Beast Press: I suddenly remembered Jiao Guobiao today. I know him because of his article "Crackdown on the Central Propaganda Department" published in March 2004, but on September 12, 2012, after he was criminally detained on suspicion of "inciting subversion of state power", there was no news of him. He became a "missing man in intellectual history," and Googled his status.

Jiao Guobiao was born on November 21, 1963 (the sixth day of the tenth lunar month) in Qi County, Kaifeng, Henan. Jiao Guobiao has obtained a bachelor's degree in Chinese literature from Henan University, a master's degree in ancient Chinese, and a doctorate in journalism from Renmin University of China. He later served as an associate professor at the School of Journalism, Peking University.

In April 2003, he published the poem "To the American Soldiers" in support of the United States' launching the US-Iraq war. There are verses in it: "If you are destined to die in war, you will be the undead under the American precision-guided bomb".

In March 2004, he published the article "Crackdown on the Central Propaganda Department", accusing the Central Propaganda Department of implementing a policy of ignoring the people and advocating freedom of the press. The article was originally published in Open magazine and has since been widely reprinted on the Internet.

In March 2005, he was invited by the National Endowment for Democracy to be a visiting scholar in Washington, D.C. for 6 months, and was unilaterally removed by Peking University as an "automatic resignation". The school believed that he went abroad to visit without approval, and Jiao believed that it was revenge for his writing "Crackdown on the Central Propaganda Department".

In July 2005, he published "Zhu Chenghu is China's Bin Laden", criticizing the appalling remarks made by Major General Zhu Chenghu of the Chinese People's Liberation Army for launching a nuclear war.

In November 2005, He Gao Zhisheng investigated the Chinese government's persecution of Falun Gong practitioners.

In November 2009, when Singaporean Senior Minister Lee Kuan Yew outlined the benefits of China's leadership system at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), Elliott remarked, "It is not a democratic system." Lee Kuan Yew then retorted, "The Chinese are very interested in democracy. The system is not interested". Jiao Guobiao published an article saying, "When I read this report, I immediately became furious. Chinese people certainly want a better life, but they want more votes." Cai Ziqiang, a senior instructor in the Department of Politics and Administration at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, also questioned: "Lee Kuan Yew did not Qualified to represent the Chinese."

On September 12, 2012, Jiao was taken away from his home by the police and later detained on suspicion of "inciting subversion of state power".

Jiao Guobiao was mentioned in Der Spiegel's program on February 19, 2019.

[“In March 2004, Jiao Guobiao, then an associate professor of journalism at Peking University, caused a sensation when he published the article “Crackdown on the Central Propaganda Department.” However, under the circumstances at that time, Jiao Guobiao was not immediately dismissed or expelled from Peking University.

After more than ten years of thinking, reflection and precipitation, compared with 15 years ago, Jiao Guobiao's thoughts and views in 2019 have undergone tremendous changes. Now he believes that freedom of speech is not the highest value.

He said: "Freedom of speech is not the highest value. There is a higher value than freedom of speech. What is this value? It is social stability, harmony, and the interests of the whole society."

He also said that personal freedom of speech may affect social harmony and other issues, and sometimes it is inconsistent with social interests, which will cause some negative things.

Jiao Guobiao is 55 years old this year, and he was less than 41 years old when he published the "crusade against the Central Propaganda Department" more than 14 years ago. He said that there is now a "forty-year-old phenomenon" among college teachers. Most of the "accidents" teachers are in their 40s and under 50. They have certain qualifications, professional titles, and certain academic attainments. The golden age of lectures and academic research. Teachers in this age group have many "accidents", which are worthy of consideration and research.

Jiao Guobiao was invited by the National Endowment for Democracy to be a visiting scholar for 6 months in March 2005, and was dismissed by Peking University as an "automatic resignation". For many years, Jiao Guobiao has no public office, and now he makes a living by writing and selling characters. The spirit of ten years ago seems to be gone, and passion is replaced by what he calls thinking and rationality. He said that it is worth considering whether the interaction between teachers' academic freedom and school supervision can change from "contradiction" to "construction". Jiao Guobiao believes that a harmonious and non-contradictory relationship should be established between the school, teachers and students, not an "inferior" interactive relationship between students reporting - school investigation - teachers being punished.

"Overall, it simply boils down to too much control, which I think is too singular. The problem is not that simple, it's a very complex movement," he said. ] ( Der Spiegel 19 February 2019)

Hayek said: "In an autocratic society, it is not that those who do not work will not eat, but that those who do not obey will not eat." For example, smear him first, then cut off his source of income, block his interpersonal communication, lower his social prestige, and gradually marginalize him...

And the damage of these ten years of marginalized life to a thinker is an issue worthy of further study.


Jiao Guobiao: Crusade the Central Propaganda Department

What is the bottleneck of the development of Chinese social civilization at present? It is the Central Propaganda Department (and the entire Propaganda Department system). What is the current stumbling block for the development of Chinese civilization? It is the Central Propaganda Department. Who is currently China holding up the biggest and most powerful protective umbrella for evil forces and corrupt elements? It is the Central Propaganda Department. What to say? Everyone knows that China does not have too much freedom of the press, but too little freedom of the press. I wonder who made the already meager freedom of the press to be deficient again. It is the Central Propaganda Department. The degree of freedom of the press is the degree of civilization of a society. Western sages said that there can be no government without freedom of the press. The Central Propaganda Department regards press freedom as an enemy, and even the words "press freedom" are not allowed to be used arbitrarily. This is clearly a blatant violation of the minimum standards of civilization. The Propaganda Department of the Central Committee has degenerated into the bastion of the most ignorant and backward forces in China today. While they gain power and bribes, the image of the party and the government, and the civilization and progress of the country have all paid a heavy price. If it is allowed to run rampant and abuse power and bring harm to the country, not only will it sink into the Avici Hell, and the great cause of China's reform and development will also be greatly reduced, and the progress of China's political civilization will be greatly delayed. Intellectuals were also disgraced. Therefore, we have to fight against the Central Propaganda Department regardless of our health.

1. What happened to the Central Propaganda Department? The Central Propaganda Department suffered fourteen serious diseases

The first major problem caused by the Central Propaganda Department is the sinicization of the way of work. Many people have seen Zhao Shuli's "Little Er Hei Gets Married", and now the way the Central Propaganda Department works is comparable to Xiao Er Hei's father Er Zhuge and Xiao Qin's mother San Xiangu. In the eyes of these two great gods, it is "not suitable for planting" today, "not suitable for traveling" tomorrow, not suitable for marrying a daughter-in-law the day after tomorrow, and not suitable for marrying a daughter-in-law the day after tomorrow. Isn't the Central Propaganda Department's rectification of the news media similar to this virtue? Jiang Yanyong is not allowed to be mentioned today, SARS is not to be reflected on tomorrow, there are new taboos the day after tomorrow, the media must not be said to be a "public tool", and so on. How did the Central Propaganda Department get these bans? On what basis? How much more scientific than Liu Xiude and San Xiangu's "conclusion"? Their "no" is groundless, absolutely taken for granted, absolutely ruled by man, absolutely runs counter to the basic principles of human civilization, and belongs to the same level as witches and gods violating basic scientific common sense.

The second major problem of the Central Propaganda Department is the Romanization of authority. Now the Central Propaganda Department is too right. It is just like the Roman Church in the Middle Ages in Europe. Like the kind of different snakes produced, it touches the vegetation, the vegetation is dead, and it bites people, but there is no cure. We cannot allow the Central Propaganda Department to be as correct as the Roman Church in the Middle Ages, we cannot allow the Central Propaganda Department to be as holy as the Cardinal Archbishop, and we cannot allow the Central Propaganda Department to be as powerful as the snake in Yongzhou. The news media supervises this and that, who dares to supervise the propaganda department? "The King of Hell told you to die at the third watch, who would dare to keep you at the fifth watch?" The propaganda department punished so many reporters and bosses, but no one dared to speak up. Is the propaganda department always correct? No matter how much the government departments act in accordance with the law, there is always a law, but the Central Propaganda Department has no rules at all in issuing orders. ! The Central Propaganda Department is currently the only blind spot in China where administration is not in accordance with the law, and the only kingdom of darkness where the sun of law cannot shine. The Central Propaganda Department is the last black box of the People's Republic, and we cannot promise its peaceful and powerful existence. The third major disease of the Central Propaganda Department was the provincialization of the Japanese Ministry of Education. The Japanese Ministry of Education has repeatedly revised school textbooks, tampered with the history of aggression against China, and changed "invasion" to "enter". The Propaganda Department of the Central Committee has gone beyond that. All crimes in history are not allowed to be mentioned. Anti-Rightist, Cultural Revolution, starvation of tens of millions of farmers, June 4th, the BMW case in Harbin, etc., are all taboo words. All this has made people in all media and academia intolerable and heartbroken by ordinary people.

