They're still the same scumbags Mao was.

Kind of unfortunate really. Whether you believe what Mao did was right or monstrous, ignoring it isn't going to help people forget about it so easily. On one hand, them ignoring it is showing that they don't support it, but on the other, it also shows that they don't denounce it.

The Communists just usurped power once the actual rebuilding was finished, they had no such justification.Not to mention that the CPC used the Japanese invasion "treaty" as a way to accumulate land and power behind the KMT's back. They played a pretty much nil role in repelling the actual threat to China.lolwhatthe KMT was corrupt as fuck, that's half the reason they lost the war. The commies won over the peasants by helping them out and by contrasting themselves with the KMT who would happily take bribes all day every day. KMT was basically a bunch of warlords parading behind a nationalist banner.It's so weird to me to find someone acting like Kuomintang din du nuffin. Usually it's Mao that gets defended.
