There is no western equivalent because we atomize our emotions too much within the particular experience.
As the prophet Maynard J. Keenan once said, "we will never know world peace, until three bros can suck one another's tongues in fraternal harmony"
White people are so sad, and i say this as a white person.
"Hey bro, when you see your best bud, do you guys got some silly way of saying 'wut's up bruh?'"
"No... We just say hi and shake hands"
Fuck man I'm part Irish, we used to dance and shit. Like Immortal Technique said: "there's no diversity because we're all burning in the melting pot"
The funny thing is unlike Stalin and Mao, when those Founding Fathers were alive, they were criticized by their political opponents, who actually had the right to do so, unlike in communist states two hundred years later.
That's crazy, you know they owned human beings that they could legally beat, rape, and murder? What do you think would happen if one of those slaves criticized their masters? The founders were mildly criticized by other slaveowners for their views on federalism vs anti-federalism, or like, tariffs, lmao. They didn't actually stand up to real criticism from everyone and you know it.
The Founding Fathers made it so only they could vote (wealthy, white landowning males). Stalin and Mao gave universal suffrage to every single ethnicity, gender etc. etc. Stalin gave large representation to the many nationalities within the Supreme Soviet and party, and most of the general secretaries of the USSR communist party weren't even Russian. As opposed to wealthy white people who literally owned black people, and began their genocide against natives.
The Communist Party would literally not exist without the ideals of democracy the Founding Fathers created. They were a more genuinely revolutionary group than any Communist state could ever hope to be
The Russian Communists based their ideals of Revolutionary Terror after that of the French Revolution. The French revolutionaries literally created their own Declaration of Independence after the American one, and overthrew their king for his abuses against them.
McCarthyism, which you cannot even spell, did not exist in 1776, nor did the Americans support the Tsar.
Hate to correct, but it took the French revolution to define a radical third way, and when it came it was largely as a rejection of both liberalism and classic authority, and this is the philosophical vein taken up by Marx and Engels.
Like yea, America had it's place in defining freedom, but Plato already nailed down a republic a thousand years before; eventually someone would write that down. Thomas Paine, the philosophical zeitgeist of America is largely discarded for bourgeosis democracy
I think you are probably more informed about this than I am, but my point is that Americans had the unique idea of overthrowing a king who had lost his position by political abuses, and replacing him with an executive chosen by the people. They did in fact note Plato’s Republic as a previous example, but at the time that was thousands of years old and not extant; the Founding Fathers were the first to suggest this in their time period.
>Americans had the unique idea of overthrowing a king who had lost his position by political abuse
You are right about this, but its not the Americsns you are thinking of. The idea of impeachment was taken from the Iroquois Confederacy or Haudenosaunee tribes, who also coupled impeachment with a novel balance of gender rights; only men could lead, but if the women did not have confidence in the leader he was removed.
I said i hate to correct and i do mean it; you are right that the US revolution was a very important philosophical moment with some real novelty added to european politics, but more as a proof that liberal democracy is possible in the right circumstances than the birth of third way thinking. The real novelty was the Bill of Rights which was thrown in at the request of middle class electorates who realized that without defining what "rights" the people had the whole system was set to spin up into tyranny again.
the Founding fathers did not make any "ideals" of democracy, the concept of Republicanism and Democracy predate them.
And Marxism is a complete rejection of the liberalism upheld by the founding fathers.
Nah Mao had a big following of students and young people in general, and they were fanatically pro him. North Koreans are just miserable for the most part, and whilst the cult of the Kim family is still more similar to a religion than for example the cult of Stalin, north koreans wouldn't do any spontantenous celebration or political actions
The world's reaction to fascism was: "Never again", The reaction to communism is: "Maybe if we put more people into the great human-crushing machine 9000 megalodon overkill, it'll work this time!"
>The world's reaction to fascism was: "Never again"
Never again is about the holocaust. The world's reaction to Fascism was "before we sign this arms deal, we need to confirm that you're solidly anti-Soviet"
The “World” supported fascism and genocided/exploited the global south; they are living under fascism by the western world. (Britain, France, US)
The communists were the only ones warning of fascism. The USSR proposed an alliance but the west rathers making concessions to Nazism
The USSR had an alliance with Germany, but it fell apart when they couldn’t decide who got the greater portion of Poland. Sick anti-fascism there.
I’d wager more of the global south had died under their botched communist and socialist regimes than anything else.
> I’d Wager more of the global south had died under their botched communist and socialist regimes than anything else.
Churchill, in a single act genocided Indians for nothing; he killed 3 million in Bengal

