I hope you end up in the same place that all these people that you make these programs about end up going which is hell let them rot in history there's no need to storyboard their satanic stories of death in Murder across the world what's your morbid fascination with these sick people
There's no need to try to immortalize all these people they're alive in hell you can meet em if you want....... go on and think it's a game Ive had hundreds of paranormal encounters.
Yes bozo, yes. The Asians were just victims of the west.
Ugh, so sick of fake history.
Excellent - Excellent - Excellent!!! Just subscribed. I'm a Christian, all I will say about communism is that it's " a DOCTRINE OF DEMONS" as such " teachings " are described in the New Testament of the Bible.

Lu Xun once wrote:
"Revolution is a bitter thing, mixed with filth and blood, not as lovely or perfect as the poets think. It is eminently down to earth, involving many humble, tiresome tasks, not so romantic as the poets think... . So it is easy for all who have romantic dreams about revolution to become disillusioned on closer acquaintance, when a revolution is actually carried out"
FACTS!!!
Revolution for sake of your people is one thing and seeking revolution to grab the power is other
Mao stalin hitler all you can see is the very Fabric of human nature.
mao would've been furious at that mid-video ad
Binging these documentaries. They are great. Thank you for the content.
From 1956 to 1966, Liu Shaoqi ruled China, and these mistakes were Liu Shaoqi's mistakes. The coup d'état tampered with history. Imposing the mistakes of others on Mao Zedong
These stories are told by the western. In Chinese view, there are many things that are not accurate.
Dear friends: Hello! I am a farmer and worker from the bottom of China. Facing the authoritarian and authoritarian Chinese model, it challenges the constitutional and democratic systems of the world. Democratic countries around the world must have a deep understanding of and understand one fact: since the CCP came into power in 1949, hundreds of millions of Chinese farmers have worked hard to pay public grain, agricultural taxes, free construction of water conservancy projects, which provided the CCP with financial primitive accumulation at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China. Under the family planning policy, Chinese farmers were forced to abort, tie the ring, and pay fines for excess births, Farmers are restricted by the household registration system in rural areas and cannot freely move their population, living a life without human rights and welfare like slaves. During the three-year Great Famine from 1959 to 1961, it is conservatively estimated that 40 million people starved to death, the vast majority of whom were rural residents. After China's reform and opening up in 1980, the vast majority of farmers entered cities to work as red sweatshop workers, construction workers, and environmental sanitation workers, working the most tiring and dirty jobs with the lowest meager wages. They were unable to enjoy the benefits and benefits of urban household registration such as housing, medical care, elderly care, and education. Due to China's household registration system, the children of Chinese farmers and workers can only stay in the rural areas where their household registration is located to receive education, This has led to the world's largest tragic situation of left behind children and elderly people living alone in rural areas in China. Today, China is the second largest economy in the world, but the farmers and workers who sacrificed the most get negative welfare treatment, while civil servants and senior officials of the CCP government enjoy privileged and high welfare treatment. The Chinese government utilizes the advantages of low human rights and cheap labor to attract a large amount of international financial capital investment, making China the world's largest red sweatshop. The low prices of products produced in China are due to the fact that Chinese farmers and workers work overtime for extended periods of time with only meager wages. Most importantly, China does not have independent trade unions outside the government to fight for fair welfare benefits for farmers and workers. To change the current situation of unfair competition in the global trade market by the Chinese government using this low human rights "advantage", democratic countries around the world have the responsibility to urge and pressure the Chinese government to demand an increase in the human rights and welfare protection of the majority of bottom Chinese people. The trade sanctions of the United States and the anti-dumping measures of the European Union cannot solve the trade deficit problem at all. Only by improving the human rights and welfare benefits of the majority of Chinese grassroots farmers and workers can the economic interests and labor welfare of democratic countries around the world not be harmed (such as the policy of reducing welfare benefits proposed by the left-wing in the United States). If the human rights and welfare standards of Chinese farmers and workers cannot gradually match those of workers in democratic countries, then the human rights and welfare standards of workers in democratic countries can only gradually match those of Chinese farmers and workers. Therefore, democratic countries around the world have the responsibility to help all Chinese farmers and workers at the bottom of the human rights voice to comprehensively exert pressure on the Chinese government, instead of turning a blind eye to implement the appeasement policy, nor can they just emphasize Xinjiang, Tibet The human rights situation in Kong and among dissenters can only be maintained by improving the human rights and welfare protection of the majority of lower class Chinese people in order to maintain fair competition in the global trade market. Only by constantly putting forward human rights and welfare accountability to the CCP government, demanding the establishment of free and independent trade unions and farmers' associations, forcing financial disclosure and budget transparency, will China gradually embark on the path of constitutional democracy. A democratized China is indispensable for the stability and peace of the world, and it is also a responsibility that the whole world cannot evade, because we are all citizens of the Earth. I hope that wise people from all over the world can work together to make democracy and constitutionalism overcome authoritarianism, good currency overcome bad currency, civilizatiovercome barbarism, and make this world a better place. Come on!
Thanks for this excellent summary of the topic!
This is a very balanced and instructive biography with a narrative voice that makes you feel the thrill of history. Congratulations.