The fourth major disease of the Central Propaganda Department is the Constitution killer. Freedom of speech and publication is a right guaranteed by the Constitution of the People's Republic of China. Logically speaking, since the Central Propaganda Department is the propaganda department of the People's Republic of China, it should be the defender of freedom of speech and publication, but in fact it is the freedom of speech of citizens guaranteed by the Constitution. The biggest infringer of rights, a spiritual butcher of the whole. It is unique in today's world that the constitution formulated by itself, the functional departments of the government do not try to protect it, but torture and trample it in every possible way. To defend the Constitution, one cannot but crusade the Central Propaganda Department.

The fifth major disease of the Central Propaganda Department is to betray the lofty ideals of the Chinese Communist Party and degenerate into a traitor to the Chinese Communist Party in action. The struggle against the Kuomintang's autocratic rule in the 1940s was the most dazzling period in the history of the Chinese Communist Party. Some people selected the editorials and general opinion articles of Chongqing "Xinhua Daily" and Yan'an "Liberation Daily" as "Historical Heralds" and published them, but they were banned by the Central Propaganda Department. These articles must be called democracy and freedom of speech. They were the greatest articles in China at that time and could best represent the direction of advanced culture. Now they have been banned by the Central Propaganda Department. ideal enemy. Every real communist member should shout at them, and never sit back and watch the Central Propaganda Department continue to mess up the party and harm the country at will.

The sixth major disease of the Central Propaganda Department is the legacy of the Cold War mentality. The Central Propaganda Department said that anyone involved in the United States must be hostile. "Whatever the enemy opposes, we shall support it; whatever the enemy supports, we shall oppose it." This is still the guideline of the Central Propaganda Department's external publicity and news reports concerning Europe and the United States. The editor-in-chief of a certain publishing house reported on the topic "Looking at How Americans Govern the Country". The editor-in-chief looked at the title and became anxious and asked, "What do you mean?" of. This is what the Central Propaganda Department's lectures always focus on. American political civilization is the direction of human civilization. When you frame it as stinky shit, you are actually smelling close to the real stinky shit or eating. Be open-minded, Central Propaganda Department! Restoring your normal sense of smell, calling shit as shit and pastry as pastry is your way out. Otherwise, it will inevitably be ruined, and you will put yourself on the pillar of shame in history. In fact, you've been infamous for too long, so hurry up.

The seventh major problem of the Central Propaganda Department is those who detract from and obstruct the spirit of the Central Committee, not those who implement it. People in the media, especially those media leaders who often come to the Central Propaganda Department to listen to the "gist" of the Central Propaganda Department, said: If you listen to the speeches of the Central Committee leaders, China is bright and promising, but when you go to the Central Propaganda Department to listen to the training, China is simply The dark clouds are rolling, the claws are stretching horizontally, and the whole feeling of the central spirit is the number one violator, the number one deductee, the number one opponent, the number one denialist, the number one obstructer, not Taiwan, not Hong Kong, not corrupt officials, not overseas pro-democracy activists, not U.S. imperialism is not Falun Gong or the families of the victims of June 4, but the Central Propaganda Department of the Chinese Communist Party. At this moment, you can't help but have the feeling of today and tomorrow, who is the Central Propaganda Department of the Central Propaganda Department, and who does it listen to? In today's domain, is it a world of light or a world of darkness. The author wrote this article at the time of the two sessions in 2004. This was supposed to be the period when the media was the most active and the political life of the Chinese people was the most free. However, you can see that the media was cleaned up by the Central Propaganda Department and everyone was "clean-minded and few desires", and everyone was vegetarian. The media were not allowed to speak freely about some of the major issues discussed at the meeting, such as constitutional amendment and demolition.

The eighth major disease caused by the Central Propaganda Department is the cold-blooded and mentally retarded disease. A few days ago, I was on the phone with a friend of a certain magazine, and inadvertently talked about a group of articles about petitions published in their latest magazine. It happened that I also read this article, and he said: "This group of articles has a lot of influence. Even the Central Propaganda Department called and said that this is the biggest report on petition issues so far." I immediately responded: "It's far from enough! There should be a special issue. What are you doing in this issue? It's just a brief petition tour. The suffering of the petitioners is seen as a landscape. It's too light. You should follow the supervision. We should follow the direction of helping the government to solve the problem of petitioning and petitioning thoroughly. We should be down-to-earth rather than just a glimmer of light, go back to the source, do our best to use the media, and resolutely dig out the cancer at all levels that led to the occurrence and existence of petitioning. Not long ago, I published an article on the Internet "To Wen A Letter from the Prime Minister", asking and advising their current government to devote one-third of its energy to solving the problem of the low happiness index of the people. Prosperity is important, but wealth is not happy, and the human environment is not suitable Human habitation is against the original intention of the government and is a flaw in the country. Petitioning is such a flaw, and it is the number one killer of people's happiness. I believe Premier Wen can read that letter. The existence of petitions is our unforgivable sin. It is a sin to allow it to exist for decades! My conscience is greatly damaged!"

Hearing my remarks, the friend went on to say: "The call from the Central Propaganda Department is not to encourage, but to blame. It is said that such a report will affect social stability." My heart suddenly became anonymous: "This kind of bastard! They are simply mentally retarded! What if all the petitioners are bombs? For the 1.3 billion Chinese people, after all, they are very few, so how could they affect social stability? Besides, 9 out of 10 petitioners are depraved people, and the real violence People who do not want to go to petition will not go to petition at all. Allowing petitions for a long time is the number one reason for affecting social stability, and such reproaches from the Propaganda Department are the root cause of unresolved petitions for a long time. If the media freely follow up, not like this Being blocked by the cold-blooded and ignorant propaganda departments of all walks of life, the phenomenon of petitioning disappeared 800 years ago!"

Even in words, I was more polite. On the phone, I yelled like a shrew and a shrew, without any grace or self-cultivation. I'm literally out of anger! How can reporting petitions affect social stability? Not reporting will accumulate factors that affect social stability. In the face of one tragic petition story, how indifferent you are to blame the media for reporting too much is too hard-hearted! Too stupid, too cold-blooded, too hateful! Such a mind, such a cold-blooded mind, and giving orders in such an important position, how could it not mislead the common people and China!

During the SARS period, at the seminar held by the Ministry of Health on how to disclose the truth of the SARS epidemic, some officials of the Ministry of Health were worried that revealing the truth would cause panic, and I was immediately furious: "Don't everyone here know the truth? Don't think that we are much smarter than the common people! Now we can inform the media, hold a press conference, and immediately disclose the truth of the epidemic to the Chinese people." The leaders of the Ministry of Health really "followed good deeds", and the next day Sure enough, the epidemic was disclosed, which is the "truth" that Minister Zhang Wenkang disclosed on TV on April 20 that it is safe to travel to China. What do I mean by this song? It is to show that some government officials are much more lazy, cold-blooded and ignorant than ordinary people. Their brains have no shadow of scientific and careful thinking at all, and they completely follow the feeling of ignorance, and follow the ignorance of taking things for granted to draw conclusions, make decisions, and give orders. It keeps saying that it is for social benefit and for national stability. In essence, it is "mistaken for the country and the people, and it is a sinner for the future!"

