Funny how these ‘historical’ articles, which are really common knowledge to anyone with a passing interest in the ww2 pacific theater, pop up when Japan is currently beefing up its military to counter the increasing threat of China. Perhaps a few articles on the seedier side of the chinese cultural revolution are in order.

Great point. The Chinese government is a direct descendant of Mao’s government, which means it’s still at the top of the leaderboard with over 75 million killed.
