19:28 < nosmo> Mao is another weird one
19:28 < Tapir> I associate Maoism with international communist movements in the 
               60s and the 70s, surely he has no popular appeal now?
19:28 < nosmo> some of his writings are very on the button, but once again, 
               mass-murder and baffling continued support 
19:29 < nosmo> There are some maoist movements out there, bafflingly 
19:29 < nosmo> tbh any support for him outside of agrarian societies is largely 
               concentrated arrogance by intellectuals imo 
19:29 < nosmo> college students thinking "yeah, we can be the vanguard"
