Mao Zedong Biography

[SpicyHam]

True communism can be easily achieved, just not with you guys.

[ILoveKimPearson]

In some ways yeah he let a lot of people die yet he did in some ways established China as a world power... This some what happened in Russia a couple hundred years before when czrs were paying western europeans to help bring the country up to date in technology with the rest of the world powers.. I guess mao didnt like asking for help...

[alanvas11]

long live the idea of mao!!!and all those murdered comrades who came after long live the communist party.down with the real evil of the world who promote lies to the people and who keep the power in the hands of the few >>Damm capitalist-imperialist...the to will fall along with ll there lies

[oildon]

You people are so ignorant it rather saddens me. Sure Mao Zedong made many mistakes in his later rule, a lot of them resulting in MANY unfortunate deaths. However, you people neglect to realize all the hardship he went through to unify China. Later on, when he was still in power, he made some VERY poor decisions. However, he wasn't a tyrant and didn't really intend to murder so many people. Because of his power, he grew blind and ended up killing a lot through his ignorant decisions.

[toothpick587]

haha, at first I thought, at the beginning, you said that mao was a genius at not *thinking* instead of *sinking*. lol, which could, ironically, be argued the other way :)

[wanggok]

Long live Mao in hell !!

[EnergizerBunny804]

I am something of a commuinist, in that I believe it is an achievable goal, if not in my life time, no class, no government, you're right though, great on paper, hardly applicable in practicallity, other than society's such as the french commune I suppose. I respect Mao's words as a philosopher, but as a leader he was monstrous.

[metalgearanarchist]

mao took alot of his ideas from stalin and the soviet model which was not socialist in principle. two i can think of off hand was his enforcement of collectivization of agricultural which stalin enforced in ukraine killing millions as well and the personality cult which many mainstream marxists were against. north korea is a model similar to that of mao's and stalin's. this is why they are carbon copies of the soviet model and not true socialist countries.

[yote470]

Good video.

[laserpoopify]

you forgot to say he killed more than anyone in history and he was a serial rapist psychopath.

[gardenofdavid]

The most evil man of the man's history.史上最邪恶的人！

[willcreep]

Propagandao of Mao? don't do any personal worship shit. Mao is only a commander only knows how to fight with others. He is an ultra-left guy. Anything in an extreme side will cause disaster. He tried to destroy all the right-wing thought during culture revolution in China. Without his retard culture revolution and his fucking stupid Maoist, China will be a much more opener country.

[RICHARDTOMLEY10WHARF]

dont see much of his army of whores ,did he have them executed

[comercial1976]

Europe and America are still feudal and medieval ideologically, because they libel and demonize other cultures. To this extent, China is more advanced

[chuashusheng]

c an the fuking amercian pay the money the own china before they say anything...just think about who is the 1 forking out most of the money to save the fuking USA

[zenhorses]

Mao Zedong was an asshole who was responsible for the greatest act of genocide in history( more than Stalin and Hitler combined.) It was because of him billions od Chinese citizens are beaten in the streets daily because they are aware of their abusive government. He was the cause for the Tianamien Square massacre and it's his fault for destroying Chinese traditions and removing citizens rights. And he is the reason why innocent Chinese people are thrown into factories to work for pennies.

[gameragodzilla]

i am chinese, and the son of people who left china and came to the U.S

I endorse this message. God DAMN the Communist Party! Mao's burning in hell as we speak.

[glasgolatt]

OMG,talk about sugar coating this mass murderer

[MammasBoy1992]

@4days4curry i have to say this project sounds awesome. when i was at school i was forced to do one on winston churchill

[wurstwasser85]

@ lk113231955

It doesn't make any sense writing to a credulously condom eating cunt like you.

ps: this is my last message to you

Im only wirting to people which are able to confute my "shit" :-)

[Ninaanii]

@wurstwasser85 Times weren't really "peaceful." Mao is neither good nor bad. Sure he did some really cruel things but he did try to make China better & led them during times of crisis when Japan was trying to take over. That is why if you ask a Chinese person today whether Mao was good or bad. It is hard to say. He was human afterall.

