Pol Pot was an Statist Authoritarian. A Communist. Extreme Progressive Socialist. He believed in initiating violence against morally innocent humans trapped in a geopolitical domain.And you share much of his family values, morality first, taxation is theft, world view, as I quoted. As he declaimed, in more general terms: If you can't keep a city from drowning in sewage without an immoral tax-levying government, then you shouldn't have cities - which means, of course, doing something about the shit-free cities the intellectual elites with their immoral taxes have already set up.
So he did.
Penny drop?
Most Communists, cannot maintain functional cities. Look at our Government run Schools where 1 in 5 graduates (GRADUATES) lack the ability to read and write competently. Only Government can sustain this level of inefficiency / bloated price and low quality. At least until society collapses. Which is currently happening in the West. IMO
As for Japan, they have mega cities where a large percentage of the population have private sewers. As a matter of fact, it would be possible to construct an entire city, the size of Tokyo, with only private sewers. Which are more environmentally friendly and cost effective. And moral.
Incidentally, the average IQ in Japan is about 105 whereas Cambodia is around 84-91. If you don't think this also plays a large role in why Cambodia became Communist and why it failed, well, that's something for you to consider. Low IQ people generally like simple ideas, like gimedat. That's the entire reason we HAVE Nation States and Religions. It provides simple people with their identity.
As an aside, I am curious though, would you consider Japanese Fascist? They have a Nation State. The government supports various private industries. And Japanese (like Chinese and Koreans) are in general quite Nationalistic when it comes to Ethnicity. E. Asians are quite 'racist' in that way. Though 'race' isn't really the correct term. There are Koreans who have lived in Japan for 3 generations are still not Japanese citizens.
So? Are Japanese Fascists? National Socialists? (minus the wars)
