Eliminating Political Opposition

Mao’s earliest use of violent repression came in the Futian Incident (1930), when he ordered the torture and execution of thousands of Red Army troops accused of disloyalty. This set a precedent for internal purges within the party.
After 1949, Mao launched campaigns against counter-revolutionaries, targeting former KMT members, landlords, religious figures, and suspected dissidents. Over 700,000 people were executed between 1950 and 1952 according to official records.
Public struggle sessions were staged across the country, where individuals were forced to confess under humiliation, often followed by arrest or execution. These were used to instill fear and break opposition.
The anti-rightist movement (1957-1959) was triggered by backlash to the Hundred Flowers Campaign. Over 500,000 people were labelled as rightists and subjected to imprisonment, exile, or re-education through labour.

Mass Campaigns as Instruments of Fear

The Three Antis Campaign (1951) targeted corruption but was used to purge CCP bureaucrats who were suspected of disloyalty.
