About Inside Mao’s China: The Great Leap Forward And The Cultural Revolution

The Chinese Chairman Mao Zedong once declared the death of 300 million of his own people would be a price worth paying. Supreme Leader of China for almost 3 decades, his merciless policies made him one of the most ruthless tyrants of the 20th Century. A communist leader obsessed by power and violence; a sadist intoxicated by others’ pain; and a dictator convinced that politics had to be violent. He presided over the deaths of more people than Hitler and Stalin combined. Those who dared oppose him paid the price in the most cruel way imaginable. China’s needless deaths were so great in number, the total may never be known. This is the story of a sadistic autocrat addicted to brutality, from his communist roots, through his reign of cruelty and revenge, to a position of authority so great, his personality cult remains to this day. -- Welcome to the official Get.factual the original video platform channel! 🌍 We are a documentary streaming channel covering history, science, technology, and nature.

What We’ll Eat When the World Runs Out of Food | ENDEVR Documentary In 2050, there will be 9.5 billion people to feed on Earth. This will be a huge challenge for mankind as the lack of arable land and global warming burden our food industry. The solution? Including insects in our diet! Two billion people worldwide already consume insects. Adding this new type of food to Western diets could reduce pollution from our food and farming industries. Several companies have taken the plunge and started this unprecedented style of farming, but inventing a new form of food industry that could feed a large population raises a good number of problems. What species will best suit nutritional needs? How will insects react to intensive farming? At the other end of the production line, advertisers and marketing specialists also have to demonstrate a certain amount of creativity. How can they make a maggot look tasty? A grasshopper look appetizing? They will need to change the Western vision of insects and get people to put aside hundreds of years of cultural prejudice

How Gaddafi Became The World's Most Dangerous Dictator

Throughout the course of history, there have been many viciously cruel dictators, but few as deranged as Muammar Gaddafi, the man President Reagan dubs The Mad Dog of the Middle East. For over 40 years the Libyan despot terrifies, tortures and tricks the world with one horrific act after another. This is the story of Colonel Gaddafi, the Middle East’s longest serving dictator from his roots as an idealistic young revolutionary in 1969, to becoming one of the world’s most deadly terrorists. Mixing dramatic reconstruction with archive and testimony, this film shows how his quest to be taken seriously as an international statesman drives him to commit increasingly insane atrocities at home and abroad. It explains how he ends up an international pariah and reveals how his delusions of grandeur will lead to his downfall in 2011. -- Welcome to the official Get.factual the original video platform channel! 🌍 We are a documentary streaming channel covering history, science, technology, and nature.
