It's not exactly bootlicking Asia either. Or at least, that's not the only thing in my frame of reference.
What I am referencing is NOBODY ever voted for Bolsheviks and Nazis to ever come into power. They do not have public support on a majority margin even in 1917 or 1933 respectively. Khmer Rouge isn't one of these, but then you have that Kissinger-backed crap that everyone hates (so you can't blame them for being desperate).
And in the case of Bolsheviks, people fought them for real. Too bad they all followed the same brand of controlled opposition and were all killed by Communists.