The ninth major disease of the Central Propaganda Department is sheltering villains and corrupt elements. Years ago, all the news media conveyed the twenty-five “no-nos” conveyed by the Central Propaganda Department blowing beard and staring, and one of the “no-nos” was that various news media were not allowed to report that the propaganda minister of the Yunnan Provincial Party Committee was “shuanggui”. information. Why not report it? It is said that this affects the image of the propaganda system. This reason is so evil! The Ministry of Propaganda is not exempt from supervision. It is not allowed to report that the propaganda minister of the Yunnan Provincial Party Committee has been "shuanggui". Whose interests do you represent? You represent the interests of the "shuanggui"! This "not allowed" made news reporters regret it, and corrupted elements secretly applauded it. This is not something that an organization that promotes the "Three Represents" can say. It is really a monk who is holding an umbrella and is lawless! I would like to ask all the people of justice: what is tolerable and what is not? The Propaganda Department of the Central Committee has blocked countless news reports, and every report is about ordinary people being bullied; to block one report is to condone the continued bullying of ordinary people and be an accomplice to the wicked.

The tenth major disease of the Central Propaganda Department is eating inside and out. The news media was controlled by the Central Propaganda Department as disgraced as the third grandson. You should protect it, but reporters have been beaten many times, and the Central Propaganda Department has never seen the Central Propaganda Department stand up for reporters and support them. There are many ways to fix reporters, but when the reporters need you to defend their grievances and seek justice, your turtle king will shrink your neck, let him go to life and death, and you won't let a fart!

The eleventh major disease caused by the Central Propaganda Department is that the spiritual nobles on the surface are actually money slaves. They arbitrarily call "stop" over the public opinion supervision of the news media, with the high-sounding reason that "stability overwhelms everything". In many cases, it is actually a transaction of power and money, rent-seeking of power, entrusted by the wicked, loyal to the wicked, taking the party and the The media management power entrusted by the state can reduce disasters and disasters for corrupt elements and seek private interests. According to practitioners of some large websites and famous newspapers, some people in the Central Propaganda Department often instruct the media to advertise some cultural products for free in the name of propaganda. The advertising fees that the media should be charged are waived, but the advertising fees for advertisers are not waived. Where did they go? Into the pockets of those who "stop". According to reliable sources, Ningbo Putuo District once paid 800,000 to ask the Central Propaganda Department to settle the CCTV focus interview. A person involved in a health incident in Tianjin also offered several hundred thousand yuan in bribes to the Central Propaganda Department, asking the Central Propaganda Department to block CCTV's reports. It seems that blocking a report is actually sheltering a group or a villain, perpetuating a disaster, and betraying the image of the party and the government in exchange for illegal benefits. Recently, the Central Propaganda Department ordered the BMW case to be blocked. Why? Why? Why? ! Did you accept black money from the victim? We can't help but question.

The twelfth major disease caused by the Central Propaganda Department is jealousy of virtuous people, whoever takes the lead will be blocked, and whoever has a prominent sense of justice will be "buried" alive. Now China can't have best-selling books, and the propaganda department of the Central Committee will run "fire out" whichever book sells well. The reason is high-sounding, and the heart is extremely dark. To block a creative and popular new book is to stifle the creativity of the Chinese nation; to block a journalist or scholar or newspaper with a sense of justice is to destroy the righteousness of Chinese society. In the current Chinese society, the reason why spiritual creativity withers, morality is lost, justice is lost, evil forces are rampant, and righteousness is as weak as a gossamer, the Central Propaganda Department should bear 99% of the blame. The Central Propaganda Department has corrupted China's political morality and social morality.

The thirteenth major disease caused by the Central Propaganda Department, the second-level producer of disasters for China's vulnerable groups. Migrant workers have been owed wages for many years, why did they not really solve it until the era of Premier Wen? The Propaganda Department has never allowed the media to report, and the issue of wage arrears cannot enter the eyes of the Chinese people. How can it be solved? Why do petitions continue for decades, and some grandparents have petitioned for several generations, and why? The propaganda department covers the countless evils. How many tragic things happened in family planning have been repeated repeatedly because they were not reported by the media. The wicked are not afraid of seeing officials, but they are afraid of newspapers. The news media could have done 10,000 good deeds and solved 10,000 disasters for the Chinese people, but because of the ignorant and backward way of thinking and domineering work of the propaganda department, there are 9,900 people. Ninety-nine cases were ordered to be banned, and the entire propaganda department system was the continuation and secondary manufacturer of the disaster for China's vulnerable groups.

The 14th disease caused by the Central Propaganda Department is the killer of media executives' sense of right and wrong, sense of justice, and sense of civilization. Every time they come back from listening to the Central Propaganda Department's lectures, the trained media leaders have suffered greatly, saying that sitting in the conference room of the Central Propaganda Department is like stepping back in time. It seems that they have good arms and legs, good arms and legs, and there is no damage at all. In fact, their hearts are greatly bruised. Their sense of right and wrong, sense of justice and civilization are completely damaged by the instructions of the Central Propaganda Department. The harm of the sense of right and wrong is the greatest harm in the world, and the ravage of the sense of justice is the most brutal ravage.

2. How to save the Central Propaganda Department? Up and down two strategies to save the Central Propaganda Department

The best policy is to abolish propaganda departments at all levels. Does the US have a propaganda department? Does the UK have it? Does it exist in Europe? nothing. Who has a propaganda department? Nazi Germany had a propaganda department, and a famous minister emerged, Dr. Goebbels, the inventor of the lie "a lie repeated a thousand times becomes the truth". When Chiang Kai-shek of the Kuomintang ruled the mainland, there was a propaganda department, and the central work at that time was to publicize the "Communist Communist Party Wife" and that Zhu Mao's team was "communist bandits". The Propaganda Department is essentially anti-Marxist materialism. Its core work is that good things are created out of nothing, and bad things are created out of nothing; good things are reduced to big ones, and bad things are reduced to small ones; The spirit goes against the grain. Little do they know that the work of the propaganda department itself is a crime, a disaster, and an act of the party and the government to cut themselves off from the people. If the Chinese government says that its image in the international community is not ideal, it should first pursue the responsibility of the Central Propaganda Department. The nature of its work and the way it works are at odds with modern civilization.

The last thing to do is to formulate a "Propaganda Department Work Law". It is allowed to operate according to the existing work mode, but it must set up supervision links to control the work of the propaganda department, and it can no longer be as correct as the Roman church. There are four specific methods: Method 1, set up a special academic research project, take stock of the merits and crimes of the Central Propaganda Department, and see what merits and crimes the Propaganda Department system has made in the past historical period, which crimes have been committed, and which propaganda ministers are Chinese The heroes of the nation, who are the sinners of the Chinese nation, the heroes are painted into Lingyan Pavilion, and the sinners are engraved on the pillar of shame. It can be wound up backwards, starting from the current Liu Yunshan, Ji Bingxuan, Ding Guangen, Wang Renzhi, Xu Weicheng, etc., and so on.

The second method is to establish a work log system for the propaganda department. The propaganda department must have a clear and comprehensive work log, which banning orders were issued today, and which yellow cards were raised tomorrow, and must be recorded in writing and clearly in the record for inquiry, for supervision, for future accountability, for future use. History of merit and conviction. The popular attempt to evade accountability and historical censorship is to issue a "ban" over the phone, and ghostly practices that leave no trace of text must be resolutely banned. A bad thing, the news media was about to expose the news, and the phone of the Propaganda Department was stabbed to death, shouting "Leave people under the knife, don't report it!" In addition, we must carefully examine whether there is any power and money transaction behind this? I want to ask why you volunteered to cover up bad things for bad people and eliminate disasters? Mr. Lu Xun said: "I am not afraid to speculate on the Chinese people with the worst malicious intent." We have reasons not to be afraid to speculate on the "stop" call of the Propaganda Department with the worst malicious intent. One 'stop' call, how much bribe from the bad guy? Confession is lenient, resistance is strict, give me the truth!

The third method is to establish a system for investigating and punishing work accidents in the propaganda department. The bean curd slag project has a accountability system. If there is a mistake in the work of the propaganda department, the harm will be greater than that of the bean curd slag project, so there should also be an accident investigation system. In a word, the ideological super bean curd project is more harmful and cannot be let go in vain. Many anti-this and anti-that activities launched by the Central Propaganda Department in those days are now seen as jokes and regarded as scandals.

