So, just a vibe check then?
Lol, in the same way as the Khmer Rouge....you never extrapolated how they were feudal to begin with.
First of all, I don't think anyone can rightly claim Mao wasn't a nationalist. He was an ardent anti imperialist and he wasn't an ethno-nationalist, but still a nationalist at heart. Secondly progress is relative to the revolution, Cambodia prior to the revolution was for the most part dependent on substance farming. Adapting a centralized apparatus to control the economy is still progress.
They didn't deindustrialze, they were never industrialized to begin with.
Hilarious considering your arguments have been completely vibe based. Even when I ask you specify your claims.... Nope just vibes.
