During the Cambodian genocide, Buddhist monks were targeted by the Khmer Rouge regime because they were seen as symbols of the old society and traditional values that the regime sought to dismantle. The Khmer Rouge aimed to establish a communist agrarian society, which involved eradicating religion and any institutions that could foster dissent. Monks were often executed or sent to labor camps as part of a broader campaign to eliminate perceived threats to the regime's ideology and control. This brutal repression was part of a larger effort to impose radical social engineering and eliminate any influences that contradicted the regime's vision.
