While I don’t agree with all of her opinions, I found this to be a more or less fair assessment of China and the PRC’s history.
For those of you who haven’t heard of Viki 1999, I really recommend watching The cold war from the soviet POV | Bias in storytelling.
her opinions, Comrade! Not that she puts her pronouns front and center or anything. But yea, boohoo the poor landlords, but this video is way better than the “RED FASH CHINA” we usually get from libertarian socialist types
her opinions
So sorry! I edited the comment to fix the pronoun before the server but I guess the change wasn’t backed up, let me fix it again
I watched one of these guys videos the other day and I rolled my eyes into the back of my skull
Just a load of CNT-FAI and Krondstatt propaganda that they weren’t authoritarian. Desipte the unelected PRC at krondstat wanting a military dictatorship and being led by Petrichenko who tried to join the White Army in 1920 (2 years after brutal civil war)
After that I thought there’s literally no reason to be subbed to this crap so you’ll excuse me if I don’t bother with what they have to say on China
The content creator is a libertarian socialist and I already see people poking holes into his video on Tankie Bunker (the Discord server that I moderate with some others).
Even so, a “fair” assessment is hard to find nowadays.
it’s an okay video, but as seems a trend, she (Viki) cites wikipedia way too much for comfort. She’s a good content maker but at times she appears to have a bit of western bias at times.
