I like them.

Most people in Vietnam have a favorable view of the United States because they just see the Vietnam war as a purely Civil War with the US just backing a side and not being as directly involved in the conflict as what is often taught in the US ironically enough.

South Vietnam wouldn't have existed without America. 5.1 million Vietnamese wouldn't have died without American help and bombing and chemical attacks.

They literally have every reason to despise America for it and yet they've forgiven us. This is why I respect them.

>>17753747
Again, they don't see Americas involvement as being all too significant in the grand scheme of things, as far as they're concerned South Vietnam was South Vietnam and I think they still sympathize with them because the Viet Cong were a bunch of tankie retards no matter what side you were on and because there is a massive Vietnamese Diaspora in the United States as a direct result of the war that still maintain close ties to their homeland.

Communism is based. Stop being an american idiot

>>17753793

Still trails behind America economically despite having over a billion people and has the HDI of Mexico. Stupid Tankie

>>17753797
>that's not even true 7 years ago

China has long passed you by. You can cope all you want.

>>17753803
Retard, it's true today. China can barely keep up with the United States despite having an order of magnitude more people. The average person in China is insanely unproductive

half your economy is "financial products" and not actually anything tangible lol. that's why even when you deployed a billion sanctions on russia it didn't do jackshit because they actually produce things.

stop embarrassing yourself

>half your economy is "financial products" and not actually anything tangible lol.
Retard, if it was that simple than the big brains over in Beijing would've figured this out by now and leapfrogged the US but instead they've resorted to forming economic alliances with Brazil, and even still the US remains the second largest industrial power despite its best efforts to throw its own industry the fuck away. Stop derailing this thread you unhinged cretin

>>17753830
Nobody believes you lol and you are regurgitating the state propaganda of a failing judeo empire

Not even in america are your products made in america lol

It's funny you say this because Vietnam normalized relations with Israel very soon after the Cold War, is a major buyer of Israeli weapons (today), and Vo Nguyen Giap told the PLO straight up that they wouldn't expel the Jews because they weren't the French or the Americans.

To get back on track I just wanted to compliment that young mans M1 Carbine and hope it served him well. Fantastic rifle

No. And the Chinese people are hyper oppressed. They live in a fucking worker ant society.

>>17753858
Tired old western copes

Their middle class has been growing since 2010s can you say the same?

>>17753883
They've been doing pretty well but the Chinese and American economies are actually interconnected. China likes selling us stuff, and there's no telling what these trade wars will do to both economies.

>>17753883
Their middleclass that works 80+ hours a week. Sure.

Yeah, I'm sure all those Angolan villagers they nerve-gassed in the 80s were in league with the CIA.

Moshe Dayan actually went to Vietnam as an observer and even went on patrols with US Marines in 1967, which was one of the deadliest years of the war. He came to the conclusion that the war was a lost cause for the Americans and that they should seek peace (his advice wasn't heeded, obviously).

>>17753825
This is why EU bureaucrats can't understand why their sanctions aren't working and such a ''small'' economy is single-handedly btfo the entire western world. Western ''economies'' are literally fake and gay propped up by services like onlyfans and goyslop rather than an actual industry like real countries like China and Russia

>>17753838
Giap also told the PLO they wouldnt win because the leaders were living too focused on gaining personal wealth

>if you embrace the teachings of Marxism we'll support your government!"
Communism was a top-down imposition. Look at the peasant response to the land reform campaign of the 1950s
>they have the balls to attack a superior enemy en masse
They don't have much of a choice, given how the VWP established a totalitarian state that ruthlessly suppressed dissent and intraparty opposition.
> set the standard for guerrilla warfare doctrine
The NLF was largely replaced by the PAVN after 1968, and the major campaigns of the 1970s were all conventional offensives, abandoning entirely the General Offensive/General Uprising schema that had failed in the 1960s.
>beat the shit out of the Khmer Rouge
Cambodia's population was somewhere between a seventh and an eight of Vietnam's.
>respect the autonomy of the Cambodians
They installed one of the most blatant puppet regimes of the 20th century.
>whip their asses
China wrecked what had been one of their major industrial regions and pushed to a provincial capital before pulling out in a month's campaign.
>>turn towards a modern Capitalist society with a centralized government that isn't even oppressive
Their system is no different than what China does.