[wurstwasser85]

@ lk113231955

you are not making any arguments to underline your believe. You are a poor person, because you believe everything without seeing any negative aspects.

Mao is the greatest mass murderer in worlds history and you can't disclaim this fact.

The reason chinese people love him is that they have no other choice !

[wurstwasser85]

This monster killed over 70 milion people (in peace times) !

I don't understand how some people can call him a great leader.

[lk113231955]

Because he IS a great leader and you are an asshole. !!

[wurstwasser85]

@ lk113231955

That's a very intelligent answer.

Only a manipulated puppet of the KP without any brain can write this kind of shit . :-)

[lk113231955]

@wurstwasser85 Your stupid brain which is full of shit cant understand my "shit"? Stop shitting your shit from your mouth, asshole. Mao is the greatest person in P.R.China, Chinese people loves him cause he leads them to the peace time.

[HARUHlIST]

Deng Xiao Ping is much better than Mao.

[xwy1234567]

反对毛泽东的都是魑魅魍魉

[yammyspeed13]

Looks like Obama has his work cut out for him.

[nightcrowred]

Thank you for this report, because I knew NOTHING about Mao. This was very informative. Thank you again for this.

[josserif556]

Mao was the biggest asshole in the 20th century.

毛澤東是中國的歷史罪人

也是你們共產黨的叛徒

[ren2ren2]

mao kill 35 million person during 1949-1976. he is the top guy of the top 10 evil person of the 20th century.

His picture is still hung on the wall of beijing.

[ren2ren2]

Doesanyone know that Mao ask his wife to take out his shit from his body by her fingers?

[gaker3456789]

I'm Chinese. Mae was a great leader of China.

[cyklonb1989]

if mao died in 1949 then yes he will be.

[wscparks]

best study mao before making comment

the chinese are best to judge and so far so good

[shiyun110]

中国自建国以来!

可曾侵略过任何一个国家?

可曾在任何一个国家驻军?

可曾在任何一个国家殖民?

在边界冲突胜利后,有哪次不是先主动退军,后通过谈判解决??

白种人呢??他们除了掠夺,还会干什么?

少拿所谓民主说事了,中国人自己有自己的生活方式,自己有自己的­办法,用不着你们来指手画脚!

你们的民主,不过是为了掠夺方便而起的好名字而已!

[iaziian]

Mao needs to rot in hell. Damn communist bastard.

[Aynrand115]

Mao was not a hero,more like a killer instead. I bet most of the people that say a Socialist or Communist rule is better than a Democracy rule,even though they never lived in a communism regine. Mao was a son of bitch and coward, thats far form a hero. But not forget, did you know that mao killed more than hitler. THINK ABOUT WHO YOU ARE CALLING A HERO

[FHomeBrew]

Yeah but Hitler was a racist bastard

[bangonya]

you definatley didn't read time magazine....

NOT

[SouthSugarMan]

The Greater Monster the world ever seen!

[nickglais]

Read Mobo Gao - The Battle for China's Past published by Pluto books and you would not talk such Jung Chang nonsense

[icefiredarksector748]

Outstanding patriot. May he burn for all eternity.

[icefiredarksector748]

How about "murderer". Lets just forget he killed around 60,000 people. I read a biography about Mao and it made realize how dangerous liberalism can be.

[Xagmot]

Communism, it made you realize how dangerous communism can be.

[AquaticIdealist]

You mean corrupted Communism. True communism can never be achieved by humans, but that theory in itself is quite hopefully, but it's just a theory.

[Aynrand115]

Communism is great on paper but not in reality

[SupremePenguinTone]

@Aynrand115 You could say the same for Capitalism.

[Hayhalls]

boring

[LiveLaughLoveAlwayz]

Mao used PROPAGANDA.

(Brainwashing)

[sonnyha1]

mao is a stupid communist atheist ....fucker

[Xagmot]

Yeah, you tell em'.

[Dealit707]

MAO IS EVIL!

