This isn’t communism. This is insanity.

Communists believe in education. China is producing countless engineers and scientists.

Even North Korea teaches high level math. How do you think they’ve developed long range missiles and nukes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambodian_genocide

The Cambodian genocide (Khmer: ហាយនភាពខ្មែរ or ការប្រល័យពូជសាសន៍ខ្មែរ) was the systematic persecution and killing of Cambodians by the Khmer Rouge under the leadership of Communist Party general secretary Pol Pot, who radically pushed Cambodia towards communism. It resulted in the deaths of 1.5 to 2 million people from 1975 to 1979, nearly a quarter of Cambodia’s 1975 population (c. 7.8 million).[1][2][3]

Classicide
The Khmer Rouge regime frequently arrested and often executed anyone suspected of connections with the former Cambodian government or foreign governments, as well as professionals, intellectuals, the Buddhist monkhood, and ethnic minorities. Even those who were stereotypically thought of as having intellectual qualities, such as wearing glasses or speaking multiple languages, were executed for fear that they would rebel against the Khmer Rouge.[90] As a result, Pol Pot has been described by journalists and historians such as William Branigin as “a genocidal tyrant”.[91] British sociologist Martin Shaw described the Cambodian genocide as “the purest genocide of the Cold War era”.[92] The attempt to purify Cambodian society along racial, social and political lines led to purges of Cambodia’s previous military and political leadership, along with business leaders, journalists, students, doctors, and lawyers.[93]
