Mao made just as many or even more (or more severe) mistakes
Lesson being, keep doubling down, embrace chaos, make mistakes, you’ll be forgiven more easily than if you act reasonably all along
Edit : I’m not being ironic or something I genuinely think Mao making more mistakes is a sign we shouldn’t be afraid of making some along the way






Nah I’m kidding don’t worry, I’m not saying Mao didn’t correct himself, just the fact that he made bigger mistakes shows that being ambitious and getting it wrong doesn’t even make your posterity more precarious, so it’s important to remain bold
