you are with me on the road of creation. Keep this enthusiasm together!