The fourth method is to increase the transparency of the work of the Central Propaganda Department, and the media will publish various "not allowed" orders issued by the Central Propaganda Department in newspapers and periodicals at any time, or publish them online. The Propaganda Department of the Central Committee also has a legal obligation to do this, and let the people of the whole country evaluate which of these prohibitions issued by the Propaganda Department are correct, meritorious, and sinful, anti-civilization, and destructive. After listening to the instructions from the Central Propaganda Department, all media bosses should consciously publish them on the Internet whenever they feel that there is an order that violates the basic common sense of civilized society. Ugly words and deeds fear transparency the most. The domineering and "often rational" behavior of the Central Propaganda Department is also accustomed to "secrecy" after listening to inappropriate, incorrect, and even reactionary lectures by media executives. According to some bosses, the Central Propaganda Department's lectures are not rational at all, do not follow common sense, and do not talk about media responsibilities. Sometimes they even resemble the tone of a rogue and a hob. and manage people's desires. The Chinese news media system is so huge, but it has contributed too little to the progress of Chinese society and the well-being of the Chinese people. It's really distressing! It's really outrageous!

3. The Central Propaganda Department relies on Wang Ming, Kang Sheng, and Zhang Chunqiao's ultra-leftist history to be so fierce and stubborn, his ultra-left roots have never been liquidated

In recent years, the news circle has often used this sentence: "Due to a well-known reason, a certain report died prematurely." What is a "well-known reason"? In fact, the Propaganda Department intervened. The failure to report due to "well-known reasons" actually means that although it is admittedly absurd, ignorant or even reactionary, one cannot but listen to it. This means that the propaganda department has the privilege of confounding black and white, raping the general will, calling the deer a horse, playing cards against common sense, and trampling on the common sense of civilization. The well-known absurdity, but the power is so great, so "sacred and inviolable", so "inviolable", hundreds of thousands of journalists, millions of humanistic intellectuals, no one resists even half a sentence, it is really China Shame on moral character! Everyone in the news circles said: The authority of the Central Propaganda Department is only separated by a layer of window paper, but everyone is reluctant to pierce it. Why don't you want to poke? Is not dare to poke. Why don't you dare to poke? Because it is too fierce and stubborn, it is unreasonable, let alone the Fa, and good people dare not compare themselves with domineering villains. He has harmed you, and you don't even have a place to reason. The court is afraid of it and dare not accept your complaint. This reality has encouraged the propaganda department to act involuntarily, causing it to recklessly sacrifice all kinds of sorcery and magic weapons that run counter to human civilization. The entire propaganda department system is a dark cloud over the head of Chinese journalism and a nightmare for journalists. It despises all the right and wrong of a civilized society and risks everything in the world. It is the biggest scavenger of the public opinion base of the party and the government, the biggest loser of the legitimacy of the party and the government, and the secondary producer of disasters for China's vulnerable groups.

Why is the Central Propaganda Department so stubborn? First, this is the historical legacy left to it by the history of the extreme left. From the era of Wang Ming, Kang Sheng, Yao Wenyuan, and Zhang Chunqiao to the present, the Central Propaganda Department has always enjoyed moral and political immunity. Wherever it does it, it is on the right side. Even if the propaganda is proved wrong and the agitation is crooked, the "Chengtou Dawangqi" can change, but the status of the Central Propaganda Department remains unchanged. Three without accountability. During the "anti-Rightist" period, the "Cultural Revolution", and the anti-this and anti-that period that the Central Propaganda Department engaged in later, the Central Propaganda Department that grasped ideology was as red as a branding iron, poisonous like a snake, and no one "counterattacked it" afterwards "Accounting for his fault. The political line has changed, the personnel affairs have changed, but the red and poison of the Central Propaganda Department as an institution has not changed. The Central Propaganda Department has never been liquidated, its role has not changed, its way of thinking and work has never been touched, and its ultra-leftist and rebellious nature has never changed. We must liquidate all the sins and mistakes of the Central Propaganda Department in the past historical period like Wang Ming, Kang Sheng, Yao Wenyuan, and Zhang Chunqiao! Second, this is a manifestation of inheriting the previous ideological mantle and clinging to the international Cold War mentality that is contrary to the times. The Chinese media said that the United States has been holding on to the Cold War mentality, and the Propaganda Department of the Central Committee is the real woman of the Cold War mentality. Third, the 9.6 million square kilometers of land is regarded as the ban of a small group of people, and all kinds of vocal organs that are not pleasing to the ear are not qualified for vocalization. It should be noted that China is the China of every Chinese, and it is the place where all the descendants of Yan and Huang have a place of refuge and shelter. Any alien, whether you are a pro-democracy activist or a 64th grader, is the legitimate heir of this land. Everyone has the equal right to live freely, express freely and speak freely on this old motherland that our ancestors jointly developed. Even if I don't love you, the People's Republic of China, I have the right to live in this hot land without fleeing or going to prison, because this is also my ancestral property. Your great-grandfather, the head of the Central Propaganda Department, worked on this land. His great-grandfather, who was a political exile and a dissident, also worked on this land. Grandfathers and grandsons are equal and should sit on the same page. A round table discussing state affairs. But the Central Propaganda Department doesn't allow you to look at it this way, say it this way, and negotiate it this way.

4. Fourteen reasons why I dare to shout "crusade against the Central Propaganda Department"

The first reason, Chairman Mao taught me the heroic spirit of fearlessness. "All reactionaries are paper tigers. It seems that the reactionaries are terrible, but in fact they have no great power. From a long-term point of view, the really powerful forces do not belong to the reactionaries, but to the people." News circle The Central Propaganda Department has long been called a "reactionary" in China today on private and free occasions. Although the word "reactionary" has a pan-political tendency and has "historical issues", I don't want to use it, but it is really difficult to express the various actions of the Central Propaganda Department except for this word. The reaction of the Central Propaganda Department is already a "well-known" fact.

The second reason, this is my constitutional right. There should be no tiger's butt in a republic, no relic free from questioning, and no saint like a medieval cardinal in Europe.

The third reason is that I am smarter and more civilized than the Central Propaganda Department. From top to bottom, the work of the propaganda department system at all levels, in my eyes, is like a foolish person clamoring for a deep lake with thin ice, and it is like a street thug who runs rampant, but no one stops him. I couldn't stop yelling to stop it. Their behavior is irrational and not beneficial to anyone. They consider themselves "responsible for defending the soil" and are loyal and "housekeeping" for the party and the government. In my opinion, they are injustice to the party and the government. Every "no" they promulgated could not stand up to scrutiny. Reports that petitioning will "affect stability" is the most typical example. Will it actually affect? To what extent will it be affected? How will it affect? Did they investigate? Did they study it? How did they come to this conclusion? There is no shadow of science, it is all ignorance! Totally lazy! All cold blooded!

The fourth reason, their trampling on the common sense of human civilization makes me intolerable. They do not allow the media to use the word "citizen", but "the common people", and the words "democracy" and "freedom" are not allowed to be used in the media at will. It can be used in the constitution, the report of the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, but ordinary people cannot use it casually. It is to use "democracy" and "freedom" as decorations. What kind of problem is this? This is the enemy of humanity, the enemy of civilization, the enemy of democracy, the enemy of freedom! This is the "enemy contradiction"! This is a trampling on the minimum professional philosophy of the 600,000 Chinese journalists, and a contempt and bruising on the minimum humanistic sentiments of the millions of humanistic intellectuals. This kind of opposition to the basic news civilization and political civilization fully shows that they are not the ideological guardians of the party and the government, nor the implementers of the "Three Represents" thought, but the representatives of ignorant and backward culture, representing the decay and decline of mankind. The culture is degenerate and sinks in the direction of the reverse.

The fifth reason is that I have the virtue of good life. I can't bear to watch the Central Propaganda Department destroy itself like this, and I can't bear to let you continue to destroy China's remaining spirit. I have to slap you on the head like a Buddhist master: "Don't be rude! Don't go that way!"

The sixth reason is that other ministries and ministers can be targeted by the media, and the work of the President and the Premier of the State Council can be “criticized”. Why can’t the Central Propaganda Department be “speaking irresponsibly”? The Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Public Security, Ministry of Railways, Ministry of Labor and Social Security, etc., as well as their ministers, have all been questioned and questioned by the media. The Ministry of Railways, in particular, is besieged by the Chinese like a wolf every year, saying that the price increase during the Spring Festival is shameful, and it is a "great reunion for the Chinese nation." Every time the Central Propaganda Department issues a "no order", the press will go through a nationwide psychological torture, and they will become discouraged, scolded, and reluctant to do news. Is it appropriate? Why do you 'not allow'?" It is so unpopular, so forbidden, and powerful, why? Why is the propaganda department the cat and the news media the mouse? Who gave the Central Propaganda Department such immunity from being supervised and criticized?

