From comment:

Yes, they do need to make a movie featuring a “brave Republic of China soldier fighting the Revolutionary Army” aka that RoC soldier bravely executing labor organizers, peasant leaders and any other suspected commie in Shanghai at 1927.

At this point, if the USSR were still around, I’d expect libs to want to idolize the White Army to own the commies. Maybe talk about how “Supreme Commander” Alexander Kolchak wanted to institute democracy and freedom and stuff before Lenin ruined everything. If only they had committed another pogrom or five, then they could have succeeded!

    And it can highlight mao just starving the shit out of people and murdering them

    The average life expectancy of the Chinese people was 27-31 years of age when Mao began his efforts. The life expectancy of the average Chinese person increased DURING the revolution and civil war because revolutionary and civil war conditions were better than the standard the KMT provided before things kicked off. Shit was really that bad.