"very balanced." Sure, if you're a Leftist.
This video series is SO-O-O good. I'm just watching one right after the other. They are excellent not just for their lavish inclusion of vintage photos, clips and illustrations, but also for the excellent, detailed commentary made by superb voiceover readers, in flawless, grammatically-correct English. The commentary is also balanced and modern in its scope, trying to comprehend the subjects' good points and bad.
A lot of dodgy information and omissions though !
@@realitymatters8720 ageed
He twisted the history! Nationlists were the main forces! Communists developed from thousands of people to millions of people! What kind of war could make an army grow if this army really deeply engaged in the war? Shame on him ! Soviet was behind the Chinese Communists, that's the major reason why Nationlists lost!
@@vincentnick9287 The Communists made a deliberate choice to join the fight against the Japanese, but as they did not see any qualitative difference between the Nationalists and the Japanese, they only fought as hard as the absolutely had to, inorder to keep the supplies comming.
And like the Nationalist they often sabotaged the efforts of eachother
Once the war with the Japanese was over, they had more men, more resourses, was better organized, and at the time less corrupt !
No wonder they won !
@@realitymatters8720 That's very true. Lots of thanks for caring about the true history in China. "at the time less corrupt" quoted, Nationlists depleted resources in the war with the Jappanese and still chose to engage in another war was unwise. With the Soviet's secret supplies, the force situation was soon reversed. Soon, the civil war led to the hyperinflation, and its aftermath was the Nationalists' failure. But The Nationalist are gentlemen in heart, believing in democracy, they didn't even ban the press of the Communist for the sake of free speaking. If you know how brutal the communist controlled the press and any other media after they took power, you would agree.
This documentary is so comprehensive. It's not just about the Mao himself but I learn a lot more about Chinese modern history too. Thanks for such a great effort putting in the footages & info.
I've heard that context matters, but God Damn, this is a lot of context. I love it! 😀
@@Nick-rs5if not sure what context you're mentioning :D

This is one of the best documentaries that I have yet viewed on TH-cam. Well done 👍
great video , thanks for watching !
Thank you for uploading this. Greetings from Ireland, 18th of April 2022. 🇮🇪❤️🌹
As a second generation Chinese born of parents who fled China in the late forties this documentary is so well done it almost took me to China in those turbulent years. The incidents like what is narrated here were told to us by my parents after dinner. When we were just kids they were just stories and were fascinating and we used to listen to them with awe. Recalling what my parents told me and watching this documentary I can say that it is the best one that describes what unfolded in those tragic and turbulent years. My love to the millions who lost their lives through no fault of theirs.
因为中国大陆参与了朝鲜战争，所以中国大陆遭到了欧美国家长达几十年的经济封锁，再加上新生人口过多又碰到了自然灾害，当时的民众和底层官员基础素质也不够，综合几方面原因才造成了当时中国粮食短缺问题。 事实就是毛泽东时期是中国人口增长最快的时期，作为敌对方，台湾国民党和欧美主流媒体肯定会放大中国共产党的任何灾难，以此来达到反共宣传和激化中国大陆内部的矛盾的目的。 十年文化大革命，的确打击了中国的封建残余势力和被国民党和西方国家诱惑收买的个人和团体等不稳定因素，重新统一了全中国的思想，让中国成为一个全新的国家，为接下来的改革开放大发展铺平了道路。 毛泽东是一个坚定的共产主义和民族主义奉献者，在他艰难的革命斗争中，他的家族被国民党灭绝，他的第三任妻子因为长征和战争变成了精神病患者，他最喜爱的儿子战死在朝鲜战场上。 他死后成了共产党执政初期所有过错的承担者。 你不能以现代人的眼光看待当时那个贫穷落后人吃人的社会，中国共产不打地主，就会在全国各地多饿死些人，多些为了生存而选择当土匪强盗破坏社会治安稳定的人。 不把拖累社会发展的封建顽固毒瘤去除，国家就很难升级发展。

