It may be debatable who is better for China and Chinese people between Mao and Deng. But the discussion of a new comparison between Bo and Hu seems off target. in 唱紅, Bo seems to follow Mao's playbook. However, Mao wasn't corrupt and didn't enrich himself the way Bo did and still does. In a sense, Bo is the worst combination of Mao (left extremism and dictatorship) and Deng (corruption). Bo = 馬列主義口朝外.
