My take doesn't begin and end with "china bad".
As with any historical event, the context and events proceeding and following it are vital to be able to actually understand it.
No AES state is or was a utopia, and we can't learn from their mistakes if we don't understand how and why they made them, and how they responded to them.
Understandable ๐ China's and really any country's government obviously isn't 100% bad or strictly worse than another, Idk a lot about Mao but I think killing a bunch of landlords and providing housing super super cheap is pretty awesome. Sorry if I was being super aggressive or anything, I just see a lot of people acting like bc dishonest western propaganda about socialist countries (and even just countries that oppose the US) exists that means they're utopias and their government can do no wrong. It's def more complex than hardliners on either side want to pretend it is. I wish I knew how to do more reliable research on anything around China, there's good lessons to learn there, but it feels like there are almost no primary sources that aren't CCP or western propaganda
