Answer:

The Chinese Communist party harassed and tortured people who were against Mao's ideas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mao was a tyrant, and he was extreme towards anyone that he considered as a threat to himself or the communist ideology. He did not thought twice before sending people to harass, torture, imprison, and murder people that were not seen fondly by him.
