For me, this sentence has rhyming echoes of #PolPot’s #YearZero in 1974. Listen to #ElizabethBecker, who wrote about her 1978 visit to Cambodia under the #KhmerRouge with two other writers. Becker now says that in some ways Washington DC under #Musk & #Trump resembles #PhnomPenh under Pol Pot.” https://open.substack.com/pub/goldkorn/p/pol-pots-cambodia-musk-and-trumps?r=7p2cc&utm_medium=ios.
Cambodia still suffers the effects of the terrible 4 years under Pol Pot. Cambodia is now a sham democracy with no independent judiciary, no free media. Dissenters are jailed.
