Fuck that shit. Seriously. AT LEAST 80% of it is OUTRIGHT FAKE.

This really was it going on in China, until late 90's.
Please, Do Not fall for it.

What are you talking about? Looks like you're confusing the Mao's Red Book with the Tao Te Ching. Nothing to do one with another.

East India Company back then collected all sorts of stories, myths and literal regalia (written collections of laws, privileges, rules etc) And artifacts and items with writing and markings.

For some reason no one today dares to compare Actual historical findings versus current officially approved Chinese take on their own history.

So there.

It was an interesting read but I like Stoicism more personally. Stoic writings also translate nicer because they're written in Indo-European languages at least. Ancient Chinese is a lot harder to translate, especially with something as allegorical as Taoist writings.

Of course it's a mighty sword unlike anything else.
Equal to (and even exceeding) The Excalibur.
Today it can't even travel, because of "an accident" in the past.

East India Company collected a literal 1000 fucktons of historical media from China just to understand the language and the culture. None of this shit popping up Today wasn't even hinted in in it.
