No investigation. No right to speak.
You are profoundly ignorant of the history involved here, and as a result of that ignorance you are coming to simplistic and childish conclusions.
You will owe an apology to the people of Vietnam for calling them Pathetic. You will owe an apology to yourself, for letting your arrogance and your ignorance make you look like a fool.
Vietnamese people have a higher approval rating of America than Americans do. There is a deep brain disease, intellectual capture and failure to educate happening here.
Yes I’m sure not accepting your simple equivocating that genocidal imperialist occupation and war is equal to (or worse than) one short-lived border skirmish is due to my ignorance. We have to use thought terminating cliches and failures of logic or we are being “ignorant”
Well thank God some presumably white dude on an English-speaking website is here to explain to The Savage Asian what their opinions are supposed to be.
I’m Arab and I’m repeating the position of the DPRK, which I admire greatly for their principles. The two nations are a stark black-and-white example of the dangers of revisionism and working alongside imperialists
Being Arab does not preclude you from being profoundly ignorant of the 100,000 dead Vietnamese troops of the third Indochina war. It does not Grant you special insight into a regional conflict that only ended in 1991.
To call the country pathetic because they do not align with your simplistic prescriptions is chauvinist. You can quote the dprk, and I could just as easily dig up Soviet quotes. The fact remains that the only people in a position to criticize Vietnamese foreign policy, or Chinese economic policy, are the citizens within those socialist States.
To assume that you, from thousands of miles away, have the right to sit in judgment of an actually existing socialist state, is at best arrogant.
So goes internationalist anti-imperialism into the grave of squabbling nations
