The KMT did nearly wipe out the CCP a few times first at Shanghai in 1927 than at Jiangxi in 1934. Credit where it is due if it weren't for the resourcefulness of the CCP and Mao they would be long dead. Yeah, I guess that is a fair assessment that the nation as a whole went through an instant transition although it wasn't as radical initially as one might think, it did get progressively more hostile towards capitalist as Mao lost his mind. I see it as a problem with all attempts at communism; the people put to much power into a person/party which in turn loses sight of what it sought to achieve in the first place. I don't quite understand what you mean by mentioning Confucious either. I mean Chinese Society as a whole was undergoing a massive change after the 1911 Xinhai Revolution there wasn't much focus on religious thought but more individual power e.g. Warlords and Chiang Kai-Shek's incompetent rule over the National Republic.

China was barely united, the only reason we got the second United Front before the Japanese Onslaught was due to Xi'an incident in which a general arrested Chiang Kai-Shek who had refused to work with the communists or even confront the Japanese and forced him to sign a treaty with the communists. The rest of the warlords joined the war later but there was still a large amount of distrust and sabotage look at the New Fourth incident as a key example of this. As soon as the Secon Sino-Japanese War ended the CCP and the Nationalists with a few warlord states went straight back to fighting. Peace in China wasn't achieved until 1949 as you know but the nation was far from united. As for the Cultural Revolution that was a power play made by Mao nothing more nothing less. He hated how Liu Shaoqi was repairing and running the nation after the disastrous Great Leap Forward so in his response he indoctrinated a bunch of students told them to attack anyone or anything he deemed "reactionary" put the whole nation on hold while he was slowly claiming power. When he was done with his Red Guards he sent 17 million students to die in the northern countryside having no more use for their loyalty. There was no point to the Cultural Revolution other than that power hungry monster to steal back absolute control of the PRC. On your final point, I would argue that it took over 20 years to achieve Mao's communist state due to ideological conflict between the KMT and the CCP

The left is making a comeback haha!

"...that's about as much energy as I'm prepared to offer you."

ComradeMilton "I'm just not bothering to give them to you... it happens when someone wastes time finding sources for you because all you do is dismiss them so I'm not going to do it..."

You guys should just give up ComradeMilton has the mind of a child who is unwilling to contribute to a conversation with educated opinions and facts and instead just calls you names as well as refuses to budge when he is provided with information dismantling his opinions.

I am done talking here, you have proven to be the best troll I have ever encountered. The way you maintain your unwillingness to engage in conversation but still continue to shitpost is a dead give away so because of this I will stop feeding the troll. Goodbye

If you can somehow prove that it is not the official website that clearly links to its other forms of social media I will believe you but since you have been sprouting shit with no proof I doubt it. If you keep shit talking I will even email them directly.

What is the point of you being here then if you aren't going to explain your reasoning? If you are going to be defensive about something but cannot be bothered to share one shred of proof or a decent piece of reasoning on the issue, don't be a part of this conversation and just observe. Also BLM is an organisation their website even says so, so stop avoiding the facts and provide us with some proof that BLM is doing good for America as well as Afro-American communities "Black Lives Matter is a chapter-based national organization working for the validity of Black life. We are working to (re)build the Black liberation movement." Don't believe me? Here is the link http://blacklivesmatter.com/about/

You still haven't shown me anything to disprove the things I have presented I don't care if BLM isn't an official organisation, this person helped co-found BLM, therefore she is seen as a leader REGARDLESS of if it is a group or not stop beating around the bush out and show me that BLM is doing good

I beg to differ, the movement is no better than the KKK now and only seek to embody violence rather than avert it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iB5lirVJtwE&ab_channel=FaceofadyingNation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqQXmnMr_w8&ab_channel=ShayneNeal Also, the leader of the group quite just recently said that black people are the superior race because white people possess “genetic defects†that make them lesser humans. She also posted this racist bullshit just last year. Convinced yet?

I never said it was an organisation and what the hell does that have to do with being able to critique it? You are entitled to defend them but why are you defending their Black Supremacy and violent tendencies? Surely you can see how they are not the movement they once were originally claiming to be

I must disagree it is unacceptable and regardless of how frustrated you are, you have no right to destroy someone else's property. ANTIFA and BLM are some of the worst when it comes to that and give legitimate Leftists bad names you trying to defend them is exactly why so many hate modern day Left-Wing politics, there is nothing to defend it is such appalling behaviour that can not be defended

I call bullshit, such generalisations are on par to what the Regressive-Left use, these people you speak of are also not true leftists they are scum who hiding behind the terms of the left but believe in none of it

Planet of the Apes

I have been meaning to say this, but America and Canada are very different countries as a Canadian please don't group us with our Southern brothers and sisters the situation in Canada is very different. I mean in Quebec we only have 5 murders a year max for the US I would be inclined to say much more. Also if we ban far-right parties we become no better than them and we dilute democracy, I say let them preach their hate but ensure that no violence comes from their speech.

What the hell, are you telling me that because of a person's political and religious views they deserved to die? Now you are sounding like all those faux leftists who would silence opposing views because they are "Nazis". I don't care if they were right wing no one has the right to take away another person's life because they believe in something else, otherwise what is the point of having democracy. Again can we look at how life was lost and how tragic that some children will be without one of their parents, or how another will recover after losing their son or daughter (I am being hypothetical because I don't know who specifically died)

Assumptions make an ass out of you and me. Unless you have evidence I don't buy it

Scum of the earth I hope he rots in a cell for the rest of his life, my sympathies for all those families affected by this Nazi-wannabe

Oppressive? but weren't you the ones to declared war on them?

"Victory does not always rest with the big guns: but, if we rest in front of them we shall be lost." Commander Argentius "The roar of engines, the recoil of cannons. That is where the true joy of battle lies." Sergeant Antaro Chronus "It is good that war is terrible, otherwise men would grow fond of it." Robert E. Lee "History shows that there are no invincible armies." Joseph Stalin "Let it be remembered, too, that at a time of war, nearly everyone is under great strain." William Mackenzie King "The grim fact is that we prepare for war like precocious giants, and for peace like retarded pygmies." Lester B. Pearson if that is too rude for what you are doing try the one below "As a soldier, I survived World War I when most of my comrades did not." Lester B. Pearson "The game is not lost - or won - until the last bell goes." John Curtain "When you go home, tell them of us and say: For their tomorrow, we gave our today." John Maxwell Edmonds

So I am lost what is the Casus belli or is there none?

Economic Left/Right: -8.0 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.74 Well that pretty much sums me up

The fact that you were willing to put everyone who trusted you in TI and BM below you in an attempt to benefit yourself is disgusting, such a perfect example of a vile capitalist I would put it in a dictionary
