It’s interesting to see a man who was a Chinese fascist praise the US and the UN, but criticize them for recognizing the PRC. He adopts Orientalist tropes about China (sinification of outsiders as a rule, going so far as to single out Kaifeng Jews as assimilated, reproducing tropes about the integratability of Jews generally) and positions overseas Chinese as model minorities. He maintains the mythology of Chiang.

I’ve never read Bukharin’s book on imperialism before. It’s so good.

soldiering, as Taylor puts it.

Fiery critique on Taylorism.
Many reviews mention racism and sexism, but I have a different interpretation. To me, it seems in line with the *main character’s worldview*, not the author’s. Instead of pinning these opinions on the author, it is equally a critique of early 20th century social attitudes towards sex and race. It’s a first-person narrative. A main character need not reflect the views of the author.

I’ve never been more right btw

i remain vindicated.

“Claiming privileged access to Sun’s handwritten notes and private conversations with his wife, Dai argued that the late leader was preoccupied with yu – the reproduction (shengyu), cultivation (yangyu) and education (jiaoyu) of the populace. Unfortunately, Sun did not have the chance to discuss the concept in public and left faithful disciples like Dai to complete the task.”
ESOTERIC TRIDEMISM CONFIRMED???
