mao was great. Cry about it
Lol, that's they funniest joke on this page.
what do you know about chinese revolution and chinas history?
That Mao was a Fuck up that got more of his own countrymen killed then he did during the Civil War for starters.
Source: Trust me bro
Libtards cant help rewriting history as to minimize imperialist crimes
Or you can ignore Chinese history and spout the crap the CCP talks about like a ml tard
Modern CCP is anti mao, dimwit
yah thats why they have statues of him everywhere, you really are dumb.
Lol. Whats this logic
If Mao was a fuck up, how come China is currently raping the USA in the World Stage? His Great Leap Forward worked.
not american, and also mao had little to do with any of china achievements, itd likely have achieve more if hed died off after the war but sadly he didnt.
Ok, my question still stands: If Mao fucked up so bad with its Great Forward Leap, which was done to catch up with countries like the US, and as you can see, it succeeded, China already surpassed America regardless of what your coping mechanism says; how is that a fuck up? Sure, the transition was costly and bloody, but so was America's foundation. It exterminated so many native cultures, Mao did not do that, and also, Xi is not a pedophile like Trump. Where is the fuck up, exactly?
And that claim you made, it's so childish. It's a nothingburger. "If he died, Chinese would had achieved more." How? What makes you say that? You are Dr. Strange seeing all the possible outcomes or something?
dude multi millions died, thats not a success, if i kill off half my nation, the rest would of course live better lives without the added stress of supporting those people. its triage rebranded as innovation.
So did many natives in America just so you could end supporting a country ran by a pedophile. What? That one was noble? "They were too violent and backwards with their tech, they did them a favor by conquering them and killing them all"?
not an american retard, also like china hasn't been doing the same thing to its own natives, go back to ml if your going to be this stupid
"Not an american" is not something that works anymore. Are you that ashamed of being lumped with the people you support? You can be a MAGA and not be an American. There are plenty of MAGAs here in Mexico, so many American Exceptionalists who still cocksuck the USA. Who think Americans and Europeans are "premium human beings, cleaner, more intelligent, more classy, I wish I was them, lived with them."
Hey, they did that to themselves at least, not others like you did. You are nothing but imperialist cancer that will be soon removed.
I don't belong in ML because I criticize China and I HATE Russia. Just here, your criticisms about China are the wrong and dumbest ones. There's a lot of shit you can target that'd actually make people hate China for real, but instead, what you are doing, is giving half-truths which people later complete and realize you lied to them, so. You are only increasing blind support for China, not a smart critique of it. Keep it up, though. Do not change the way you are. You are perfect for us, bye-bye, demon.
Oh god, a Canadian who is happy to be USA's hat, lol.
Those claims about the Uyghur literally came from pro-Israel directives in the UN, which nobody has validated as official either. You sound like the typical American Exceptionalist here in Lemmy, there are three of them who are so avid with messages like yours:
@FiniteBanjo - Almost 8k comments, 2 accounts, joined 8 months ago~
@UnderpantsWeevil - 24k comments, 1 account, joined 3 years ago~
@SatansMaggotyCumFart - Almost 15k comments, 9 accounts, joined 3 years ago~
Go see those guys' profiles. You sound like them now. They are prime examples of people who benefit the Jeffrey Epstein Class with their heavy American Exceptionalism.
It is SatansMaggoty the one who is obsessed with the Uyghur (which you did not even write properly. "Ugears"? Was that autocorrected?). How come a random Mexican like me has a better grammar, man? No way. Are you even well-read at all? Do you read about History and Psychology every day like I do? Or just consume headlines from social medias?
Mao's writings on epistemology (on practice, on contradiction, where do correct ideas come from, & on the correct handling of contradictions among the people) are incredible, and I think everyone should read them. Especially the first two!
Those poor sparrows though 😔
total sparrow destruction
Go back to .ml where you belong
Avg liberal after running out of facts.
Do you understand why we call you tankies? Because I feel like the tanks are a pretty big thing to ignore.
Because you are capitalist imperialists. Do you think I care?
Bro, we can smell your unwashed narcissism from here.
And of course you care. You care most of all about what others think of you. You just pretend not to care because you're emotionally (and maybe literally) a teenager.
You have to be a teenager to care about being labeled something by a stranger living lavish life in first world
About the tanks? You ought to.
Ok imperialist
Because you are MAGAs. Blue or red, light or heavy, doesn't matter, you're literally using a word right-wing "MAGAs" from back then created and abused.
Every single American I have spoken to about Mao, they always paint him as a cartoonishly evil guy who would wake up every morning with an insatiable desire to kill thousands of his own people for no good reason at all, just being evil.
What caused the deaths were the exaggerated quotas that left no food to the peasants. Mao was lied by his piers, because admitting defeat was dangerous to them, but he still found out and reduced those quotas, it was just too late by then.
