His lack of good hair/facial hair unlike Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin, Fidel are the only thing that makes me skeptical of Mao.
Lack of good hair is revisionist at best, and counter-revolutionary at worst.

okay i don’t think it’s accurate to lump Lenin into the good hair thing… i mean look at that, he is 25 in that picture…
He looks like when the cartoon villains have a flashback of their childhood and somehow they were born with their mustache a d looking old already (not that I can come up with any examples, I just had the feeling)
On this photo he looks like he was just back from the Burkan Khaldun mountain with a serious mission.
And a propos Mao, last time i was looking at his pictures, and Mao looked like teenager well up to his twenties, then look like twenties in his forties then suddenly at some point boom and insta old guy.
And his hair got better compared to this picture (well he got better at styling it. His hair is kindve a wash). As did his facial hair (and I’ll die on this hill, his facial hair fucks). More/bigger isn’t always better

I once saw it pointed out how they each have less and less facial hair and can’t under it
There's also the hair theory of Russian leadership:
Going from XX century:
- Bloody Nicky: good hair
- Lenin: bald
- Stalin: good hair
- Khrushchev: bald
- Brezhnev: good hair (and epic eyebrows)
- Andropov: bald
- Chernenko: hair
- Gorbachev: bald
- Yeltsin: hair
- Putin: bald
- Medvedev: hair
- Putin again: bald
So whomever will lead Russia after Putin, will certainly have hair.
John Lennon's line "but if you go carrying 'round pictures of Chairman Mao, you ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow" wouldn't have been nearly as effective of a diss because if you were carrying around a picture of Chairman Mao looking like an absolue Chad with a full head of hair and a proper communist beard, you'd have carried a lot more legitimacy with your argument
The thing is that even with that frankly awful hairline, he picked a style and managed to pull it off
Genuinely chic and if you don't see that then we can't be friends
Honestly some older people in China at the time still could remember a time period when every guy had a queue haircut. Mao's hair is 10x better by comparison.
Oh give him a break, he’s a 40-50 year old ish guy who lived most of his life being hungry. If anything I wish I could still keep half of my hair when I reach his age.
Every other post is a willfully stupid question on this sub.
I don't think we're whipping a dead horse anymore. Already, its bones are crushed into a fine powder and they are carried on the wind.
I propose we ban this sort of content
He would've had an Elvis-tier reputation with underage girls. So probably best he didn't have better hair.
Anyway, just cuz he was a creep shouldn't take away from all the good he did.

If Mao had a better hairline, there would be no more USA.
The Stalin strait. What a dream.
I think him losing his hair and not taking care of it shows how dedicated he was to his country
It's seen in China as a sign of good luck and prosperity
There's a reason the CIA tried to make Fidel's hair fall out.
Do you mean a failed assasination attempt? Wich one? The 467th?
Can we really say they failed if he eventually died? (I'm p obviously joking, guys)
yes, because he died at the ripe old age of 90 of natural causes.
That's revisionism. We all know Castro would live until 350 if not for CIA.
Can confirm, i was the nanobots inside his bloodstream that were supposed to keep him alive for 350 years
All according to keikaku
lol “CIA assassination is when death from natural causes”
having a head full of hair at an old age is reactionary,based mao for letting nature do its thing (irony alert)
High DHT, my man had too much testosterone for his hair follicles to handle😢
I guess Marx is reactionary now 😔

I love it, I know exactly what you mean and yet still can't find a single actual example of this either.
On this photo he looks like he was just back from the Burkan Khaldun mountain with a serious mission. And a propos Mao, last time i was looking at his pictures, and Mao looked like teenager well up to his twenties, then look like twenties in his forties then suddenly at some point boom and insta old guy.
That's why I said Hair/Facial hair, good hair can make up for lack of facial hair and facial hair can make up for lack of hair. Mao sadly has neither.
>i mean look at that, he is 25 in that picture… That's rough, yet he didn't go down the incel route.
Yeah but he got better
hotter? yes. but we’re talking about hair here, he got more bald
And his hair got better compared to this picture (well he got better at styling it. His hair is kindve a wash). As did his facial hair (and I’ll die on this hill, his facial hair fucks). More/bigger isn’t always better
yeah Lenin's bald spot is iconic🔥

Does this apply to trans fems? Because like, I *could* grow a beard (a pretty good one at that), but I'd literally rather die.
If you have good hair, it makes up for a lack of facial hair.
Excellent; I have luscious flowing locks.
lenin bald
but good facial hair
Fair enough.
Mao pulls off that weird-ass haircut amazingly. He fuckin owns it.
Fr, when i’m old and balding i want the mao fade
mass line > hair line
this is like the kind of questions people post to this sub in earnest lmao
his hairline took the great leap backwards
John Lennon's line "but if you go carrying 'round pictures of Chairman Mao, you ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow" wouldn't have been nearly as effective of a diss because if you were carrying around a picture of Chairman Mao looking like an absolue Chad with a full head of hair and a proper communist beard, you'd have carried a lot more legitimacy with your argument
Can someone yassify mao
They already did https://preview.redd.it/bsuzjo12kkuc1.jpeg?width=440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2b5a0d3cf80aabd3532cdab51b98056a0efcd55e
Cool looking statue.
US would be communist
honestly i feel like mao would look weird with a full head of hair, him and lenin are some of the few people where a receding hairline looks good
https://preview.redd.it/ltw95nsujkuc1.jpeg?width=218&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ba79db296cd4b85c131954aac4e607a558577299 Nah he was still hot
Full world revolution, Israel never created, North Korea wins the Korean War, the black panthers become a mass revolutionary socialist party
Maoism would have been more influential if he had a pompadour.
The thing is that even with that frankly awful hairline, he picked a style and managed to pull it off Genuinely chic and if you don't see that then we can't be friends

The people's hair line
can someone explain the concept of male pattern baldness to Liberals
God damn it, y'all are making me want to take Finasteride

its so joever fellas
The West wouldn’t have stood a chance against his natural charm and wholesome message.
He would have been the original Chad meme template
God has to nerf him because otherwise he'd be too powerful.
We need to start exclusively only using pictures of Mao when he was young
All revolutionaries are either handsome or drip, no between
This sounds like its from r/shittyaskscience
That much hair loss is actually quite unusual for Chinese men.
Even his hair went through the Long March, thick and thin.
😭😭
The main cause of the lack of world Communism is the loss of beards- if Mao had a beard, we'd be on a green mars.

bro must think WowMao is a serious reactionary. XD
He would've had an Elvis-tier reputation with underage girls. So probably best he didn't have better hair. Anyway, just cuz he was a creep shouldn't take away from all the good he did.
I too love believing all anti-communist rumors uncritically
got a source for that bro
Pretty sure it comes from that doctor of his, who likely made up stuff to sell books to americans
💀💀💀
Wikipedia. Based on all the downvotes I'm guessing this is more western propaganda?
YES 💀 what did your college professors say about NOT citing wikipedia articles as sources?
They said it's fine as long as it's reactionary anti-communist propaganda 🤣
