re: #166 Dark_Falcon

“MrPaulRevere” over at the Other Place put up a post asking about how I could support Charles in light of a comment Charles made about Mao-Tse Tung. As this post did not hurl insults at me, I’m going to answer. Here’s the link to the post he’s bringing up:

‘MPR’ insinuated that there was something wrong with this post. Quite the contrary. Mao was a monster and Charles has never said anything to indicate that he feels otherwise. However, Charles was saying that even that monster had some worthwhile insights. That is not a problematic statement at all. MrPaulRevere, your interpretation is in error. But since you did not insult me, I have worked to not insult you. But Charles is no fool, but instead is an intelligent and insightful man.

He’s digging up a comment from 2009? Dude needs to get a life.

He needs to face the facts. Love him or hate him Chairman Mao is studied by people throughout the world and by people in different professions. This is done for a multitude of reasons. He is studied by the US military for his military history, tactics, and what some would call his genius as a military strategist:
