I don’t think so either, just a really bad era full of utterly dipshit moves coming out of China foreign policy-wise. They supported anti-communists regularly in Africa because Soviets were supporting communists. Just dumb as hell, anti-internationalist pro-Amerika shit.
Had China maintained a better stance of solidarity during those times the USSR might still be around. Of course this is “what if” and not our material reality. Deal with the hand we’re dealt I suppose.
I didn’t know that! To me it seems that if the necessity of the reform back then is now proven, it is also real that there is a rightist tendency of the CPC who took a lot of importance after the Mao era. But truly it shows the resilience of the CPC in the face of great challenges, especially now that Xi Jinping is bringing balance back
