      “It was just a meeting!”

      “Whatabout the US???”

      “Cambodian genocide didn’t happen, or if it did it wasn’t that bad, or if it was it’s not a big deal, and if it is, it wasn’t the Khmer Rouge’s fault, or if it was their fault, they didn’t mean to, or if they did mean to the kulaks intellectuals deserved it.”

      “Khmer Rouge were a CIA psyop, this is all Amerikkka’s fault”

        At least in Norway, Marxist Leninist publicly supported Pol Pot well into the 70s. I would bet on #2, with an added element of whataboutism taking about America’s wars.

      I say, expose all the concealed skeletons of all politicians, whatever brainwashed rhetoric they’re pushing. Fuck Mao or Meow or whatever.

          So that’s why their posts suddenly appeared on my /all after switching to a smaller instance. Before that, I had not fully understood what it was about when those people were mentioned in comment sections.

            Terribly annoying, they were. I don’t miss them in the least. Members of .ml have good takes at least some of the time - Hexbear are just 4channers wearing red.

    All other things aside, Mao has some legendary lack of chin. Like… Was this just a bad angle? I’ve only seen missing chins in caricatures and comic book villains.

      At this point in Mao’s life, making a nice number 2 would have been a big achievement.
