50 years after his death, the father of Communist China still inspires” was recently published by the French-language arm of the CBC.
It documents Chinese Mao fanatics who gathered in Shaoshan (Mao’s hometown) to publicly revere and remember the architect of the Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution, which combined claimed the lives of between 40 and 80 million people.
Given the adoration of the people who are the focus of the coverage, the story strikes an undeniably nostalgic, positive tone — which has left many upset — and Conservative MPs were quick to pick up on the story, condemning the state broadcaster for such flagrant pro-Mao/pro-China propaganda.
They know which side their bread is buttered on.
“The article says nostalgia for Mao’s egalitarian ideals is growing as China grapples with economic pressures and inequality.”
That doesn’t make any sense. Or maybe it does as those who are left out of a rapidly growing economy (i.e., the losers) want the government to equalize the playing field by taking away from the others (i.e., the winners). Let’s hope they stay out of the 40-80 million this time.
“nostalgia for Mao’s egalitarian ideals”
Ideals which reduced every human being under his power to the lowest common denominator.
paraphrasing Mao Zedong: “My way or your dead body is going under the highway.”
go ahead CCP, do it again.

Well, your Canadian government keeps enacting Maoist C-Bills punishing Free Speech … so enjoy your Canadian-styled Maoism Canadian comrades.
“… so enjoy your Canadian-”
Do you enjoy your Maoist edicts from Chairman Newsom in Sacramento? No?
Seems Chairman Newsom is going for a run at the U.S. Presidency in 2028.
We’ll see how the midterms turn out.
Yes we will … and once again … we will see exactly how deliberately inaccurate all those polls were which show RED States were “suddenly in play” to turn Blue … evaporate into the ether.
Show me a Liberal that hasn’t been to China and I’ll bet that that is one Liberal that never runs for PM.
Exactly. It goes back decades.
