Why did they choose such a shitty pitcure for his album? He looks like a fat hobo in it.

He WAS a fat hobo...

Not when the album was released IIRC.

Well, at least he was influential. I believe Nick Drake really liked him and there are some recordings of some covers Nick did of his songs.

>Born during French rule of your country
>Life is shitty
>French leave, there's hope to become as great as the West
>Music industry is huge, became renown as "Cambodian Elvis"
>He has a family that he sings to provide
>Suddenly, the country is captured by a coup and he's forced out of his home
>In the riots, the masters for everything he ever made is tossed into huge fires
>Pol Pot takes control of the new regime and decides to kill every artist and intellectual - Sinn Sisamouth is both, and his (pregnant) wife is a ballerina, meaning they, their first child, and their unborn child are all targets
>Tries to hide; probably saw that everyone who sings or hums one of his old songs gets shot for supporting the old way of life, even children (children actually got their heads bust open against a tree to save bullets)
>Gets caught and gets tortured for weeks before they decide that it's better to just drag him off to the killing fields and shoot him
>He tries to win his freedom by singing a song so beautiful it moves a guard to tears; they shoot him and the guard and toss them in a giant pile of bodies
>The Khmer Rouge often didn't shoot people in the head, so he probably slowly bled to death
>Probably saw his wife shot and his child beaten to death because they kill men last

The Khmer Rouge was easily one of the lowest points of human existence.

jesus fucking christ

He had a childhood sweetheart at 11, probably had already lost his virginity to her, fucking Chad

Nick had a shit life too

Probably some unknown musician who was born into an oppressive fascist/communist regime and was killed with all of their works and possibly entire life being removed from history by the government

And people defend communism

>Communism caused that

good burger indoctrina-I mean, education! All ideologies that oppose the U.S. are bad! Go vote in your election goy, after all, you do have freedom of choice to choose between a crook and a crook :^)

>A FUCKING LEAF

Jesus man

>attractive and talented Cambridge alumnus who was good at sports, had a record deal and came from an extremely wealthy and prestigious family
His life was perfect

You can point to similar atrocities in Capitalist societies. The Holocaust or the Armenian genocide for example.

He died a virgin

>he thinks the holocaust actually happened

ISLAMIG GOMMUNISM GAUSED THIS :DDD OH NOE ALL THE BURGER :D

By his own choice

Sup Forums and reddit are now the same alt right fedora garbage bin, so I'll direct you to both

The economical policies might have been capitalist but the regimes who conducted it were not even slightly democratic

how is that relevant? The United States isn't a democracy either. Most countries aren't.

jews did 9/11

So why are you talking about capitalism/communism when you think its an issue of authoritarianism/democracy?

Back to your safe space, Sup Forumslennial

The holocaust was socialist.

Safe space! Lmao xD you so triggered that tumblrina TRIGGLYPUFF!! Pewdiepie and based milo BASED CROWDER AND BASED MILO can't stump the trump degenerate cuck nu male have some free gold [+1]

What did he mean by this?

>sexual assault task force

Keyword: slightly

Because it is? Communism is more than an economic policy, there's the social engineering and totalitarian aspect to it too.

you're really triggered rn

Hitelr was a national-socialist

>terrible mental health

>play with jews, always lose

his albums didn't sell, no one cared about his music when he was still around and he was an autistic virgin.

>virgin
>implying molly didn't

I don't think the ideology of communism has ever faithfully been enacted though? Usually when there is a public appetite for communism someone will see it as an opportunity to wield absolute power

Hitler was corporatist as fuck. Just because they had socialist in their party name doesn't mean the way they ran the country was anything like socialism. There were factions in the party who did believe in the socialism of national socialism, they were purged by Hitler.

DUDE COMMUNISM WILL WORK THE NEXT TIME! I SWEAR! ALL MY BUDDIES AND PROFESSORS AT COLLAGE THINK SO!

**College. Sorry 4 the typo.

isnt that the girl from twin peaks?
