Wow. Defending Pol Pot. NSG has reached new lows.
KILLUGON and BERNIE SANDERS and my moirail, ERIDEL.
Founder of Kotturheim, home to my GAY POLECATS, who are TOO FABULOUS FOR YOU.
Arg: Blekk does that. The topics of same sex marriage and the human race's fight against idiocy motivate him to write some truly impressive and glorious rants that deserve to be remembered and sigged.
Zott: I see our Blekky has discovered the joys of amphetamines.
Horus: blekky you are blekky i am horus
Rio: Blekky you are the best person on this website. Figuratively, kiss me.
Blekky is like a bunny. He looks adorable, yet he might bite you till it hurts.
Veccy: you're the worst blekky
The Balkens: Blekk does that, he has been taught by NSG's greatest practitioners of Snark to Snark combat.
Napki: Marry me, Blekk
Aeq: Blekk, you are Jesus!!!

Really? Defending Pol Pot?

NSG clearly has too much time in its hands.

Are you really using the "No True Communist" card?

And I thought defending Pol Pot was bad. Of course he was Communist. The Khmer Rouge leadership boasted over the state-controlled radio that only one or two million people were needed to build the new agrarian communist utopia, which they were trying to create. Under his rule property became collective, and education was dispensed at communal schools. Children were raised on a communal basis. Even meals were prepared and eaten communally. The economy was completely restructured, based on China's radical Great Leap Forward.

Y'know, what a good Communist would do.

The Khmer Rouge wanted to go back to the Middle Ages, they were fascist.

This video is just pure, undiluted bullshit. Did you ignore everything I wrote? I'm sick of Communists pretending people who committed atrocities like Hoxha, Mao, Stalin, Pol Pot, etc. weren't Communists.

But Pol Pot wasn't a communist. The Khmer Rouge tried to return to a golden age in the name of the people using a totalitarian government. That is clearly fascist.

Luckily, my expectations weren't very high to start with.
Used to be a straight-edge orthodox communist, now I'm de facto a state-capitalist who dislikes migration and hopes automation will bring socialism under proper conditions.

No, it was so he could re-educate the poor people on the history of the world, making them loyal to him. Without intellectuals, there would be no opposition to that.
