Hometown Visit (3) - Practice is the sole yardstick for truth
"Hey, look at this." Nipple pointed at the TV. "The theme song of Water Margin is also horrible."
I took a glance at the screen. "New Water Margin? Hmm. In the industry of movie music, we have nothing that can match Mulan and Air Force One. Moreover, the United States has a great lot more like these."
"What in the sam hill is Air Force One all about?" Zhen cut in.
"Yah, what's the story?" followed Yang.
"I thought you two watched all famous and popular action movies and Air Force One is one," said Nipple.
"And why is that?" Zhen questioned.
"Yah," Yang added, "what made you think we two watched all famous and popular action movies?"
"Because you Siamese sisters are ACTION girls." Nipple blinked.
"Shut your butt hole up!" The two shouted at the same time.
I had never tried to confront Zhen and Yang at school. Age failed to change their characters - they were what they are, they are what they were.
"Okay, you two still wanna hear the story?"
"Yes." Zhen and Yang turned back to me.
"Then don't cut me short until I finish the story."
They sat closer when I cleared my throat a bit.
"For sure, as you all know, Air Force One is a chartered jet for US president, but much larger. It's huge. So, we have this US President James Marshall here. At the beginning of the movie, Comrade James Marshall delivers an important speech at a national conference of political ideology propaganda work.
Marshall points out, 'Our propaganda and ideological work must aim at arming the people with scientific theory, guiding the people with correct public opinion, building the people with noble spirit, encouraging the people with outstanding artworks.
Marshall emphasizes, 'We shall incessantly bring up and create one generation after another of new Capitalist people with Four Qualifications in ideal, virtue, culture, and discipline.'
Marshall points out, 'our new Capitalist people with Four Qualifications shall firmly lay solid ideological foundations and provide favoured efforts of public opinion for the great cause of constructing Capitalism with American Characteristics.'
And Air Force One is just the ideal of flexible learning Marshall Thoughts and applying it in a creative way so as to make political propaganda work perfect.
And then, the real feature presentation is on. President Marshall's Air Force One is hijacked by terrorists. The bodyguards cover President Marshall to escape from the escaping pod. But, at the pivotal point, President Marshall chooses to stay with her fellow Americans in danger. With his extraordinary intelligence and courage, President Marshall battles wits and volition with the terrorists abroad, Soviet revisionist chieftain from Kazakhstan, and those Socialist Roaders in power at home, making no concession to and no negotiation with the reactionaries. For favour of American people's happiness, he lets common civilians escape safely first at the cost that he might lose his family and his own life. American people, however, can't allow him to lose his own life. If President Marshall were to sacrifice, who would be able to lead the Capitalist Revolution of the whole world? With the united efforts and striving of American people and European people, President Marshall eventually defeats all the enemies and comes back to his American people again.
The movie successfully demonstrates the glorious achievements President Marshall wages inexorable struggles with Soviet Social Imperialism, Communism, Left Putschism, Right Capitulationism, Left Opportunism, Socialist Roaders in power at home, the terrorists abroad, and all the reactionaries, and wins the victory at last. As well, the movie thoroughly proves President Marshall's brilliant inference of ALL TERRORISTS ARE PAPER TIGERS. Meanwhile, in the movie, American people also find - "Communism has not given up the ambition to subjugate our country". Thus, American people shall heighten the vigilance to well defend the country, brace for attacks and all disasters, and live up to the guideline of oil priority while continuing to send out Color Revolution under the flag of democracy and freedom at the same time.
All in all, the movie shows the unparalleled resplendence of President Marshall's glorious thoughts. Marshall Thoughts is a bright lamp on the sea guiding the direction of America and world democracy revolution. The release of the movie has triggered resounding repercussions throughout American people and is followed by dual harvest for spiritual civilization and material civilization.
Long live to great mentor, great leader, great commander, great steerer - President Marshall!"
"That's it?" Yang asked while Ling, Tingting, and the boys were laughing.
"Yah, that's it."
"I'm sorry. We shouldn't have let you drink the liquor that much. Your mind flew away. You are drunk."
"No, I'm not."
"Yes, you are."
