learning about henry kissinger death, and my own ignorance about the depth of this war criminal is alot

especially when hes responsible for 150,000~ Cambodian civilian deaths

Literally as the daughter of Cambodian refugees its really crazy to read this and see that America's red scare killed so many people. The "effort" to ensure communism doesnt spread in SE Asia, and made it worse and made tons of those countries anti-american

#my.txt #i preach to learn ur history but im nothing but a sham sorry #the us bombing cambodia due to ''vietnamese insurgents'' in those locations when there's not #the vietnam war and those bombings leading to the khmer rouge to gain power crazy #its all fucked up in this world #keep coming back to this #my stepdad once asked me when i was criticizing America i dont rmr why. if i was anti-america #and i said no because i was still pretty ignorant about the us. i was maybe 16? 15?#but learning all this how could i not be anti-america?#do not get me wrong #canada is pretty fucked up as well and i do know my Canadian history more than my US + Cambodian history
