Brutal Things That Were "Normal" For China's Mao Zedong

  • Here’s a question to start this video: who was the biggest enemy of humankind in the entire twentieth century? Hitler? Yes, that will be a common answer to this question, a popular choice, as his crimes against humanity are well known no matter where you are in the entire world. Some more knowledgeable people may reply with Joseph Stalin or maybe Winston Churchill for playing the primary part in exploiting colonized India at the expense of millions of starving Indians dying during the great Bengal famine.
    But the truth is, none of these men come any close to former President of China, Mao Zedong (mow-zeh-DONG). With a possible headcount of nearly eighty million, Mao wasn’t just the most vicious ruler of the twentieth century, but he should be considered one of the most brutal rulers that ever lived.
    Welcome to Nutty History, and today we are counting all the brutal things Mao Zedong committed during his reign over the Republic of China.

      I have noticed that some worshipers of Don the Con Trump, such as Gregory OBrien, are commenting by trying to use this topic of Mao as a means of attacking Trump's current political opposition. Therefore, it is appropriate to state these facts: Twice impeached Trump was the worst US president in history for many reasons. #1) Trump committed an act of treason against the US by inciting a violent insurrection on January 6, 2021. #2) Trump’s incompetence regarding his management of the US response to the Covid-19 pandemic between January 2020 and July of 2020. Thousands of US citizens died as a result Trump’s failure. If Trump had a proper immediate response to the pandemic the way that the South Korean government did, then thousands of US citizens who died would still be alive today. #3) In April of 2019 Trump vetoed the resolution to end US military support of Saudi Arabia's GENOCIDE of thousands of innocent civilians in Yemen! Trump was using the US military to support GENOCIDE in Yemen! #4) Trump violated the Emoluments Clause of the US Constitution for his entire 4 years in office, then in 2019 Trump verbally mocked the US Constitution. The foundation of the USA is the US Constitution, that is why the presidential inaugural oath includes to swear to protect and defend the US Constitution. In January 2017 Trump publicly swore an oath on a bible at his inauguration ceremony to protect and defend the US Constitution. In 2019 Trump mocked the US Constitution by publicly saying the words "phony emoluments clause". #5) Trump misogynistically and adulterously said of women: "Grab them by the pussy."! Trump committed adultery with Stormy Daniels and then tried to cover it up. Trump's former lawyer, Michael Cohen, was in prison for crimes related to Trump's cover-up of his adulterous scandal with Stormy Daniels. Most Republicans claim to be the moral party and/or the majority Christian party, but hypocritically enthusiastically want to give an adulterous Donald Trump, another 4 years in office. If a US president who was a member of the Democratic Party did the terrible things Trump has, of course, the Republican Party leaders would be screaming for his removal from office. #6) Trump committed the crime of obstruction of justice. #7) Trump committed crimes of trying to tamper with elections, especially in Georgia. #8) Trump's attempted abuse of power regarding Ukraine. #9) Trump committed tax fraud in New York State, which is partly why Trump hides his tax returns. #10) Trump practiced corrupt nepotism as he appointed unqualified members of his family into positions of power in the executive branch of government. #11) Trump illegally destroyed documents and illegally took documents with him after he left the office of president. There are many other horrible things about Trump. Here are some of them: Donald Trump is a dumb corrupt businessman which is why he hides his tax returns. Donald Trump is not a self-made man, he benefited from nepotism. His daddy Fred Trump gave him millions of dollars to start businesses many of which have failed! Donald Trump's failed businesses are many but include: Trump Airlines, a Trump Casino, and Trump University. With his failed Trump University, he defrauded hundreds of students. In Trump's many construction projects he failed to pay some of his contractors. Trump committed fraud with his non-profit in New York State which is why Trump recently transferred his residence to Florida. Donald Trump is too stupid to write his own book which why he hired a ghost writer to write "The Art of the Deal". When Trump was in high school, he hired another boy to take his SAT college entrance exam. Trump claims that he is smart, but he refuses to show us his college transcripts. Donald Trump's daddy bribed a physician to write that Donald Trump had bone spurs and therefore could dodge the Vietnam War draft. Donald Trump and his dad also practiced racism in who they would rent properties to in the 1960s and 1970s. That is just scratching the surface of the long list of horrible things about Donald Trump.

