Is /pol/ pot the ultimate red pilled leader?

He was an anti-intellectual who killed an eighth of his country but sure /pol/ could get behind him

>>133158693

He killed traitorous bourgeoisie who oppressed the proletariat and working farmer. Khmer Rouge was a great success in human experimentation and social engineering.

>>133158693
Well he certainly put his shitty country on the map, the only thing people remember Cambodia for is Pol Pot.

I also find it hilarious that he managed to live a life of relative luxury into old age and die peacefully at the age of 72 despite probably being the most evil political leader of the 20th century.

Kampuchea was a real Nazbol experience

The US began bombing Cambodia in 1965. From that year until 1973, the US Air Force dropped bombs from more than 230,000 sorties on over 113,000 sites. The exact tonnage of bombs dropped is in dispute, but a conservative estimate of 500,000 tons (almost equal to what the United States dropped in the entire Pacific theater of World War II) is unquestionable.

Just how many people the United States killed and injured will never be known. In his book Ending the Vietnam War, Kissinger himself cites ... 50,000...... leading Cambodian Genocide scholar, Ben Kiernan, estimates the number between 50,000 and 150,000.

......The US bombing campaign in Cambodia destabilized an already fragile government.

.....In recognizing them as the legitimate government of Cambodia and seating them at the United Nations, the United States, China, and several other European and Asian countries also gave diplomatic support to the KR. The United States even refused to call what the KR had done from 1975–1979 genocide until 1989, so as not to hinder efforts to back the guerrilla movement.

Pol Pot’s insurgency was indigenous, but as Kiernan argues, his “revolution would not have won power without U.S. economic and military destabilization of Cambodia.” Previously apolitical peasants were motivated to join the revolution to avenge the deaths of their family members. As a 1973 Intelligence Information Cable from the CIA’s Directorate of Operations explained:

Khmer insurgent (KI) [Khmer Rouge] cadre have begun an intensified proselyting campaign among ethnic Cambodian residents . . . in an effort to recruit young men and women for KI military organizations. They are using damage caused by B-52 strikes as the main theme of their propaganda.

>>133158693
The US-backed coup that removed Sihanouk from power in 1970 was another factor that dramatically strengthened the KR insurgency. (Direct US complicity in the coup remains unproven, but as William Blum amply documents in his book Killing Hope, there is enough evidence to warrant the possibility).

>>133158693
In November 1975 — seven months after KR forces seized control of Phnom Penh — Henry Kissinger said to Thailand’s foreign minister that he “should tell [the KR] that we bear no hostility towards them. We would like them to be independent as a counterweight to North Vietnam.” Kissinger added that he “should also tell the Cambodians that we will be friends with them. They are murderous thugs, but we won’t let that stand in our way. We are prepared to improve relations with them.”

>>133158693
A key method to achieving this end was US support for overt Chinese aid to the KR guerillas. As the New York Times reported, “the Carter administration helped arrange continued Chinese aid” to the KR guerillas. Zbigniew Brzezinski, Jimmy Carter’s national security advisor, explained that he “encourage[d] the Chinese to support Pol Pot.” According to a report from the Associated Press, US intelligence agencies estimated that China supplied KR guerrillas with about $100 million of military aid per year throughout the 1980s.

Is that enough red pill about Pol Pot?

Now go and discover how the US overthrew the Ukrainian government in 2014.
The spent $5billion on the project. Ask Victoria Nuland.
