Ever been to Beijing before? Well, one of the city's biggest tourist attractions is a mausoleum that houses the body of Mao Zedong, the founding father of the People's Republic of China. Interesting man that Chairman Mao. Some would argue he was the savior of China, others find the deaths of 40 to 70 million people to outweigh any of the positive changes that came about after. China takes their Mao pretty serious, luckily for us, we're not in China, so we can show you all sorts of hilarious Mao Zedong renderings that the Great Firewall of China would ordinarily prohibit you from seeing. Shouts to Happiestfung for these. [Thaeger]
