Author and survivor of Mao’s Cultural Revolution Xi Van Fleet told Tucker Carlson that American institutions have been seized by Marxists and are pushing the US toward communism.
In a long interview along with the former Fox News host, Van Fleet described the “full communist revolution” currently unfolding in America that “must be stopped” if the country is to survive.
Van Fleet has lived in the US since 1986, but was born and raised in China during the Cultural Revolution.
At the age of 16, she was sent to work in rural China. After Mao’s death, she was able to go to university, where she studied English.
She has dedicated the past few years to publicly advocating against what she sees as a wave of communist ideology gripping America.
In a lengthy interview with Tucker Carlson, Xi Van Fleet described the “full communist revolution” currently unfolding in America that “must be stopped” if the country is to survive.
Xi Van Fleet’s book, “Mao’s America: A Survivor’s Warning,” is a cautionary text that highlights the ways in which modern America is falling into patterns she first observed in communist China
In her new book, “Mao’s America: A Survivor’s Warning,” she makes numerous comparisons between what she saw as a child and young adult in Mao’s China and what she sees in the U.S. today.
During her interview with Carlson, Van Fleet described an example of the dangerous ideology she believes has spread across America.
Van Fleet explained the progressive use of the words oppressor and oppressed, saying that a communist worldview would lead an individual to believe that everything the oppressed party does to the oppressor “is justified.”
“That includes murder, kidnapping and rape – it’s all justified, just like the Cultural Revolution,” she said. “That’s what’s happening in America today.”
Van Fleet specifically points to the indoctrination that she sees taking place at educational institutions in the US – both higher education and primary and secondary education.
Professors, curricula, and in turn students are embracing Marxist ideology, whose broader societal implication is a “celebration of violence,” such as the countless riots that have erupted across the country in the period following the death of George Floyd and beyond. .
Moreover, the political strife and chaos on college campuses mirror what she saw in China years ago.
Therefore, the most crucial step toward defeating communist ideology in America is regaining control of schools and universities.
Van Fleet states in no uncertain terms that Americans who care about “saving this country for your children and your children’s children” must oppose the communist ideology that now drives everything, from the Critical Race Theory to is taught in primary school classrooms, all the way to DEI. hiring practices of major US companies.
Carlson asked Van Fleet a series of diverse questions during the 45-minute conversation, including the motivation behind the spread of communist ideology
Power, she told Carlson, is the sole goal of those who harness communist ideology to sow chaos far and wide — and the better that is understood, the more effective the resistance effort can be.
“You can’t fight something you don’t understand,” Van Fleet said, underscoring the significance of her new book and not underestimating the power of the Marxist agenda.
Otherwise, she warned, the indoctrinated masses “will destroy the country so that some people can gain complete control of power.”
Importantly, Van Fleet said it is understandably difficult to understand or imagine why Marxist communism is spreading across the country, and who is ultimately responsible for it.
Power, she told Carlson, is the sole goal of those who harness communist ideology to sow chaos far and wide.
The powerful interview came just days after Carlson’s controversial interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin and the death of Kremlin dissident Alexei Navalny last week.
During his interview with Putin, Carlson praised Russia, calling Moscow “so much more beautiful than any city in my country.” He also challenged the foreign leader with questions about the ongoing war against Ukraine and the continued imprisonment of WSJ journalist Evan Gershkovich.
In the wake of Navalny’s death, which many believe was a Kremlin job, Carlson came under increasing criticism for his semi-sympathetic interview.
However, when news of Navalny’s death broke, Carlson told DailyMail.com: ‘It’s horrific what happened to Navalny. The whole thing is barbaric and terrible. No decent person would defend it. What happened to Navalny is horrific. The whole thing is barbaric and terrible. No decent person would defend it.”
