中国极权政体着意纂改历史/Totalitarian Regime in China purposely distorts the history
身处当代中国，也许能体会到最为无奈的事情：任何时候，你所收到的信息都是处于系统性的监控和有意识的扭曲之中。在公开传播的信息中，所能听到的每一条信息几乎都是经过审核的好的信息。虽然随着信息技术的发展，现在对信息进行监控和篡改的难度在提高，但拥有话语权的阶层也在持续不断地“前进”中。
In contemporary China, the most awkward thing that one experiences might be: whatever information you receive, they are under systematic monitoring and intentional distortion. In the openly disseminated information, almost all information one receives is a censored "good news". With the development of the information technology, it is more and more difficult to censor or to tamper with news, however, the skills of the "Powerful class" is also continuing to improve.

为什么会这样？这并不是道德或者天良沦丧的问题，这样的现象几乎在每一个马克思主义政体或者极权政体都出现了，有着它内在的必然性：对信息的控制是维持极权统治的必要手段。
Why so? This is not the problem of moral hazard. This kind of phenomenon appears almost in every Marxist or totalitarian regime, with its built-in inevitability: the control of information flow is a necessary step to maintain the totalitarian rule.

就中国而言，对过去的历史进行剪裁和修正已经是心照不宣的事实，非常切合胡适曾经说过的话：历史是一个任人打扮的小姑娘。譬如，从公开的渠道，基本不可能找到对1949年以后的重大历史事件的公允解读，所有的材料都具有一个相同的前提：中国共产党是永远正确的，所发生的错误只是前进中的小波折。但是，倘若把不同的事件放在同一个衡量标准下进行比较，却不见得得到和官府的宣传材料一致的结论。
In the case of China, although no one declaims, everyone knows tacitly that the sovran purposely censors/monitors the past history, which is just like what the famous historian Mr. Hu Shi said: History is a little girl to be dressed as one wishes. For example, from the open media, it is almost impossible to find any fair interpretation to great historical events after 1949 when PR China was founded, while all the materials have the same premise: The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is always correct and whatever disasters are just "errors" or "mistakes" in the march to the victory. -- However, once if we compare different events under a unique measuring standard, we may draw different conclusions rather than official ones.

共产党的一言堂，短期内掩蔽了普通民众的视野，而在长期内，造成了统治阶层整体认识的狭窄和头脑的僵化。一言以蔽之，共产党在有意识地剪裁和重塑民众头脑中的历史，但长期下去，结果只会是社会阶层的分裂。只靠表面的口号和时不时搞的小动作是维持不了社会和谐的，如果继续屏蔽对真实历史的认知，社会缺乏对过去的严肃反思，又如何继往开来、更好地发展呢？有老话讲：忘记过去，就意味着背叛。而有意识地篡改历史，岂不就是有意识地背叛？
The CCP autocracy masks the mind of ordinary people in the short term and results in the narrow-mindedness and intellectual rigidity of the ruling class. In short, the Communist Party desires to monitor and reshape the true history in people's minds, which, however, in the long run, will cause the splitting up of the whole social classes. It is far from enough to maintain the social harmony by superficial slogans and random tricks. If the Party continues to shield the whole society from exploring the true history, there will be no serious recollection to the past, then how can our nation carry forward the tradition and better our development? There is an old saying: to forget the past means betrayal. Thus is it a conscious betrayal to falsify the history purposely?
