Why did Mao Zedong killed people?

Answer 1

"Mao Zedong did not actually kill people outside of the civil war between the Nationalists and the Communists." This is essentially a false assertion by those who are denying the evidence of history. There was an avoidable famine which caused millions to die. To say that 'this was actually an unintentional mishap after the government tried to reorganize farms', is a fools argument.

What the Chinese were trying to accomplish was similar to Stalin's first 5 year plan in which he attempted to increase manufacturing. In other words, his attempt to control and dominate millions upon millions of people and families, resulted in their deaths. Even if (as it is still argued in leftist circles) his intentions were good (which has clearly been shown to be a laughable, untrue thought) the results were horrific. Mao was singularly responsible for more deaths than any individual in human history. It wasn't just mass starvation, it was murder on a scale beyond imagination.

Answer 2

Men like Mao kill people because they perceive a threat or to gain more power.
