Happy day. Young Communists dragged ode to February 1948, a whirlwind of criticism came
« You keep one of the highest respect for this happy and great day of the Czechoslovak working people, » the young Communists appeal to the public in connection with the period photograph of the Communist leader Klement Gottwald and the emblem of the Communist Party.
Their unsigned Facebook post has triggered many majority of critical reactions. And besides warning a number of spelling mistakes, later repaired, it was mostly due to political mindset.
It is similarly evaluated by political scientist Lukáš Vomlela from the Faculty of Public Policy of the Silesian University in Opava.
“I consider this preview very problematic. It is a celebration of an event that has led to more than forty years of non -freedom, persecution of political opponents and closure of Czechoslovakia to the world, ”said the political scientist.
The most beautiful event? He is very far away
He added that February 1948 is really far from being objectively evaluated as one of the most beautiful events of our history. According to him, the statement suggests that in the case of young Moravian -Silesian Communists, the traditional attitudes of the Communist Party are playing « a very important value system that they do not want or cannot criticize. »
Vomlel also captivated the conclusion of the post, where the authors mention the unity of the nation and that the winning February reportedly showed, « that we are Slavs, one blood and that we have to hold together, and not to hate and kill each other. »
« It is a statement that is rather a nationalist appeal, an element that the Communists also use, » the political scientist said.
25. February also on the day of the Parisian's martyrdom
For example, there was a reminder in the reactions that February 25 is also the anniversary of the Parishr Josef Toufar from 1950 by the Communists. On the other hand, another reaction with the contribution agrees with the reference to the victims of the « wars of the US -induced ».
The regional chairman of the Communist Party Josef Babka did not know about the contribution until the question of MF DNES. « But now I will read it now, » he said, saying that a number of myths were emerging about the events of 1948. « For example, I disagree when it is written that it was a coup, » he said.
He said the Association of Regional Communists that the KSCM is not subordinate. « There are our members and other left -wing young people, » he pointed out.
