1967年1月1日,《人民日报》、《红旗》杂志联合发表经毛泽东审定的元旦社论《把无产阶级文化大革命进行到底》,社论提出“1967年将是全国全面展开阶级斗争的一年”“,将是无产阶级联合其他革命群众,向党内一小撮走资本主义道路的当权派和社会上的牛鬼蛇神展开总攻击的一年”。5 On January 1, 1967, “People’s Daily” and “Red Banner” jointly published the New Year’s Day edict approved by Mao Zedong, “Carrying Through to the End the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution.” The editorial put forth the idea that “1967 will be the year when the class struggle will be launched in all aspects of the country.” “Will be a year when the proletariat will unite with other revolutionary masses and start a general attack on the handful of party members in the capitalist-dominated powerhouse and the social monsters and deities.” 5
