I posted on the response video prior to viewing this. This video does demostrate the student's contradiction in speech. I do not think it makes the student look like an idiot and I do not believe any mal intent was meant by the TFP. I feel sorry for any hurt feelings or formalities transgressed.
First of all, Mao was a great leader in the sense that he managed to lead China for so long in a path of destruction. Sure he was a aweful person and ordered mass murder, that's a given. Second, you can cut up any video to make it look like you win an argument but you still didn't. Third, TFP did not attain the permission of three people featured in this video. all three of us ask you in the name of Jesus Christ to remove the video.
This video serves a very good purpose and shouldn't be taken personally. There is nothing "great" about any communist leader -ever! Think about this: Communism is not evil because it kills, but it kills BECAUSE IT IS EVIL! It is INTRINSICALLY evil and cannot produce any good. It is - in its very essence - opposed to the nature of man and every law of God.
David, you can't just proclaim that communism is intrinsically evil. It was the people that implemented communism like Mao, Lenin and Stalin who were definitely evil. Atrocities can occur in free societies like the United States, where we held Africans under slavery for 300 years and murdered Native Americans at the same time, all to attain a free, good, and christian society. I am proud to be a capitalist American but I'm not as unforgivably disdainful of communism as you are.
Well, Vatsano, I suggest you visit any country that suffered the ravages of communism as I have and study the period closely, and then come back and dispute that it is intrinsically evil. Please name the last communist leader that was a really good guy. But more - study its essence, not just the effects, and you will see that it could not possibly ever lead to anything but the abject misery, poverty, and political revolutionary repressive dictatorship. This is not "disdainful". This is reality.
As you point out, Communism is an ineffective economic system in the ways that it has been thus far implemented. But you still haven't come remotely close to proving that communism as an economic system is intrinsically evil, only that the leaders of communist countries are evil.
TFP student action was right about Mao: the things that he did came from his ideas.
Communism is not an economic system, but a philosophy that encompasses the entirety of human action and existence, robbing man of every natural right: private property, family, religion, the very right to life! It does so by virtue of what it is. Stalin, Mao, and all that followed couldn't ALL get it wrong.(?) Know the tree by its fruits. "Real" communism, if realised, would be even worse.
Wow that guy in the blue shirt has no idea what he's talking about, I hope he's not a poly sci major or international affairs concentration or anything like that. That'd be bad. And that guy in the goofy aviators is saying some ridiculous stuff.
Most Chinese people are apolitical (if you ask foreign Chinese students in your university you will find out this.). They don't very much care about the word on the label is communism or capitalism, they care about stability and prosperity, cuz this once great nation suffered from chaos and poverty for 200 years. Once you know this psyche, you will better understand Chinese growth in this century.
HAHA another victory for the TFP. KEEP FIGHTING AND ILL KEEP PRAYING!

Mao is absolutely a great leader/genius in war, but not very good at manage the operation of a huge country in a modern manner.
China now is even more capitalistic than America, and communism is just the word in books.
