Xi Van Fleet, a survivor of Mao Zedong’s regime of terror in China, is raising concerns about the rising oppression she sees in America today. In a series of tweets, she drew parallels between the tyrannical rule of Mao’s Communist Party and the Democratic Party in America.
Van Fleet, who describes herself as “Chinese by birth; American by choice. Survivor of Mao’s Cultural Revolution. Defender of liberty,” shares a bit of history about Liu Shaoqi, the former president of the People’s Republic of China who laid the groundwork for Mao’s cultural revolution.
“When surrounded by the Red Guard mobs, Liu Shaoqi tried to reason with them: ‘I am at least a citizen. Why am I not allowed to speak?'”
Van Fleet emphasizes that prior to this, Liu himself was persecuting countless people, ruining or ending their lives. By the time Mao came along, Liu had become a victim of the very tyranny that he helped create.
“The Leftists are so committed to the destruction of rule of law & our Constitution,” Van Fleet warns. “They need to prepare to be the victims of their own lawlessness one day!”
Van Fleet is not the first to point out this pattern of wicked people who end up becoming the recipients of the very wickedness they sought to inflict on others. This happened to Liu when Mao took over, and it happened to Haman in the biblical book of Esther. Haman, an official within the court of the Persian empire under King Ahasuerus, came up with a plan to destroy the Jews of Persia, only to end up in the gallows that he himself built for Mordecai and the rest of the Jews.
Van Fleet believes that the same fate awaits the tyrannizing globalists who seek to destroy all that is good and normal. She urges Americans to fight against the rising oppression in their country.
“As if the Republicans are not just as bad as the Democrats,” one commenter noted about how these two political parties are just opposing wings on the same bird.
Van Fleet’s tweets sparked a conversation about the current political landscape in America, with one commenter pointing out that both political parties have contributed to the problem.
“I might remind everyone it was the Republicans that gave us TSA, which shredded the 4th Amendment. It was Republicans that kept us in war in Afghanistan for 20 years. It was Republicans that murdered millions of civilians in Iraq. Republicans are just the controlled opposition in the UniParty.”
Despite this, Van Fleet’s message is clear: America must resist the forces of oppression and tyranny that threaten to destroy the nation. As she tweeted, “I no longer feel this is the America that I arrived in. She has been under attack by Marxism / Communism, that I thought I had escaped from. That’s why I am fighting to save her!”
