In China, the More Things Change…

For those interested in the pseudo-clandestine machinations of the People’s Republic, this seems like a decent analysis of today’s Communist Party reshuffling. With that, I leave you a quote by the late Chairman Mao and a hilarious picture:

The conclusion of Mao’s On Practice:

Discover the truth through practice, and again through practice verify and develop the truth. Start from perceptual knowledge and actively develop it into rational knowledge; then start from rational knowledge and actively guide revolutionary practice to change both the subjective and the objective world. Practice, knowledge, again practice, and again knowledge. This form repeats itself in endless cycles, and with each cycle the content of practice and knowledge rises to a higher level. Such is the whole of the dialectical-materialist theory of knowledge, and such is the dialectical-materialist theory of the unity of knowing and doing.