The seventh reason is that Ji Bingxuan, the deputy director of the Central Propaganda Department, is from Henan. At the end of 2003, he posted 25 inaccuracies in one breath. When meeting friends in the news circle, he always half-true and half-hypothetical, "Henan people are nothing!" A high-ranking journalist friend said: "In the spring, when they (the leaders of the Central Propaganda Department) first came to power, and they were catching up with SARS, they were polite to the media bosses at the press briefing. Very, very fierce, you are not polite at all! There is nothing in sight, and it seems that the three grandsons who listen to the spirit seem to be the third grandchildren." Henan people's grasp of ideology makes people feel uneasy. Henan has always suffered the most disaster in China. The root cause of the disaster in Henan is the ideological allergy of Henan officials. In 1942, one million people died of starvation in Henan. Twenty years later, in 1962, more people died of starvation in Henan. The root cause was the obsession of local administrators. Most of the officials in Henan are "loyal and upward." The above doesn't necessarily mean that, following here and there is actually following the devil. There are things above, and he won't notice that you seem to follow the above, but in fact you have followed the devil. So you follow it farther and farther, and finally turn yourself into a civilized sinner and a spiritual killer. I don't believe that the twenty-five "not allowed" issued by the Central Propaganda Department were designated by Chairman Hu. I believe they were all selected by the Central Propaganda Department on their own. "Don't use suspicious people, don't use people with suspicion", "Let go of comrades and let comrades exert their subjective initiative", so the Central Propaganda Department put the trust of leaders to the extent that the country and the people are harmful to the country and the people are not beneficial. "Fire, theft, and Henan people", which is distressing. We cannot allow Henanization of the public opinion environment throughout China.

The eighth reason is my self-consciousness of style. Liang Qichao developed the current affairs style to the extreme, Hu Shi promoted the vernacular to the extreme, Xu Zhimo developed the new poems to the extreme, Lu Xun developed the essays to the extreme, Li Ao, Bo Yang, Wang Shuo, Confucius, Mencius, Cao Xueqin, Tang and Song Dynasties each achieved their best. pole. Each of their extremes has made an indelible contribution to the Chinese language and the Han nation. I also hope that the extreme development of this unpretentious style of writing will contribute to the development of the Chinese language and the Han nation. A scholar who serves the country has nothing to do with it, only the pen in his hand is like a knife.

The ninth reason is the encouragement of seniors. Three hundred and sixty years ago, Milton wrote "On Freedom of the Press", one hundred and fifty years ago, Marx wrote "On the Censorship of Prussian Books and Newspapers." ", Nietzsche said, "God is dead!" Zhang Taiyan denounced Emperor Guangxu as a "Zaitian clown", Liang Qichao scoffed at Yuan Shikai for "a different so-called state system problem", and the May Fourth pioneer shouted "Go to Kong's shop!" Zhang Jiluan said, "Chiang Jieshi. Guo Moruo asked people to "Try to see Chiang Kai-shek today", Fu Sinian wrote an article "Song Ziwen who looks like this has to leave", and said "the emperor's relatives and relatives", the former sages meet each other, and the history is endless, I said, "I look like this Ji Bingxuan has to go", or shouting "crusade against the Central Propaganda Department", compared to these predecessors, what's the big deal? Really a piece of cake. Furthermore, foreign countries in the news media shout all day long that the president is incompetent and wants to step down, the minister has done bad things, get out, I don’t believe that the Chinese people shouting “crusade against the Central Propaganda Department” is a treason and deserves the death penalty. A soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, and an intellectual who does not want to be Milton is not a good intellectual. I want to be a good intellectual. I want to be a Milton of China. " became a historical document that shines in the annals of history, like "On Freedom of the Press" and like "On the Prussian Censorship."

The tenth reason is the desire to benefit the younger generation. Save the Central Propaganda Department and open up a source of happiness and freedom for the younger generation. "Citizens" and "democracy" have become taboos. Is this disaster too serious? When is the end? The scales and feathers are known to be descendants, not to mention my human beings with round skulls and square toes? Thousands of people make promises, it is not as good as a single scholar; King Wen is prosperous, and King Zhou silently perishes.

The eleventh reason is that people don't kiss each other. You are focusing on journalism, I am researching journalism, and the method of grasping journalism is also the object of journalism research. We are a family, and we are jointly responsible for the rise and fall of the same "owner", that is, the Chinese nation. We should converge towards our common axis: the state of parents! The Yanhuang clan!

The twelfth reason, the basis of ecology. The mantis catches the cicada, the oriole is behind, and the goshawk is behind. Power produces corruption, and absolute power produces absolute corruption. Why does the Central Propaganda Department have such absolute power without supervision? Who can guarantee that it is not corrupt? Does it not profit from rights? The back of the Central Propaganda Department should also be "oriole". No one dared to ask him whether he received bribes from others behind the phone call of "No reporting!" This is something that ecological common sense cannot allow. Dinosaurs have no natural enemies, and they will eventually perish. Everyone should "supervise each other and don't violate it".

The thirteenth reason, the big deal is death, I just don't want to live anymore. Every time I hear that the Central Propaganda Department has issued a new "no", I can't wait to suffocate myself to death. Or it is very close to the Yuanmingyuan and the Summer Palace. There are barren forests everywhere, and there are more than 10 million branches that are enough to hang people. Find a secluded place and "hang the southeast branch by yourself" forget it, and don't look at this world. What a bastard "no"! There is really no way to wake up the Central Propaganda Department! Human beings are inherently dead, or heavier than Mount Tai, or lighter than a feather. When he was a graduate student, a senior brother often said: "Sima Qian's writing "Records of the Grand Historian" broke three bricks." I thought through the constitution, criminal law, and various laws of the People's Republic of China, that the crusade against the Central Propaganda Department should not be punishable by death. Since it is a "living sin", there is nothing to be afraid of. Isn't it just a prison sentence? Maybe even get a "Qincheng treatment". Squatting in Qincheng is a physical deposit in the bank, with interest and no depreciation. Now, among all the old people who can be named, how many have never squatted in Qincheng? Gandhi Prison is a free hotel in the British Empire. Prisons in China are as civilized as those in the British Empire, and they are all free (there was a time when a "counter-revolutionary" was shot, and the family members of the "counter-revolutionary" had to pay fifty cents for bullets, otherwise they would not be allowed to corpse). Isn't it just a matter of sex life? It's okay to practice "Leaving Home in Prison". Isn't it just bad to eat? Can it be worse than high school and college? I was hungry in high school and college, no big deal. Those who have suffered have a burden. Watching Phoenix Satellite TV a few days ago, Xu Gehui interviewed Ding Ling's wife, Mr. Chen Ming, and said that Qincheng's food is not bad. When is that? Justifiable material scarcity. Now, the people of the whole country are not starving, how can they still lose to the people of Qincheng? Wouldn't it be possible to get a little beating? I easily go into shock when stimulated, like the suspended animation of some insects. After one hit, he faked death, forgive him that he wouldn't dare to hit him a second time. Having said that, it's okay to be killed. Didn't Sun Zhigang just get killed? How can you be holy without dying? The Chinese have a problem, that is, they want to be sages regardless of their wives and children. This is more desirable for Westerners. If you want to be a saint, you can't have a family. Those Jesuit priests who came to China to preach were like this, "no marriage, no officialdom." If I were to "convince" myself, I should neither be punished with death nor "living a crime". The crusade against the Propaganda Department of the Central Committee and the promotion of contemporary Chinese social civilization would be greatly credited. A great hero is the same as the predecessors mentioned above. , enough to go down in history.