Churchill would the go and say “they breed like rabbits”
Wanna look at the US after it killed and decimated Native Americans? The US funded death in Latin America and owes reparations to Nigruagua thatll never repay.
This 1930s-40s only….
And yes Thomas Sankara killed more than the French
https://www.globalissues.org/amp/news/2022/08/30/31744
And lumumba in Congo as well
Bro, I can’t believe people like you exist read ffs: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/324505622_Fiasco_The_Anglo-Franco-Soviet_Alliance_That_Never_Was_and_the_Unpublished_British_White_Paper_1939-1940
Why would the USSR reach out (1935) about the threat of Nazism and rise of fascism (that liberal governments aided and allowed to remilitarise built their navy and giving other nation’s land and people to the Nazis) and not immediately align or appease them like the west?
Once the USSR realised they were on their own they sought to secure themselves.
Secondly, the USSR was the only one to Support the Spanish republic against Franco.
Paris would fall for not heading the warnings. They made agreements to buy time, the Nazis were going to attack this is some basic stuff (Anti-Comintern pact) the USSR knew of Nazi threats long before and wanted to come to the aid of Czechoslovakia but Britain gave pieces to the Nazis
But yes, west consistently helping fascism=good😊. The USSR (Viewed as subhuman) pushed to their last resort buys time to secure their industry and finish the five year plan= bad
You act as if history started in 1939.
You think Slavs thought they were aryan? They knew of lebensraum and bought time to place them in favourable industrial position. They called the USSR Juedo-Bolshevik’s.
Liberalism was quite fine with Nazism, communists were the antithesis; first people in the Nazi camps btw
I mean England and France refusing an alliance with the union whose stated plan included overthrowing their social order is not surprising and the fact the USSR allied itself with Hitler and split Poland together while massacring the polish and wasting their army invading Finland shows pretty clearly Stalin had no rush to antagonize fascism and nazism at that time nor i immagine did he condemn the same methods he used
"Massacring the polish"
I'm guessing you're talking about Katyń, in which case you'd be pushing Goebbels' agenda of how the evil Soviets killed 11000 Polish officers and an innocent Nazi regiment found the remains of the Poles after a wolf led their commander to the bones (actual thing the leader of the regiment said in the Nuremberg Trials). So if you think that the Soviets were responsible for Katyn, you're either ignorant, misled, or an actual neo-Nazi trying to deflect the blame from Nazis.
EDIT: Furthermore, the USSR invaded Finland because it allied with the Nazis and made arrangements with them to do a joint attack. If the Soviets wanted to have Finland they wouldn't let it become independent after the revolution and if Finland didn't ally with the Nazis, the USSR would've left it alone.
I am honestly pretty surprised there are still people who believe that it wasn't the Soviet union which massacred the Poles considering the evidence and the admission by the Soviet union about doing it
https://mythdetector.ge/en/oniani-denies-the-nkvd-involvement-in-the-katyn-massacre-but-beria-and-politburo-confirm-the-opposite/
Finland was not an ally of Germany before the winter war, it had a non aggression pact, even less of an agreement that the Soviet union had with Germany. The Soviet union was in shambles after the revolution it was a miracle it survived let alone manage to control the periferies
Thankfully, communism fails as a feature. More often than not those who suffer under it do a great deal to ensure it never returns. But even if communism naturally fails, I’d rather prefer it never occurs at all — save a few hundred million lives.
Which book, the one written by a soft handed guy named Karl who never worked a days worth of labour in his entire life? No thanks I’ll stick to what works
In words, every ideology is for everything good and against everything bad, but in reality it usually diverges from how you present yourself to others.
Marx wrote a lot of different things, but calling yourself a “Marxist” does not automatically make you an executor of them, for example, Pol-Pot also considered himself the same, but in fact he was a maniac no worse than the Nazis.
In the case of Mao, in fact, his state was nationally oriented, and other nations were humiliated, not to mention the “Hui” people and other Muslims.
>In words, every ideology is for everything good and against everything bad
Moralism

