I do not apologize for this. Of course, I will ask a moderator to delete this thread, although only as soon as you guess the communist leader on my profile picture. . .
He knew that no nation could industrialize in only a few years.
He knew that although mass deceit was effective in war, it would be useless in famine.
He knew that the military could only be a conduit of justice once removed from Maoism.
He knew that the well-being of the Chinese people was more important than the party.
Although he received little in the way of education from his peasant background, he was a genius, bringing victory after victory to China. During the Great Leap Forward, he criticized Mao for being blinded by his ideology, at the expense of, during the Cultural Revolution, his life. Fake communists rule from the top, real communists rule from the bottom.
