Professionals and intellectuals – in practice this included almost everyone with an education, people who understood a foreign language and even people who required glasses (which, according to the regime, meant that they spent too much time reading books instead of working). Ironically, Pol Pot himself was an educated man with a taste for French literature and spoke fluent French. Many artists, including musicians, writers, and filmmakers were executed. Some like Ros Serey Sothea, Pan Ron, and Sinn Sisamouth gained posthumous fame for their talents and are still popular with Khmers today. Ethnic Vietnamese, ethnic Chinese, ethnic Thai, and other minorities in the Eastern Highlands, Cambodian Christians (most of whom were Catholic, and the Catholic Church in general), Muslims, and the Buddhist monks. The Roman Catholic cathedral of Phnom Penh was razed. The Khmer Rouge forced Muslims to eat pork, which they regard as forbidden (ḥarām). Many of those who refused were killed. Christian clergy and Muslim imams were executed. "Economic saboteurs" – many former urban dwellers were deemed guilty of sabotage due to their lack of agricultural ability. --- End quote --- |

both communism and fascism are socialist subsets that call on the state to control everything and that actively hate and systematically kill the rich people in society, so you can't really say one is worse than the other |

okay, fair enough. the khmer rouge and gulags were absolutely, 100% awful, and it appears i was misinformed. but the overall death toll is about 3.5 million. you want to do genocide olympics? Riddler's regime killed at least 11 million people in the holocaust. at least. that's the low estimate. high estimates are 20 million+. --- Quote from: Kearn on December 18, 2017, 03:41:18 PM ---https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Terror https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holodomor https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Purge https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Christians_in_the_Soviet_Union https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambodian_genocide https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khmer_Rouge#Crimes_against_humanity --- End quote --- okay, fair. i appear to have been mistaken. i'm still going to argue that the holocaust was worse because i loving despise national socialists with a passion. |
