"Without him, there would be no new China, period." I'm sorry to say this but I consider that this is a profound insult to the Chinese people. Consider corrupt Chiang Kai Shek and the whole feudal system in which the landlords mostly lead lives of luxury and their tenants starved. Only one man out of the 450,000,000 Chinese people of the day was capable of overthrowing that bad system!! All of the rest were inadequate for such a task? Which religion is that from?? It's certainly not Marx-Leninism. It's not even the thoughts of Mao Tse-Tung. The historic fact was that he did have rivals for the leadership of the party. He swept them out. The last serious one was Liu Shao-chi, as you know. Were these rivals all bad men or incompetent? The cult of the individual is Fascism, it's not scientific at all. What do you hope for in the China of the near future? The rise of a new figure whose face is plastered everywhere, who is compared to the sun in the sky, etc? Without whom we couldn't have industrialized, kept the imperialists out, established a great educational system etc., etc. An end to the incessant bickering so characteristic of democracy. A people united behind their godlike leader?