@@gfrancisco8870 I'd say they are spot on. Compare the two countries and see whose doing better.
@@miriguwa1958 impossible. There is so much Chinese disinformation. When it comes to statistics and studies. There’s no telling what’s true and not true
"Idealogical Purity" are 2 words you never want to hear or say.
"If 300million people died in a nuclear war the other half would still be alive to secure victory" is such a fucking outlandish statement

No , Stalin didn't handle Manchuria to Communists , when second world war came to an end, Both, Nationalist and Communist tried to occupy Japanese occupied territories.Fortunately , for the communists , Manchuria was near to Communist liberated zones. However, Chiang requested American airforce to air lift his troops. It, was vicious civil war that brought communist victory in Manchuria, not Soviet Union handing Manchuria to Communists.
So interesting and informative. Thanks.
Wow what a lot of information!! There is a book called "Do Not Say We Have Nothing" by Madeleine Thien, a Canadian author, the book transcribes a family's plight during Mao. The book made me more interested in taking a closer look at what happened during this time. I highly suggest finding this book as it depicts a human side of this reign.
I read Wild Swans: Three Daughters of China by Jung Chang and it had a massive impact on me. It really taught me so much not only about China but about its people and what three generations of people went through.
@@susanwaldron6831I'm reading it right now and that's why I'm here. Beautiful book. Never knew about Mao's deluded and paranoid nature.

How about pedophile Biden
@@sayulitalyfe5299 how about Trump and his daughter?
@@fusion10sg f trump too.
@@fusion10sg The evidence that Trump did something to his daughter isn't nearly as substantive as Biden's daughter's rehab diaries where she talks about the showers she took with "an older family member" when she was a little girl.

@@fusion10sg trump Derangement Syndrome
You should make a video on Oskar Dirlewanger and the Dirlewanger brigade, they were horrifically brutal and had an interesting history
Sure, if you consider pedophilia and murder interesting. 🙄
@@prodigalpriest I find it interesting how the Nazis even allowed them to operate even though them and even the SS were disgusted by the Brigade. By interesting I don’t mean that in a good way I mean it in a bad way.
That's just distasteful. I get the morbid curiosity but it's very inappropriate. Dirlewanger was a sadist and his unit committed unspeakable atrocities. There are plenty of resources available if you wanna educate yourself, but there is no educational value in discussing Dirlewanger. He was a sick fuck, leave it at that.
A very knowledgeable history, many thanks
Thank you very much for a wonderful job.
THANKS FOR WATCHING !
Mao was not only a military tactician but a political tactician as well!
He was even a better strategist.
Caused the Great Famine, where 40 million people died due to Mao's policy.
Insanity is rampant among world leaders, past and present.
What if I said that what's insane isn't the leaders themselves but the people willing to follow them
Be it Mao, Stalin, Trump, Hillary Clinton or Biden cults of personality require millions of stupid people
Yes, like the old fool with Ray ban aviators. Joey biden embraces terrible lithium and dangerous Chinese batteries, he purposely shut down the pipeline, stopped Alaska drilling and doubled the cost for amaeicans on domestic oil and energy crippling the middle class. Meanwhile, we now have burning Electric vehicles everywhwmmerw , which is a nuclear inferno that will burn for days
Great research and very well executed. Great job and thank you!
Ha, a Mao documentary that, wait for it, is well executed....
The jokes write themselves
@@ProfessorImbakeXBoomshaka If by "well executed" you mean "leaves out all all of the evidence of torture & murder like it never happened", then yes.
@@tophernolastname2378I guess you didn’t pay attention because it was stated how political prisoners were brutally dealt with.
@@shiteetah I guess "downplaying & omitting entirely the murders & tortures against political rivals that Mao approved while coloring the mass deaths during his rule as something that would have happened anyway" would be a better way to phrase it.