"No, I'm not. I'm fine, I'm okay, I'm good. And I feel great after drinking." I defended.
"Not fun," she shook her head.
"Fun." Zhen disagreed.
"Not fun." Yang repeated.
"Fun." Zhen insisted.
"Why fun?" asked Yang.
"Because he is still as sick as before in high school."
"Thanks for telling me I'm still as dashing as a teenager in your eyes." I tipped Zhen a wink.
"But seriously, which boy in our class is not sick? None. Look what's in their brains every day." She sneered at all us boys in the class.
"Right. The boys in our class are just a whole bunch of wacks." Zhen's rhetorical questioning caused unvaried Yang's echoing.
"If so, then lucky us. But you two can't be serious," said Tingting, hesitating to choose between Hawaiian and pepperoni.
"Hey, I have something to say." Nipple raised his hand. "I'm a probationary Communist now."
"What?! Are you serious?" Yang's small eyes looked very big now.
"You? No way. You don't believe in Marxism at all," Fatty emphasized, "every body knows that."
"Hey, join the Party had nothing to do with political belief any more, long ago. Didn't you know that when you graduated from kindergarten?" Tingting passed a slice of veggie pizza to Skinny.
"You must be teasing us, buddy." Skinny crumpled his napkin tissue into a ball and tossed to Nipple.
Nipple caught it dexterously. "No, I'm not kidding. Serious."
"But why?" asked Fatty, "remember? You said, 'if the world were to be taken by Communists one day in the future, I would be the last non-Communist'. That's what you said, that's what you told us. And you also said, 'Communist Party's bible Das Kapital - volume 4 was formally and officially translated and published in 1982 while the first edition of the former three volumes of Das Kapital poorly translated by Wang Yanan and Guo Dali were published in 1938. But Communist Party of China formed in 1921 and they started Communist Revolution to fight Nationalists in 1927. In another word, they didn't even complete reading the bible of Marxism and didn't master the doctrine of Marxism when they started to launch nationwide revolution in China. They didn't know whether Marxism was applicable to China or not, because they didn't even read the whole bible of Marxism.' Thank you again for having told me all those. If my memory lied to me, correct me. Now you are, sorry, say it again, you are what?"
I was always impressed by Fatty's memory.
"Commie." Yang gestured scissors with both hands up in the air.
"But those words about Das Kapital weren't originally from me. People enlightened me, so I merely repeated people's words to you." Nipple turned to look my way. It was me who had told him all those.
"It doesn't matter, does it?" Skinny questioned. "Fact is there, truth is there, history is there. Isn't it so?"
"Hey, say something," Zhen jabbed me in the shoulder, "your buddy is commie now. You have nothing to say?"
"Oh, I'm as sick as back in high school. And I'm a weird guy doing weird things. Who the heck wants to listen to a sick and weird guy? So, why bother?"
"Hey, hey, come on. Remember what you said to me before? Wait, how to say that again, uh, oh yah, 'I'm not Zhou Gongjin. Don't think I can be exasperated by one or two words.' Who said that to me? Who said that to me?"
"Okay, okay, you win, you win. But look, guys. It's the era democracy and freedom prevails nowadays. To join the Party is people's freedom and personal choice. People have all rights to do that. I'm sure every one here will respect each other's personal choice."
"Buddy, I want to know your opinion on Marxism," Nipple said to me, "and then I let you know what's in my mind."
"Serious?"
"Serious."
"Oh come on, just shoot." Yang seemed a bit impatient again.
