“Introducing individualism into socialism, which is based on collectivism, is tantamount to taking poison.”
“Libertarianism is like an invisible moth gnawing away at the people’s political integrity.”

I have to say, being in China and away from constantly having to hear pro-imperialist and extremely reactionary nonsense is extremely refreshing. The main downside is that a lot of people have quite… feudal(?) thoughts about marriage.
If anything, he believes the imperialist propaganda that the Yuan and Qing dynasties weren’t actually China – invented specifically to justify the Japanese occupation.
Go for it.
