The comparison is very valid. Not in details, but in comparison. Pol Pot pointed to the problems with his predecessor yet brought worse. Nee complained about denominations but brought another denomination and deputy authority. No, there was no "killing filed." But PP turned out to be worse than what preceded him. The same can be said for Nee, then Lee (even worse). I know you would not say that. But the observation from the hindsight is that it has a comparable history.

This comparison would only make sense for someone such as yourself who has a preconceived belief that things became worse. If I don't believe that, then I cannot understand the point being made without reference to "moving towards" or some indicator that things moved from good to bad. You seem to mistake my disagreement with the point made (that things were worse), and my disagreement with use of vulgar language, as "not getting it". But I get the comparison, it is not rocket science.
