      Getting people to read even short articles is impossible.

      Just be honest with yourself any say that you’re not looking to challenge your orientalist biases, that you just want things to confirm them.

      The communists were the ones who defeated fascism in ww2, Mao being one of the most important leaders in that fight against japanese fascism. To equate Mao with nazis or the axis powers, who they shed so much blood to defeat, is sickening.

        And you are impartial, saying someone you do not know has an “orientalist” bias. Throwing out pejorative words, linking to lengthy fringe arguments like a Trump supporter telling me to watch Hannity.

        I see you’re defending your heroes by parsing words and cherry-picking books and news and rallying your arguments (and propaganda) to defend them. I expected nothing less from you; it’s exactly the same thing a Trump supporter would do.

        Carry on, comrade. Enjoy yourself. You have the evangelistic fervor of a Baptist preacher.
