I'm also always a little surprised how quickly Vietnam was able to get over the Vietnam War. I always got the feeling collectively the whole country agreed that the whole scenario sucked for everyone but they can't let it ruin the future. Any other Asian country would be holding onto that glurge for generations.

China went to war against them a few years after the Vietnam war when they got involved in Cambodia. While it wasn't as long lasting they hated eachother for decades. In all honesty, it's probably safer to side with the US. The odds of us wanting to invade them again are near zero. I would not put it past China however.

The Chinese are the most buckbroken chimps in existence. Their leader could announce that Tuesdays are mandatory angle grinder enema days and they would take it and do it gladly if it was tied to some autistic social status based system. This is what happens when you base your whole society on face culture and conformity. It's the same with pretty much all asian countries. They're living that "exiled into the woods to die because I didn't attend the Shakashuri Blowdown" lifestyle to this day.

There's lots of Viets in the USA living kickass lives, and that's hard to ignore even for the ones back in the old country.

I miss Gehenna. For all the terrible shit that happened under Biden, I think his presidency will always hold a special place in my heart for being a spectacular time to be shitposting on the farms. Really the end of an era. I'm just glad Gehenna lived long enough to see USPG winning bigly.

 

[SpergioLeonne]

nothing makes Asian countries think the USA isn't so bad like China
also iirc most of Vietnam's real grudge was with France, we just got the mop-up duty at the end

Yeah they had to fight a whole ass war of independence against France, and it’s not like they were ideologically interested in having their own communist revolution. Russia just offered to recognize their independence from France when we declined.

So Ho Chi Minh was a hero of the independence movement prior to all of that, he was like the Vietnamese Nelson Mandela, and they just declared they were communist to hold up their end of the deal with Russia when they got the French to surrender.

So we didn’t read that one well with our domino theory policy, and dividing them was just copying the Korean model, but obviously didn’t work.

I’d say thousands of years of tossing out the chinks left the gooks uniquely suited to give us a hard time.

I was watching these Vietnam War diary interview things and what struck me was a marine saying “we went in calling them Charlie and left calling them sir Charles.”

I think they’re also kind of respectful, or have been while there were still a lot of vets alive, if our vets wanting to go back and see the places they fought without bragging but out of solemn remembrance

Why TF would they start in the 9th Cricuit?

Edit: Shit, they're the only ones fucking with enforcement, he's building caselaw to fuck California.

They also manipulate industries into self destructive behavior so they can buy up foreign companies. The video game industry, for example, had what was apparently a Maoist manipulation tactic applied to it (I forget the name of it), with various forms of DEI and Modern Audience Sloppery... which causes the game companies to collapse after listening to the bad advice, allowing Tencent to buy the companies at 10 cents on the dollar.

They're doing the exact same thing with Hollywood. I'm sure they've done the same thing with manufacturing and a million other things

Ching Chong Disney would definitely be an improvement over the current thing if they stop trying to destroy it once they own it.

No more winnie the pooh though

He's public domain there wouldn't be any more from Disney anyways. But maybe they will figure hour how to make stuff like Kung Fu Panda using Chinese lore. Maybe there could be a Disney Monkey King movie

 

[Buck Broken Chimp]

The collapse cringe I see from accelerationist populist here makes no fucking sense.

the issue is the people with nothing to lose are homeless people in and drug addicts who are either leftist already or are fodder for leftist to recruit

Once the system collapses and they stop getting gibs or are unable to skim off the top these are the people who will rise up. Do you think the drug zombies of San Fracisco care about ending the fed,sound money, the anti christ or the importance of a traditional christian family ?

I do love how buying US Old Hand Me Down military equipment is the best and surest way to say "Yeah, we're cool.".

A lot of the Viet-Kong didn't understand what communism actually was, funny enough. They were just illiterate peasants who thought it meant resisting colonialism and making your flag red. It was a critical moment after their victory over the south that most of those veterans went home and started small businesses, something which angrily side-lined the actual communists in the government.

The people who are already homeless because they can't even rise up off the couch to get a job are going to lead the revolution, really?

How odd that the people fighting against foreign influence from westerners weren't fans of foreign influence from communists...

My old dentist was like that. Immigrated from Nam, is educated, a Christian, business owner, and is active in the community.

Millennials are so much like their boomer parents it's (almost) funny.

Millennials can't afford to have kids to fuck over so you're retarded.

You guys are invading China now?

 

[The Ugly One]

That's a stark disparity, which in more wistful and nostalgic times, wouldn't have raised too many alarm bells. Everyone was delusional enough to think that the Communist Party would liberalise further and allow for more domestic freedoms and greater access to mainland Chinese domestic markets. The Chinese gamed the system hardcore and they've basically positioned themselves as a keystone of global logistics whether we want to admit it or not. Sure, it was the rest of the world's fault for centralising everything in China. Having said that: Chinese capital eventually became a weapon to entice people into sacrificing their own desires to toe the CPC's line (i.e. Hollywood movies being censored for the Chinese market, Tencent having a minority or majority stake in various games publishers and studios, etc).

Stuff like this makes it all the more maddening that all you have to do is cry, "Sinophobic racism!" and libtards reflexively support anything China does to increase its stranglehold on global markets. Not being white is apparently a cheat code to get American liberals to agree to anything you want.