Thank you!
A very enlightened view of China. It proves how difficult it is to rule a country with such a high population.
This must be a commentary world record: more than one hour without taking a new breath of air.
Bro that is so stressful to listen now that I have this in mind
There’s this thing called “editing”, most likely done with a software. Like autotune. Getting rid of empty bars.
very interesting, can you also make a video about Josip Broz Tito leader of Yugoslavia, very intersting
My 12 grade Geography teacher looked Mao Zedong when he was old .
Any major changes in a country, regardless if political, social or economic, comes on the backs of those sacrificed by the interests of those interested to make the change. Nobody has made an exception into this regard. Chairman Mao's merit however, is that he has transformed China, laying the foundation of stability, based on which the ones which followed him, brought China to the level of superpower it is today.
Mao was a pig
I understand what you're saying and there's some truth to it, but the fact that conditions improved almost immediately after he died and China's true emergence as a global power began so quickly after he was removed from the equation causes me to agree with the estimation that in most ways, once he transitioned from rebel leader to actual governing body leader, he hurt China rather than helped it.
This is exactly what I said.
@@georgevladimirovich7190 It sort of sounds like the exact opposite of what you said, haha

Excellent documentary well researched, balanced and not over dramatised.
Even the main picture isn't right.
Are you kidding? This doc did not even point out the most obvious - the very name Great Leap Forward says loud and clear China was in a bad spot. One reason for that was the perceived nuclear threat from US. Chinese were not stupid, they knew crazy hawks in US at one time had a plan to wipe out 300 million Chinese and China had nothing to hit back. Thus a Chinese official coined a well known phrase "We must have the bomb, even if we have to go naked.". To pay for the bomb program, China had to export grains, unwittingly contributing to the famine. As for the Cultural revolution, this doc demonstrated the blatant Western double standards. Granted both Cultural revolution and French revolution were utterly brutal. But a revolution in the West is noble, but a revolution in China is senseless and evil? The Chinese were a bunch of mindless sheep falling for Mao's wish on a whim?
Educative and informative
1:04 you know this could be just about every rural parent from 100 years ago… a very hard life where and when people’s social behaviors used to take so long to evolve. And if you’re wondering why, well it’s all about communication isn’t it? Our ways of communicating have evolved so rapidly the past 50 years that I think many younger people just can’t even imagine it back then.
This is 100% true. Espresso in Asian countries. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if people are still raised like this today.
From 1956 to 1966, Liu Shaoqi ruled China, and these mistakes were Liu Shaoqi's mistakes. The coup d'état tampered with history. Imposing the mistakes of others on Mao Zedong
“Our ways of communicating have evolved so rapidly the past 50 years”
I hold similar views with you. And I think this rapid development will lead to the instability of people's inner world and the collapse of Universal value. To prove this point, I studied historical data on the incidence of mental illness in the United States, and the relatively high incidence of mental illness among young people, especially millennials, confirmed the correctness of this viewpoint.
What worries me is, children enter the world of internet before their minds are mature, and this world is filled with various ideas. Their spiritual world, like a white paper, washed and torn apart in the waves of these ideas. Some of them can heal it with the help of family, some don't. Tragedy.
You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become a villain.
Best explanation lol
Amazing video. I think you should emphasize more the role of Chou en Lai
The intelectual in the group
Good stuff.
Good stuff. Very informative. Thanks
Fantastic! Thank you!
This is just exactly preview of what I have read,it is so illustrated.
Excuse me. You don't get to say that. Chairman Mao was a hero of African because he gave the Africans fish.
Interesting and fascinating
Excellent 👌👌👍
It’s interesting that he and Pol Pot share so many similarities. From their troubled upbringing to their stints as teachers that crystallized their communist leanings. It seems places of “higher learning” frequently produce revolutionaries.
Good jobs thank you
Well research documentary
Great history lesson!
Love From Orlando
When is Bismarck video coming out?
It got sunk
loved it.
Great man
Good program. Well-balanced and factual. Beware of hubris, beware of those who crave power. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
@Zack Smith tell us an example
@Zack Smith wait a sec you said the video contained propaganda, then say the usa as example, but they are nether subject of the video nor are the influnce the states had discredited, so give me an example from the video, because originally i thougth the sentence"absolute power corrupts absolutely" was what you are claimkng as propaganda
Edit: also interesting you think "china #1" then look at how the current debt crisis is handled
@Zack Smith "sweety" you do realise that said debt in the private sector is a result of corrution and legislative choice, directly perpetraited by branches of local governments and by extension thr ccp. Also still waiting for an example
@Zack Smith made them pay after they been critical of the ccp, remember jack ma ?, they didnt give a shit about him until he gave that interview, ren zhiqiang after posting a critical article about "the great leader" and the ccp just "dissappeared", that how china deals with its billionaires and it keeps pumping them out only to deal with them later when they become critical of the ccp. it has nothing to with wether or not they engaged in corruption or "hurting the public", when that is what the ccp is currently doing, employing tanks and the military to keep down the population and stop them from protesting/rioting.

