Great Leap Forward

Though I will add that despite the lower body count, the Cultural Revolution is more repulsive to me


That's why I said morally worse, I think you should have voted for the CR.

The GLF is a more devastating event in human history, but not necessarily morally worse. Even though it was continued because of Mao's selfishness, it started with good intentions. Of course you could say that communism is morally wrong to begin with. The GLF also indirectly killed all those people. It was a major reason for the Great Chinese Famine (along with drought and poor weather), the famine is what actually killed them.

On the other hand, the CR was started because of Mao's selfishness.
