Seems like a pretty political take on a wikipedia article, and none of it seems to take issue with the facts presented in the wikipedia article either. Just general mistrust of wikipedia construed as "whitewashing" which isn't even a correct use of that term in this day and age.

It's a shame that some consider "we shouldn't celebrate the biggest mass murderer in the modern age" to be "a pretty political take"

Uh, it leaves out a lot about Mao, very little of it good. When it comes to stories of terrible behavior, Mao is the gift that keeps on giving. I mean, who declares war on a type of bird? Who needs his widow to take some of the blame for his cultural revolution after his death? He is history's most prolific murderer after all.

So an article with 70% good facts???

His only saving grace is that he killed his own people so the rest of the countries didn't attack him, despite his best efforts to the contrary.
