If you think Mao Zedong’s Cultural Revolution is ancient history, think again. James Lindsay explains how the tactics Mao used to take over and ruin China in the 20th century are alive and well in America, just under a different name. Don’t miss it!

Maoism is already here. Woke is Maoism with American characteristics.

One more thing to remember about Mao. He believed that the “Revolution” must never end. The continuous eternal revolution requires moving the goal posts on a regular basis. This means one can never be sure of how to comply with he ever changing rules. This is why Mao moved from the “Great Leap Forward” to the “Cultural Revolution” and after his death to the “One-Child Policy”. This is also why the leftist mandated language keeps changing; this is why they move from abortion to child sexual mutilation to pedophilia. This brings up another feature of communism in general. It doesn’t just run by hate.
It rules by terror. Lenin called it the Red Terror, and no revolution could exist without it.
“There is only one way in which the murderous death agonies of the old society and the bloody birth throes of the new society can be shortened, simplified and concentrated, and that way is revolutionary terror.”
