# Mao Zedong

🏷 Chinese pun spook name · name — by Gerry · Apr 2022 · 509 words

The name Mao Zedong of China’s communist leader, written 毛澤東 Máo Zédōng, may be a pun with 冒姿働 mào zī dòng “feigning the appearance of a worker”. His entire family seems to consist of puns.

## Mao Zedong as pun with “feigned appearance”

The name 毛澤東 Máo Zédōng may not be a real name. It can be interpreted as a pun with 冒姿働 mào zī dòng “feigning the appearance of a worker”. The actual Mao may have been a Chinese aristocrat, in league with the globalized spook elites, who was merely feigning to fight aristocratic rule.

- 冒 mào means “covering”, and is a very common word for “pretending” & “feigning”. One common modern use is 冒牌 màopái for “counterfeit products”.
- 姿 zī is a not-so-common word for “appearance” & “manners”.
- 働 dòng is a non-Chinese Japanese character and Japanese word, and means “work” & “labor”.
- Together, 冒姿働 mào zī dòng means “feigning the appearance of a worker”.

If this is indeed the pun, then the trick here is probably to use the Chinese form of a Japanese word, so common Chinese people would never detect the pun. Common Japanese people wouldn’t detect it either, because with most Japanese readings of the characters, the pun wouldn’t work. Only globalized multilingual spook elites would understand it.
