Polemic on General Line of International ... - From Marx to Mao

The leaders of the CPSU have completely negated Stalinand painted the first dictatorship of the proletariat and socialistsystem as dark and dreadful. What is this if not anti-Soviet?The leaders of the CPSU have proclaimed the abolition ofthe dictatorship of the proletariat, altered the proletariancharacter of the CPSU and opened the floodgates for capitalistforces in the Soviet Union. What is this if not anti-Soviet?The leaders of the CPSU seek U.S.-Soviet co-operation andtirelessly fawn upon U.S. imperialism, and have thus disgracedhe great Soviet Union. What is this if not anti-Soviet?The leaders of the CPSU pursue the policy of great-powerchauvinism and treat fraternal socialist countries as dependencies,and have thus damaged the prestige of the Sovietstate. What is this if not anti-Soviet?The leaders of the CPSU obstruct and oppose the revolutionarystruggles of other peoples and act as apologists for imperialismand neo-colonialism, and have thus tarnished theglorious internationalist tradition of Lenin’s Party. What ishis if not anti-Soviet?In short, the actions of the leaders of the CPSU havebrought deep shame upon the great Soviet Union and the CPSUand seriously damaged the fundamental interests of the Sovietpeople. They are anti-Soviet actions through and through.Naturally, in these circumstances, the Chinese CommunistParty and other Marxist-Leninist Parties and Marxist-Leninistsare bound to subject the revisionist and divisive line of theleaders of the CPSU to serious criticism for the purpose ofdefending the purity of Marxism-Leninism and the unity ofthe international communist movement and upholding theprinciple of proletarian internationalism. We oppose only therevisionist and divisive errors of the leaders of the CPSU. Andwe do so for the sake of defending the CPSU founded by Leninand safeguarding the fundamental interests of the SovietUnion, the first socialist country, and of the Soviet people.How can this be described as anti-Soviet?329
