my favourite that isn’t on this list is claiming Zedong thought is its own unique ideology, not just an addendum to Marxism-Leninism in the Chinese situation, and try to use that to prove that Deng made China state-capitalist and bad. Which, really, is just a bunch’a non-Chinese speakers using an ideology that isn’t what they think (and Chinese people don’t use to describe their political ideals) and an ideology that doesn’t exist to prove that the biggest socialist economy in the world - ever - is somehow actually capitalist and evil.