"All right, I do have a few words to say here. Well, honestly, it's very hard for me to understand why 21st century's China still takes, as bible of ideology, the theory of Karl Marx, a German Jew who was born during the period of Emperor Jiaqing. As Communist Party educates us, anything after Opium War is Modern History while anything before Opium War is Ancient History. So, that is to say, even by now, we Chinese are still using an ancient Westerner's stuff as our guidelines to develop today's China whilst the whole world has long said sayonara to Herr Marx. Can you guys understand why? Sorry, I can't. Now, the whole world is like a small village, we all live together. Thanks to internet. Today, Chinese people have opened the eyes. So, take a look around this world and see what's going on about Marxism. Marx's fatherland - Germany: German people spurned it away; Marx's ethnic fatherland - Israel: Israelis people spurned it away; Marx's cemetery country - England: English people spurned it away; Marx's class-struggle theory testing country - Soviet Union: no matter how many nuclear missiles, how many aircraft, how many tanks, and how many cannons the Soviet Union did have, nothing could stop the peoples of Russia, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, Ukraine, Moldova, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan from spurning it away. Needless to mention those Eastern European countries where Marxism regimes were established under bayonet. In a nutshell, the essence of Marxism is nothing that encourages you to create, to blaze the trail, to study science and technology hard, or teaches you to be Beethoven, to be da Vinci, to be Shakespeare, to be Michael Jackson, to be Tu Youyou and Yuan Longping, or guides you to upgrade and optimize the production line in factories or to research hybrid rice in farmlands, or inspires you to pick up hoes and sickles to crop, to harvest, to conquer great nature, and to climb the paramount of science, but everything that instigates you to damage, to destroy, to break into those landlords' homes, Thomas Edison's home, Bill Gates' home, Steve Jobs' home, Mark Zuckerberg's home, and other capitalists' homes to raid, to rob, to smash, and instigates you to go with "class struggle" and to "destroy the old world". Marx's stuff doesn't bring us human beings with creation, peace, love, and prosperity, but with feud, poverty, disaster, havoc, as well as endless insanity of so-called "man-kill-man fun". Good thing is, President Xi pointed out at a press conference in Europe - any tangerine planted in the south of River Huai is tangerine whilst the same thing transplanted to the north of River Huai becomes bitter orange. Well said, well thought of! As such, I think he is trying to tell the whole world that Marxism from the Western World - south of River Huai, doesn't apply to this Eastern land - north of River Huai. I will be much gratified when I witness the moment that our country eventually bids farewell to that German Jew."
"Well said!" Tingting thumped the table.
"Agree!" said both Zhen and Yang.
Skinny gave a thumb-up while Ling was smiling to me.
"You spoke out my words, buddy." said Fatty, waving a half-bitten spring roll.
"Actually, I have another word to add if I may. It's about the subject of practice." I said to Nipple.
"Go ahead."
"Again and again, your Communist Party tells ..."
"Don't say it's my party, it's also yours."
"Why mine? I'm not Communist. Well, fine. Our Party, happy? Again and again, our Party tells the whole country of people, practice is the sole yardstick of truth. Undoubtedly, this is darn right. I can't agree any more. How's the practice of Marxism theory in ex Soviet Union? Failed. How's its practice in Poland? Failed. How's its practice in Hungary? Failed. Czechoslovakia? Failed. East Germany? Failed. Bulgaria? Failed. Albania? Failed. Ex Yugoslavia? Failed. Romania? Well, I'm sorry Ceausescu and his wife can't give us an answer any more. The theory is tested failed by practice after practice, once, twice, thrice, again and again, failure after failure, here, there, everywhere. Does the United Nations require China to stick to this theory? No. Does the United Nations specify the theory must be tested on Chinese people on and on til forever? No. And why do our China and Chinese people still have to stick to this theory? Sometimes I really don't understand our Party. One hand, the Party tells us, practice is the only criterion of testing truth and theory. The other hand, the Party tells us, sticking to Marxism theory is the basic rule by which every single Chinese shall abide. What on earth are we doing? Which country's people is still sticking to this theory in the whole world today? As ex President Jiang says, BE IN THE MOMENT. I can't agree any more. Sticking to an out-of-date, ossified philosophy theory proposed by a Germany Jew born in ancient times is nowhere close to being in the moment, but everywhere close to the path heading to meeting Ceausescu and his wife. President Jiang is smart and intelligent and you guys know where he graduated from. And our Chief Designer of Reform and Opening-up Deng Xiaoping also told us, what matters to a good cat is to catch mice instead of what color its body is. That tells Chinese people, liberal democracy system or Communist dictatorship system, Capitalist marketing economy system or Socialist planning market system, we don't care, as long as it makes Chinese people richer and happier, as long as it works no matter what system and theory we use and apply. This is the key, this is wisdom and intelligence. Look what he also said - those who followed the United States have all become richer and richer. And look what ex Vice President Wang Zhen said after visiting the United Kingdom - this country is just amazing and the only thing that it lacks of is the leadership of Communist Party; with that added on, it's already the ideal society of Communism. So what system and theory have the US and the UK been using? Marxism theory? As practice proves again and again, Marxism theory worked nowhere and Socialist planning economy made those countries collapsed and disintegrated one after another. Who else is still abiding by Marxism? North Korea, Cuba, and Vietnam. Look at North Korea. The only fat guy in that country is Kim I, then Kim II, then Kim III while the whole nation is struggling on the verge between life and death. The whole country is all pitch dark seen from satellites at night while South Korea is all dazzling and brilliant. 
