"The CCP makes an exhibition of “heroic” examples to encourage people to sacrifice for the Party.
When Zhang Side died working in a kiln to produce opium, Mao Zedong praised his death as
being “heavy as Mount Tai [5].” In those frenzied years, “brave words” such as “Fear neither
hardship nor death” and “Bitter sacrifice strengthens bold resolve; we dare to make the sun and
moon shine in new skies” gave aspirations substance amidst an extreme shortage of material
supplies."
