But you and they are calling maoism and dengism "basically the same thing". That's about half a degree from calling communism and capitalism the same thing. With Chinese characteristics for both, of course. Anybody who knew China would know exactly why I picked 40 years. It's 2 very different governments. So I get that you'd consider them "the enemy" in both cases but could this be a teachable moment? How has America typically done when we wade into shit we don't understand, perfectly convinced that we're the good guys? How has it typically worked out for the 'liberated'?