[bier9999]

Mao was a great man. He believed that unless China had nuclear weapons of its own, it would constantly be under the threat of nuclear blackmail from the United States. Even though millions of Chinese died so Mao can obtain Russian nuclear technology, at least we are not bullied like Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. today.

[NoMONKEYS]

oh ok thank you for the facts

[KarlMarxPropaganda]

long live the communism

[scarletghoul]

this is a good video, but not completely accurate

[tastybeast]

i hate communists but not communism

[tastybeast]

it is hard for me just to assume that mao was just a tyrant for people is see as a revalutionary icon of china and on the other hand as a evil dictator so i guiss its really is wat u think of him but for me i have no opinoin on him

[okpapereat]

i believe mao stole the name red army... I believe that the Soviet called their army red army, so it was called the Soviet Red Army it was also a hockey team in the soviet union aswel but anyways you got a nice presentation there

[youbooyou]

It was not stealing, its was completely borrowing. They also tried to copy the 5 year plan of the soviets. China back then in one period saw Soviet as their big brother.

[loyola109]

A genius....A GENIUS!!! What! The sick ideology of Communism has claimed more lives than any other ideology in history! Mao Zedong used treachery, backstabbing, and lies to gain power. He is responsible from 20,000,000 to even 75,000,000 (based on Jung Chang's Book) lives. Not to mention the lives lost under Stalin, Pol Pot, the various Eastern European dictators, Che Guevera, Kim Jong and all the other nefariouis dictators, Communism is the ideology of death. Hitler was not even close as bad.

[wstcw]

4days4curry, this project of yours is quite good, but try to be objective and leave out comments like "he is a genius"． Overall, it's a good introductory video to Mao Zedong.

[freedomkira520]

大家唔好以为我只係说淫贼毛泽东坏话, 我也有唱"东方红"歌颂它!

它死後真的救了中国! 大家一起唱!

东方红,太阳升!

中国死了个毛泽东!

它为人民某幸福!

它是中国大救星!

[lingqi1985]

Our Chairman was just against imperialism, western people therefore don't like him of course. Because of him there is a China and western countries could no longer enslave China, he is our hero forever.

[dud808]

what hell are you on about Mao Zedong formed one of the if not biggest imperialistic nations on the planet, you might of heard of it; it's a little place called the Peoples Republic of China???. He is also responsible for China's massive population today that forces families to only have one child, and also anyone who thinks communism can work has no brain and needs to read a history book (if they possibly can)

[bubles0nskye]

Mao Zedong was a murderer...what a loser!

[altai67]

mao : red killer.

SHIT !!!

[brokensocialism]

毛泽东 (大部份人称它为 大肚毛, 肥东) 1893 -- 1976

雄性! 死後更不能入士为安! 死无葬身之地! 现在已被中国人製成标本! 一般绝种动物也有此下场!

它是卖国贼! 马克思, 列宁走狗! 在全中国人民食草食树根导致骨瘦如柴的时候, 它的身体也能长肉! 贱肉横生! 从1949 到 1976 年! 它身上脂肪之多! 是全中国第一! 有人称它是肥猪, 亦有人说它是马克思的狗奴才! 其实!

"毛泽东是禽兽都不如的杂种"

有支持者说不是每一只伟(猪)都是十全十美的! 看清楚! 也是否定! 但最差就是它了! 只可惜! 它不是伟人! 是杂种!

可能死後不能安息, 亦可能是被它害死的中国人向它报复! 现在中国已改变成资本主义社会! 国内很多中国人更不想再说起这只禽兽! 只有极少数支持者说一些好话! 但基本上对它已经否定! 亦说它是错误的!

这个龟蛋如果不出生, 中华民族早就复兴了!

[kkkal1987]

我狂你全家。祝你全家死死光

[antisocialism]

中国真的很幸运！原来共狗死亡会为中国人民带来温饱！中国自从那­两个自称什麽什麽伟人的共狗毛泽东及周恩来死後！中国人民开始有­饱饭食了！

为什麽周恩来没生子女呢？

因为它跟那个什麽毛泽东是同性恋，所以没生小孩！

一般共产党也是心理变态！各位要小心言行！

[rafaeldemonfox]

youre 100000000000% right my friend!!!

