does anyone know what the book brace mentioned in the Adam Curtis episode of trueanon? he mentioned the author as mobo gao and the title was cultural revolution in history and memory, but I can’t tell if he gave the wrong title or the wrong author?

He probably made it up on the fly lol

I think it’s The Battle for China's Past: Mao and the Cultural Revolution by Mobo Gao

I think it’s a well enough made documentary that doesn’t lean very far one way or another in glorifying or demonizing the program and it’s organizers and participants, but I do think the guys would get a kick out of the subjects, who are all young aspiring reptiles/ghouls of one stripe or another.

Is anyone listening to that Slate podcast about the Iraq War? I can't be bothered but did notice the episode summary asks "how much can that war be traced to one Iraqi exile's longstanding quest to return to Baghdad?"

Exile being chalabi, and lol, what a lens to use to start looking at the Iraq invasion

I am of two minds about Virgil because on the one hand he can be devastatingly funny, especially towards deserving targets but on the other hand he is kind of a lib and apparently a fragile weenie besides which are contemptible qualities
