In the case of the Communist Party in the People's Republic of China and the Red Army, Mao considers two basic groups of pathologies that can often (though not exclusively) be identified with the right or left wing of the party. The first group consists of conservatives who, because of a lack of confidence caused by early defeats, tend to overestimate the enemy's strength. As a result, they leave the initiative to the enemy ('only retreat, never advance')
