Comparing Mao to Hitler

[Henry C.K. Liu]

There is a vulgarity about this person that is dwarfed only by his bigotry.
The issue is not about varying opinions on Mao.  The issue was about DeLong
illogical accusation of Mao.
Without understanding the issue, Max simply jumped in for the racist fun.
As I said before: to be called a "lyin' ass" by a self confessed liar is self
vindicating.
Max is not clever; he is simply crude.
