About this episode
🌟 Did you know that the narrative of communism in China is often a fairy tale? 🤔 Frank Dikötter reveals the truth behind the propaganda that has shaped our understanding of history.
🔍 Key takeaway: For decades, we've been fed a simplified story of the communists as heroes fighting for the people, but the reality is far more complex.