[chinesevietguy]

Whats the point in arguing with these Americans and westerners hypocrites.They are the ones brainwashed in thinkin that Americas was "discovered by Europeans" .They are just so frustrated that they failed to separate China .

[TheBestTroller]

@chinesevietguy Nice try buddy. but if anyone is brainwashed its the Chinese for admiring a man who starved to death 60 million Chinese civilians...

MAO economic plan = epic fail :)

[willcreep]

@chinesevietguy chineseviet? you want china to be another soviet? you motherfucker is stupid enough to stand by soviet, the most evil union in this world. dumbass, go worship your killer Mao and let him kill your ability of independent thinking. People like you are those extreme left idiots in China, and they are the bug obstructing the democratic progress in China. go to hell, motherfucker

[branthehun]

@chinesevietguy  First of all SHUT UP....we dont believe that get ur facts straight! UR a retard and wish you lived in a America!

[exccp]

China's greatest terrorist, Mao was such as bastard.

[MarxBakuninMe]

Marx - yes

Lenin and Mao - no

[Tsukae]

Long live communism! Fight for the revolution!

[accelerator1]

毛禽獸這豬狗不如的畜生在地獄裡被燒得呱呱叫,黨員們下去救你們­的神啊!

[gpei0984]

Is that the nature of human beings always fond of killer and living Saddam?

[swanlovepink]

你才是畜生。

[exccp]

又一个愚民政策的产物，丑陋的中国人。

[OzJackpot]

It's easy to condemn.God's missionarys went to China before Communism.Westen style democracy was introducted before Communism as well,why people choose to believe Mao instead of God and the Nationalist Party.

Would God help China to cast off the feudality and colonies?Why Mao had the power to lead a poor and undeveloped China fought off US and its pets in the Korean War.Amazing wasnt it.A great man dont have to be a perfect man,but he or she has to contribut a great deal to his or her country.

[cbwong99]

The Great Leap Forward was from 1956 to 1960 instead of 1966 to 1970, please pay attention!

[DarthNihilus]

1958...not '56.

[voltshock99]

Compared to Chaing Kai-Shek, Mao was the lesser of two evils. China has an incredibly violent history, and his actions are far from unique in the history of that nation. Sure, Mao killed millions of people, but give me one famous national leader who hasn't.

[yhw111]

Mao killed a million to save a billion from destructions by enemy forces. Many bad things he did were outweight by the good ones. No too bad for a leader.

[Andy898899]

Well, I'm a Chinese, and I'm only 19 years old, but I know the "truth" you are talking about. I trust my government as my father and grandfather does. They did it for a reason. You cannot talk about history in that way, because you evade the time it happeneds.

[kayuraaa]

That's just an excuse. U and ur family r so used to persuading urselves with these excuses to beleive in those craps CCP gave u.

Everything is done for a reason. His reason is that his own power is his first priority. And becuz of that, he made millions of Chinese ppl suffer. So, burn in hell.

[TheKillerEng]

Well, I am a Chinese, and I'm 40, and I think Mao and the Communist party is the reason why China is still lagging behind most countries in the world. Even after 20 years of economic "miracle", the average Chinese still only makes less than 10% of their Taiwan/HK neighbor. Why? b/c Mao and his cronies were busy with social experiments, destroying traditional values, etc. They did it for a reason-to stay in power at the expense of ruining millions of lives, including those of my family.

[grapplerke]

Mao was great from the 1920's to the 1950's. Mao was an ignorant tyrant from 1950's to 1970's.

[OzJackpot]

Mao was ignorant? Have you read any of his articles and poem? I trust me before 1940s there are few people even had a chance to go to school thanks to westen and Japanese invaders.

[FightTyranny]

Shame on MAO ZEDONG !