One thing which Mao introduced during the cultural revolution which we could still use today is the “public-shaming” where a party bureaucrat is dragged out and publicly berated by the community. A bit like putting people in the stocks during the Middle Ages. I can think of quite a few politicians I would like to see publicly shamed.
These short and concise documentaries are great. However, if they include display of wording on screen will perfect it as this will help with reading,, listening, and learning. Thank you.
Awesomeness is watching The Channel.
Some very marked errors from 32:00 onward.
Mao's Chairmanship ended in 1956, not until 1970's. Liu Shaoqi's de facto leadership began much earlier than 1959, inasmuch, The Great leap forward was primarily forged and executed by Liu and his aide Deng Xiaoping, with the blessing of Mao.
Ma's major step was that he refused to give up power even when things clearly were going well. If he gave up power before the cultural revolution...
If you missed it, there is some text that only appears in the subtitles and not in the voiceover, it's about some interesting conclusions!
Thanks!
Good documentary
Murder of Rasheed by sheryaar Civil.
2:41 I am a little bit confused. I think Qing restricted trade during Qianlong, isn't this make 100 years or so? Or i misremembering something?
Fascinating!
Thank you for your research.
This documentary was produced by someone else. It’s quite old
He wanted democracy at an early age then decided to become a dictator himself once he got power.
no democracy in communist ideology.
@chiefsittingfeatherwezfake155 Yes. but he was the founder of PRC as he was the chairman of CCP at that time.
Few people can resist the corruption of absolute power.
What if he found out the only way for people of China to gain any meaningful freedom was through socialism? A lot of other Third World democrats came to the same conclusion. If you implement liberal capitalist "democracy" in a colonized pre-industrial country, where 99% people are illiterate and have no concept of modern civilization, the only thing you would get is warlordism and barbaric exploitation of the chaos that ensues. That is exactly what happened to China between 1910s to 1940s, with imperialist powers, most notably Japan, exploiting the absolute chaos and deprivation of the country, bringing the entire nation to its knees. Mao's solution was echoed by millions across the country, so say what you want about him, he was the leader who led hundreds of millions of people out of absolute misery and darkness.
He changed his mind about democracy, if you watch the video it says he and the Chinese didn’t want to adopt the western system of liberal democracy of the western countries that had betrayed China at the treaty of Versailles and given Chinese land to the Japanese. Western countries and Japan also had colonies in China at the time, they were occupying China causing a lot of anger. China wanted to be independent and free.
Amazing explanation
This video uses a TON of sound effects that are also in the game Age of Empires 2. It's really confusing my brain thinking a game is starting.
Thank you for this video. I have actually been to China and still today, you will see statues and pictures of him everywhere, even on the dashboards of their cars. He is a hero in the eyes of Chinese people for there is much resentment of past mistreatment of China by "the West." I think in their eyes he is the first one to stand up to them and stand up for the Chinese people and I can't dispute some of these grievances. Nobody really explained to me why they think he was so great, as politics is a taboo topic in China, but I gathered little tidbits here and there. One elder lady told me "You declare war on us!" referring of course to the war in Korea. Obviously, I wasn't alive at the time, and all I could do was kindly assure her I don't want any war with China and I hope we can be friends. The propaganda about the role of the Communist Party during WWII and the cultural revolution floods the movies and even TV series still today. As for Mao, I think George Washington was better than this man, but I don't see him as a monster, either. I often hear him listed as a mass murder among Stalin, Hitler, and Pol Pot, but I don't think this "Great Leap Forward" was intentional, nor malicious- just very poorly planned. The cultural revolution is a different story, and I didn't know people were killed in this time period.
