But this is a joke... right? I hope?

Side note: I have never actually read anything written by Mao before. That stuff is a very unsettling combination of stone-cold and unhinged. Maybe it's just because we know the "full" history now, maybe it's just the phrasing of the translation. Yikes.

Reading Mao himself is imperative to understanding why China went through the troubles it did. Maoism was the engine of misery in revolutionary China.
