Comment on Don't listen to the fucking history of china podcast

It is tough to find an exhaustive resource in English on the subject of Chinese history. Nathan Rich is working on one on YouTube but he is currently stalled while trying to find people to help him finish the project. He is a hobbyist historian so I don't know how he stacks up to this Chris guy in that department but he is definitely not anti-communist or anti-Mao.

This isn't the first time he talked about communism in his podcast btw lol, earlier on he said (though it was more light-hearted) "in a move that seemed ripped straight off the communist manifesto, the emperor introduced sweeping land reforms". He would have never talked about the manifesto if the PRC did not exist today and he should just stick to relaying history without adding in his personal slant.
Thanks for the recommendation!