1.在中国，政治不是一个禁忌话题，只是不要公开说一些反党的话就行了； 2. 中国有句俗话“当官不为民做主，不如回家卖红薯 ”，只要是人都会存在问题，所以执政人员中也会有存在问题的人，这些人可以随便批评。 3.文化大革命，我们国家官方是承认这是历史上放的一个错误。 4.毛主席是个人，但不得不承认，功绝对大于过。
毛泽东是世界无产阶级的革命导师，所以他不仅是中国的英雄，也是全世界无产者们的英雄(如果你是无产者，那他也是你的英雄)。--大跃进中饿死人这件事是复杂的(有人研究过，700万人左右)，但毛泽东没有任何责任，那是三年自然灾害、苏修逼债，以及其它领导者的责任，当然还有种种中共党内的路线斗争问题，当时毛泽东已然退居二线了。--至于文革大革命，也复杂也简单，简单来说其实就是路线斗争，捍卫红色江山，巩固无产阶级政权，进而解放全人类，让世界人民都能有一个美好的明天。--至于你说的什么华盛顿，我不了解，不过有一点我可以肯定，那就是他没有资格与马恩列斯毛相比，特别是毛泽东。
In china, discussing politics would lead to unexpected troubles,though no supervision,but from reporter's distortion mainly.People only agree to discussing these topic to their totally trustful friends or in some anoymous web fourms.
Read his remarks more then you might change your stance on Mao. As a Chinese, I can tell that many his of rhetorics reflected his mentality of seeing himself as an emperor. Once a leader has this mindset, he would consider his power as the nations foundation and anyone who defies him would be against the country, because in his mind, Mao= China. That narcissistic view led to the purge of high ranking party officials such as Peng Dehuai who openly criticized him for the Great Leap Forward. His ego and emperor-like mentality also led to cultural revolution, which is seen as a power play for him to regain authority over then China’s president Liu ShaoQi.
@@llzhang35443 承认错误却不反省，不允许总结发生错误的根本原因4就完全是你的观点，没有任何论证，你的“不得不承认”就非常没有说服力
"Gangs of teenagers wearing red armbands roamed the cities" sounds familiar
I wonder if the famine during the Great Leap Forward is connected to increased need for grains for animal feed as western capitalistic animal food providers began to be introduced into China? Certainly, as is documented in Dr. T. Colin Campbell's groundbreaking book "The China Study," the increased meat consumption contributed to a fast decline in overall health in the Chinese population. Perhaps it contributed to an unexpected shift in agricultural needs too.
Nice content love from India
Mao and his followers were taking the road and systems that no one had done before base on the cultural and circumstances of China, he was not a economic specialist so he had made many mistakes, but he knew how to use the right people to tackle the problem, and he had kept Dan standing by to save the economy and guide China to the right ways,
He had made a statement, when Dan taking over a task, Mao have no worry,
Mao was really good at economics the man was multi facted, you're just trying to give a different opinion to everyone else praising his skills
Great Doc without the fear-mongering. How can people still want this system after all the atrocities
Despite the setbacks of the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution, neither of which are excusable in anyway, China's Communist Party restored their national sovereignty, lifted its citizens out of poverty and is pursuing a multipolar world, which has already begun to emerge.
You cannot simply tell China's people that they aren't better off now than they were in 1949...
Mao murals in China are sickening. Imagine if Germany put up giant posters of Hitler today
@@nobbynobbs8182 Mao restored China's Independence, Standard of Living and International Respect to levels they haven't had for about a century. So while the Great Leap Forward was inexcusable and the Cultural Revolution unforgivable, Mao did overall leave China in better shape than when he took over.

