回复62楼:这个你可以去问你洋爹的AI,看看他们怎么回答的:did chairman maozedong thankful Japan's invation into China?
ChatGPT 说:
No — Chairman Mao Zedong was not “thankful” for Japan’s invasion of China.
Here’s the nuance:
Mao repeatedly condemned Japanese aggression.
He acknowledged the enormous suffering and devastation that the invasion caused to the Chinese people. Millions were killed, cities destroyed, and the country thrown into chaos.
He also pointed out its unintended consequences.
In some interviews and speeches (for example, his 1945 talk with American journalist Anna Louise Strong), Mao said that Japanese aggression “educated the Chinese people” and “forced them to unite and resist.”
His meaning was dialectical: the disaster created by Japan’s invasion indirectly accelerated the growth of the Chinese Communist Party and the revolutionary movement.
The “thankfulness” idea is a distortion.
Later, some retellings (often hostile or sensationalist) twisted Mao’s words into “Mao thanked Japan for invading China,” which misrepresents what he actually said.
He never expressed gratitude — he was analyzing historical cause and effect.
👉 In short: Mao viewed Japan’s invasion as a catastrophe but also as a turning point in China’s modern history. The “thankful” narrative is a misinterpretation or deliberate misquote.
Would you like me to pull up the exact original quotes from Mao (in both Chinese and English) so you can see the wording yourself?
