Because of his methods to attain and keep his power. He killed all opposing political leaders, intellectuals/scholars and wealthy landowners, so that the peasants/commoners could control the country. Actually, his intentions were probably good. At the time of his rise, the divide between the rich and starving poor in China was increasing. The Last Empire was on the decline in favor of the Kuomintang government led by Chiang Kai-Shek. After the defeat of the invading Japanese, Mao's Communist Party won the civil war. Mao brought food to the poor, free education, and a united China. But the cost was devastating: he slaughtered millions of innocent people, destroyed the culture, and eliminated human rights. The wealthy and the intellectuals had to flee to Taiwan or Hong Kong, or be killed. The killings continued until well after Mao's death in 1976, based on his policies.

And to ideaman above, you're an idiot. As Japan and Germany were allies, the Japanese treatment of the Chinese and Koreans were almost as bad as Hitler's. Go to a real library or are you one of those who believe that the Holocaust didn't happen either?

Your question does not make sense. Do you mean 'why was Mao Tse Dong considered inhuman?'
Answer: because he was ruthless, just like any and all of the present and past Chinese leadership. Look at what's happened in Tibet. Barbarians the lot of them.

He was a murderous barbarian that destroyed his country and it's citizens 'rights' under the hammer and sickle of communism. He murdered, raped, robbed and pillaged his way to power and covered it up as being done by the invading Japanese. It is all recorded in (non-liberal non-revisionist) history books you should have access to at your library (unless, of course, you live in China). If you do live in China, the truth will lie hidden from view until the communist regime is toppled and defeated. If you look long and hard, the truth can be found.
