In a recent article published on the website Wu You Zhuang, a critic has accused renowned Chinese scientist and intellectual He Zuo Xiu of being a political agitator and extremist throughout his career. The critic, who goes by the pen name Clear Winds AA, argues that He’s political tactics have evolved over the years but remain unchanged, from extremist left to extremist right.
He Zuo Xiu, now 97 years old, is known for his sharp criticism of various political and social issues. However, the critic points out that He’s behavior has been controversial throughout his life, as evidenced by his actions 69 years ago in 1955.
According to the critic, He Zuo Xiu was a member of the Chinese Communist Party and a civil servant at the time. He is accused of launching a political attack against renowned architect Liang Sicheng by accusing him of opposing the party’s general line in an article titled Liang Sicheng’s Architectural Theory Is a Direct Violation of the General Line.
The critic argues that Liang Sicheng’s disagreements with the mayor of Beijing over the preservation of certain old buildings and the reconstruction of the city’s old district were not a sign of opposition to the party’s general line but rather a difference in urban development approaches. However, He Zuo Xiu used his influence to label Liang Sicheng’s views as a violation of the general line and the national socialist industrialization policy.
The critic points out that the accusation could have potentially destroyed Liang Sicheng’s career, as such labels were often used to isolate and suppress individuals in the past.
The critic also notes that He Zuo Xiu’s political tactics have evolved over the years, but his approach remains the same. He is accused of labeling opponents as leftists, extremist leftists, and leftist agitators, regardless of the issue at hand.
The critic argues that He Zuo Xiu’s current political stance is extremist right and suggests that his actions in the past and present share a common thread: the use of political labels to attack and suppress opponents.
The critic calls on He Zuo Xiu to take a break and suggests that his actions are tiring, especially at his advanced age.
The article has sparked a debate among readers, with some defending He Zuo Xiu’s right to express his opinions and others criticizing his tactics.
In conclusion, the critic’s article highlights the ongoing debate over He Zuo Xiu’s political tactics and their impact on Chinese society. The question of whether He Zuo Xiu’s actions are constructive or harmful remains a topic of contention.