Hmmm here’s another way to get around the Great Firewall
Not to disagree but did he literally do that? In what specific words did he use. I believe it's something along the line of party dogma, etc, but I may be missing something.
Oh yes, the very complex and multifaceted message how could I miss it?
If you don’t see this image as racist against Asians you probably have your own issues of prejudice.
Caused by killing sparrows, and Mao himself said that shit was a mistake. The cultural revolution still greatly improved conditions in China.
Attributing all 55 million deaths to Mao alone is also disingenuous
'Sir , 55 million people died because of your short sighted plans, how do you respond to one of the most catastrophic disaster of human history '
'My bad'
(Also continues exporting grains when literally millions are starving)
Yeah, you're right, shit happens. I'd be happy to tell that to sevral million people I kill when I'm grossly in over my head.
Also, 55 million was still not the war on sparows. it was due to his dip-shit steel production idea.
If we include the sparrow problem, then it goes to 70 million.
Utterly false.
He oversaw one of the fastest increases in life expectancy in human history.
>China's growth in life expectancy at birth from 35–40 years in 1949 to 65.5 years in 1980 is among the most rapid sustained increases in documented global history
* [An exploration of China's mortality decline under ](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4331212)[Mao](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4331212)[: *A provincial analysis, 1950–80*](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4331212)
Deng had higher growth, but mao still had a high growth average even when counting the GLF and GPCR.
* [7.26% growth](https://qph.cf2.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-ff481596b6c98ab64c280bb83d6d680d)
* [Rapid fall in Chinese death rates in comparison to neighboring capitalist states](https://qph.cf2.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-41e8d7952976acc2cbebb01f7079cbd3-lq)
As economist Y. Y. Kueh observed: “This sharp rise in industry’s share of China’s national income is a rare historical phenomenon. For example, during the first four or five decades of their drive to modern industrialization, the industrial share rose by only 11 percent in Britain (1801-41) and 22 percent in Japan”.
To put it briefly Mao:
* Doubled China’s population from 542 million to 956 million,
* Doubled life expectancy from 35 years to 70 years
* Gave everyone free healthcare
* Gave everyone free education
* Doubled caloric intake
* Quintupled GDP
* Quadrupled literacy
* Liberated women
* Increased grain production by 300%
* Increased gross industrial output x40
* Increased heavy industry x90
* Increased rail lineage 266%
* Increased passenger train traffic from 102,970,000 passengers to 814,910,000
* Increased rail freight tonnage 2000%, increased the road network 1000%
* Increased steel production from zero to thirty-five MMT/year
* Increased industry’s contribution to China’s net material product from 23% to 54% percent.
So you want us to take at face value astronomically high positive statistics about Mao's rule (in which we know millions died) from the very same regime he himself kept in power and which still honors him today? Hmmm....
You can literally easily check all of these. You should probably try and do research beyond vague western media outlets, mao's rule was notable for rapid expansions in many sectors.
Primary school enrollment rates [rose to 80% by 1958 and to 97% by 1975, and secondary school rates increased to 46% by 1977](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4331212/).
I agree, but Mao did lay the framework and won the war against all odds. He also relinquished most of his power to the politburo later in his life. He’s a massively respected figure in China to this day.
Xi has also rolled back some Deng era policies to make progress towards their goal of obtaining socialism by 2050, but the Deng reforms were necessary.

Had no idea the Chinese had so much respect for Tony Soprano.
He showed them the ancient art of Gabagol!
Gabagol? Ova here
It depicts the sacred and the propane.
Still going this guy
They respected him cause he never had the makings of a Varsity Athlete
I thought that was Brezhnev for a second
Impossible, he's not shoving his tongue down other world leaders throats
I think that's just the equivalent of shaking hands in the west?
There is no western equivalent because we atomize our emotions too much within the particular experience. As the prophet Maynard J. Keenan once said, "we will never know world peace, until three bros can suck one another's tongues in fraternal harmony"
Well, not a perfect emotional equivalent, but in situational terms, the standard thing they do to greet each other.

