Mao's Red Terror in China | History Documentary
Watch 'End of a Superpower - The Collapse of the Soviet Union' here: • End of a Superpower - ...
When Mao Zedong called for the “Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution” in China in 1966, the giant empire plunged into a decade of terror.
In the name of communist ideology, China’s fanatical youth formed “Red Guards” and established a despotic rule in which children had their parents arrested, neighbors denounced each other, and unleashed mobs to beat “class enemies” to death.
Its initiator Mao Zedong, who rose from a farmer’s son in the provinces to become the “Great Chairman” of the Chinese Communist Party, had united the Middle Kingdom after decades of civil wars - and proclaimed the People’s Republic of China in 1949. Thus, it transformed modern China into a new power factor in the Cold War of the great powers. When Mao met US President Richard Nixon shortly before his death, the disintegrating former Chinese empire had become a global economic power. The revolutionaries accepted the death of millions of people through the Red Terror as well as the destruction of civil society - a trauma from which China still suffers today.

At the beginning of the cultural revolution, China very much followed Stalin’s and Russia’s lead. But that ended and two communist enemies emerged. This is the story of Mao and what he did to the Chinese Psyche. They called him the “great leader “ The documentary gives a good overview of the situation in Asia from the 1930s until the 60s/70s. You get insight a lot of insight into the dynamics: why the Korean War happened, why two bombs were dropped on Japan and not only one. It’s a long watch and well worth it.
Ohhh . . . Had we helped? Our guys dying on their soil, or do you mean our people lacking by our taxes going there? It’s only those two things when emotion is taken out. While I feel for the world: China, Indonesia, Vietnam, Cambodia, Zimbabwe, Libya, all of Europe(simmering on the way to boiling), Argentina, chile, Japan’s defense, Haiti, etc, etc, etc…where all should our troops, money, and mental energy/hearts go? That’s leaving out the Middle East. Oh and Russia, Ukraine, Eastern Europe. Can we care but not get into any of these?….we seem to go from one to the next.
@@navydiver7018 ,
Only the communists still call Mao Zedong the "Great Leader" because he was the first one who brought ruling communism to China. Pol Pot, the communist Khmer Rouge leader from 1975 to 1979, had a vision that he could do better that Mao for Cambodia: a Killing Field. Only when the people of China can openly express their voice and vote, and by only then they can exactly say who their "Great Leader" really is.
what time this doc release?
@@navydiver7018 Totally agree. Films like this one here conveniently blame communism for the death and destruction yet totally whitewash the fact that the so called democracies in the West is also the cause of these death because they r the ones supporting and complicit in these wars and killings. The Vietnam, Korean, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Iraq, Yugoslavia, Ukraine etc etc. All these wars all over the world since WW2 were caused by or instigated by the US and its so called democratic countries.

@@WingkKong there's no such thing as a perfect system. Some are less flawed than others but that's about it really
Isn't it ironic the man who came from a wealthy farming family and was trained as an intellectual those were the first people he sought to destroy
Revolutionaries are always from well-to-do middle class homes. Thats how they come up with their crackpot theories, too much time and money for their own good. Over educated and think they know it all
Quite standard practice in each instance of a communist takeover...
The same thing with Pol Pot.
Mao was brilliant, whatever you think of his policies, Pol Pot was not. Pol pot envisioned a society of peasants, a distinctly anti-Marxist sort of thing.

Because he had no choice, the Soviet Union had the power of life and death over Mao Zedong. Mao Zedong endured it until the 1960s.

