In a series of twitter posts, T. Greer explains how and why Mao's strategy of denouncing political opponents worked in the culture revolution without deployment of actual physical force and observes that mainstream political science doesn't really have a good theoretical understanding of this actually quite intuitive tactic. 

Greer notes that similar tactics are likely to be used in the process of selecting a Democratic Party nominee in 2020.
