Communism in China

The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression (1999) states on Page 466 that during the Communist reign in China most morality was based on respect for familial obligations and if or once broken anything could happen. For example, they would cut officials who would oppose or speak against their government into pieces, and if their wives and children refused to eat them, they would be dismembered themselves. Killing became an act of compassion and the worse a death is, the greater the reward would be. The book estimates a death toll of 65 million in Communist China throughout the 20th Century. Now ask yourself this: how is China going to react when Australia blocks the progression of the Belt and Road Initiative?

Before I go on any further I must say this, I do not intend the information above and to follow to reflect Chinese civilians or Chinese people around the world or the Chinese culture. Communism is a political ideology that is not reflective of any culture being practised around the world today. 

The Black Book of Communism estimates 20 million deaths in the Soviet Union; 65 million deaths in China; 1 million deaths in Vietnam; 2 million deaths in North Korea; 2 million deaths in Cambodia; 1 million deaths in Eastern Europe; 150,000 deaths in Latin America; 1.7 million deaths in Africa; 1.5 million deaths in Afghanistan.

The Rise of Communism

Karl Marx (a Jew turned Atheist) was a German philosopher who with the help of Friedrich Engels wrote the Communist Manifesto published in 1848. The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (U.S.S.R) was the first country to implement Marx’s ideology outlined in his Communist Manifesto. The creation of the U.S.S.R was driven by the Russian Revolution, also known as the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917 led by Leon Trotsky. 

Leon Trotsky, an Ukrainian-Jew, was a vocal advocate of Marx’s Communism Ideology who caught the attention of American Financier Jacob Schiff, who was also Jewish. Behind the financial support of Jacob Schiff, Trotsky travelled to a densely populated Jewish region in the U.S.S.R to organise a militia group later named the Red Army. The Red Army composed of 50,000 officers fought in the Russian Civil war from 1917 to 1922. The death toll of the Russian Civil War is estimated to be around 8 million caused by armed attacks, famine and disease.

Vladimir Lenin was the first leader of the Bolshevik Russian Communist party which gained power in 1921; forming the world’s first Communist government. The Black Book of Communism quotes Lenin saying famine would destroy the peasant economy; would speed up the ushering in of socialism; and would destroy faith not only in the tsar, but in God too. Lenin wanted to break people's spirits and make those who opposed him to at least look at the communist party with indifference.

In a Communist State, the government is to have full ownership and authority over the agriculture industry. After gaining power, Lenin ordered the destruction of all crops, confiscation of all crop seeds and confiscation of all foods from households. These orders in effect stripped farmers of their land and created dependence on the government for food thus the Communist Party taking full control of the agriculture industry in the U.S.S.R. The Russian Famine 1921-1922 led to cannibalism; children were captured and dismembered, so were women for the flesh of their breasts. The famine is estimated to have caused 6 million deaths.

Gulag Archipelago (1973) by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn paints a vivid picture of what life was like in U.S.S.R's concentration labour camps, commonly referred to as 'Gulags'. Mr. Solzhenitsyn was put in a Gulag after correspondence intended to his friend was intercepted by Censorship police, the correspondence happened to contain disrespect remarks about then U.S.S.R leader Joseph Stalin.

Solzhenitsyn in his book portrays horrific accounts of the different torturous interrogation techniques undertaken by interrogation officers. In one account, an interrogator ordered his assisting officers to lay a prison down on his back; hold down his arms and legs down with his legs spread apart. The interrogator would stand in-between the prisoners legs and with the tip of his shoe he applies pressure on the prisoner's manhood gradually until his manhood is crushed.

Solzhenitsyn recalls incidents where a prisoner was beaten in the abdomen section until his intestines were protruding through his stomach. Occasionally, prisoners were beaten to be forced into signing a confession statement which in effect meant signing their life away.  Other techniques of interrogation included threats such as "And if you die in the interrogator's office, they'll tell your relatives you've been sentenced to camp without the right of correspondence. And then just let them look for you."

Opinion

Consider your existence as a living human being for a moment. Over one hundred million lives, like yours, were killed under Communist Rule in the 20th century. The Australian Government is fully aware of the bloody history of communism, thus facilitating whatever narrative being portrayed in the media. The latest narrative in the media happens to be a dispute over a twitter post by a Chinese Government twitter account depicting an Australian Soldier holding a knife to the neck of an Afghan child. Here we have 2 powerful nations bickering as if high school girls over a photoshopped picture posted on twitter.