Same race, same nation, same people. Look at West Germany and East Germany. Do we still need more examples? And now, the army conscription benchmark for height is even lowered to 1.5 metre in North Korea. People already have nothing, nothing to lose. So what are they protecting Marxism theory for? Practice of Marxism in North Korea has turned to that Kim I passed the regime to Kim II, Kim II passed the regime to Kim III. And such practice in Cuba turned to elder brother Fidel Castro passed the regime to younger brother Raúl Castro. Is this a feudal dynasty or Socialist republic in modern civilized world? Cuba is still so poor after all these years. People still live in poverty. It's just a little better than North Korea. Oh I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I forgot a thing. That conforms to the actual situations of North Korea, starving to death conforms to the actual situations of North Korea, starving to death conforms to the north of Parallel 38 North, even 1 inch north to that parallel."

"And Vietnam?" I continued, "that country is already on the way for political system reforming and heading to embracing democracy and freedom step by step. So who else is still practising Marxism theory?"
"You guys know what," Skinny said, "a new slogan was proposed recently. It's something like 'we are confident in theory, confident in system, confident in path'. But at the same time, another slogan of theirs is 'we have to wade across the river by feeling for stones on the riverbed' and they are still learning how to do things through trial and error. And these days, they say, the theory they have found is the truth in the universe, in the cosmos. Can you imagine that?"
"Whoever proposed this slogan, does he use bathroom every day?" Fatty asked.
"Why?" said Skinny.
"I wonder."
"I really worry about these people too." Tingting said. "Hehe, one hand, feel for stones to cross the river, the other hand, confident in theory, system, and path. And even found the cosmos truth. As time goes on, I wonder they would turn psychopath and schizo."
Nipple also laughed along with us after Tingting's words.
"Guess who proposed the slogan of confident in theory, system, and path." Ling spoke in a serious tone. "It's that Yi Junqing, director Central Compilation and Translation Bureau of CCCPC and standing director of China Society of History of Marxist Philosophy. And the post of that director is de facto equivalent to vice minister."
"Oh, you mean the one who f u c ked Dr. Chang Yan many times and lied to her that in return, he could help her for domicile registration in Beijing? Is that the one?" Zhen shouted.
"Yep."
"This is magnificent! Fantastic!" Skinny spoke out loudly. "How confident in theory, how confident in system, and how confident in path!"
"Well, too many ass-suckers." I looked around at them. "Instead of absorbing loafers, I truly hope the Party can do something as the patriotic poet Gong Zizhen suggested,
'O Party! Bestir yourself,
I beseech you,
And recruit men of all the talents'."
"There was no Communist Party in Qing Dynasty. Okay?" said Tingting.
"Well, this is just what I think and what I feel, personally. If the Party asks for my opinion and point of view one day, that's what I'm gonna say."
"You are right, buddy." Skinny echoed.
"You are telling the fact, the reality. You spoke out our words," said Fatty.
"Actually," Tingting combed her fringe aside, "any one with normal logical thinking would say the same thing. Jiang is right, be in the moment. China needs reform to follow the mainstream of the world. Mr. Deng is right. Practice is the sole criterion of testing truth and theory. Practice has told us, reform must be made. Thank you for sharing your thought with us."
I smiled back at her.
"I'm not interested in these, but I've learned something today."
