Pyongyang, August 13 (KCNA) -- The revolutionary countries and people of the world should wage a vigorous struggle to check the bourgeois ideological and cultural poisoning, deeply aware of its reactionary nature, harmfulness and danger, urges Rodong Sinmun Monday in a bylined article. Bourgeois idea and culture are very dangerous ideological viruses as they make people mentally deranged, the article notes, and goes on: Bourgeois idea and culture gradually penetrate into people's minds to strike their roots and spoil society and make it degenerated. Those countries which were building socialism collapsed overnight because they allowed bourgeois life style, American way of life to prevail in society. Bourgeois ideology and culture are harmful because they benumb people's consciousness of independence and thus reduce them to human scum who think neither of making a revolution nor of doing any work. Their ultimate goal is to obliterate national culture of other countries and thus deprive the people of their national identity. People's revolutionary spirit is bound to be benumbed, once they are infected with bourgeois ideology and culture. If people are entangled in the enemy's moves for bourgeois ideological and cultural poisoning, they will be utterly indifferent to their country. The revolutionary and progressive countries should intensify the combat against the bourgeois ideological and cultural poisoning. It is necessary to firmly prepare the people politically and ideologically, develop national culture and pay special attention to the education of the young people. It is imperative to maintain a high vigilance against even the slightest manifestation of the bourgeois ideological and cultural poisoning and thoroughly combat it. A single step for concession in combating bourgeois ideology and culture is bound to lead to ten, nay a hundred steps for concessions. |
