Found more. "How to achieve communist utopia" - a perfect example as set by those communist masters of Cambodia, the Khmer Rouge, themselves:

My comments in purple - couldn't help it.
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin--><b>The Work Camps: Life and Death in the Farming Cooperatives</b>

One of the main goals behind resettling urban residents into the countryside was to build a new Cambodia focused on agricultural success: "to build socialism in the fields," as it was once suggested (Chandler, History of Cambodia, 214). Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge leadership developed a "<b>four-year plan" in which Cambodians were expected to produce an average national yield of 3 metric tons of rice per hectare (1.4 tons per acre). But even during pre-Khmer Rouge, peacetime Cambodia, the average national yield was only one metric ton of rice per hectare.</b> To meet these new demands on rice production the Khmer Rouge enforced strict policies where <b>workers labored in the fields for 12 hours a day without adequate rest or food. Many new people lacked any experience in manual labor and became ill and died</b>, since the Khmer Rouge favored the traditional medicine of the peasants and hilltribes over modern western medicine. <b>Those new people who survived but were not well enough to work often vanished: after being taken away to a distant field or forest, they would be forced to dig their own graves before Khmer Rouge soldiers would bludgeon them on the back of the head with a shovel or hoe. It didn't matter whether the blow killed them or not; either way the victims were buried on the spot and left to die a suffocating death.</b> (Communist compassion! Nazifascists.)

<b>Many Cambodians soon discovered that hard work wasn't necessarily enough to keep them alive. "Keeping new people is no benefit," so the Khmer Rouge slogan went; "Losing them is no loss."</b> (Remember: communism is <i>egalitarianism</i>: you can all be equally dead!!!!!) <b>The lives of new people were seen as having little to no value, so even the most minor infraction was enough reason to get sent to a killing field. For example, foraging for extra food was a capital offense, despite the fact that the Khmer Rouge's daily food allowance was so low it would cause hundreds of thousands of people to starve to death.</b> (= the communist idea(l) of economic progress and justice. WOoohooo.) And because <b>family relationships were now banned</b> (for parents exploited their children, so the argument went) (communistic lying), associating with a relative without the permission of Angka could get you killed. <b>Khmer Rouge cadres would look for any excuse to kill new people. If you spoke French, you would die. If you were educated, you would die. If you wore glasses, you would die. If you practiced Buddhism, you would die.</b> Families with connections to previous Cambodian governments were especially susceptible to ill treatment; while former soldiers and civil servants were usually summarily executed, their families were often forced to work themselves to death. Those who managed to survive for a time would eventually be charged as associate enemies of the state and sent to the killing fields.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->And to think it's the Indian admirers of these mass-murderers that are writing our history books and ruling two states and have taken over Nepal.