"Same here," said Yang after Zhen.
Surprised, I nodded acknowledgement to them.
Noticing Nipple had been listening and thinking, I gave him a fingers-snap. "For your joining the Party, I would assume, maybe that's because you think the problem of corruption is very serious and you want to give a helping hand, no matter how teenie-tiny your hand is?"
"Yah, what's in your mind? What happened, Nipple?" Skinny asked.
"Just because Jina dumped you? I know that's a big disaster to you, but life has to move on." Now it was Tingting's turn to try to comfort Nipple. "Every one gets dumped once a while, but it doesn't mean that's the end of the whole world, does it?"
"No, not because of Jina. The truth is, I am bored outside the Party. I wanna go inside, to take a look, to see what's going on, to check out how the whole mechanism runs, and I ..."
"Take a break, man." Skinny broke in, unlidding another bottle of beer and then picking up a slice of Garden Veggie. "Don't you have anything else better to do in your life? You have tons of girls ahead on your road waiting for you to chase. Just leave the Party alone there. Don't bother."
"Skinny, hear him out." I reminded.
"I think, basically I am a good person though I admit I like Miss Hatano 
and Miss Ozawa 
a lot."
and Miss Ozawa a lot.""Wait, who's Miss Hatano and Miss Ozawa? Your Japanese teachers?" I asked.
"Yes, Nipple's Japanese teachers after work." Fatty answered on his behalf while Zhen and Yang were already seen giggling.
"Hatano Yui and Ozawa Maria, Miss Aoi's colleagues." Skinny put down his beer. "Oh come on. Don't tell me you've never heard of Miss Aoi in Canada."
"No, I haven't heard of Miss Aoi."
"Ok, I know what you are." Zhen put her hand on my left shoulder.
"And I know what you are not." Yang laid her hand on my right.
"All right, all right, so what am I and what am I not?" I shook their hands off my shoulders by swinging my upper half body, but I suddenly realized such act was very feminine, at least not very manly.
"You pretend to look you like pizza, but so far you haven't eaten a slice."
"You know, that will not only hurt Nipple, but also hurt all of us for we all love pizza." Yang added after Zhen's words.
"Hey, I love pizza more than any of you guys and even more than any of Italians. The fact is, right before coming here, I just ate a late breakfast and I ate too much. Had you guys informed me of pizza earlier, I could have stopped eating anything a week before if not a month before so as to make huge room for my favourite food."
"All right, that makes sense. But you haven't heard of Miss Aoi? Are you serious? Who else hasn't heard of her in China?" Zhen still seemed to doubt.
"She even had a group photo with Yang Lan and Song Zuying. 
In China, I would say, she is the top celebrity in you men's eyes. Tons of men dream to meet her." Yang further explained.
In China, I would say, she is the top celebrity in you men's eyes. Tons of men dream to meet her." Yang further explained."Oh, you remind me of something. Look, I've personally met three celebrities in my life. One was a star in Hong Kong, one was a star in Hollywood, and one was a star in world politics and affairs. And they are all dead. I was never aware my magnetic field was this big. Since then, I refused to meet any celebrity personally. But I don't refuse to go back to history to visit three celebrities when time machine gets invented. And the first guy is Stalin, the second is the Führer. But of course, I will call them first and persuade them to be nice to people, not to persecute people, and not to launch the war. If they don't listen, then I will pay a visit accordingly."
"I know who is the third one you would visit." Ling smiled to me. "But shall we ..."
"Thanks for reminding. Let's hear Nipple out. Sorry, buddy. Go ahead."
"Thanks." Nipple went on. "Sorry, where was I? Oh yah, Party should absorb more good people, right? I'm not a bad one. We can't just sit here and watch more and more creepy ones sneak into the Party and change the Party's nature bit by bit, day by day. Look what's going on there. If people like us don't get in, if we all sit idling here, then those ultra-leftists and Mao-leftists will dominate the Party, and eventually dominate the country and the nation. Look what has happened in Chongqing. See, ex Premier Wen Jiabao proposed the reform of political system for a number of years and he retired; now, no one is doing anything for that. Leaving Marxism alone, my Party membership role is to enhance the force of reformists in the Party. I surely know what we can do is so teenie-tiny, but it's better than nothing. Plus, democracy and freedom is not just something we talk about something and then we get, but something we do something and then we get. Practice, practice, practice, not talk, talk, talk. There has to be someone doing something, doing practice. There got to be. If you won't do, I won't do, he and she won't, then who will?"
