我们都知道，每个中国的孩子从记事起就开始接受系统化的教育，这种教育不仅仅是为了传授知识，更重要的是在潜移默化中塑造他们的思想和价值观。从幼儿园的红歌开始，到小学的红领巾，再到中学的共青团，最后到大学的入党，一步步将共产党的理念深深植入每个孩子的心中。这种教育方式不仅向每个中国人灌输忠诚于党的思想，还通过灌输历史仇恨，将对于外国的敌对情绪根植于每个中国人内心深处。本文将略微探讨这种洗脑教育的具体形式及其对中国人思想和行为的深远影响。
每个中国人自打“出厂”以来，都毫无例外地接受着共产党流水线式的洗脑教育。从幼年起，我们便被教导“爹亲娘亲没有毛主席亲”，“没有共产党就没有新中国”，“东方红太阳升，中国出了个毛泽东”等等。诸如此类歌颂共产党的红歌数不胜数，几乎任何一个还没识字的孩子都可以朗朗上口地唱几句红歌。
等到孩子上了小学，鲜红的红领巾便迫不及待地缠上幼嫩的脖子，时刻提醒着孩子要学习先辈，忠党爱国。在2000年代那会儿，如果上学忘记带红领巾，将是一种很严肃的错误，会被教师体罚甚至要求回家去取。上了初中后，红领巾被取下来了，接踵而来的又是共青团的宣誓，之后大学则是入党。在中国人建立三观最重要的十年里，共产党从未有一天缺席，相反，他们始终牢牢占据着孩子心中至关重要的位置，不厌其烦地教导每一个孩子要爱党爱国。共产党的宣传从不避讳这一点，永远是把党放在国前面，而经历了数千年封建专制统治的中国人也丝毫不以为奇，只觉得理所当然。
我们在中国长大的年轻人，绝大多数的童年都经历过这样一件事：当我们深夜在家中哭闹不休时，我们的父母或长辈有时会吓唬我们——如果再哭闹，外面的豺狼或者鬼怪便会来将你抓走。这种恐吓对于幼时的孩子往往分外有效，而共产党也正是采取了与这种恐吓如出一辙却百试不爽的方法，从另一种角度完成了对中国人的洗脑。
一方面，中国人经过几千年来的儒家思想驯化，骨子里期盼的就是君圣臣贤的专制“盛世”；另一方面，中国近代百年来被侵略的屈辱历史也是共产党施行仇恨教育的绝佳背景。中共在几十年间拍摄、出版了数以千计歌颂美化自身的电影、电视剧以及书籍，在这些作品中大肆丑化、甚至妖魔化它的敌人们，刻意引导每一个中国人去仇恨外国。“帝国主义亡我之心不死”，这一句中国人耳熟能详的名言和“没有共产党就没有新中国”一样，都是中共通过几十年如一日的洗脑教育烙印在每一个中国人内心最深处的刻印。
这种仇恨与忠诚双管齐下的洗脑模式，塑造了今天中国人在面临国际事件时的矛盾心态。一方面，中国人对中共统治下的中国非常自豪，中国的民族凝聚力和国家认同感远超世界上任何一个民主国家，这也是中共施行洗脑教育的根本目的。但另一方面，大多数中国人因为受到长期的洗脑而缺乏国际视野与思维的开放性，看待问题缺乏缜密的逻辑和理性的思考。比起现代化国家的国民，他们倒更像是二战时期日本军国主义的余孽。中国的社交媒体上充斥着诸如“核平台湾”、“东京大屠杀”之类的暴论，而中共出于政治需要，对这类言论往往视而不见，反而积极删除和屏蔽那些本就是少数派的理性发言。
长此以往，当内部矛盾激化到不可调节，文革2.0或是武力侵略台湾只怕是不远了。

“Hatred and Loyalty: The Profound Impact of CCP Brainwashing Education”
We all know that every Chinese child begins to receive systematic education from a very young age. This education is not just about imparting knowledge; more importantly, it subtly shapes their thoughts and values. Starting with the “red songs” in kindergarten, moving on to the red scarves in elementary school, then the Communist Youth League in middle school, and finally party membership in college, the Communist Party’s ideology is deeply ingrained in every child’s heart step by step. This educational approach not only instills loyalty to the Party in every Chinese person but also roots hostility towards foreign nations deep within their hearts through historical hatred. This article will briefly explore the specific forms of this brainwashing education and its profound impact on the thoughts and behaviors of Chinese people.
Every Chinese person, since “leaving the factory,” has been inevitably subjected to the Communist Party’s assembly line-like brainwashing education. From a young age, we are taught slogans like “Parents are dear, but not as dear as Chairman Mao,” “Without the Communist Party, there would be no new China,” and “The East is Red, the Sun rises, China has produced a Mao Zedong.” There are countless such red songs praising the Communist Party, and almost any child who hasn’t yet learned to read can sing a few lines of these red songs.
When children enter elementary school, the bright red scarves eagerly wrap around their tender necks, constantly reminding them to learn from their predecessors and to be loyal to the Party and love the country. In the 2000s, forgetting to wear a red scarf to school was considered a serious mistake, resulting in punishments from teachers or even being sent home to retrieve it. After entering middle school, the red scarf is taken off, only to be replaced by the pledge of the Communist Youth League, followed by Party membership in college. Throughout the most formative decade of establishing their worldview, the Communist Party never misses a single day, always occupying a crucial place in children’s hearts, tirelessly teaching each child to love the Party and the country. The Party’s propaganda never shies away from placing the Party before the country, and the Chinese people, who have endured thousands of years of feudal autocracy, find this completely natural.
Many of us who grew up in China have experienced this: when we cried incessantly at night, our parents or elders would sometimes scare us, saying that if we continued crying, wolves or monsters outside would come and take us away. Such threats are often very effective on young children, and the Communist Party adopts a similar yet foolproof method to complete the brainwashing of the Chinese people from another perspective.
On one hand, after thousands of years of Confucian indoctrination, Chinese people inherently long for a “Golden Age” of benevolent autocracy. On the other hand, the century-long history of humiliation and invasion is the perfect backdrop for the Communist Party to implement hatred education. Over several decades, the CCP has produced and published thousands of movies, TV dramas, and books glorifying itself, while vilifying and even demonizing its enemies in these works, deliberately guiding every Chinese person to hate foreign countries. Phrases like “Imperialism never dies” are as familiar to Chinese ears as “Without the Communist Party, there would be no new China,” both being indelible imprints of the CCP’s decades-long brainwashing education.
This dual approach of instilling hatred and loyalty has shaped the contradictory mindset of Chinese people when facing international events. On one hand, Chinese people are extremely proud of the China under CCP rule, with a sense of national cohesion and identity far surpassing any democratic country in the world, which is the fundamental purpose of CCP brainwashing education. But on the other hand, most Chinese people, due to long-term brainwashing, lack international perspective and open-minded thinking, often viewing issues without logical rigor and rational consideration. Compared to citizens of modernized countries, they are more akin to remnants of WWII-era Japanese militarism. Chinese social media is filled with extreme rhetoric like “nuke Taiwan” or “Tokyo massacre,” and the CCP, for political reasons, often turns a blind eye to such comments while actively deleting and blocking the rational voices, which are already a minority.
In the long run, when internal conflicts become irreconcilable, a Cultural Revolution 2.0 or military invasion of Taiwan may not be far off.
