I haven't seen so much effort put into a set in years. This would decent if it wasn't so damn propogandistic. Of course the message is "communism hates science".
From the Netflix science-fiction series Three Body Problem

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Can't say I'm surprised about this. Of course they would try and cram in as much anti-communism as possible. They probably saw the anti-cultural revolution stuff in the original and just assumed it was talking about communism in general. I doubt most Americans even know what the cultural revolution is, beyond "bad commie stuff."
Oh, that's not too bad then. I have a very low opinion of netflix specials and assume the worst too much.
Original books are also not unequivocally anti Cultural Revolution. Book one had that infamous beginning, but it's presented as subjective memory, and later, especially in book 2 there were some points of praising it. When i seen Obama praise for the book i couldn't shake the feeling Liu Cixin just put that right at the front of 1st book just to sell it in the west.
