A Look at the Rise of Great Powers

-- Wei Jingsheng

In recent years, many scholars have talked about the rise of great powers, or the return of the Cultural Revolution in China. However, few people have linked them together. In fact, of the rise of the four great powers in the past 100+ years, there were three of them linked with a cultural revolution: Nazi Germany, the Cultural Revolution in China itself, and now Xi Jinping's "revolution". Only one out of four the rising powers was successful, which was the rise of the United States. Today we will take a look at the similarities and differences of these four powers in order to learn historical experience and lessons.

Both Adolf Hitler and Mao Zedong had learned this from the Confucius: Scarcity is not a concern, but inequality is. So both received the support of most people, to the degree of fanatical. The difference between Hitler and Mao is that Hitler relied on the market economy of Capitalism, while Mao believed the so-called socialist economy of serfdom. As a result, Adolf Hitler got the power to fight over the world, while Mao Zedong only had the ability to yell his slogans all over the world.

Why didn't Mao Zedong have the strength of Adolf Hitler? Because serfdom is too backward. Hitler was able to quickly raise the living standard for most Germans, while Mao Zedong quickly lowered the living standard of the Chinese. In a short span of ten years, Mao produced the catastrophe of starvation of one-tenth of the Chinese population. Thus, thoughts of resistance began to brew among the Chinese. Afterwards, the 1978 and 1989 democratic movements in China gradually broke out and the authoritarian dictatorship no longer was the object of worship.

Adolf Hitler understood the one truth that is it would not be sufficient to maintain an authoritarian regime solely relying on repression and policies to fool people. In order to gain support, he tried letting the majority of Germans receive a benefit. Deng Xiaoping was a good student of Hitler. Deng's "reform and opening up" for economic development were steps following Hitler. Deng hoped that he could maintain an autocratic, one-party dictatorial politic by improving people's living standards, just like Hitler.

Also just like Hitler, Deng's policy was supported by the capitalists all over the world. Because these capitalists knew that without the suppression of the Communist regime, there would be no surplus value and excess profit according to the theory of Karl Marx. Their anxious enthusiasm in support of Deng Xiaoping even surpassed Deng himself. They even would use the national interests of the United States to help the Chinese Communist regime in order to share the excess profits derived from exploitation.

China's economy has developed rapidly on the basis of exploiting the peoples of China and the United States. The gaps between the rich and the poor in both China and the United States are rapidly expanding. The Chinese Communist Party has rapidly risen with the support of capitalists all over the world. As a result, Xi Jinping, the fourth rising ambitionist, was born. He feels that he has passed the qualifications of Deng Xiaoping and Mao Zedong. He thinks that he has successfully established a super power that unified the world and has become "the Saint that only appears once in a millennium" as bragged by the Communist newspaper in China.

What is the difference between Xi Jinping, in comparison to Hitler and Mao? The first is that there is no concern of scarcity but concern of inequality. Although Hitler had prosperity while Mao Zedong made poverty, both of them implemented socialism. Although their socialism was deformed, it indeed reduced the gap between the rich and the poor, and won the support and worship of the "low-end population". This is the foundation for the rise of their dictatorial autocracy, although they were not secure and failed shortly after, they were at least half successful.

Xi Jinping has no need of concern for scarcity, but the inequality has been really severe. He got the misconception that where there is money, he could do anything. So probably even before he could rise he will see karma come early, which is "the retribution in this life" as the Chinese say. In order to change the status quo of inadequacy, Xi started the second land reform, as well as turning private ownership into public partnership, while like Hitler and Mao he wants to insure the Communist Party leads everything. In this era of the Internet, this is not just a stupid policy; it plays like a rhythm of seeking death.

The only example that has emerged successfully in the past more than one hundred years is the United States. The rise of Europe and Japan that followed are also a result of the American model. This model is to govern society according to law, under the protection of political democracy while economically using socialism to regulate the most effective market economy. The model ensures the rapid development of the economy, meanwhile rapidly raising people's living standards. This is the experience learned from the rapid rise of the United States in the last century. It is the best example for the world to learn.

