Tell me why there are no toilet in India?
Blame it on democracy?
Go acquaint yourself with some facts instead of being a cheap troll:

If you look at it now, it turned out somewhat good for them. Didn't it?Although the process may had been hellish.
Terrible argument my friend. Basically the moral problem is the opinions of those innocent lives lost (at unfathomable scales still largely unknown in any degree of accuracy) are simply totally inaccessible. They have been wiped out....they never were asked was it worth it for them to die (really in the end that is the final solution extreme authoritarians use to silence the voices of the "lessers" permanently), and see everyone around them, loved ones included, die too in front of their eyes in the most horrific ways imaginable....for some perceived silver lining later.
Then the generation now does not even acknowledge this, but continues to delude themselves in veneration of the mass murderer, his portrait still up there at an edifice that pre-dates him by centuries and millenia, the very existence and triumph of civilisation that gave this land the name China, or "Middle Kingdom" when feeling positive pride.
Surely his victims souls looking down upon that scene would be horrified and revolted....but it is the sad tragedy we (on Earthly realm )can never listen to their side of the story, not now...not ever.
There was a scene in Babylon 5, a great sci-fi series with much underlying philosophy....that I am suddenly reminded of, when a fortune teller tells the protagonist (and later Tyrant)....that many voices cry his name in the future vision.....and he asks "my followers?".....and the mage replies....."No....your victims".
while we suffered threat from Soviet and the great Famine.
Ah yes the great famine that Mao kept exporting grain to cover up. Grain that could have fed those cannibalising their own loved ones at that very moment....and now safely tucked away in your little insulated cocoon of space and time...you use that same filthy lie of "dulce et decorum est, pro patria mori"....that everyone outside China somehow knew of the turmoil China was facing and "attacked" anyway (because they are just evil since they are non-middle kingdom barbarians)....simply to add to some "long march" feelz of moral superiority you lot have always craved for and cannot seem to ever satiate.
You do much honour keeping that portait right up there where it is. Truly you have invented a new religion to replace the old, for simply the sake of replacing the old....with no regard to what you are destroying and what you are replacing it with. Mao is proud of you....you are a fine Red Guard indeed.
Irony is not a word that translates well into Chinese.
The Chinese used to know such nuance well. Confucious himself once said "If we do not know life....how can we know death?" . Many of their ancient epics harness this elder knowledge and wit as well.
But you see, the soul force running in these cultural treasures have been nearly completely stripped from the Chinese mentality now. They are somewhat of an undead now, running amok, devoid of what connects them wholeheartedly and positively to their history.....other than that which can be emotionally useful for the Mao, might makes right complex.
You really need to delve into deep conversation with the Chinese outside this complex (largely found outside the CPC political suffocation) to get a real idea of whats going on... the deep disdain they have for the mainland today....not on a reactionary level, but something "rotten within the state of denmark" kind of thing.