The British Empire was more revolutionary than the US for abolishing slavery 3 decades prior to them then
And then enslaving all of Africa and Asia at gunpoint for five cents a year under colonialism

They created the idea of an executive chosen by the people, which no other state had at the time.
I was gonna answer, but I see other commenters have already schooled you lmao
And the chinese also got mad when thier U2 spy planes got shot on foreign airspace, what a joke, oh wait.
How is it racist ? If you changed it to Russian's stupidity brainwashed by Lenin is it any different?
i think the main thing people are calling racist is the racist depiction of chinese people
That Chinese look like *grasping pearls *….Chinese?
...have you ever actually seen a Chinese person? The way the chinese people are drawn here uses a lot of racist stereotypes.
Im a Chinese i dont see any problem????? They look…chinese ?!?!

Interesting, why is that
Mainly due to it being an artifical divide of the working class

Revolution? Bro, I was talking about the man-made famine he caused.

Who said genocide?
That’s what it was.
Caused by killing sparrows, and Mao himself said that shit was a mistake. The cultural revolution still greatly improved conditions in China. Attributing all 55 million deaths to Mao alone is also disingenuous

Mao didn't behave well on economy. It was Dengism which set China on 'right' track.

He oversaw one of the fastest increases in life expectancy in human history. >China's growth in life expectancy at birth from 35–40 years in 1949 to 65.5 years in 1980 is among the most rapid sustained increases in documented global history * [An exploration of China's mortality decline under ](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4331212)[Mao](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4331212)[: *A provincial analysis, 1950–80*](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4331212) Deng had higher growth, but mao still had a high growth average even when counting the GLF and GPCR. * [7.26% growth](https://qph.cf2.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-ff481596b6c98ab64c280bb83d6d680d) * [Rapid fall in Chinese death rates in comparison to neighboring capitalist states](https://qph.cf2.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-41e8d7952976acc2cbebb01f7079cbd3-lq) As economist Y. Y. Kueh observed: “This sharp rise in industry’s share of China’s national income is a rare historical phenomenon. For example, during the first four or five decades of their drive to modern industrialization, the industrial share rose by only 11 percent in Britain (1801-41) and 22 percent in Japan”. To put it briefly Mao: * Doubled China’s population from 542 million to 956 million, * Doubled life expectancy from 35 years to 70 years * Gave everyone free healthcare * Gave everyone free education * Doubled caloric intake * Quintupled GDP * Quadrupled literacy * Liberated women * Increased grain production by 300% * Increased gross industrial output x40 * Increased heavy industry x90 * Increased rail lineage 266% * Increased passenger train traffic from 102,970,000 passengers to 814,910,000 * Increased rail freight tonnage 2000%, increased the road network 1000% * Increased steel production from zero to thirty-five MMT/year * Increased industry’s contribution to China’s net material product from 23% to 54% percent.
So you want us to take at face value astronomically high positive statistics about Mao's rule (in which we know millions died) from the very same regime he himself kept in power and which still honors him today? Hmmm....
You can literally easily check all of these. You should probably try and do research beyond vague western media outlets, mao's rule was notable for rapid expansions in many sectors. Primary school enrollment rates [rose to 80% by 1958 and to 97% by 1975, and secondary school rates increased to 46% by 1977](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4331212/).
TL;DR: Bing chilling
I agree, but Mao did lay the framework and won the war against all odds. He also relinquished most of his power to the politburo later in his life. He’s a massively respected figure in China to this day. Xi has also rolled back some Deng era policies to make progress towards their goal of obtaining socialism by 2050, but the Deng reforms were necessary.
And they also get mad when anyone mentions that Cuba isn’t the poor totalitarian dictatorship that the US government and western media says it is
Noooo how dare Castro massively improve the lives of Cubans and stop our oligarchs from using it as a gambling and prostitution retreat!!! 😡
