Hilariously ironic, given your namesake
Again, read between the lines.
I'm a communist who likes cats and puns. If you can make a compelling argument for how celebrating Mao in the form of a cat pun has a basis in racism and the historical oppression of a people, I'm ready to change it.
I've no need to read between the lines, a dude named mao just told me the ruling government should be worried about cultural sparks for violent political change, and doesn't see the irony
Ah, the context of how you meant my username is ironic wasn't clear.
Why do you think the CPC takes the influence of culture so seriously? Of course they are aware how culture can influence a revolution.
Not sure if that was meant as a gotcha? I thought it was obvious given the conversation so I assumed you meant my username was racist. My bad.
