That said, it would be hard to say it's the most gruesome, especially with over 4 decades of Maoist brutality to compare it to.
Also, I think a lot of people forget how long China has been around, and how horrific its history has been at points.
I'm thinking of the Taiping Rebellion in particular.
Well, maybe. But I have a difficult time imagining something more depraved than quartering live babies and cooking them up for dinner.
For a healthy side dish, try He Lo Fat.
Starving 20-80 million people on purpose.
This is the sort of thing that American Socialists would do if given the opportunity.
Well, they do say that revolutions eventually eat their own...
Should be. However many Chinese are in denial to save face, or have succumbed to liberal denial.
Was socializing with Chinese who’ve been here for 20+ years.
They ragged on Trump and said they are afraid of him.
I told them they should save their fear of their Chinese Communist party and gov’t that killed 50+ Million of their own citizens in the Cultural Revolution.
They retorted that it was not Mao or the party that murdered so many. It was violent thugs and criminals that did that.
The dumb brain washed idiots refused to acknowledge that the violence was controlled by Mao in order to bring order through terror.
This is why flooding our country with immigrants is destroying us.
So many foreigners have completely different political and moral beliefs, they cannot be trusted to maintain our free republic.

I'm currently reading the book 'Mao: The Unknown Story' written by Jung Chang.
I can't put it down, it is like watching a train wreck. I'm only up to the mid 1930s - before he really earned his way into the pantheon of mass murderers - and he already was a clear sociopathic misanthropic murderer.
He was his god, and the center of his Universe. I can see why he is a role-model and hero to the Progressives. And he is a model of someone who rejects God and puts himself in that place.
Nope. Never heard of it.
I am in my 50’s. I’d never heard of this. Any society that could do this to their own is not really civilized.
I’m in my 50’s and I knew about this long before the internet existed. Back then I bought the local newspaper everyday. I’d spend a week gleaning through the Sunday paper.
“And he is a model of someone who rejects God and puts himself in that place.”
I’m not sure when the Christian missionaries were kicked out, but when China was open again the missionaries went back in, anticipating that there would be no Christians and they would have to start from scratch.
Instead they found a huge underground Christian Church of believers - exponential growth since they had left - millions. I was at a conference and one of the native Chinese gave a talk and ended it saying that the Christians in China prayed that America would see such persecution - so that our faith would increase.
I caught up with him afterwards. “Thank you for your presentation. And thank you for your prayers. But can you knock it off!?”
This story is cover imo.....I know people who were there...
babies are still consumed in china....
during maos “cultural revolution”....50-80 million were killed....the party ORDERED that enemies of the state be EATEN....so Millions were eaten.
During “one child”...extra babies were made into soup...and commune heads would all come to feast....human flesh is still eaten in china....the eater “gains the strength “of the victim “......
This story ....is nothing but “knock down” designed to temper...the truth......eating the “enemies”was used by china as a tool for conversion of young people all over asia...”prove your loyalty to the party”...
It was not localized abhoration....
Islam...eats people.....Africa eats people....China eats people....I know people who have seen it......
oh well
Jeffry Dahmer said a tricep lightly fried in peanut oil tasted best.
Sick freak, if ever hanging was warrented
Oh, he got his better than that...beaten to death in prison by a relative of one of his victims.
Yeah,
I sort of the old way,
Hang em in public and leave em for the vultures
God has done amazing things in China. People like Hudson Taylor, Pastor Hsi, Gladys Alyward (great biographies have been written about these giants of the Faith) may have laid the seed, but I understand that many millions have come to Christ in that land. Numerically speaking, there are probably more Christians in the PRC than America.
I agree though - although no one likes the idea of persecution - I have to admit that history has shown that persecution tends to revitalize the Church ('the seeds are watered by the blood of the martyrs') and unfortunately America has lost her way and we need revitalizing.
Wonder if they were hungry again an hour afterward.
The phrase I saw before is
“The thing about murdering 60 million Chinese is that an hour later you want to murder 60 million Chinese again”.
