Yea, then probably invade Vietnam and support Pol Pot, that would really make those revisionists mad!

Yes, definitely cut ties. Then help the largest imperialist powers in military conflicts against such socialist state because that's what Marx probably said you should do.

I haven't fully finished it yet but I'm also losing it over this. I knew the Sino-Soviet split was a disaster but I didn't know how deeply China worked with the US as a result. I guess I understand now why they were able to convince the US to tie their economies so deeply together

Vietnam stays winning
