This video answers the crucial questions such as how long did the famine last, why did it happen, how many people died etc.

Mao's true accomplishments are remarkable, especially considering how bad China was in 1949. He increased life expectancy by 30 years, literacy rate from 10% to 80%, provided free healthcare for hundreds of millions of Chinese people, liberated China from imperialism, liberated farmers from feudalism, and liberated women from social injustices.

He laid the foundation from which China took off like a rocket in the last 40 years.

The demonization of Mao started only after the CIA"s color revolution failed in 1989 -- the Tiananmen Square protests.

The lies about the Great Leap Forward are debunked with stats and facts, many from declassified CIA reports.

My interview with Yawen Xu of China’s CGTN on the upcoming Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO), of which India is also a full member.

We discuss SCO’s history and how its priorities in the formative years were terrorism and separatism.

And about SCO’s major accomplishments over the last two decades, especially regarding Central Asia.

I talk about a geopolitical taboo — USA’s support for terrorism! From the Mujahideen in Afghanistan to the recent decade-long “civil war” in Syria. The reality is that the CIA armed and funded terrorists from all over the world in order to overthrow President Assad.

We talk about the difference between SCO and NATO.

And we go into the overall philosophy of SCO and the so-called “Shanghai Spirit.”

SCO, BRICS and Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) have perfect synergy, and they represent the emerging multipolar world.

Endless and needless wars, coups and color revolutions, violation of international laws, hypocritical application of rules and morality, fake democracy and fake prosperity at home… the US is in big trouble. And so is Europe. My article originally published here: https://sputniknews.in/20240122/how-america-is-destroying-itself-and-the-world-order-6289490.html

1. Increase wages 2. Reduce cost of living 3. Stop the endless wars 4. Encourage good values

U.S. overplayed its hand, weaponized the dollar, lost the war in Ukraine, and is getting mired in another disastrous Middle East war. The Global South has had enough

Americans are wealthy, healthy, happy and smart. And they just want to spread their happiness to the rest of the world.

Look at INCOME-per-capita. That’s only $38,000 a year. Also, GDP is based on spending and doesn’t reflect real wealth. Now look at China, where people have saved up $18 trillion in bank accounts. Who’s wealthier?

Some in the US are now starting to realize that decoupling from China is not so easy after all. The dream of offshoring or near-shoring has been downgraded to de-risking. Why? Manufacturing is more than just cheap labor and assembly. Let’s explore all the myths and demystify manufacturing in this podcast. Manufacturing underpins economic growth, solid middle class population, and national security.

The US economy is in shambles. Exploding debt, inequality, stagnant wages, dying small towns all over America, homelessness, drug addiction… the problems go on. And then there is dedollarization movement, which threatens the dollar’s relevance. The only way to stop this a huge war or wars, which would cripple Russia and China, and devastate Europe. Then… the US can write off its debt and start new. And once again — like in 1944 and 1974 — the dollar will be the king and the American Century will be extended,

Peter Zeihan is so wrong about everything that this is my longest podcast — 40 minutes long! He’s wrong about deglobalization, the coming collapse of China, reshoring or friend-shoring of manufacturing, the future of US dollar, and definitely his rewriting of the American Empire’s past.
