  >look into the nitty gritty of the cultural revolution, and it's very specific focus on technology As I understand it, the cultural revolution was mainly about young people running amok and victimizing teachers and authority figures. All orchestrated by Mao so he could cling to power. What did it have to do with technology?

  Could you please update your references? China has been run by Mao's enemies for a very long time (likely longer than you've been alive), and the Cultural Revolution was a desperate ploy to consolidate power when the current way of Chinese thinking was growing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticize_Lin%2C_Criticize_Confucius https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticize_Lin%2C_Criticize_Con... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalist_roader https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalist_roader
