The Fall of SE Asia's Most BRUTAL Regime

The brutality of the Khmer Rouge is well documented and known. The extremity of their communist vision went to such lengths, that the communist government in Vietnam eventually intervened and invaded Cambodia to topple its government.
This is the fall of the Khmer Rouge with Hindsight.

1:08 IT’S LIBRATE, NOT INVADE

[@EriePresei]

Liberation isn't like that

[@rithysokha9564]

installed a puppet government? thats not liberating anything

[@dimasrahardja]

Why did you not mention the US bombing of Kampuchea, that was the reason why people evacuated the cities.

[@DeVolksrepubliek]

Whataboutisms. While, yes, that was bad, that doesn’t excuse the crimes of the Khmer Rouge.

[@neutronzz]

@@DeVolksrepubliek these people really think that just because the US bombarded Kampuchea that the Khmer Rouge was any better :skull: It's like bruv didn't watch the video

This channel is very right wing and will therefore often support the us. That’s why he won’t really tell you too much of the bad sides of us history

[@dimasrahardja]

You see bombing innocent civilians in faraway countries or starving entire populations through sanctions, or supplying weapons to cruel dictatorships is not to be considered a breach of any human rights (if the USA does it).

[@DeVolksrepubliek]

When did he ever say that…

[@Sammyfarel]

And at the same time supplied Khmer Rouge againts Vietnam, theres no excuse that pol plot is a blood thirsty dictator just like Mao zedong.

[@leexingha]

@@DeVolksrepubliek why u defend US so much?

[@DeVolksrepubliek]

@@leexingha I’m not defending US. I’m against Democratic Kampuchea.

[@leexingha]

@@DeVolksrepubliek ah, a selective disliking

Communism failed in Mexico, and despite the cartels, has a very strong industrial base. Indonesia, too, albeit to a lesser extent, and they purged their commies. Even China and Vietnam have prospered after basically booting Marxism and Maoism out of their economy. Meanwhile DPRK is clinging on to commieism under a "juche" label, and in the Philippines there are even commies in the legislature for so long, as well as the longest-running commie rebellion in the world. There may not be too many absolutes or certainties in this world, but it is completely safe to affirm that commieism is a veritable curse on a country and those who insist on it for their countries fully deserve to be stripped of citizenship.

Mexico was never communism

Khmer is pronounced as "kh-muy"