No one is perfect and flawless, but, the way you paint China or Mao is the same way you have painted Muslims and Arabs as "genetically-born evil terrorists that deserve to die," that hate America "for no reason." You are doing the exact same shit with China, because they kicked you and Britain's ass. They actually managed to become a behemoth, something you don't want anyone to do, hence the reason you are currently killing a bunch of children in Iran, "so they don't get a nuke and become more independent from us" or getting over 30,000+ innocents of us, Mexicans, killed every year with the Iron River. Add another 20,000+ if you count the depression, misery, poverty and silent cardiovascular and neurological diseases an environment like that causes in the poorest and most vulnerable.
You do that to keep us filled with fear, so we work for you for cents an hour, cheap hand labor. That's what you are. You know Mexico has the lands to become an agricultural super power, same with its oil reserves which you already frackled and left us with all the mess frackling does, you simply don't want us to succeed. You pay us a sixth of the salary you pay the average American worker, just for being Mexican. Working as a software engineer from home, same results, same effort, same everything, except the salary, we and Indians and so on are being exploited by American worms.
So, for so long, I used to believe American propaganda about Asia. Ever since I was a kid I noticed you only talked negatively about it all the time. Their air contamination, their overpopulation, their exploitation, you only showed the bad, never the good. I had to go read and find out myself, and what I found out, was just another fabricated attempt to create a similar movement as Islamophobia in the USA, but toward Asians: Sinophobia.
That's literally America's strongest and only talent: Their ability to turn people into racists. Just look at you, you probably cannot even properly explain why you hate China. If your only responses are "cuz they communists, authoritarians" you are literally a MAGA.
Damn, that's a lot of assumptions about my beliefs based on absolutely jack shit.
Today I learned that I
And that you're so good at reading people that you deduced all of that from me saying Mao was bad because he deployed tanks against his own citizens.
You really think everyone one centimeter to the right of you is a singleminded liberal monolith, don't you?
https://youtu.be/wmVkJvieaOA
You told someone to "return to .ml where you belong."
You literally assumed their entire profile/personality with one single comment or opinion.
See? MAGA behavior. Self-projection, accusing others of what you yourself do... Man... You just proved me right. Gracias!
Thanks to you, more and more people, including Americans, are feeling a lot less shame for openly supporting people like Mao or China. You conditioned them for decades that supporting China, or say the Middle East, "automatically makes you a traitor or a terrorist." It feels pretty scary to share these pro-Asian thoughts with any American, because you know they will always react with verbal violence no matter what. But shit is finally coming to an end, thanks to people like you. Keep it up, please. Keep telling people that China is super evil and bad without ever explaining how, or when you do explain how, you do always do it in a way that makes you sound like Trump whenever he speaks about "Chaynnna," lol. All paranoid. The same sentiment about "Iran getting a nuke" is what you have for China, "we cannot allow them to become the most powerful country in the world or they will kill us," it is exactly the same shit. America's racism fueled the paranoia that pretty much buried the country underground in just 250 years or so after its birth. I don't know if Humanity has ever seen such a big, yet younger nation die before like that. You did not last shit, brother.
I meant where your ideas are tolerated, dipshit. I thought it was obvious that Lemmy instances aren't analogous to real world nationalities, on account of how it takes 20 seconds to create an account on a different instance. Guess I was wrong.
Also, today I learned that disliking Mao, who died before I was born, because of the tanks thing means I hate China now and forever. The two are completely inextricable.
So, you want to protect your little bubble of an alternate reality too? MAGA behavior. I am also critical of China and its censorship, excessive strictness, its machievalism, I am willing to turn against them as soon as they show similar patterns as America.
Mao had nothing to do with those tanks. Mao also "broke up" with the USSR in 1960. Lowkey lasted 10 years only. Mao's China was strongly opposed to the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia, yet you lump them together with that word. I am done here, goodbye.
Me too. Go to hell.
MAGAs like you are killing over 30,000+ innocents in my country every year. Add another 20,000+ if you count the suicides and diseases caused by the depression, misery, poverty, pain, suffering and so on an environment like that causes. And you are still coming here trying to convince people like me that China is the greater enemy, lol. I am going to Heaven, bro. You are not. I am the one who is angry at actual injustice, showing real passion for the innocent. You, in the other hand, are giving your all for the Jeffrey Epstein Class.
My loyalty belongs to Humanity, never a country or a religion. Yours clearly still belongs to a country, which is sad. God sends people like that to hell, because he only wants those who are capable of loving the entire world equally no matter what. You will be sent to hell to experience all that pain your brothers and sisters experienced, and you ignored or didn't do enough for. I am at least doing the bare minimum and keeping these topics alive, I am literally the only motherfucker in the entire Internet still talking about these, because I will never forget them nor stop thinking about those victims that could have lived like we are right now. Even if he gave me a harsh voice to communicate that, he won't care. He has done worse himself after all. There's Genesis 6:7, remember?
"5 The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. 6 The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. 7 So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.”
I am not religious, I hate religions. I wish people learnt that they don't need them to be good people anymore. Shit only breeds elitism and dumbfuckery among the dumbest extremists. It gets used as an excuse by some to commit heinous crimes. It's a layer I wish was removed to make conversations about morality easier, but, whatever, good luck out there.
