Deng Xiaoping has defanged other neo-Maoists, or "whateverists" (so called because of their belief that whatever Mao said was correct) by offering them high posts without power.

Artist Robert Longo even inserted a life-size cutout of Byrne, the group's lead singer and driving force, into a construction called Heads Will Roll.