It surprised me that Nipple changed this much. Before, he had never cared about anything like this. It couldn't be Jina who had changed him.
"You made a point, buddy." I tipped the table.
"I will give a YES to my unit's Party secretary who has asked me to join them several times. What will you do?" Skinny looked at Fatty.
"You know I'm in the foreign company. But, count me in, as a reformist." Fatty raised his hand.
"Do you think these boys look very stupid in the eyes of the people in Beijing?" Yang asked Zhen.
"Why do we care what and how we look in the eyes of Beijing natives? Like, do we always ask what will Mrs Grundy say?" I questioned.
"See? Told you ah how sick and crazy the boys in our class are. And I kind of like sick and crazy boys now." Zhen replied.
Ling poured a glass of red wine and raised it - "To our sick and crazy boys!"
"To sick and crazy boys!" Followed Tingting, and Zhen, and Yang, and then all.
When every one put down the drink, Zhen said, "I really wish every day could be like this, not only because it's fun, but also because I can learn something."
"So, what have you learned today?" I asked.
"Practice is the sole yardstick for truth."

Long live to great mentor, great leader, great commander, great steerer - President Marshall!": “影片開頭，是美國總統吉姆·馬歇爾同誌在全國政治思想宣傳工作會議上發表重要講話。馬歇爾指出：‘我們的政治思想宣傳工作，必須以科學的理論武裝人，以正確的輿論引導人，以高尚的精神塑造人，以優秀的作品鼓舞人。’馬歇爾強調：‘我們要不斷培養和造就一代又一代有理想、有道德、有文化、有紀律的資本主義新人。’馬歇爾指出：‘我們的資本主義四有新人要在建設有美國特色的資本主義的偉大事業中發揮有力的思想保證和輿論支持作用。’而《空軍一號》就是活學活用馬歇爾思想，做好政治宣傳工作的典範。然後影片進入正題。馬歇爾總統遇到恐怖分子劫機，警衛員掩護馬歇爾總統從逃生艙逃生，但馬歇爾總統在危機關頭，選擇和人民共患難，馬歇爾總統發揮他那超乎常人的智慧和勇氣，和恐怖分子、蘇修頭子以及國內走社會主義道路的當權派鬥智鬥勇，絕不向反動派妥協，為了人民幸福，他冒著不惜犧牲自己和家人的危險，讓普通群眾先走，但是，人民不會允許他犧牲自己的生命，馬歇爾總統犧牲了，誰來帶領世界資本主義革命？在美國人民和歐洲人民的齊心協力支持下，馬歇爾總統終於戰勝所有的敵人，重新回到了人民身邊！電影成功地表現了馬歇爾總統與共產主義、蘇修社會帝國主義、右傾投降主義、右傾逃跑主義、左傾盲動主義、左傾機會主義、和國內走社會主義道路的當權派以及恐怖分子……等反動分子堅決鬥爭並最終取得勝利的光輝事績。而且，影片還充分證明了馬歇爾總統‘一切恐怖分子都是紙老虎’的英明論斷。同時，美國人民通過影片也可以看到，共產主義亡我之心不死，必須時刻提高警惕，保家衛國，備戰備荒，貫徹‘以石油為綱’的方針，同時在民主自由大旗下繼續輸出顏色革命。總而言之，影片反映了馬歇爾總統偉大思想的光芒萬丈，馬歇爾思想就是大海中的一盞明燈，指引美國和世界資本主義民主革命的方向。影片一經播出，立刻在人民群眾中獲得了熱烈的反響，取得了物質文明與精神文明雙豐收。偉大的導師，偉大的領袖，偉大的統帥，偉大的舵手馬歇爾總統萬歲！”

