Reminds me of that idea that all those "I need feminism because…" signs made a lot of sense if you replaced the start with "I need therapy because…". There was this "joke" that SJW used parts of the Mein Kampf in their rethoric, just replacing "jews" with "patriarchy".

There are definitely many parallels between the Red Guard and SJWs. Both of them operated under similar mentalities with the shared goal of uprooting the cultures that their nations were founded upon. They viciously attacked any dissent while enjoying the backing of the state. But one key difference between SJWs and the Red Guard is solidarity. The Red Guard had a cult leader, Chairman Mao. This allowed them to put themselves aside in order to achieve his goals. SJWs will never have a cult leader because for them, social justice is a game of oppression. Sure a few will manage to claw their way to the top but they won't get there without throwing each other under the bus. Sure they'll manage to do some damage, but they're simply not smart or stable enough to sustain themselves.

>>300280 >But one key difference between SJWs and the Red Guard is solidarity. Instead of "solidarity" I think the important word here instead is "charisma"; as Mao and all other cult-of-personality leaders have in spades #blackspadesmatter. With the exceptions of feminism-tourist grifters like Anita Sarkeesian and con-artists like Zoe Chelsea and Breanna Wu John Flynt; the vast-majority of people who got sucked into the Social Justice cult did so because attractive people with more charisma were busy having sex and doing attractive-people-things, while SJWs were instead, attending their outrage-culture madrassas in Collage, or at home, bitching on tumblr about muh opressun, all the time.

>>300280 That poses a different set of problems to it though. They have the same mentality but instead of huddling around one cult leader they'll do it around various that get propped up and then fall one after another, never with a short enough period of time for them to collapse under their own weight. Gradually that kind of system will break down but it's almost like a more decentarlized version of the Red Guard since they can keep rotating figureheads and leaders in different arenas every couple years. In exchange for the weakness they get from various separate firebrands they gain the strength in being able to bounce back from a lot more than they otherwise could've and get to play with more subversive tactics. The biggest benefit is that if things ever get too out of control the larger numbers can pull support and focus on someone else instead. Of course, they won't do this until it's too late, which is quickly happening to BLM as despite having a more and better decentralized structure, there's just too many radical aspects and damaged goods involved. For vidya, I see the transition of Phil Fish to Zoe Quinn to the current prop of Nina Freeman as the same exact thing repeated in different terms. For larger ones you've got figures like Rebecca Watson and Anita, though due to her longer term and success (3-4 years, FemFreq business) she's become very difficult to replace and has run over wannabe contenders like Suey Park. The biggest problem being faced there is that as she continues to collapse and tighten her base with more radical ideas, there's going to be a vacuum and nobody's really proven capable of taking it. A lot of that is just musings in my head but I think it's fairly consistent with reality. They ultimately become a decentralized Red Guard and while it takes longer, it works better, especially in our society versus China's 50 years ago.

I've been thinking of that lately too anon but why archive the Wikipedia article? I'd rather take their bandwidth and not donate lol.

useful idiots

>>300237 Chairman Mao His economic policies really helped make china what it is today even if he is a communist. Red guards would have destroyed itself due to factionalism and infighting until a strong leader " Zhang Chunqiao, head of China's Propaganda Department" to get them back in track. Maybe a couple years from now the west will be sighted instead of china,"The growth of social justice and government collusion to encourage that growth"

Watch "The Nine Commentaries" communism documentary on youtube.

>>300363 The only reason you might want to archive a wikipedia page is when you think some piece of shit corrupt admin might redact something.

>>300363 >I've been thinking of that lately too anon but why archive the Wikipedia article? I'd rather take their bandwidth and not donate lol. Good point, I should have thought of that, lol! >>300378 >Chairman Mao >His economic policies really helped make china what it is today even if he is a communist. Allowing more capitalism during the past couple of decades is what helped make China what it is today. Industrialisation would have happened eventually regardless. (At best all Mao did was maybe start it in China earlier than another communist leader would, but if there wasn't communism then it probably would have started even earlier than that.) I hate to use Wikipedia again but this is what it has to say about both Mao eras: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Leap_Forward Great Leap Forward: >"enormous amounts of investment produced only modest increases in production or none at all. … In short, the Great Leap was a very expensive disaster." It also cause the Great Chinese Famine killing around 40 million people. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_Revolution Cultural Revolution: >The movement paralyzed China politically and significantly affected the country economically and socially. >The Great Leap was an economic failure >The effects of the Cultural Revolution directly or indirectly touched essentially all of China's population. During the Cultural Revolution, much economic activity was halted, with "revolution", regardless of interpretation, being the primary objective of the country.

>>300378 A shitty backwards train wreck desperately trying to catch up while whoring itself out to the lowest bidder? There are Mao apologists now? Seriously, kill yourself.

>>300454 >being this late to the party Welcome to the Internet, friend.

>>300454 >>300449 Mao did nothing wrong

>>300472 Is that a home made "little red book" cover? Probably over some other book? Fuck me, it can't be that hard to find a genuine copy, they printed like 5 billion.

>>300472 Is that the mascot of /leftypol/?

Race is a social construct.

>>300539 2/10 weak b8

I'm happy that a relatively high-profile name saw the parallels between the Cultural Revolution and what's going on today. University professors attacked and shamed, anti-intellectualism abounds. China won't make that mistake again, and I guarantee they know how to capitalize when we make the very same mistake

>>300472 Holy christ this has to be a parody

>>300542 If only. Leader, meet ADF-Fuensalida, batshit insane "Maoist" and tranny degenerate: https://encyclopediadramatica.se/Adf-fuensalida

>>300542 That's not a parody. He has an ED article. He's very autistic.

HUACfag here. What the fuck do you think I was trying to tell you? At least OP has it right.

>>300378 >Mao's economic policies really helped make china what it is today even if he is a communist. Mao told people to melt down their tractors to make steel. This resulted in useless steel and a famine that killed millions. >>300449 Got so bad that pic related had to take over, bending the Communist line and building the foundation of the current hypocritical, nepotistic style of government. >>300454 >>300477 No, nothing bad ever happened, these tanks were actually food trucks.

>>300280 >they don't have a cult leader I got bad news for you family

>>300542 Truth is stranger than fiction. She's not even a useful idiot.

>>300472 Man, Timmy Williams really fell off the wagon after IFC canceled The Whitest Kids U' Know.

>>300542 The guy is like a commie version of Chris Chan. You can easily creatt ons of exploitable from this degenerate. Pic related.

I'm really not liking these comparisons to dictators that got what they wanted. But its the truth after eight years of Hillary the constitution isn't going to there to see it.

>>300542 Africa gets the superior commies.

Mao was a good boy!

>>300275 Even Marx wasn't a marxist you would think people would learn something from that
