this is the assertion I replied to
“At the same time, the Communists in the US government made sure the Nationalists in China got no weapons and the Maoists got whatever they needed.”
I doubt the veracity of that assertion by OP And I stand by my opinion that the assertion ver batem is false
It’s sure nothing I was ever taught And is on its face not a serious claim
No, it isn't. Sounds like John Birch Society-type stuff.
I’ll admit I’d never seen a claim like it before either.