The fourteenth reason, I am more sensitive to suffering and less numb to injustice. I really hate the petition and the unpaid wages of migrant workers. Whoever says it affects stability and cannot be reported. On New Year's Day, President Hu made a brief "New Year's Message" to the world, calling for and wishing for world peace. I was very angry to hear that. Calling and wishing for world peace, and calling on all the migrant workers in arrears to be repaid! It is enough to wish all the petitioners in China's grievances will be healed! That's a lot of merit! On New Year's Day, I had a dream. When I went to the Summer Palace to play, no one was seen, and I was the only tourist in a large garden. I walked in confusion and meaning, and just came to the Seventeen-hole Bridge. Looking down, there is a pair of shoes at the top of the bridge arch, with the toes facing the stone railing on the north side, and they are placed very neatly. The person drowned and died, leaving a pair of shoes for attention. This is my first impression of seeing this pair of shoes. Then a feeling is to discover that these shoes are actually my own! I have already cast Kunming Lake to death. I do not believe that I am dead, I am looking for evidence that I am not dead. At the end I found a letter in the shoe, addressed to President Hu Jintao and Premier Wen Jiabao. The gist of the letter is, why don't you make a death order to resolve the wage arrears of migrant workers? Why don't you guys break your wrists and work hard to solve the petition problem? I'm going to die for you today! Next year, there will be no more unpaid wages, and there will be petitions, and I will never forgive you in the underworld! Look, I have already "deathly admonished" in my dream to protest the government's insensitivity to petitioners and unpaid wages!

5. Expose the ignorance, cold-blooded, and bribery "stability view" of the Central Propaganda Department, and establish a scientific view of stability

The central government requires leaders at all levels to establish a scientific outlook on development. The Central Propaganda Department often blocks the news media on the grounds that it "affects stability." We must re-examine this reason and cultivate a scientific outlook on development. As far as I think, there are three states of stability, one is normal stability, the other is unstable state, and the other is ultra-stable state. A hyperstable state is a dead state, a fossil state. The stability that the Central Propaganda Department is currently working on is a super-stable state, and the Chinese news media have been rendered fossil-like stable by it.

There are also three reasons for blocking news reports on the grounds of "impacting stability": one is the cold-blooded ignorance of the Central Propaganda Department. For example, reporting on petitions and arrears of wages will affect stability, and the barbaric practice of reporting on family planning will affect the country's image. Caused by cold blood. Nowadays, the reports about salary arrears are so vigorous, not only does not affect stability, but the country is much more stable and the government is more friendly because of this, which fully proves how ignorant and ignorant the behavior of the Propaganda Department of the Central Propaganda Department in the past to stifle news supervision on the grounds of "affecting stability". Big mistake. It has greatly delayed the progress of civilization in Chinese society, and it has smeared too much blackness for the Chinese ruling party and government in the forest of countries in the world.

Another root cause is the power rent-seeking of the Central Propaganda Department, which took money from other people, and ordered focus interviews or other media not to report in the name of "affecting stability". According to reliable sources, there is no media that the Propaganda Department of the CPC Central Committee can deal with or block, with the exception of Xinhua News Agency's internal staff. Therefore, the wicked who sent money to the Central Propaganda Department to avoid disasters know that if they are targeted by Xinhua News Agency's internal staff, they will not be able to make a confession to the Central Propaganda Department.

The Central Propaganda Department accused it of "affecting stability" and thus banned it. We have to ask sharply: "Whose stability was affected?" Did it affect the stability of the country? Not too! Affect the stability of corrupt elements! Affected the stability of the perpetrators of the BMW case! It has affected the stability of the Minister of the Propaganda Department of the Yunnan Provincial Party Committee! In response to the Central Propaganda Department's claim that "stability overwhelms everything," we can't help but ask: "Whose stability is the overriding one?" From the reports that the CPC Central Propaganda Department called "stop", we can see that it is the stability of corrupt elements that overwhelms everything! It is the stability of the evil forces that prevails! It is the stability that oppresses the good and the weak that overwhelms everything! It is the stability of those who have money to make offerings to the Central Propaganda Department that overwhelms everything! It is the stability of the foreman who deducts the wages of migrant workers is the overriding factor! It is the stability of the people who persecute the suffering people who have traveled thousands of miles to petition the road that overwhelms everything!

The third root cause is that it may indeed affect stability, so I called "stop". In this regard, we have to ask: which kind of stability is affected? Is it normal stability, or super stable? If it affects the normal stability, it is time to shout "stop". If it affects super stability, it should affect the impact, and if it doesn't affect the impact, it will be dead. What is normal stability, what is super-stable, and what is unstable must have a scientific indicator, and it must not be allowed to follow the feelings of cold-blooded, ignorant, and bribery people like in the past! The management of the Chinese cultural undertakings by the Central Propaganda Department is far behind that of the press and publishing undertakings managed by the British Empire three hundred years ago. We cannot remain indifferent to this.

Already in the digital age, the decision-making of the Central Propaganda Department must also be digitalized. It is already an era of transparency, and the decision-making of the Central Propaganda Department must also be transparent. Search all over the streets of Beijing, you can't see the signboard of the "Central Propaganda Department"; dial the number 114 in Beijing, you can't find the phone number of the Central Propaganda Department; search for "Central Propaganda Department" online, and you get nothing. What kind of "organ" that is blinded to the times, remains unchanged and responds to all changes, and that exists in rebellion against the times! Is the Central Propaganda Department an underground party or an underworld organization? Why does it dare to ignore the public's right to know the Central Propaganda Department? The Central Propaganda Department has long ceased to be the ideological gatekeeper of the party and the government, but has transformed into a dangerous "organization" with independent economic interests. It has the unequivocal "stop" privilege to the country's huge journalism industry, and it enjoys the monopoly of appraisal of "if you affect stability, you will affect stability" and the illegal interests that no one knows how much oil and water it brings. . It is already the era of hearings, and every time the Central Propaganda Department issues an order, it must be based on a strict scientific and rational basis. Conservative, known for its extreme leftism, and a remnant of the Cold War mentality, no one can tell how much black money it has accepted, and no one can tell how many weak people and victims it has forced to silence the Central Propaganda Department in the media, It's time to clear up! The horror era of whoever is left and who is the propaganda minister should end!


He Jiadong: Ding Jiaban's Central Propaganda Department - A Letter to Professor Jiao Guobiao

Comrade GB:

An enthusiastic person sent me the download of your online article "Crackdown on the Central Propaganda Department". After reading it, I was not only shocked, but also deeply touched. Unexpectedly, in a modern China that advocates civilization and pays attention to the legal system every day, the Propaganda Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China can be so authoritarian and cover the sky. During the Cultural Revolution, the great leader Mao Zedong issued a call to "destroy the king of hell and liberate the little devil", which once smashed the Central Propaganda Department. But looking at the actions of the former Central Propaganda Department, compared to the current post-Central Propaganda Department, it is really nothing. Back then, Lu Dingyi and Zhou Yang did not have the right to live or die. All the purges against the literary and artistic circles, as well as the ideological and theoretical circles, were all led and initiated by great leaders, including the much-talked-about relationship between Zhou Yang and Ding Ling. Personal grievances, if there is no "highest order", Zhou Yang will not succeed. Therefore, to say they are "little devils" is acceptable, but to say they are "king of hell" will inflate their worth, because they do not have the book of life and death of intellectuals, and even their own book of life and death is in the hands of others Yes, at most, it is to use the "big climate" to play a little devil on a certain issue and vent some personal anger.

After this, the suppression of public opinion and the lawlessness of the Central Propaganda Department should probably be counted from the source of Ding Guangen and Xu Weicheng. It was they who brought the press and publishing industry to the brink of death. They were in a dilemma, and they no longer dared to talk about democracy and freedom. Its scale is no less than that of the past literary disasters; its time is long, from the proud time to the present. The Propaganda Department of the Central Committee that you attacked, from today's point of view, is still the same Ding family, but with a new boss. Ding Guangen and Xu Weicheng are both from Shanghai. One is a leftover from the Republic of China and the other is a leftover from the Cultural Revolution. They can be described as golden partners, suitable for all ages. We have an official as big as Ji Bingxuan from Henan. Although we can issue twenty-five bans in one breath, at best he is just a little guy from the Ding family. It is not original to walk in other people's footsteps. For the "fire prevention, theft prevention and Ding family class", it can be regarded as seeking truth from facts.

There is a difference between the two Central Propaganda Departments. The difference is that the former are revolutionaries and intellectuals; the latter are bureaucratic politicians and a bunch of gangsters. Those who were in charge of the former Central Propaganda Department were all ideological authorities, open-minded and closed-mouth. When encountering problems, they had to think about why and how, looking ahead and thinking about the impact and consequences. They were all literati. If things hurt others, some discounts are inevitable in execution. Perhaps this is what the great leader is most dissatisfied with. The bureaucrats in the Ding family do not have these rules and regulations. They have never read a few books or written a few words. "Ling Laixing" is ignorant and fearless, daring, dazed, and savage, and no matter what kind of doctrine, as long as it doesn't look pleasing to the eye or listens to it, he will take the initiative to attack. The more things you need to do, the more you want to do, "send it when you say it." The ancients said that "the thief also has the way", but they have no taboos, and they arbitrarily come here, and they also call it "rule the country according to the law". Marx said that if there is no publishing law, there will be no violation of the publishing law. Maybe they also made some internal regulations, but they are not legal, although they all have the form of law, but can never become law. So their actual role is to act as a secret police officer.

Now, people are opposed to the "Great Criticism" during the Cultural Revolution, which is quite unreasonable, but it still has the courage to openly speak its fallacies, whether it is "Comment on "Wu Xun Biography", "Comment on "Research on A Dream of Red Mansions" or "Comment on "Sea Rui Dismissed from Office" and "Comment on "The Secret History of the Qing Palace", whether it is Yao Wenyuan, Qi Benyu, Liang Xiao or Hong Guangsi, they will always list a few crimes for you and make them public, and it is not difficult for people with brains to make their own decisions. judge. Ding Jiaban is good, like a group of masked people, secretly attacking. Said he was a terrorist, and no one came forward to declare "responsible for this", explaining to the public the reasons for the ban. Lu Xun said that the "successful emperor" did not kill secretly, because he was confident and powerful. He only kept one thing secret: teasing with his wives and concubines, he would fail when he got it, and he added another secret: his The amount of property and the place where it is placed; further down, it is the "secret death" that Dante's "Divine Comedy" never imagined in the hell chapter, so miserable that no one can see it. But now is China's "peaceful rise" and China's "best time for human rights in history", how can the dregs in the palace of the "failed emperor" be regarded as an elixir? Anything that involves blocking public opinion is secretly Come!

It is said that the Central Propaganda Department did not set up a bureau for censorship of books and newspapers, but Ding Guangen brought over the KMT's undercover system. Guards like thieves. These people are already old, and some have an unbalanced mentality. They always feel that the present is not as good as the past, and the generation is not as good as the next generation. So, they are either trying to pick the bone out of the egg or fish from Mars to prove their political proficiency. People who are truly self-respecting and self-love are disdainful of this kind of business. If he had real talent, he would have been a columnist long ago and let others "follow" him. Some people joked and wrote Ding Guangen as "watching and closing", that is, "watching closely, tracking in real time, and telling you to close the door". Such a strange status quo, it can be said that its composition and operation are illegal. Whether the old Bolsheviks should continue to exert their power, or should the Central Propaganda Department clean up the door itself, it is best to hold a referendum in the press and publishing industry.

On some issues, our views may be different, but not fundamentally. For example, I think the Chinese neo-conservatives have almost the same mindset as the American neo-conservatives. They are both true rightists, and the Central Propaganda Department has Like the Pentagon in the United States, it is self-reliant and always searches for targets everywhere. However, the conservative forces in the United States are expanding outward, while the Central Propaganda Department is expanding inward. What they do is unify their thinking, which is what Marx said, "turning all the existing nonsense into some other nonsense." Four One class alliance has become three elite alliances, and the national system has been changed. I wonder if the national flag will be changed? The Pentagon is external expansion, unilateralism, and arrogance. At the beginning of the war on terror, Bush described it as a new crusade, and although he changed his words, perhaps that was exactly what he meant. Wang Sirui and I have argued strongly that this is not a clash of civilizations. The U.S. military is now facing the combined resistance of Sunnis and Shiite Muslims. If the Pentagon does not use force well, a war on terrorism may indeed develop into a religious war. China’s neo-conservatives also hope to turn Iraq into the United States. "The Second Vietnam". Think about it, isn't the foreign policy of the American neo-conservatives exactly the policy that the Chinese neo-conservatives are pursuing at home? They are all backed by strength, trying to impose their will on others. They don't understand a simple truth: No matter how strong you are, you cannot be strong enough to be the master forever. This kind of behavior all stems from the same mindset: seeing that contradictions are universal, but trying to eliminate them once and for all. Mao Zedong tossed it all his life, eliminating one contradiction and creating another contradiction. It was not until he died in depression that he admitted that he had only done two things in his life, or left a world full of contradictions.

His successors may only be Hu Yaobang and Zhao Ziyang who realize that contradictions cannot be eliminated, and it would be great if they could grasp the direction of development of contradictions. When they are beaten down, the conflict will intensify and become life-and-death. Both the Central Propaganda Department and the Pentagon are masters at intensifying conflicts. If there are no conflicts, they must create conflicts (Mao Zedong called them "establishing opposites"), until there are enemies everywhere. In fact, what you regard as a friend is not necessarily a natural friend. That is the result of your representation of his interests and demands. Without common interests, there is no common purpose, and without bilateralism, there is no friend. If you believe in unilateralism, whoever looks like an enemy will definitely be your enemy. As long as you can defeat it, you don't need to be soft-hearted. What does it mean to be a leader? It is to take care of the interests of the leader. If you do not represent or protect its interests, you will not be able to lead it. The acquisition of leadership is based on the sharing of interests. Contradiction is eternal, but it can be controlled. According to common interests, it can be developed, suspended, moderated, or intensified. The solution of contradictions is to eradicate the conditions that produce contradictions. Where there are unjust conditions, there is little hope of using unjust means to achieve just goals. Eliminating one kind of injustice will immediately produce another kind of injustice. The more you try to solve the problem completely, the more conflicts will be aroused. Just like the Cultural Revolution, even the old man himself can't stop it. It is especially difficult to teach Chinese neoconservatives to understand these common senses, because deep down in their minds, like the American neoconservatives, they also pursue unilateralism and believe that power means everything. When they have the power, they will kill and kill, dominate everything, let you go on anything, and let you close the door, they can't tolerate the slightest compromise.

Your fourteen reasons for the "crusade" are also fourteen suggestions, which are well-founded and well-founded, but I think that just looking at the negative aspects, some jumping clowns are overestimated. This is not just a matter of personal quality, but also a institutional issues. Your proposal to disband the Central Propaganda Department does not seem to be a matter of temper. But the Communist Party started out through propaganda, and Chairman Mao Zedong paid special attention to propaganda work. "Anyone who overthrows a political power must first create public opinion and do ideological work. This is true of the revolutionary class, and the same is true of the counter-revolutionary class." It can be seen that it is the "psychic jade" around Jia Baoyu's neck, and it is impossible to or missing. Therefore, I made a slight change and suggested that the Propaganda Department be abolished and the Propaganda Committee be re-established. But instead of using this name, you can also take a long-term view. Because propaganda means advertising, and the Communist Party’s political practice of distrusting its words, saying one thing and doing another, makes people think that propaganda is lying and talking nonsense. In the past, the common people called propaganda “sellers of plaster”. After the Leap Forward, the propaganda cadres were called "cadres of wind, horses and cattle", and they only bragged about the wind and the horse. Just under the Propaganda Department of the Central Committee, there are Fengma Niu News and Fengma Niu TV stations to meet the "first needs" of bureaucrats and politicians. It would be better to change the name to the "Ideological Mobilization Committee". In addition, the Organization Department also decided to cancel it and set up an "Organization Committee". The members are all elected by the National Congress, and form a perfect match with the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. General Secretary Hu Jintao advocates democracy within the party, and the reform of the propaganda and organization departments is its supporting project. Both prevent personal arbitrariness and prevent officials from taking power. Now it is only mentioned that "consistent with the central government" is actually consistent with the "core". Who is the "core" aligned with? Just keep up with the whole party! Otherwise, it is a private exchange, a lonely person, and no one will be consistent with him.

