Are they talking about collectivization of farms? Are they pro or con? I’m confused.

Why not? There are so many working farms where most people live. And most poor people have such good ag skills. Especially brown ones. Because genetics.

I think the illogical argument is something like "The Khmer Rouge forced everyone to farm until they starved. The Khmer Rouge were communists. Therefore all communists want to force everyone to farm until they starve."

Yeah, I figured it was something like that. Someone probably saw “The Killing Fields” the other night, and that’s the basis.

This, of course, assumes they know Cambodian history and who the Khmer Rouge were, which I highly doubt.