In a nutshell, the essence of Marxism is nothing that encourages you to create, to blaze the trail, to study science and technology hard, or teaches you to be Beethoven, to be da Vinci, to be Shakespeare, to be Michael Jackson, to be Tu Youyou and Yuan Longping, or guides you to upgrade and optimize the production line in factories or to research hybrid rice in farmlands, or inspires you to pick up hoes and sickles to crop, to harvest, to conquer great nature, and to climb the paramount of science, but everything that instigates you to damage, to destroy, to break into those landlords' homes, Thomas Edison's home, Bill Gates' home, Steve Jobs' home, Mark Zuckerberg's home, and other capitalists' homes to raid, to rob, to smash, and instigates you to go with "class struggle" and to "destroy the old world". Marx's stuff doesn't bring us human beings with creation, peace, love, and prosperity, but with feud, poverty, disaster, havoc, as well as endless insanity of so-called "man-kill-man fun". Good thing is, President Xi pointed out at a press conference in Europe - any tangerine planted in the south of River Huai is tangerine whilst the same thing transplanted to the north of River Huai becomes bitter orange. Well said, well thought of! As such, I think he is trying to tell the whole world that Marxism from the Western World - south of River Huai, doesn't apply to this Eastern land - north of River Huai. I will be much gratified when I witness the moment that our country eventually bids farewell to that German Jew."
“……我實在搞不懂二十一世紀的中國幹嘛要把一個出生在嘉慶年間的德國猶太人的理論拜為意識形態的聖經。黨教育我們，鴉片戰爭以後的東西是近代史，鴉片戰爭以前的都是古代史。那麽，也就是說，到現在為止，我們中國人還在拿著一個出生在古代的西方人的東西作為指導原則來發展我們今天的中國，而全世界早就跟馬先生說再見了。你們搞得懂我們為啥還這樣嗎？不好意思，我搞不懂。現在，全世界就像一個小村子，大家都生活在一起。感謝互聯網。今天，中國人民睜開了眼睛。那我們就來看一下這個世界，看一看馬克思主義現在怎麽樣。
馬克思的祖國——德國：德意誌人民唾棄了它；馬克思的族裔祖國——以色列：猶太人民唾棄了它；馬克思屍體埋葬地之國——英國：英吉利人民唾棄了它；馬克思的鬥爭哲學試驗場——蘇聯：無論擁有多少的核導彈、飛機、坦克、大炮，都無法阻止俄羅斯人民、立陶宛人民、愛沙尼亞人民、拉托維亞人民、烏克蘭人民、摩爾多瓦人民、亞美尼亞人民、阿塞拜疆人民、格魯吉亞人民、白俄羅斯人民、哈薩克斯坦人民、吉爾吉斯坦人民、塔吉克斯坦人民、土庫曼斯坦人民、烏茲別克斯坦人民唾棄它。更不用說東歐那些本來就是在刺刀下建立起來的馬克思主義的國家了。
簡而言之，馬克思的東西，不是教你去創造、去開拓、去努力學習科學技術，不是教你去做貝多芬、去做達·芬奇、去做莎士比亞、去做邁克爾·傑克遜、去做屠呦呦、袁隆平，不是要你去工廠改進和革新生產線，不是教你去田間對水稻進行品種改良，更不是教你去拿起鋤頭、鐮刀去開荒、去耕耘、去收獲、去征服大自然、去攀登科學的高峰，而是教你去破壞、去跑到人家地主家裏、人家愛迪生家裏、比爾·蓋茨家裏、喬布斯家裏、紮克伯格等等這些資產階級家裏去鬥、去搶、去砸，教唆你“搞階級鬥爭、砸碎舊世界”。馬克思的東西給人類帶來的不是創造、和平、友愛、繁榮，而是仇恨、貧困、災難、毀滅，是無窮無盡的所謂“人鬥人的其樂無窮”。
幸好，習主席在訪歐記者招待會中指出，橘生淮南為橘，淮北則為枳。說得好，想得妙！由此可見，我覺得習總是想告訴全世界人民，來自淮南——西方世界的馬教並不適用在淮北——這片東方的土地。見證我們國家終將跟德國猶太人道別的那一刻，我會不勝欣慰。”
