Its wild how many people are comfortable caping for Mao in public as opposed to Hitler/Stalin.

semperfitrex.bsky.social•103 days ago

Oh, they're plenty willing to cape for both of them as well on social media.

Plenty of Stalin fans all over social media, and Hitlerites abound on Facebook and Twitter.

What’s the Maoist version of tankie? Starvie?

Forgies? Shovelyards?

TOO SOON

jlet.bsky.social•102 days ago

Leaper?

coreyryung.bsky.social•102 days ago

That is my suggestion as well.

I’m reading “Tombstone” right now so that seems appropriate.

I don’t know if anyone has organized a “historiography of genocidal totalitarianism” starter pack for Bluesky, but Dikotter (“Mao’s Great Famine”) would be on mine. https://www.amazon.com/Maos-Great-Famine-Devastating-Catastrophe/dp/B0D381VWJ2/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?adgrpid=56079283676&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.6gwUUzq8PNU8hNmTBQsyAsSeZsolQa8yLLTfFDFRkLVZ0bL75odW4k_P6eQEyu7OOXdAZA8tv2k46mKi085JQsSbXamPc4MVn3dFwJmqjDQ2NVFDVCVQWFlgOEIwjSClAjP3sgp_LEAsV_kMufGyZgZF-03vesjVliCXpwoxe-JHUjFBvt0yuFMVWXydqgy-Oyf--72-ky78kSRJk23UUw.Qa5QmBobcQyuvNAWV10dGX6K1MR8qodIE0wnAr-hU_w&dib_tag=se&hvadid=664375275327&hvdev=m&hvlocphy=9189435&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=4720307950289357953&hvtargid=kwd-301998926097&hydadcr=22436_13484371&keywords=mao%27s+great+famine&qid=1731892147&sr=8-1

Mao was a very brilliant man who only looked out for himself. He built a huge and hugely dangerous cult following that left his country in chaos for quite a while. No role model whatsoever. Unless you admire dictators who seize power through expert manipulation. Man could easily read people.

What governments are not serial killers in your estimation?

markgaspar.bsky.social•103 days ago

Ones that don’t kill 30,000,000 of their own civilians?

johnmoz.bsky.social•102 days ago

Matt Gaetz also has nothing on Mao when it came to the steady stream of teenage girls in and out of Mao’s bedroom.

dvan.bsky.social•103 days ago

Brother Maoism sounds like an unreal band though.

flashgordon.bsky.social•102 days ago

i think bill burr did a bit about how mao doesn't get enough credit in the "world historic murderer" discussion...

paulframe85.bsky.social•103 days ago

The correct take.

Tankies are mad and bad.

thecleric.bsky.social•103 days ago

I really don’t understand tankies.

You want to argue for communism? I get it. I’d love a system where we pool resources and share the benefits if we can find a way to make it work.

But tying your cause to Mao or Lenin or Stalin? Why? Those folks had CLEAR and MAJOR downsides.

Since you're Christian, you might be interested in the Bruderhof.

lemomyfreshpine.bsky.social•96 days ago

Christians don't usually read bro

answermancer.bsky.social•102 days ago

Yeah, like me for instance, I'm in favor of Luxury Gay Space Communism meaning basically Star Trek, but that requires a post scarcity society first of all

Also it's basically completely unrelated to the tankie variety

The mass graves are a necessity for them.

I’ve read a few of the books about the US opening to China, and the most irritating feature is the tendency of Kissinger and others to talk about Mao as some sort of misguided deep thinker, as opposed to a murderous thug
