Collectivize machete slaughters :v)

Local party leaders, for their part, conspired to cover up shortfalls and reassign blame in order to protect their own lives and positions.[citation needed]

In visits to Henan province in 1958, Mao observed what local officials claimed was increases in crop yield of one thousand to three thousand percent achieved, supposedly, in massive 24-hour pushes organized by the officials which they called "sputnik launches". But the numbers were faked, and so were the fields that Mao observed, which had been carefully prepared in advance of Mao's visit by local officials, who removed shoots of grain from various fields and carefully transplanted them into a field prepared especially for Mao, which appeared to be a bumper crop

BestGore is shit

You fucks need some Ostfront waifus

The local officials became trapped by these sham demonstrations to Mao, and exhorted the peasants to reach unattainable goals, by "deep ploughing and close planting," and other techniques. This ended up making things much worse, the crop failed completely, leaving barren fields. No one was in a position to challenge Mao's ideas as incorrect, so peasants pulled out their bedding and coats into the fields, added seeds and water, and after they sprouted, buried the materials under the soil once the seedlings were high enough.[40]:122

In a similar manner to the massive Soviet-created famine in Ukraine (the Holodomor), doctors were prohibited from listing "starvation" as a cause of death on death certificates. This kind of deception was far from uncommon; a famous propaganda picture from the famine shows Chinese children from Shandongprovince ostensibly standing atop a field of wheat, so densely grown that it could apparently support their weight. In reality, they were standing on a bench concealed beneath the plants, and the "field" was again entirely composed of individually transplanted stalks.

Amartya Sen puts this famine in a global context, arguing that lack of democracy is the major culprit: "Indeed, no substantial famine has ever occurred in a democratic country—no matter how poor." He adds that it is "hard to imagine that anything like this could have happened in a country that goes to the polls regularly and that has an independent press. During that terrible calamity the government faced no pressure from newspapers, which were controlled, and none from opposition parties, which were absent."[43]

On the other hand, Sen points out that in India the numbers of "excess mortality" regularly surpass those of China during 1958–1961

Yes, Juche is Communist

Fuggin right *wrongers* amirite?

Because it's not Capitalist if a Socialist country does it. Failing to see the irony of such a sad post only shows how narrow minded you are.

Juche is a fake term designed as an excuse to cover up the corruption a communistic system creates

No u

Xd

Yes, because a lack of state and a lack of class structure inevitably breed state-corruption. Are you fuckin brain dead?

Joseph Stalin, leader of the Soviet Union, set in motion events designed to cause a famine in the Ukraine to destroy the people there seeking independence from his rule. As a result, an estimated 7,000,000 persons perished in this farming area, known as the breadbasket of Europe, with the people deprived of the food they had grown with their own hands.

Too many chromies, not enough homies?

The creation of such a society would need government intervention on a fucking Big scale

That's the argument

And bigger government creates corruption you moron

yall are faggots

Yes, because a lack of class structure and state lead to inevitable state corruption.

why aren't we banned yet ?

Our mum gay

@Dikke_blastbeat Dutch?

Are you retarded? @InfraRed LXIX you just admitted huge government intervention was needed

I find this amusing. I don't see why anyone else wouldn't. Seeing as you clearly don't know what you're talking aout

Yes @N͝o҉ma̶d͘ Sca̢v̕eng͘er

Mooi

k

NANI?

Huh

The lack of social class need to be enforced by the governement. Social distinction arises naturally in a society or in nature.

Nederland is de shit

Yes because Democratic-Confederalism enforces it.

Zit je op L of R van *het Spectrum*?

democratic confederalism = state