Although the establishment of three committees cannot fully guarantee the expression of the will of the whole party (because elections can also be manipulated, such as "delineation"), it at least lays a foundation for inner-party democracy, so that the propaganda and organizational departments will not become headhunting companies and organizations. detective agency. In the transitional stage, the "announcement system" should be implemented. Now fires, mining accidents, car accidents, and epidemics have all issued announcements, and those who conceal and fail to report will be subject to disciplinary action or sentenced. As before, the "propaganda" that carried out the terrorist assassination policy on books, newspapers and magazines operated secretly, not only the people's right to know was deprived, but the Central Propaganda Department became the only privileged class that was not subject to social supervision, and became a tiger that no one could touch. butt. In the past, I didn't dare to touch it, because I saw the banned card "No Argument", which made people horrified. Later, I found out that the so-called non-argument is just one word, only the state officials are allowed to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light the lamps. Mr. Deng is a pragmatist and has little interest in abstract thinking. Anything that is useful and practicable is a good thing. Therefore, in terms of theoretical issues, such as the surname of the company and the surname of the capital, he can only be exempted from the battle card, as long as there is an argument, he is sure to lose. But after all, he is still open to the public, and he does not prohibit certain people from speaking. The publication of "Midstream", "Contemporary Trend of Thought", and "The Pursuit of Truth" is still allowed. Younger children have no political experience of their predecessors, and hearing a little different voice is like a snarl and heresy; This shows that there are very few people in the world who are not afraid of public opinion condemnation, and tigers are also afraid of attacking them. Besides, there is a constitution to protect us. Even a great leader who regards the constitution and the party constitution as waste paper, when he is in a state of anger when his speech is interrupted, he must turn to the constitution for help, and hold the constitution and the party constitution to inquire. And a little guy from Ding's family, who doesn't know what virtues and abilities, dare to go above the constitution, look down on everything, and ban them arbitrarily. Is it acceptable or unbearable? The central government has repeatedly stated that it "respects the constitution", and his actions tend to trample on the constitution. Who is it that he is in line with? The Constitution is not respected simply because no one stands up to defend it! Today's crusade against Ding Jiaban is actually a battle to protect the law. Although it has the meaning of "settling accounts after the autumn", it has the meaning of "taking an example to others". Because Ding Guangen has retired, but his legacy still remains, and it is getting worse and worse! And let them know, "Good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be rewarded with evil. It's not that there is no reward, the time has not yet come." The eyes of the people are on you! If you do a good thing, I will give you a red dot. If you do a bad thing, I will give you a black dot. After the fall, you will wait. The more red dots will give you glory, and the more black dots will make you notorious. , as the great leader said, into a pile of shit that despises human beings.

A publishing house was banned from dozens of books at a time just because the subject matter was not to your taste, and a newspaper was shut down just for publishing a low-profile web article. A slave, and submissive, can only adopt non-resistance. This is the servility developed by the "big pot rice" in the era of planned economy. All these punishments are based on the will of the superiors, blindly commanded, and do not go through judicial procedures. While trying to push publications into the market as if they were throwing a burden off, they were also tying them with ropes to restrain the evil, and they only changed others but not themselves. It is a matter of nature to shovel out young crops and ask farmers to plant other crops. Sooner or later, some news and publishing industries will close down. At that time, petitioners will go to the Central Propaganda Department to stop cars and beg for food. It seems that only openness and transparency can improve the image of the Central Propaganda Department. If all "writing incidents" are made clear to the world, they are openly tried by judicial organs, they are obvious to all, and they are evaluated in a reasonable way, and they are meticulous in investigation and evidence collection. Only then can this kind of unscrupulous hacking and killing be stopped and a fair publishing order be established. The old man Marx said that in all opaque countries, the people learn the truth from rumors and rumors. Therefore, every time the ban was banned, they ran to tell each other, and the more they spread, the more black they became.

What I don't understand is why these cultural officials in charge of ideology have so much sense of superiority, they can't get along with intellectuals as equals like Hu Yaobang, and they always have to put on the posture of "slave manager" in front of intellectuals. I also don't understand why it's not allowed to write about the Cultural Revolution, and it's not allowed to write about anti-Rightist? You are not allowed to write about going to the mountains and the countryside, and you are not allowed to talk about "Repent or Not to Repent"? Why is it written to smear the face of the Communist Party? Could it be that some leftover party from the Cultural Revolution who slipped through the net still wants to reverse the case? I don't even understand why "The Herald of History" was banned. It was the voice of the CCP bosses and democrats demanding that the Kuomintang end the one-party dictatorship and return power to the people. What's wrong with him? But they were all published in the Xinhua Daily, the official newspaper of the Communist Party! Could it really be true to Mao Zedong's famous saying, "Things often turn to their opposites"? After thinking about it, it is inevitable to try to figure out which place touched their "Oedipus complex". Still worried about banning "The Herald of History" today, will "Selected Works of Mao Zedong" be banned tomorrow? Should the "Complete Works of Marx and Engels" be banned the day after tomorrow? Marx blatantly advocated freedom of the press and opposed the censorship of books and newspapers! I think it's all opaque, you do mystifying, underground work, and people will wonder "why is this"? Are you "in line with the center"? Is it to deal with us like we used to engage in "underground work"? If you fill the hole here, he will make a hole there. If you want to clean up the hearts of the people, he will commit public anger; if you want to rebuild the basis of legitimacy, he will try to demolish the platform. It seems that they are specifically working against the new team. I don't know who they are going to listen to. Could it be that there is really another underground headquarters?

Even if the Central Propaganda Department is supposed to manage things, it doesn't manage it properly. Now the "internal reference" is flooding into a disaster, and it is said to be "internal reference", but it is not issued as a "file", but is clearly marked and publicly issued, and the word "secret" is also marked. What is this "internal reference"? If it's "secret", it's openly selling intelligence! Everything that enters the market is a general commodity, and everything I buy with money is my property, and I can do with it how I want to. If you have to be held accountable, you can only hold the publisher, not me, because I am not a "secret source". This principle is uncertain. I want to dispose of all my private property and sell it as a waste product. If you want to trouble me, you will sue me for "disclosure", and the person who makes and sells secrets will go unpunished. Isn't it absurd? But such a thing happened in Shanghai! The People's Lawyer Zheng Enchong was sentenced to two years in prison for one piece of bird ginseng! This is clearly a wrong case! How could he not have the right to deal with his personal belongings? The law does not protect the legitimate rights and interests of consumers, but forces consumers to keep "secrets" for producers, completely reversing the priority of the problem. If the Central Propaganda Department wants to manage affairs, it must set a standard for "internal reference". All products listed in the category of secrecy shall not be listed as commodities. As a consumer, there is no obligation to "secrecy" any product.

"Frozen three feet, not a day's cold", the accumulated evil has been long, and it is difficult to correct it. Ding Jiaban is the veritable Hell Palace, which has already caused the wrath of the sky and the resentment of the people. When the new team came to power, people had high expectations, but they soon discovered that the force of habit is so tenacious, and the roots of Ding Guangen are so deep-rooted and intertwined. People have also expressed their understanding when they see the downplaying of the two books, "The Past Is Not Like Smoke" and "The Survey of Chinese Farmers." But I don't know if the "Tai Shang Lao Jun is in a hurry like a law", and then there was a big counterattack that lost its normality. But I am not pessimistic, Ding Jiaban is going to collapse after all, maybe this is the "last jump of madness". In particular, seeing that members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee held a meeting on March 18 to further study and formulate measures to supervise the implementation of the Constitution and laws, officials in charge of ideology have repeatedly advocated the study of the Marxist view of journalism. The future of democracy is still promising. I deliberately flipped through the relevant works of Marx, and sorted out two notes, both of which are original without tampering, revision, and "development". I now make a copy for you, as a supplement to my advice to you. If we sincerely follow what Marx said, the Central Propaganda Department is not only not the king of hell, but an angel.

In addition, I thought that there should be many wise people in the Central Propaganda Department. They should thank you for your "crusade", because people used to be afraid of Ding Jiaban's perverted actions and can only "slander", the big deal She secretly scolded a few mothers and muttered a few times behind her back, but no one dared to speak out their views out loud. Now you have pierced this layer of window paper and let them see that Ding Jiaban is hated so much. If you can make them feel that their faces are dull and their hearts are ashamed, and then they repent and reform their hearts, then the country will be blessed. Blessed are the people, and bad things turn into good things.

Working smoothly!

Attachment: Two study notes on the Marxist view of journalism:

1. Need is not necessarily a fact

2. It is better to compare truth to flint
