Mao's Murders

How many Chinese population living 1958-1962 mainland of China? 600million(0.6billion) Chinese. If tens of millions of deaths is truth, it means 1/5~1/6 Chinese died almost every Chinese family has 1~2 member(their grandpa/grandma + parents + children) died during that years.

A unreliable data.

Great maths dude, guess maths is not your favourite subject.
 
Right, interview a few people who hated Mao and they surely will provide an objective recount of the numbers. They must be official statistics keepers too since they could give accurate numbers. Great logic! I don't know why universities don't hire you.


Bullshit. Nehru thought he could get China to back off with Forward Policy. He thought aggressive border patrols would get him somewhere. Walk around with your chest puffed out in a bar and eventually someone will knock your teeth out.
This is what you think,good for you .......
I dont want to get into a debate.....

A 'few' people? You obviously do not have the book. I do. Yang did more than just interviewed a 'few' people. He used his Party membership and position as journalist for Xinhua News Agency to gain access to official Party archives scattered throughout China. He read official documents about the famine. Some did not have figures of famine related deaths, some did have but unreliable, and some were detailed. But the common theme was that famine did occurred, widespread, and serious. His book came from 20 yrs of research, most likely the bulk of your life on Earth.

A famine did happen around 1960, my grandpa told me about that , He said some people died without any sign just because of extremely malnutrition .

My family were ok , no one died .But my mother's grandpa died because of he gave all the pumpkin to his two son.

In another words, it's all patchy information he stitched together. Famines did take place in various parts of China, but 30 million figure is still unsupported at best. The only fact in this case was that China's population doubled during Mao's reign, with vastly increased life expectancy and literacy rates. Those are hard facts, not estimates.
 
I do not think it is possible to find out exactly how many die because of Great Leap Forward. It is not really that important how many, the subject is best left for the professional.
The problem is, the debate that is very active in China look mostly politically motivated. With the result, it is almost impossible to know who to trust. But that is what happen to most controversial and very complicated subject. The truth is, no matter where the number comes from, it is a gross estimate at best, given the size and chaotic nature of China at the time.
There are many controversy and counter argument about Yang Jisheng's book in China. Unfortunately NYT will never give you their side of the story.

Then why is Tombstone banned in China? What is the Party afraid of if the information that Yang gathered from China's own sources is so 'patchy'?

It's already written clearly that 30 millions number included the potential of future children and grandchildren.

In my opinion, the number far exceeding 30 millions, it's probably close to 1 billion if you count the great great great grandchildren.
 
Gandhi was dead for decades during Operation Bluestar . If you are talking of Indira Gandhi even well document figures dont go beyond a few hundred .

Mao killed more chinese than anyone else .

The Gandhi dictatorship exterminated millions of innocent Sikhs during operation bluestar including destroying their golden temple.
Of course the despotic Indian regime will lie about the actual deaths, the real figure is in the 20-30 million figure.

Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 are banned in China too, so are some Tom Clancy novels. These must be work of truths according to your logic. The Communist government bans plenty of things in China, including ****. Is **** factual depiction of relationships now too? Banned does not equal truthful or accurate.

it was banned because it did not revealed facts but unsupported information
It is not an academic research which gains reliabiltiy through the a team of qualified experts verifying the facts and figures although as you claimed he is privy to some information not accessible by others

not with you crazy imaginations of notorious claims again!
it is silly to even say 1 billion
do you actually know the ball park figure of China's population now?

What a ridiculous argument...!!! :lol:

You really think people cannot tell the difference between video games and real combat, between pornography and real emotional relationships?

If something is a lie, dubious, or outright falsehood, all the more reason it should be allowed. Let the people see for themselves. Look at you guys for example. Look at how much crap you guys spewed based upon your ignorance and deceit. Look at the technical nonsense the readers have to put up with from the Chinese members here when it comes to the J-20 and 'stealth'. Look how at how often I have to play janitor and shovel your guys' bullshit out of the readers' way when it comes to technical issues. If the admin staff of this forum thinks like you do, all of the Chinese members here would be banned toot-sweet.

Tell me why US MPAA sort the movies by grade, and why children can not see a movie with a grade NC-17 .

Because children are...Children? Or are you saying that the Chinese people are children in the eyes of the government?

You cannot know what is acceptable unless you are presented with its contrast, the thing that is unacceptable. You must present arguments as to why A is acceptable but B is unacceptable. You cannot know what is truthful unless you exposed the lie as to why it is a falsehood and you must make that exposure public.

If the book Tombstone is a lie made up by Yang Jisheng, then let the book fall on its own weight -- IN PUBLIC. What are you afraid of? Are you that mentally weak when confronted with a book? Har...The Chinese talk tough to Americans but are terrified of a book written by one of their own countrymen.