RIP to those killed by his rule and many like him

[Osprey1919]

good video, very imformative 10/10

[PRIMALRAGE333]

There are hundreds of photos, you can see them in youtube, you can see corpses people but anyway there are not so many cus in China all TV are Governments and if you had a film like this in your possesion then his Government will kill u, but there are still many photos about it. I think you should read Lao She dead and u will get a surprise (MAO KILLED HIM TOO). Also u can see chinese economy, it began to grow fast with Deng Xiaoping

[sunshine177674]

Strike down CCP,or China will be falling forever.The most chinese people in continent are poor and ignorant.They are cheated generation by generation.

[ChristianSocialist]

Mao Zedong can teach us a lot. He did great things, and bad. We can learn a lot from both.

[racekidishere]

during Mao's era, over millions chinese were killed by their government. until today most of chinese still don't know this truth.

[Yorobun]

I dun understand the english...

I prefer British.. speaking too fast.

[Chicothechef]

He was a visionary. Maoism is alot different from what Mao himself actually performed. He forgot where he came from...

[730jimmy]

Yes, it's tough under Mao but no pain is no gain for the Chinese people. Without Mao China will continue to be invaded, divided, corrupt and weak under Nationalist Chiang. History speaks for itself. China strength today is the foundation of Mao. All Chinese knows that. Give me a foreigner who don't criticize your leader -- I give you a weak leader!

[TSM9356]

thankyou ever so much for this

[patient0Studios]

20m dead in china is equalent to about 23k here, or 5k during the industrialisation, unfortunatly way more then 5 thousand here starved to death during ours. Put it in perspective. By the way if he really killed 70million+ people why arent there countless movies on the subject, hundreds of photos, and hundreds more of survivors. Like the holocaust? Think about it

[GaaraDeSuna]

Mao was a wise man and a great revolutionist even if he was a bad man

[jspel460]

The mistake is called Comminism. Guaranteed to kill millions every time it's tried. Capitalism is the only moral system of free exchange of goods and ideas.

[FlyingBurritoMan]

Not necessarily.

[GVDkomop]

Mao wasn't the murderer, there were mistakes in the system. It were the ppl who worked for mao. If Mao is so bad why there is a portrat of mao @ Beijing.. Mao was a great chairman, he did make mistakes, bush make mistakes too.. Mao was 40% procent wrong en 60% right,, Zhong Guo!!!

[chenrlk]

Only an idiot will believe Jung's book. A serious research should use facts to form a conclusion, but she was just sifting the materials to support her opinion.

70 million? That is just a number to attact eyeball. Unfortunately, many ignorant people, without any previous knowledge about China and its history before reading the fiction, are so willing to believe that.

[chenrlk]

There were indeed a lot of people who died from the miserable results caused by Mao's terrible policies, such as famine due to Great Leap Forward and mass mistreat due to Culture Revolution. But the number was overly exaggerated. When Katrina happened, the New Orleans mayor was saying tens of thousands of people got killed, but it turned out to be just a few hundred. In a situation you see many people dying from something abnormal, you simply tend to exaggerate it.

[chenrlk]

Mao is a unique figure in Chinese history. His achievement in making China an independent country and a world power is enormous. His bad decision in his late years also caused huge loss to China. For Chinese people, who were bullied by western countries for over a century, Mao's achievement has been much more important than his fault.

[atjiawi]

70 millions... in The Unknown Story of MAO by Jung CHang n Jon Halliday

[littbarskicik]

MAO İS GREAT KİLLER.. i cant understand. how do you like the person who killes a 20-40 million people?

[ultradumbass]

unlike most versions of communist however, you were allowed to actually write a letter of opinion for example on asking if you could get more employees for the market and he may or may not allow you and you were allowed to make your own food after giving enough to the government. because in most countries the food is provided by the state.

[chromelemon]

1 minor note, in the 1:25ish mark the narrator says that in 1928 Mao established the Peoples Republic of China(PRC), when in fact that is a fallacy, in around 1928 Mao helped declare the Soviet Republic of China, the the PRC would not be established until 1949

[runamallkus]

Malditos dirigentes revisionistas vendidos al capital, se olvidaron de Mao y sus enseñanzas !!!

[johnyo908]

Wasnt mao zedong a comminist maybe thats why everyone hates communists Communists= bad people

[museumbone]

Nice job!  Impressive summary.

