minus-squareCowbee [he/they]@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·11 hours agoCan’t really call a civil war against Tsarists and fascists “killing their own civilians.” Moreover, the US bombed Cambodia more than any other country on the planet. Pol Pot wasn’t a Communist, but he was stopped by the Vietnamese Communists.
