Very much so harkoning back to the soviet union, and their short comings in information gathering, and metrics of hitting their goals. Not to mention the lieing, and corruption.
Also the fact that at least from what ive seen online, these issues seem to be present, in modern China.

Starting the section on the great leap forward is pretty wild. Ive always wondered how an individual with an agrarian background such as Mao could create one of the worst famine in human history. It surprised me to read that they would gather several fields of harvest ruin them by placing them in one field, and then lie to the officials saying thay was the yield of the field. Just wild.
