  • This is an anti-Government song written and composed by Li Zhi, a famous anti-Government artist and the same person who wrote "The People Don't Need Freedom" (人民不需要自由). It was written for the album "Has Man a Future?" (这个世界会好吗) and is banned in China.
    A few notes on translation:
    "天黑动动手"/"Move your hands at night" may be an euphemism for - Denging your Xiaoping, if you catch my drift.
    The song refers to Mao Zedong by his courtesy name, Runzhi. To avoid confusion, I just translated it as "Doctor Mao"
    This is a pre-Covid song, so the lyric about "white-clothed hospital angels" has nothing to do with Covid, however it felt appropriate to use the background image I used.
    If not immediately obvious, the "They" in question is the CCP.
    不要核酸,要吃饭!不要封控,要自由!不要谎言,要尊严!
    不要文革,要改革!不要领袖,要选票!不做奴才,做公民!

    "The Promise" and "Crazy Stone" are two Chinese movies.

      There was no other future than this because capitalism is simply a more efficient mode of production, especially when contrasted with mLMAOism. There’s a reason why literally every nation who tried central planning has had to loosen up a bit for their economy to grow, especially in the case of ML nations. Either China would remain behind under the Iron Rice Bowl or it would flourish, and flourish it has. Those with more natural skills make more, with some lag and error and the occasional graft here and there.

      The fact you boiled this down into a weird tautology says you have some major problems in the reading comprehension department.

    People like Li Zhi do not want equality, but privileges like those people he wrote in his songs. Given the power, Li Zhi would be more autocratic and corrupted than his predecessors. Besides, Li Zhi is far from an iconoclast who criticizes injustice and inequality globally. His vision is pretty limited to China only, more specially, CCP only, which is a shame.
