Chapter 87 Do not impose on others with external publicity

(1967-1970) one Comrade Kang Sheng[1]: This issue deserves attention.I think Anzai's opinion is correct.What do you think, let me know. [2] (November 27, 1967) two Don't do that, it won't work.Different countries have different approaches. [3] (March 7, 1968) three These are imposed, don't do it. [4] (March 12, 1968) Four I have said this many times.External (as well as internal) propaganda should be resolutely and step-by-step reformed. [5] (March 17, 1968) Fives Generally speaking, we should not interfere in the internal affairs of any foreign party (Marxism-Leninism).How they advertise is their business.We should pay attention to our propaganda, and we should not boast too much, and we should not speak inappropriately, so that people seem to have an imposing impression on others. [6]

(March 29, 1968) six Do not use these empty words in the future. [7] (April 6, 1968) seven Such words should not be uttered by the Chinese population. This is the so-called "self-centered" wrong thinking. [8] (May 16, 1968) Eight First, be careful not to impose it on others; second, do not propagate that foreign people's movements are influenced by China. Such propaganda is easy to be used by the reactionaries and is not conducive to the people's movement. [9] (May 29, 1968) Nine The name issue is not relevant and can be deferred. There are many things passed down from the bourgeoisie, such as the republic, engineers, etc., and they cannot all be changed.

This item is delayed. [10] (August 1968) ten Delete some empty words that are off topic.Do not brag to foreigners[11]. (September 1968) eleven Delete Article 11, do not praise yourself with slogans issued in your own name. [12] (September 1968) twelve Please note: Don't brag about yourself in this unrealistic situation in the future. [13] (June 1969) Thirteen As for all foreigners, they are not required to recognize Chinese ideas, but only to recognize the combination of the universal truth of Marxism-Leninism and the specific practice of the country's revolution.This is a basic principle.I have said it many times.As for their other bad ideas besides Marxism-Leninism, they will realize it themselves, and we don't need to talk to foreign comrades as a serious problem.You only need to look at how many times our party has been educated on the wrong line in its history before it gradually got on the right track, and there are still problems today, that is, there are great-power chauvinism internally and externally, which must be overcome.
