” there are Anarchist groups who have published some of our publications and some have made translation of our publications and they have been published, ”
AK Press, based in Edinburgh, but also in the US, stocks our pamphlets, and Anarchist classics we respect and agree with, such as MUTUAL AID. The Anarchists suffered as genuine socialists did at the hands of the Bolsheviks, and, with us, they opposed World War II.
China was then in no position to fight the U.S., except in a proxy war like Korea. And Stalin, I think, would have left Mao on his own.
Chiang at that time was talking about the retaking of mainland China, which Taiwan today can’t possibly consider.
Also, KMT forces were launching forays from Burma.But Zelensky is adamant about the return of Crimea, and I don’t see NATO anytime soon advising him to accept a deal.
But this makes them as impervious to genuine amity as it does to genuine enmity.
As Voltaire says, crooks have accomplices, not friends. So I suppose it boils down to the definition of “buddy.”
In any case, Chiang and Mao were definitely on each other’s death list.
And please note, Movimiento, that we both have the same understanding of socialism, and I am quite well-read, starting from childhood.
They made a reluctant alliance in 1936. The arbiter of that alliance, Chang Hsueh-liang, was punished with lifelong house arrest on Taiwan.
Why take Hoxha, himself a tyrant, as an authority?
No, I don’t think Chiang and Mao were “buddies” at all. Both came from the Kuomintang, of course. It was with reluctance that Chiang, after being kidnapped, agreed to a united front in 1936.
Since we are in TS’s mind so little and pathetic, isn’t it bizarre that, all the way from Japan (where he tells us he is) he expends daily so much time and energy here, on us?
