Was Cixi the worst Qing regent?
You posted her. Cixi did irreparable damage to the dynasty and the emperor. Amazing that a woman held a patriarchal societyy hostage for nearly all of her life. No one wanted to rape or correct her? But then again her husband was a drug addicted bitch who gave up
>>18050924Joke post? She was likely one of the best regents ever. Held that shit show together for decades while also making reform
>>18050948>>18051015The duality of man
>>18051015>She was likely one of the best regents everFor non-Chinese. Basically sold out the entire country just so she and corrupt "Confucian" Manjew officials could smoke opium all day.>reformsCixi was an okay reformer when she was young but she only reformed to keep herself in power. When Guangxu did reforms which would've made the Qing a constitutional monarchy and perhaps it would still be here today the bitch betrayed the emperor, and none of the "Confucian scholars" did anything about it. Cixi wasn't even his mother, that bitch should've been gone when her faggy ass son (not even her own, Ci'an should have killed that bitch) Tongzhi died.
>>18051343>(not even her own, Ci'an should have killed that bitch)Oops, misspoke. Tongzhi was Cixi son (which makes sense, retard gave birth tona retard). Ci'an still should've done more. But really the Manchu officials shouldn't have allowed Xianfeng to run away like a little bitch and leave his consorts in power.
>>18050924No, she’s over-hated. She inherited huge amounts of problems from her predecessors and had to balance Chinas ultra-conservativism with the need to modernize. Her only big mistake was supporting the boxers.
I'd rather live in 1911 China than present-day China.
