"The leaflets reportedly found at the site warned of the “cleansing” of brothels, “degenerate homosexuals”, thieves and informants, and declared “Long Live Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, principally Maoism.”"

    Of all the revolutionary movements (I don't include the Khmer Rouge, for the record, because those bastards can all rot in fucking hell) the one that I give the hardest side-eye to is the Shining Path. That said, the right wing has used or directly funded fringe movements as a way of discrediting the left and that is a tactic that is older than the Cold War. Shit is as old as Haystreet.
