Based on this story, the author's point of view about
life in China during the Cultural Revolution is that people lived under a brutal government.
The goal of the Cultural Revolution of China was to preserve the proper dogma
of the Communist party by eradicating the remnants of capitalist and
traditional fundamentals from their society, reinforce Maoist thought as the principal
ideology. This revolution manifested the coming back of Mao Zedong and it
paralyzed the political and economic areas of China at a greater rate. Many
people were executed at this time and suffered a great deal of abuse publicly
such as imprisonment, hard labor, torture, aggravation and execution. It was
established because Mao Zedong felt that a lot of revolutionist whose aim was
to reinstate capitalism, has penetrated the government. He wanted these people
to be detached from the society forever and from then on, many public officials
and civilians were executed horribly.
