During the Cultural Revolution in China (1966-1976), intellectuals, perceived counter-revolutionaries, and those associated with traditional culture were primarily targeted. This included teachers, artists, and members of the Communist Party who were seen as insufficiently loyal to Mao Zedong's vision. Many were publicly humiliated, imprisoned, or faced violent persecution. The movement aimed to eradicate old customs, culture, habits, and ideas, leading to widespread societal upheaval.
