      Cringe imo, so at some point earlier in the parties history the CPC didn’t think the Soviet model could be 1:1 implanted into China and Mao instead spoke about creating a “Socialism with Chinese Characteristics” the phrase that’s been carried into today. He seems to find this to be revisionist and things like the influence of Confucius and Chinese philosophy to be bourgeoise… the weirdest part about this though is that he basically says “They should’ve appealed to the peasantry” “shouldn’t of appealed so much to big landowners” “mao calling it a peasant revolution means they aren’t marxist” “it was a national revolution not a social revolution” “new democracy is bourgeoise liberalism” “mao’s a liberal democrat that pretends to be marxist” “mao zedong thought is anti-marxist” and I’m still not sure why except for his briefly stated view on new democracy. Mostly non-investigative nonsense that necessitates millions of people to learn Marxism but get nothing from it other than justifying liberalism and wanting to take over Siberia(?)