The Red Waves of Terror, symbolized by the bloodbath unleashed by Mao and Ho in Southeast Asia during the 1960s and 70s, has left a lasting scar that extended into the Pol Pot Genocide of Cambodia, famously known as 'the killing fields,' following the Vietnam War. The legacies of the Mao Red Terror, Ho Red Terror, and the horrors of the Pol Pot Genocide all trace back to a common root: the bloodbath of communism in Southeast Asia in the 20th century. The question remains: could such atrocities repeat in the 21st century and beyond? This documentary is a poignant reminder of the dark chapters of history, and I appreciate you sharing it.
The brainwashing education of the Vietnamese Communist Party keeps people from knowing these truths. Many people don't even know that HCM and Pol Pot are friends...🤣
Good question, but could there be a form of communism that doesn't result in bloodshed and starvation but Instead benefit people?
@@weplaydk2343 Communism is created from 3 main points: lies, violence, corruption. If one of the three is missing, it is not communism.
Yes there is. I lived a year in an American intentional community (there were 2000 at the time) and learned that even their true democracy had it's problems. The best model I have read on was from another community, where they had our system, only most power went to a benevolent dictator, ruling in favor of the majority. Problem in the world is, it's all about money, not morals or even spirituality.
Bloodbath unlease by Mao... History is written by the victors, and the victors has been the west. Bear that in mind. Your understanding of history is patchy at best but mostly misinformed. Ask yourself why is Mao so revered in China when (you) think he is such a monster?
Power corrupts...total power totally corupts
Money and power corrupt. The poor are often the most honest people you can find, which is the reason why they are poor. Never trust rich people as they always have an agenda.

My dad experienced the cultural revolution, and he is one of thousands and millions of victims. He almost died during the natural disaster (actually is a man made disaster) there are lots of sad stories he told me. It’s so sad that history repeats itself. I hope that Chinese people don’t have to suffer that situation again
there was nothing cultural about that revolution
The TRUE pis tha today's modern China owes a lot to Mao and the Socilsit Revolution. Today it is the second economy in the world, the largest creditor of the United States, the Asian country has the largest middle class, is the largest manufacturer and is the largest exporter in the world, and is a leader in science and technology. Before Mao and the revolution, China lived immersed in anarchy, superstition, poverty, misery, profund social inequalityexploited by Western imperialist countries.
@@Magno_o_Mago-iz1we Mao killed 100,000,000 Chinese and said it's ok, we have 100,000,000 more. Go get a refund from your failed government school
My wife's grandmother (who died 3 years ago) was a young teenager during those years. She refused to talk about it when we brought it up since we were both extremely interested in those years. Her father had been a minor landowner and the family lands were taken away, divided and given to others. Conveniently, the hardcore communists didn't leave them anything so they had to go live in the forest for years, scavenging and eating whatever they could find. Grandmother lost 2 siblings and 2 uncles -one disappeared and one killed- during the Cultural Revolution. My wife's father told us these things and also why grandmother didn't want to: After she had returned to the village, she was so thorughly brainwashed by Communists that she ended up believing everything that happened was entirely fair and she was lucky to be alive. Also, the years had been so hard that she barely survived and she felt physical pain thinking about the hunger, PTSD. They apparently often had to make soup out of grass and bark just to not go crazy from hunger. We never left anything on the plate whenever we ate with the family because grandmother would be visibly upset and uncomfortable seeing such a valuable thing as FOOD being wasted. Mao was a madman.
Pay attention America.
Give a man a uniform and he thinks he is God.
I don't think there's any good evidence for that, a uniform is ammoral. It's just my opinion, but I think that probably only severely narcissistic or psychopathic types would experience a god-complex by what most would consider a serious responsibility and a revocable privilege. Though, uniforms can be a tool used to facilitate or brainwash people into collectivizing, depending on their willingness to consent.
Stalin and Mao were much the same
And without Stalin, Mao wasn't the same.
no,liushaoqi were same,maozedong like zhuyuanzhang,if you know east asia history,Zhu yuanzhang got his start by relying on religion, and in the end he suppressed these religions more severely than anyone else,this is for his dream of being an emperor,And the Chinese must support the emperor

The ancient history of China is overstated. The capital was not always Beijing, the empire was conquered by the Mongols and the Manchus. Some periods saw multiple dynasties simultaneously. The belief in a continuous history is a modern myth.
Thing is the Mongols and Manchus adopted the Han customs
@@PollymichaelisThe language didn't change
But we still use almost the writing from 2000 years ago, speak the same sinitic language which involved a lot of course. I can read ancient text written on bamboo from warring state period. We never spoke the mongol or Manchu lanaguge and our culture during nomadic dynasties was still Confucian. When China is divided like in three kingdoms either party claim to be the true China. When north is occupied by outsiders Chinese culture flourished in southern China
@@jennifersun2638manchus did gradually change their language but mongols did not that’s why Qing dynasty lasted longer than Yuan dynasty

Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Thank you for making this documentary! The atrocities, violence, brutality, and despair endured by people in China from the 1950s to the 1970s ought to be known by the world. The impact was widespread, affecting families across the country. The staggering death toll, likely comparable to or exceeding that of World War II. Families teared apart, and decades of economic, social, and educational progress lost. These events left deep psychological scars, instilling fear and a pervasive lack of trust in the society. Shockingly, these realities were never officially acknowledged or addressed in China, and many perpetrators of brutal crimes were never held accountable. Growing up in China during the 1970s and 1980s, these dark chapters were intentionally omitted from our history textbooks. We learned about them from the firsthand accounts of our parents' generation, who survived these tumultuous times and were deeply impacted.
如果你多读点其他国家的历史书就知道50年代的饥荒是怎么回事，还有那二十年中国人口数增长多少？这就跟二十一世纪西方媒体还能鼓吹新疆种族灭绝一样可笑。毛泽东做过的坏事我们中国人都知道，但大多数人还是感谢他的好的一面，从那时开始中国已经放弃可笑的意识形态特别是在89年以后，不过用英语的人种以及被所谓民主洗脑的很多上等人已经失去了自己查找真相的能力了，可悲。
I remember in about 1972 there was a big China fair in Toronto that was a kind of symbol of the rapprochement going on. At that time I was studying the idea of ideology and education, so I went down to the fair and engaged Chinese staff at a bookstore in the fair. The guy I talked to shook his head vigorously at my question, insisting "no politics, no politics."

@@Magno_o_Mago-iz1we millions of Chinese people died under Mao’s regime. China had such a rich and beautiful history but in every communist regime the beautiful foundation and institutions must be demolished and replaced with the communist approved systems. Did you know China was able to access the world trade system only because the USA gave them permission to enter during the 1970s under the Nixon administration? Many of the leaps forward in industry occurred because China has stolen intellectual properties from the United States off the backs of our engineering and scientific industries. Also, they operate using forced labor camps of Uyghurs and Falun Gong victims and others they consider dissidents in prison labor camps. This helps to keep costs down and enables them to compete with an advantage but at what cost to human dignity? Yes US corporations turn to China to manufacture for cheaper labor costs and the US government has foolishly accepted loans from China. Greed and corruption is prevalent in many societies. Chinese Citizens are controlled by surveillance and the social credit system. If you want to credit Mao then I agree with you for forced labor, stolen intellectual properties, and a the current surveillance state. That is not a place I’d call free and if it’s not free I wouldn’t call it a success.
Unfortunately, there is no revolution without great mistakes and successes, and many deaths - all of this is humanly inevitable, but future history has shown that the revolution was essential to rid the country of backwardness, underdevelopment, inequality, landlords, and the colonial clutches of Western powers. .

History is so beneficial
Its only those who survived that can speak positively after a war or communist takeover. When those who survive speak of the positive aspects I make note that they too have dehuminized those who suffered senselessly and died
I like Taiwan due to they agree with me about being against communist China.
But they were the losers of the Chinese civil war and they weren't Taiwanese. They were mainland Chinese who followed CKS as escaping from Mao's forces.
Look if you want me to post negative comments against communist China just to let you know I can’t do that because KZhead will remove negative hostile comments.

They are the Republic of Formosa, not Taiwan and definitely not Chinese Taipei.
If you actually read the law of Taiwan beforehand during that stage it was as strict as the communist.
Thanks for showing - briefly - the chronology of those events from the 1930 s to 1960/70s in China, Japan and Korea for some of us still struggle to "ORGANIZE" those events together with the Americas and Europe. Mentioning the reason for the second bomb dropped in Nagasaki is also "educational" for the leftists in Uruguay (who've always messed up even our National History) use that 2nd bomb as "confirmation of how mean the U.S.A. is". Personally, I will always THANK you, Americans, for your never-ending efforts to MAINTAIN PEACE... or to REGAIN PEACE wherever that is required. Of course, some mistakes have been made - you're also "human" - but the Good Intention has prevailed. 👍🇺🇲👍 I'm not a religious person, but I do believe that God knows who you are... and He won't let you down. I wish this ALSO happened here, in Uruguay with the Democratic citizens who are fighting against the LEFTIST & ANARQUIST infiltration we're suffering by 2024.
I never understood how communism was supposed to be for the people, but all the leadership, all the planning and all the ownership was centralized and controlled by one small group

