Ending footbindings? Who cares. He cracked an off color joke that may have actually been a dig at Kissinger.

    These terminally-online anarchists always wring their hands over this sort of stuff and yet when you confront them with the fact that a clique of military officers formed around Makhno and they had a penchant for drunken gang rape, they'll either tell you that it's Bolshevik propaganda (how the chairman of the Makhnovist Military Revolutionary Council was a Bolshevik propagadist never gets explained, nor do they seem to know the source of this info despite being able to make wild claims about the info itself) or they'll tell you that they also denounce what happened.

    ["The Council" here referring to the Military Revolutionary Council, the administrative apparatus of Makhnovia which the military was (ostensibly) accountable to and bound by]

    If you ask them when was the last time they denounced Makhno's rapey tendencies or when they last caused called someone out for touting the Makhnovist flag, suddenly and without announcement the discussion always seems to cease.

      Honestly you don't even need to go that far to make Makhnovists look like a piece of shit. My favorite is to use material admitted by even his most sympathetic apologists biographers and then get accused of repeating Bolshevik lies.
