Bormio Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 Anita Dunn is back! Former Obama communications director fired for saying Mao was one of her 2 favorite political philosophers. Now to be a senior White House advisor. I guess loving a guy that murdered 45 million doesn’t get you canceled. Not in the “New America”. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She said that calling him a political philosopher was intentional irony, which makes sense, since the other member of the pair was Mother Theresa. And she said that she lifted the Mao quote from the Republican strategist Lee Atwater, which makes sense since Mao is a world-historical figure who has been quoted by Republicans in the past. Gingrich quoted Mao in 1995. Rove told a reported in 2008 that Bush had encouraged him to read a Mao biography. But I agree that if we're going to cancel people for such things, we should at least be consistent. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a difference between reading/quoting Mao and calling him one of your 2 favorite political philosophers. Not sure I get Mother Teresa as a political philosopher, sounds like an attempt to get people to swallow the Mao comment without gagging Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