Although the United States has been implicated by China in recent decades and has started to deviate from this successful model, China has not yet learned the experience of others. This is the reason why the Chinese people must eradicate the rise of Xi Jinping and start from new.

试看大国崛起

-- 魏京生

近年来多有学者谈论大国崛起，或者文革复辟，但很少有人把这二者联系起来看。其实最近一百多年来的四次大国崛起，有三次和文革有牵连。这就是纳粹德国，文革和习近平。四次之中只有一次成功的，那就是美国。今天咱们就来看看四次崛起都有哪些相同和不同，以便接受历史的经验和教训。

希特勒和毛泽东都从孔夫子那儿学到了这一条：不患寡而患不均。所以他们都得到了大多数人的支持，甚至是狂热的支持。老希和老毛的不同之处是，老希依托资本主义市场经济，而老毛信奉农奴制的所谓社会主义经济。结果老希能够拥有打遍全世界的实力，而老毛只有喊遍全世界的能力。

为什么老毛没有老希的实力呢？这是因为农奴制太落后。希特勒可以迅速提高大多数德国人民的生活水平，老毛则是迅速降低了大多数人的生活水平。短短十年，就造成饿死了十分之一人口的大灾难。人民之中开始酝酿反抗和抵制的思潮。之后逐渐爆发了七八年和八九年的民主运动，使得专制独裁不再是人们崇拜的对象。

希特勒懂得一个道理，就是仅仅依靠镇压和愚民政策不足以维持专制政权，还要让多数人获得实惠，才能得到他们的支持。邓小平是希特勒的好学生，他的改革开放，发展经济就是得到了希特勒的真传。他希望能够像希特勒一样，靠着提高人民的生活水平来维持专制，一党独裁的政治。

也和希特勒一样，邓的政策得到了全世界资产阶级的支持。因为全世界资产阶级都知道：没有共产党的专制压迫，就没有马克思所说的剩余价值和超额利润。他们支持邓小平的迫切热情，甚至超过邓小平自己。乃至不惜损害美国的国家利益来帮助中国共产党，分享剥削所得的超额利润。

中国的经济在剥削中美两国人民的基础上迅速发展；中美两国的贫富差距在迅速扩大；共产党在全世界资产阶级的支持下迅速崛起。于是，横空出世了第四个崛起的野心家习近平，他觉得他已经有超越老邓和老毛的资格，成功建立一统天下的超级大国，成为共产党报纸正在吹嘘的千年圣君。

他和老希、老毛相比有什么不同呢？首先是不患寡而患不均。老希和老毛虽然一穷一富，但都实行了社会主义。虽然是畸形得变了调的社会主义，但也确实降低了贫富差距，赢得了“低端人口”的支持和崇拜。这是他们独裁专制崛起的基础，虽然不牢靠很快就失败了，但至少成功了一半。

习近平已经不患寡了，可惜大大的而患不均。错以为有钱就可以任性，可能不等他崛起，报应就会提前来到。就是老百姓说的现世报。想要改变不患寡而患不均的现状，于是就开始第二次土改、公私合营，也学希特勒和毛泽东搞什么党是领导一切的。在互联网的时代，这不是愚民政策，简直就是找死的节奏。

一百多年来唯一成功崛起的榜样，就是美国。跟着崛起的欧洲、日本也是美国模式。这就是在政治民主的保障下，依法治理社会；经济上使用社会主义来调节最有效的市场经济。保证在迅速发展经济的同时，迅速发展人民的生活水平。这就是上个世纪美国迅速崛起的经验，是全世界学习的最好的榜样。

虽然最近几十年美国受中国的牵连，开始背离成功的模式，但是中国还没有学会人家成功的经验。这才是中国人必须铲除习近平的崛起，而另起炉灶的原因。
