With all due respect - I don’t really want to argue with a fellow leftist here while there are liberals attacking us all over the place - the CPC was hardly the only force in China fighting against Imperial Japan, the Second United Front also involved various nationalist forces, including the Kuomintang and various warlords, and if it wasn’t for nationalism and anti-Japanese sentiment, the socialists would have been utterly crushed long before the Japanese invasion of China.

Appreciate the support comrade! It’s not uncommon for me to defend communist states/leaders in much the same spirit, whenever I see them being unfairly maligned, such as recently where I defended Mao Zedong, my anti-imperialist goat. Stalin is a bit harder to defend. I’d defend Khrushchev, except I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone criticise him. Probably because most liberals don’t really know much about the USSR tbh.
Anyways, solidarity!

Exactly. The Chinese communists were barely fighting the Japanese. The nationalists did most of that. The communists were hiding out in remote areas during the long march. After the Japanese had left, the communists managed to beat the weakened Nationalists.
