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!

    Yeah literally all big western armies and generals read Mao's stuff on Guirrella Warfare and on People's War in a know your enemy type of way cause its literally the most effective and adaptable way to not only fight your own state and status quo but also any invader or occupier. And ofcourse they fucking trained reactionary guirella fighters like the Mujahideen based on theses principles ironicaly. Even straight up giving them Mao to read in some cases

    I was trying to find some declassified US Army documents from after Vietnam going point by point on the specific tactics of fighting a people's war on your own soil against (even overwhelmingly more equiped) invading forces ,quoting the relevant mao passages, and concluding on "You cant really win against it, even if you burn the entire country to the ground" . But its been a long time since i saw them , maybe it was a link in the old sub, and i cant find em . But yeah its so rock solid that even Groups like the Shinning Path in Peru whose leadership was crap , and shitted the bed at every turn still held almost half the country at one point
