That would partly thanked to Vietnam nailed the western imperialism in Vietnam and Russia for countered U.S. influence in Asia. Otherwise you Chinese could had be experimental for U.S. to test their supreme weaponry, let just say U.S. won the war in Vietnam, what the next step they could had done?
Another thing, it was not Mao that brought Communism to Vietnam. Ho Chi Minh was long time disciple of Stalin and Lenin. Mao's ideology has little to none influence on Vietnam. Vietnam's communist official stated that in an interview with BBC when was asked influence of Mao over Vietnam in the past.
Belittling Mao would simply make Vietnam's communism and Ho Chi-Minh looks bad.
Think about it, USSR didn't manage to survive, while China did.
At least we don't deny Stalin's contribution for communism even though he was even less friendly to China than Khrushchev, he laid the foundation for the superpower USSR.
While Mao laid the foundation for the modern China, every modern communist should know how great Mao was as a leader.
Peaceful? And it is 1928-1937, and Chiang Kai Shek did not rule most part of China, just the South East. You must have failed you history.
There is a 黄金十年 that Japanese destroyed.

Nevertheless I have to admit Stalin is able to perform greater feat, but Stalin started off much better as Russian was way better educated and more exposed to modern science.
Stalin did unite Russia. Chiang did not unite China.
黄金十年 was only good for my native city Shanghai, but elsewhere in China was still a sh1thole.