On the contrary. The communists did not invade Taiwan at the conclusion of the civil war because Harry Truman sent the 7th Fleet into the Taiwan strait to prevent such an invasion at the onset of the Korean War.

if donot know, donot comment
This really was a well done & unbiased documentary!
I didnt know a lot about this part of history & its absolutely fascinating, the sheer brutality & horror of some of these times is hard to stomach, sadly so many who set out to make sociatal change for the better, are doomed to repeat the same cycles of brutality & injustice that they started out against because they have so internalized that way of life they can't see any other way.
Thank you.
On of the most damning condemnations of the failure of socialism as an economic system is the fact that China's greatest economic success occurred as a result of the CCP abandoning socialist economic policies in favor of a more market-based economy.
Different times, and circumstances.
At different points, given economic modes of operating will work more or less well. While cold and overlapping with great amounts of starvation and suffering, and a lack of production of consumer goods, the transformative economic success of Stalin and Mao is not subjective.
@@emiledarraghbarry Stalin and Mao took agricultural based economies that were lagging behind the Western Industrial powers and industrialized them by force. That is the transformation that Stalin and Mao brought about. Socialism had little if anything to do with the progress in Russia and China during their rule.
@@CStone-xn4oy That's absurd. No offence.
@@emiledarraghbarry No offence taken. You replied to my comment saying that what I said was absurd without specifying exactly what in the comment you find absurd. Rather than guess it is fast if you tell me exactly what in my comment you find absurd and then we can discuss from there.

@@robertgiles9124 How does it feel being stupid?
@@robertgiles9124 Yeah, whereas during the peoriod of Mao's rule, average life expectancy of Chinese people increased from 43.7 to 64.6 according to the world bank, and that is from 1960 to 1976, not starting from 1949 which by then the expectancy was at most around lower 30s.
Mao made a lot of mistakes, but that doesn't negate his contribution to the Chinese people.
@@mqhu2857 he did a lot of good early on but to my understanding that came at a price, human suffering.
@@chester6343 You are right about at a price, but you did not count in the fact that the Chinese people are already suffering from the foreign forces during the mid to late 19th centry. You can search for "century of humiliation" to find reference.
To be fair no matter Mao did, from what we can see in historical statistics according to credible sources like world bank, it is undeniable Mao has made great contributions to the development of the Chiese people. That is the reason why many people now in China still warship him, few even warship him fervently/zealously, despite the disastrous results of his several political campaigns.
My opinion is that what he did good outweighs what it is bad, simple as that. After all, everything come at a cost. Histroy is what already happened, we've go no choice but to accept it and move on.
Just not becoming as Chairman but Zhou is behind the Great Leap Forward . Worth understanding
I was drafted to fight The Commies at Korea during the invasion from the North and Mao army as volunteers 1951-53 I served at Tokyo, Seoul and Pusan First Radio and leaflets Group! Suddenly it's now 2023 how time flies!

Marx believed that the means of production would end up being controlled by the workers, not that "all goods and wealth should be communal". Who is writing these scripts?
It’s a great documentary.
One minute of silence to honor all the teachers who've been tortured and killed by their students during cultural revolution. One more minute to his third wife who was forcibly disappeared to give way to younger wives and concubines to the old Mao.
that was a really bad painting on the front cover, he did not look like that 😂 LOL
Something like 20 years ago, I had an apartment. Found a framed picture of Mao at a thrift store. I thought the haircut was funny so i bought it 😂. I put it on the wall as a conversation piece. I got some weird looks lol. Now I see why. Had no idea who it was at the time.

Will you do Xi Jinping? ^^... it would be a great continuity to this

Not aware of everything? More like arrogance.

I agree, but due to the authoritarianism of his rule, the system relied too much solely on his skills in governing, which in the case of such a gigantic country was unrealistic for it to be effectively managed by just one man who could not be an expert in everything. However, I agree that apart from being an authoritarian leader, Mao also cared about the lives of the Chinese people, which can be seen in the incredible improvement in life expectancy, etc.
@@Michal-je1hxcant say mao cared given how many millions of people died because of his decisions and power to enforce them

因为中国大陆参与了朝鲜战争，所以中国大陆遭到了欧美国家长达几十年的经济封锁，再加上新生人口过多又碰到了自然灾害，当时的民众和底层官员基础素质也不够，综合几方面原因才造成了当时中国粮食短缺问题。 事实就是毛泽东时期是中国人口增长最快的时期，作为敌对方，台湾国民党和欧美主流媒体肯定会放大中国共产党的任何灾难，以此来达到反共宣传和激化中国大陆内部的矛盾的目的。 北朝鲜因为被欧美国家经济封锁和敌对，现在还能听到欧美国家媒体宣传他们会饿死人。
Lifes expectancy of Chinese increased significantly during the new China. Try to think from different aspects rather than following the narratives the Nationalists Taiwan government spreads
