What constitution doesn't have freedom of religion written in it? A constitution is meaningless in such collectivist 1 party dictatorships.
"Subversive religions" i.e., a religion that refuses to submit to state atheism.
Why wouldn't the Buddhist monks be opposed to state atheism, especially a state atheism that actively persecuted religion and then ended up genociding its own people?
Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge were not just atheists incidentally. They were ardent atheists and they promoted atheism and hated religion, that was the primary motivation for their repression of religious forces.
As I said, state atheism doesn't target the laity (at least initially), they go after the clergy first. They eliminate the clergy then brainwash the laity through the education system to abandon their traditional religion in favor of worship of the state.
