(2/3)Like Foucault (Marxist before, but essentially abandoned politics for more personal philisophy), Lyotard (Post-Marxist throughout), and Derrida (anti-Communist and essentially a Libertarian through the 80s as I understand it, then embraced Marxism AFTER the Berlin Wall fell)
Excess deaths under Mao are a little under half that (45 million for GLF alone), pre-1991 estimates for Commie dictator death counts were super inflated. Still absolutely unacceptable, I’m not what you’d call a Mao fan. That being said, there are many people to blame BESIDES Mao
