Pol Pot Was an Elliott Smith Fan

Pol Pot died in 1998. Is it possible that he was a fan of Elliott's music?

A black-and-white split image shows musician Elliott Smith beside Cambodian dictator Pol Pot, with a caption asking whether Pol Pot could have been a fan of Elliott Smith’s music. The joke comes from the absurd juxtaposition of two unrelated people and the impossible speculation about their shared musical taste, used as a surreal reaction meme.
