Did america getting its ass kicked mean friendship? I hear alot that vietnam likes america more than china which doesnt sit right with me is that actually true, also they like america but hate the french? I heard vietnam be called the mexico of asia. Maybe its my own personal left wing bias but I literally cannot see any reason why vietnam would respect america and hate china.

In what way does it make sense for Vietnam to annoy its largest trading partner, with which it shares a border?

They have always had a poor relationship with China over border issues even during the Vietnam war. They probably just make it clear that the Chinese don’t intimidate them.
