What a difference a few decades has made in the world's perceptions of the CCP. Western politicians and big business interests have found it both convenient and profitable to blame then Chairman Mao Zedong for the mass murders of the Cultural Revolution, while downplaying the role of the CCP, which Mao led. They, along with the mass media in the West, have enthusiastically embraced, and then echoed, the propaganda of the CCP - thus pulling the wool over the eyes of the world. Ever playing the role of compassionate patriots, the Western elite and their lapdog politicians and media have amassed untold trillions of dollars from their unholy alliance with the CCP, at the expense of the average Joe here in the West. The wealthy opportunists sold us the naive notion that by being nice to the Communists, giving our jobs to the CCP, giving the CCP control over our most sensitive technology (even military technology), making them rich and powerful beyond human imagination, that somehow the CCP would be so appreciative that they would stop behaving like Marxists and start behaving like human beings. Now we in the West, being pummeled by the weaponized CCP Virus, are paying the bill for our stupidity with our freedom, our treasure, and our lives.
