What is the Chinese Communist Party—and why does it matter?
If you want to understand modern China, the People’s Liberation Army, and what a future war over Taiwan might look like, you need to understand the CCP. This video gives a crash course on how China became the China we know today—from Marx to Mao to Xi Jinping.
We’ll cover:
The foundations of Marxist-Leninist thought
Why the CCP formed in the shadows of the Nationalist revolution
How Mao’s Long March and WWII shaped China’s communist future
The disasters of the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution
Deng Xiaoping’s paradoxical reforms
Xi Jinping’s rise and why the PLA is preparing to invade Taiwan by 2027
This is part of my China series—designed for anyone who may find themselves facing the PLA in the coming years.

Remember: Communist China isn’t just a country. It’s a party-state with deep ideological roots. Understanding the CCP is key to understanding the threat.