[charmedmatzzie]

Why do you all hate China?

I don't hate China.. I just don't like Mao, and leave it at that. Interesting video. :)

[charlesdarwinxxx]

CCP: party of Red Cockroaches. Free china now

Beware the sleeping dragon. we should have left it asleep.

[02tonyl]

And btw, ye China is nothing and not important either, she is just merely Australia and Japan's largest trading partner, thats all.

[02tonyl]

Yup agree with you, who cares about those Chinese, oops why those western media keep mentioning about economy, trade deficit,market stock exchange. China sux ass major.

[02tonyl]

Ye Chinese people are very ugly, that is why a lot of white american men are running after those Chinese women,Who cares about those Chinese in your class, they are just a bunch of whitewashed with inferiority complex who forgot their root. Ye China sux ass so bad ,very stupid thats why she holds most of US treasury bonds.

[02tonyl]

Stop talking like a racist filo. Ye too bad no one cares about China, but you have to do a speech about China in your class, how come ??? I thought China is ignored.Stop contradicting yourself.

[filozfinest23]

CHINA. worst country ever!!!! people r ugly. no one cares about china.they only put it in our syllabus coz we couldnt run away from chinese people. soo many of them!!!!! i need this for my speach on mao zedong. CHINA sucks. if ur offended then u should b. even chinese people in my class hate CHINA.

[huinan84]

this video is retard.

[thanks88]

Is MC auther mass murderer in korea war or after WW2 american vertern treatment? Is Washington true hero of American independence no british puppet? How do you know Maozedong is murderer, just cuz west portray him in their own propanganda?

[bg24955]

high school homework

[crufinia]

Great Leap was during 1958 to 1960 .. wtf is this kind of info! wat kind of facts is this! Mao is a hero initially but became a tyrant after the 1949 revolution.. his marxism became very radical and he is very power hungry. he is both the Lenin and Stalin of china

[kq500]

Indeed, mao killed lots of people, but he saved more, he is 70 percent angel and 30 percent devil. It is well recognized in China

[LeftyHenry]

I hope you failed as that was terrible and factually flawed.

[Themaoistthinker]

Look at her sources! She makes outrageous claims about battles never happening, according to documents no one can find, etc. This kind of "scholarship" would never be tolerated about U.S. leaders. But in Amerikkka you can say anything you want as long as it makes communism look bad.

[emorgado84]

Jung Chang is not bullshit at all. He is clever, intelligent and is not afraid to say the truth while many chinese people who loves Mao want to believe and being ignorant about a horrible person(Mao) who killed over 70 million chinese people. If you don't know history don't put ignorant comments.

[Themaoistthinker]

China made great advances under Mao. You need to read "Daily Life in Revolutionary China" and forget the Jung Chang bullshit.

[emorgado84]

Jung Chang is not bullshit at all. He is clever, intelligent and is not afraid to say the truth while many chinese people who loves Mao want to believe and being ignorant about a horrible person(Mao) who killed over 70 million chinese people. If you don't know history don't put ignorant comments.

[rozone27]

Don't you mean she?

[oliverdulwich]

Hah, that's ironic look at china's record on free speech, and to be honest you're understanding shows great ignorance, mao was a selfish tyrant who wanted power at all costs, the cultural revolution for example who did that benefit apart from mao, and of course the great leap forward where mao killed millions for neglegent desire to become a super power and be on the world stage, for god's sake read Jung changs book 'mao the unknown story'

[4days4curry]

well it's a school project, so we're not really suppose to show our opinion about the man. it's just one of those projects where you just present the facts and that's it.

[neolikesfood]

although let me add, it is not your fault for not being presented with the accurate historical picture of Mao because the Western bourgeois educational system is in place to promote capitalism. Blame the schools, not the children!

[neolikesfood]

typical bourgeois understanding of history.

it should be noted also that the life expectancy under Mao almost DOUBLED from 35 to 69.

[ELDevaux]

Clever girl. nice touch towards the end with the translation thing.

[Chiu4chinese]

stupid mao, 50 million...just sad than kyou for the video.
