席万弗利特认为,美国当前的社会变革与她亲历的中国文化大革命有很多相似之处。她指出,语言的政治正确性、对异见的压制、对历史的歪曲以及对特定群体的妖魔化等现象,都与文革期间的情况如出一辙。她认为,这些现象并非偶然事件,而是蓄谋已久的共产主义革命的一部分,其目标是摧毁美国,让全球主义者掌握权力。她还指出,美国社会中缺乏对共产主义历史的了解,导致许多人未能认清当前局势的严重性。她呼吁美国民众了解历史,积极参与,阻止这场革命。 主持人则主要负责引导访谈,提出问题,并对席万弗利特的观点进行补充和解释。 席万弗利特详细描述了她在中国文革期间的经历,包括大字报的出现、学校停课、红卫兵的暴力行为以及社会秩序的崩溃。她指出,毛泽东发动文革是为了巩固个人权力,利用被灌输思想的年轻人来镇压异见,最终导致了大规模的杀戮和社会动荡。她还讲述了她被下放到农村进行劳动改造的经历,以及文革结束后她如何来到美国。她认为,文革的教训是深刻的,美国人应该从中吸取经验,避免重蹈覆辙。她特别强调了历史的重要性,指出掌握历史才能掌握未来,而当前美国社会对共产主义历史的忽视,正是导致当前危机的重要原因。
