近代歷史上共產黨內部殘酷的自相殘殺運動莫過於肅反運動。 最厲害的是蘇聯共產黨, 幾百萬人被流放西伯利亞(多數死亡),直接殺害一百多萬人。 除了蘇聯共產黨、東歐的和中國的也發生過多次肅反和清黨運動。 這種內部殘殺成為世界範圍呢共產黨的特色運動。 是一種共性。 美國黑幫內部也有類似的屠殺運動。 研究其特徵和共性,不難發現其特點是:封閉性組織,恐怖統治,高度集權,嚴厲的一致性維護,等等。 不像開放的和平的民主的組織,內部矛盾通過表決來解決,黑幫和共產黨內部的矛盾無法化解,只有不斷升級,直到爆發。 不談中共早期的肅反運動,就是在奪得天下後,有廬山會議那種爆發式的直接衝突,後來的文革,後來鄧小平奪權抓四人幫。只不過因為時代進步了,不再是血腥屠殺,而是毛主席時代的路線鬥爭和政治鬥爭,鄧小平政變式的抓捕,再到江澤民時代的以貪腐的刑事罪名抓捕陳希同,習王反腐可以說一場大規模的肅反整黨運動,加上大規模的軍隊改革,可以說習近平有着一種極大的個人野心。當年蘇聯有契卡,現在有中紀委。歷史就是如此的雷同。 再對比黑幫,美國黑幫殺人整肅內部異己分子往往是請吃飯請開會時突然下手。比如當年芝加哥黑幫老大殺不聽話的分舵頭目就是在年度大會上用棒球棍活活把該頭目腦殼打碎。而中國四人幫被抓時就是被叫去開會,汪東興帶槍出現拿下。 陳希同、陳良宇、薄熙來以及後來的徐才厚郭伯雄等都是被叫去開會而一進入會場被持槍警衛拿下。 和黑幫手段如出一轍。 看西方世界所謂民主,多少明爭暗鬥輿論喧囂,但至少是比較和平的、比較公開的競爭,當年小布什和戈爾沒有打起來大開殺戒,現在希拉里和川普也沒有血流成河。儘管缺點很多,但民主競爭畢竟是一種更加高級的人類文明活動形式。 =============== 前天,美國著名NPR媒體有專題報道海航購買紐約州一個破爛酒店,有洗錢嫌疑。 現在海航已經成了西方媒體中的明星了。 http://www.npr.org/sections/money/2017/10/27/560407035/episode-802-the-hotel-at-the-center-of-the-world Episode 802: The Hotel at the Center of the WorldSALLY HELM NOEL KING Twitter 
Marcie LaCerte/NPR Two years ago, one of the biggest companies in the world bought a failing hotel in a tiny rural hamlet in upstate New York. That made Planet Money reporter Noel King, curious. She grew up in the town and worked at the hotel as a teenager. Why, she wondered, would a multi-billion-dollar Chinese company invest in her hometown?
The HNA Group, the company that bought the hotel, started as a small airline in southern China. Today, it employs hundreds of thousands of people, and takes in billions of dollars of revenue. In the past three years, HNA has spent billions buying stakes in Hilton Hotels and Deutsche Bank. They own property on Park Avenue and eight golf courses in Washington State. They own the Radisson hotels, all of them. What's behind HNA's buying spree? Why on earth did the company pay $13.8 million for the Hudson Valley Resort and Spa? And when are they going to fix it up? The answers to these questions lead to us back to China, where government policies encouraged companies to look beyond mainland China and find their fortune in some places you wouldn't expect, including in a tiny New York mountain town.
