Fact: The United States government neglected to investigate the Gulf of Tonkin incident (The event that led to soldiers being placed in Vietnam as active fighters, instead of advisors as has been the previous policy for South Vietnam) on purpose, despite multiple reports that there had perhaps been no attack. Fact: During peace talks organized by the U.N. Between Cambodia, South and North Vietnam, President Nixon began a non-disciriminant bombing all over the jungles and villages of Vietnam, killing tens of thousands of innocent civilians. Fact: The U.S. military and the CIA used S.O.G. units to infiltrate Cambodia, stalk the Ho Chi Minh trail and kidnap Viet Vong units for "advanced interrogation" (i.e. Torture), despite rules set by Cambodia and the U.N. that the U.S. Military could not mobilize units in Cambodia. Fact: We were the redcoats in this war. We tried to crush a revolution meant to free people, and supported a ruthless dictator. Yes the Viet Cong slaughtered villages of South Vietnamese that supported the U.S. Yes communism historically hasn't worked that well. But trying to make heroes and villains out of any people in war demonstrates your lack of understanding for how chaotic and horrifying it really is. We shouldn't have been there.
Why does America feel the need to stop communism anyways? Who are you to tell other country's how to run themselves? YOU MUST TRADE WITH US. Fuck off, if they want to keep themselves communist then fucking let them, you bunch of Zionist cunts…
"Aggression just lead to more aggression." – The more dislikes I receive based on this comment quantifies the barbaric nature of humanity and also dictates how far we have yet to go to become a civilized society.
The Vietnamese pretty much adopted all the mannerisms of capitalism. They allow private property, private enterprise, etc. Their workers are now employed by foreign multinational corporations, including American ones. They allow foreign direct investment, so foreign investors can move their money into the country and invest (something a real Communist state would NEVER allow under any circumstances). The name is just that, a name. It's meaningless to the actually political set up of the country.
You're not the brightest are you? The problem with this war was Nixon. And in a war you want as little life lost on your side as possible. You think we put 50,000 kids to their death. Well the NVA put over 2,000,000 kids to their death. Think about that

They became capitalist over time. Vietnam was initially a Communist country, and their switched over when they realized the futility of the system.
