Interview with Chairman Mao

My interview with Chairman Mao

Q. Chairman Mao, what is your goal of the Cultural Revolution?

A. My goal is to make all counter revolutionaries suffer and for revolutionaries to be more powerful. Merchants would over power peasants, and would treat them with disrespect. But now, peasants can overpower merchants. Peasants know have more money, and more freedom to do what they want. I want to change China, and make it a New China.

Q. Why do you want to hurt merchants and landlords, as well as counter revolutionaries so bad?

A. I was born a peasant, and my family wasn’t rich. We couldn’t always afford food and life was really tough. Especially since landlords would torcher us by making us pay constantly more money for rent, and they would even raise the rent. Since I payed , the landlords, and others will know pay. They will either show me respect, or get torcherd by Red Guards.

Q. Why did you come up with the idea to make Red Guards?

A. To stay in power, I needed people who would be loyal to me, and respect me. So I thought of all the other past peasants. Since I helped them become stronger people, they could help me become a stronger person. I felt like they were the perfect people. Like my own personal army. They listened to me, and respected me, and I couldn’t have asked for anyhting more.

Q. What is your biggest fear, that could possibly happen to the Cultural Revolution?

A. My biggest fear, has to be that the Cultural Revolution will get taken over by a different country, and that I will have to either leave China, or get executed. I have worked so hard to make the Cultural Revolution work, and get myself in to this high ranked of a leader. I have gained so much respect over the years, and I have become more powerful every day. So just to see myself getting taken over would be heartbreaking.

Q. Thank you for your time Chairman Mao, because I know that you are a busy man. I have one last question to ask you. If you were to get taken over by another country, what would you do?

A. If I were to get taken over, I wouldn’t back down without a fight. I would send my Red Guards to go and attack the country that was attacking me, and if the country that was attacking me was really strong, and I knew that I was going to lose, I would probably flee the country to North Korea, or maybe Japan. I wouldn’t go to Taiwan because General Chiang fled China and went there. Hopefully nothing like this will ever happen.
