He called himself communist. That doesn't mean he was it.

[-] texture@lemmy.world 21 points 2 months ago

yeah this post sucks bc of the title specifically.

Murdering 25% of your entire population and enslaving the rest to work the fields doesn't really fit into the definition of communism, as far as I'm aware.

[-] Return_of_Chippy@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago
[-] communist@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz 5 points 2 months ago

A stateless, classless, currencyless society in which the workers own the means of production.

where does it fit?

[-] Return_of_Chippy@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago
[-] communist@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz 1 points 2 months ago

That's literally the definition of communism. Where does enslaving people make sense? It contradicts with "classless" no?

It’s a Holiday in Cambodia

Don't forget to pack a wife!

[-] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 25 points 2 months ago

Supported by the CIA, definitely not a communist

[-] roguetrick@lemmy.world 22 points 2 months ago

Supported by anyone who wanted to shit on Vietnam, so China too.

[-] Return_of_Chippy@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

Every bad communist is magically not a communist

[-] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 15 points 2 months ago

Every actual communist is extremely not supported by the CIA because that's the opposite of what the CIA exists for, read a fucking book kid

[-] minty@aussie.zone 11 points 2 months ago

Nixon supported china against Russia no?

[-] teyrnon@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago

In the Great War, the movies did all their propaganda pieces with the noble chinese fighting the despotic Japanese. After the war they flipped it.

[-] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 months ago

I'm gonna go with a no

That is true. Communism devolves into autocracy the way it's been tried, and autocracies always devolve.

Look at fucking China, it's a capitalistic hellscape.

[-] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

Autocracy is not communism. FFS

[-] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 months ago

Autocracy is the exact opposite of actual communism. When you use a system to gain power and wealth, you're not a communist. Even if that system is communism. Clearly communism has a flaw, as again and again people are able to abuse the system to become a corrupt dictator. But capitalism also has flaws, as there are also capitalist states that are being abused by individuals to become powerful and wealthy at the cost of others like Russia and the US.

Same thing with religion. Jesus says do no harm. Christians say they commit horrible war crimes, crimes against humanity and spread fear and hate in the name of christ. When you do that you're not a Christian but you abuse it for your own gain. This happens in many religions.

I fucking hate religion and I'm not a fan of communism (I'm an anarchist myself) but your comment is bullshit. They're not a bad communist, they just are not a communist at all.

[-] Return_of_Chippy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

What do you mean?

"No, I'm not human"

Fantastic creepy PC game

[-] sol6_vi@lemmy.makearmy.io 1 points 2 months ago

Yes quite good. A little frustrating at times but fun to get through.

[-] technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Imagine this is your understanding of "communism" and the history of southeast asia. JFC.

OP's history of pure shitposts checks out.

[-] nullspace@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Imagine this is your understanding of “communism” and the history of southeast asia.

Would explain some of the unironic tankposting I've seen.

[-] Return_of_Chippy@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Correct, I'm shitposting/baiting/trolling in the place specifically designated to do so. So many people are always so angry and surprised by that.

[-] ZkhqrD5o@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

If you defocus your eyes, he looks like Elon Musk.

It has been an age since I last saw the 'mongler posted in the wild.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Me, a Scandinavian Glasses Guy, shuffling his feet nervously.

[-] Ignot@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

If you shuffle his feet you'll be in great trouble!

[-] pero@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 months ago

Well, guessing by his face, he succeeded

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 2 months ago