      It's called advocacy by omission and it began full force in the field of public pedagogy after William Jefferson Clinton's first term as president. Clinton's economic deals with China continue the process of whitewashing history which began with Richard Nixon's visit to China and its subsequent opening to the west. Want to read something interesting? Henry Kissinger's China, it's quite a book. I can sit here and write to you for hours, but I will just regale you with a short tale of a personal experience. I'm an immigrant from a communist country going on 42 years in exile. In the early 2000's I was able to secure exit from Cuba to my sister, niece, grand niece and brother in law. My grand niece was 9 at the time. I enrolled her in public school but kept a close watch on her education. I was utterly shocked and appalled by the indoctrination she was receiving in such schools. By the time she was 15 Obama was elected to his 1st tenure in office. Soon after, my grand niece began to show signs of leniancy to the left wing and was all goo-goo gaga for Obama. I confronted her with several questions and found out that 2 of her history professors were not teaching history at all, but were rather strong advocates for socialism, including, several trips to Cuba, China, North Korea, and Vietnam. I told her that I was going to start paperwork for her to be repatriated to Cuba. I took her cell phone, laptop, home computer away (all which were gifted by me) obviously, she didn't like it and went into panic mode. I wasn't going to do it. I was just teaching her a little lesson. She's not stupid, she understood and changed her tune. I sat down with her and helped her write an essay in history for her senior year. I pulled several online publications, testimonials, etc, and in a matter of 120 minutes her essay, or rather a thesis, was by all accounts a polished gem.
      She got a D - on the paper and that's when the shit hit the fan. I went to her school, demanded a meeting with the faculty and school board. I then proceeded to rip several new anal orifices. Ending with threats of legal action against the school which would have resulted in funding depletions and other families getting involved. Her grade was changed to an A +.
      I also had private words with her history professor and told him that I will be watching him like a hawk. I also obtained the names and addresses of a number of her schoolmates and wrote letters to all their parents. In particular, those of other Cuban immigrants.
      Now my grand niece is a practical nurse at the pediatric wing of Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami. Furthermore, she graduated 2 years ahead of her time and, to this day, she hasn't stopped thanking me for redirecting her life.
      Sadly there aren't more people who are willing to do the same as I did. I'm afraid the pollution of the American youth has gone too deep and all of it revolves around the disgusting public educational system.

    The parents of a close friend of mine had the misfortune to be Soviet trained Chinese Air Force Officers. They narrowly escaped being lynched by Red Guards, who besieged their air-force base demanding that anyone who was trained in the Soviet Union, or indeed, spoke Russian, be handed over to the mob for "rectification". The crowds were only dispersed when the Air Force Security gunned down several dozen of them. But any military (air force or army) who were caught outside the confines of the base when the Red Guards column arrived were lynched or beaten to death.
    You might have also mentioned the "Four Pests" campaign where (among other things) Communist cadres whipped up crowds around the country to try and exterminate all wild birdlife - which allowed locusts to rampage unchecked causing famine across the land....Chinas ecology still hasn't totally recovered from this lunacy.
    The Chinese Government can't have any reckoning with these facts as that would undermine their own legitimacy, so they keep ranting on about the atrocities of Imperial Japan, which were terrible, but pale into nothing compared to what China's Communist Party has done to its own people...in peacetime!

If my apologies mean anything to you, then please accept them. I don't think I am capable of apologising for my entire country, though.

    I need help, from people who are more well-versed in this. Why is communism sound like a good idea at first and then it all goes wrong. Was it romanticized from the beginning. When I think of communism it feels like a warm blanket of comfort equality. Let everyone have what they should and no one has too much. Then the people who decide who has the right amount always has more than the people below them. It's so easily becomes classism on the whole goal was to make everyone the same. Why is that?

      You’ve ever heard of the phrase “the road to hell is paved with good intentions”? It’s human nature to want more than someone else. Once the upper party members know that the lower party members will abide by whatever rule they set for them that they (upper party members) can get away with whatever. And if you ask “how can people live with such rules?” just look around at the censorship going on on the internet. Privacy is no longer a right anymore, your data is being sold by companies, you’re being told right now how to live. And if an argument is “but you can’t compare online privacy with murders”, the thing is that’s how communism starts. It starts out small, “you can’t say bad things about the party”, eventually it starts to build up because people prefer security over their own freedom. Eventually, the upper class members that dictate will see that lower class people will do anything because of that supposed economic and social security… but remember lower class people cannot talk bad about whatever policies the upper elites put into place… why not just take whatever?

      Greed. People demonize Capitalism, yet it's the greedy who destroy it. Same with Communism. The greedy in charge hoard the wealth and point the finger at another class, race, ethnicity. Eventually there's no one left to point the finger at but by this point the surfs are contained and useless. Useless idiots.

    • @mikatu

      It is easy, In theory the communist is good because means equality, however some are more equal than others, and that leads to the problems. Yes, if you are able to create an equal society then it is a good thing, but communism always has a party, and that party is just like a group of kings who explore the rest of the population.
      Then there is the economic incentive, that destroyed communism every time. If everybody receives a share no matter if they work or not, then why do they have to work? People work hard to improve themselves, but with communism everything they produce belongs to the community, meaning, they don't have an incentive to be better because they simply need to produce the very minimum to seem to be equal, and not to be better. Do you understand? What makes people become better is the possibility to be better, not to be equal. If everyone is equal then there is no longer an incentive to improve.
      Communism is good when applied to small groups of people, where people can trust each other and move forward. When it is applied to large groups it becomes impossible to avoid the corruption.
      In the end communism always turned into creating a utopian society instead of creating a working society.

    “The Cultural Revolution had no formal beginning or end. Its purpose was to restore revolutionary spirit and discredit the pragmatic approach that had led the government to pull back from some of Mao’s pet policies. . . . Students were exhorted to scrutinize teachers, neighbors and other adults for any sign of ‘bourgeois deviationism’-an indiscreet remark, a faulty background or an inappropriate possession, perhaps a book or a drawing. Those who fell afoul were ‘struggled against,’ hauled before jeering crowds to be denounced, humiliated, beaten and tortured. After a while the schools were closed, and the youngsters organized into companies of ‘Red Guards’ who were given free rail transport to roam the country ferreting out any derogation from Maoist purity. No one knows how many millions were killed or driven to suicide by them, but years later when interviewer Oriana Fallaci commented to Deng that Stalin had taken more lives than the Cultural Revolution, he replied: ‘I am not sure about that. Not sure at all.’”