To those of us who lived through the 50s, 60s, and 70s the mysterious world of China was hidden from us, as this part of the world was a remote corner of secrecy. Yet what is going on in the world today, particularly in education, political correctness, cultural erasure, Wokeness, and historical revisionism has its roots in the era of Mao in China and his Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution. Not only in America but in Europe, even with the fall of the Soviet Union, the influence of Mao remains the dominant force of Marxism. Its tentacles run deep in policies and practices of creeping socialism into the fabric of our Western societies. This excellent video is largely drawn from the first-hand knowledge of Mao through his personal English translator. Today, if Americans want to know about themselves and the direction our nation and the West are traveling, we must understand Mao and China. China has surpassed every other nation in the world in the 20th century in its rapid advancement, growth, industrialism, development, and power.
You're easy to see through.

@@livinglife4835 What impressed you about anything he said?
China’s centralized power combined with a managed capitalism is adept at quickly adapting to the needs of society and countering the competition of other nation states. In some ways, they are superior to a republic or democracy because they can implement long term thinking and goals whereas western politicians and corporations are slaves to short term thinking and goals due to constant elections and quarterly earnings reports respectively. But, China has relied heavily on the theft of technology and innovations of western Capitalism to achieve their success. And to their credit, they are surpassing the West in science and technology. Now with the proliferation of smart phones and social media, China has a trojan horse with which to control, influence, and ultimately weaken the west. Hopefully, we can avoid the path China and other communist nations have taken as the death toll speaks for itself.
@@setransou Centeral planning has all the advantages you mention, but it also has not brakes or governors when bad decisions are made. For instance China committed itself to flood control that dislocated and destroyed countless villages. China has modeled it modernizing urban planning on the "American high-rise" and the automobile and freeways, etc. (with the exception of public trains), which has been a bad model and a major mistake that has erased much of its historical and cultural architectural and urban planning patrimony, destroying by erasure (from the Cultural Revolution onward) its uniquiese and character in the world. Most egregiously China by its central planning over built and and over loaned and is now in a recession that has dwarfed the declines of the West in 2008 and 2012. China cannot recover from this huge mistake made by its central planning, because it copied the Western industrialization model which leads to a reduction in population growth, which is an epidemic natural phenomenon seen in all the Western world. Their industrializing policies put their one child - one family policy to shame. China and its population, which was the largest in the world has now been eclipsed by India. China used to be 1/3 and India 1/4 of world population. Now it is India that has an expanding population. Socialized systems demand a 2.1% growth in population to sustain the Ponzi scheme of socialized welfare. Centeral planning when it makes mistakes, it makes huge mistakes. Certainly I have always been impressed with Chinese rapid growth and advancement, particularly when compared to Soviet Union advancement, or Western models, and still am, but I am also congnicent of its "huge" failures. The bigger the ship of state, the harder it is to turn around or stop its inertial motion.
This does not sound familiar at all…..

this was Mao Zedong's approach to purge China of Soviet agents. Liu Shaoqi and Zhou Enlai were both agents of the Soviet Union. Mao Zedong had no influence at the top of the military and intelligence agencies, so he could only mobilize the grassroots to suppress them. Without China's new entrants from North China, It is impossible for China to establish diplomatic relations with Western countries if grassroots cadres are allied with Mao Zedong. The first official private economy of the People's Republic of China was during the Cultural Revolution. Later, Deng Xiaoping suppressed the Gang of Four and used it as evidence of crime.
lmao
this was more simple than that, he was an evil man, that used people to keep power nothing more nothing less, evil has the same motives, destroy and control
Deng xio ping brought a thaw
No, it was the United States that brought about the thaw. Deng Xiaoping was Liu Shaoqi's successor. He launched a military coup to overthrow Hua Guofeng. He launched a crackdown on the private economy and the family planning system suppressed China's population.

将革命进行到底
MAO loves dong
We can't really say if it was not necessary. He did in the end united China once more since the fall of Imperial China and got the country into being one of 3 super power today. Necessary evil or the greater of two evils, as some would say.
Very good survey of the period, particularly from Mao's rise to power. Yes, the CCP has not dealt with the Cultural Revolution despite the fact that the current leader and his family were directly affected.
Mao Tse Tung was satan’s helper.
America and the west are on the same Mao’s road .
