Consider you are dealing with a communist country that will happily play hot ditch action. Numbers, faces.. what do they matter?

I've been playing a lot of Total War: THREE KINGDOMS so like you I'm an expert and I concur. He's so naive to think life means anything. That's a new concept, conveniently brought to you by white people from Europe. Unfortunately Asia has been hard to penetrate so the sense of people being individuals and having free will never really reached that far.

The Great Leap Forward was a five-year plan of forced agricultural collectivization and rural industrialization that was instituted by the Chinese Communist Party in 1958, which resulted in a sharp contraction in the Chinese economy and between 30 to 55 million deaths by starvation, execution, torture, forced labor, and suicide out of desperation. It was the largest single, non-wartime campaign of mass killing in human history.

Sixty years ago the Chinese leadership just outright killed 50 million of their own people and then went to bed at night and slept just fine.
Did you know that? Did you know they got schoolchildren to kill all their teachers and then they machinegunned the children later as a reward, job well done? Now they have new teachers and new students and pictures of the people responsible are hung in Chinese schoolrooms to this day.
Think about that next time anyone presents any information coming out of China and says oh yeah, this forms some kind of basis for an argument I'm about to make.
