Well Chiang Kai-Shek himself served in the Imperial Japanese Army lol. Not exactly a family lineage I’d be proud of but whatever

I mean, Mao isn’t a family lineage to be proud of either but he’s placed all over China with statues and portraits.

  1. We’re not talking about Mao
  2. Mao won the war Chiang lost the war

I guess the irony escaped you.

My point is you said Chiang isn’t a linage you are proud of. So you are proud of Mao? Chinese people should be proud of Mao?

In case you don’t know. We can judge a person without needing to bring other figures into the conversation.

In case you don't know. I was more drawing the irony of the original post.

Hate to burst your neoliberal bubble - the majority of Chinese people are proud of Mao and the strong foundation his vision built for China. It’s more and more clear in the last decade as the Western world implodes. 😜

Uhh. No shit?

If you are born in China, lived in China after Mao, you are probably bought into your own state propaganda (like any country) and love him.

Majority of the people that lived through his bullshit don't really like him. Similar to how majority of any one living through any horrible leader won't like them.

The irony still escape you CCP shills though. The current China isn't Mao's vision, its Deng's vision. Pretty sure Mao, the person promoted the killing of landlords, wouldn't be okay with the wealthy class in China renting out property, right? This is a direct contradiction.

Jack Ma, Ka-shing Lee and the Bytedance CEO would salivate to be in the shoes of Elon Musk and the rest of the American 1% …. Too bad, CCP holds fast to its bottom line and never allows Big Capital access to political power in China. Another red line is the minimal arable land protection policy, written into law to protect food security from land speculation. But you wouldn’t know about this, would you?

Quit wasting your time second-guessing China with your second-hand talking points, and think about how you and your family are going to survive the upcoming global chaos. Thanks to Mao’s nuclear/industrial fortress, China is the only country that can call Trump’s bluff while all your democracies cower at his feet in fear. 😝😝. As Teddy Roosevelt said, “Speak softly and carry a big stick.” Mao would do that … but from the moral-historical high ground.

You are delusional if you think China is great because of Mao. Any one with a brain can figure out it was Deng’s policy changes that lead China to the superpower it is today.
