Ms. Que BanhA lot of ignorant as fuck white US losers emerged online recently to try & tell false narratives about the US invasion on Vietnam. Problem with that is people like me, the survivors, are still alive. We ain't having that whitewashed BS. I won't let ignorant bigots run false narratives about my family's lived war/foreign invaders terrorism experiences. I will run their 'Murica BS trains off the rails, with my family's lived truths.
"We won the Vietnam War! We saved the Vietnamese from Communism. We needed to help them."
Da fuck. US did not win nor was that global terrorist, warmongering, war criminals filled government helping any Vietnamese citizens by carpet/cluster bombing, using us as involuntary test subjects for illegal war shit - dropping never used before munitions/biochemical warfare on us! Then, lying to US citizens about what they were doing/did to our peoples.
Vietnam stayed Communist, after US were ran out. US invaders literally had to be quickly evacuated. They had thousands of angry Vietnamese people chasing/screaming at them (my family & others also yelled: #DeathToAmerica ), throwing all sorts of stuff & physically attacking them as they ran to leave Saigon, like rats trying to get off a burning ship. Several Vietnamese were carrying machetes & screaming that they are going to chop off US soldiers' heads. These were people who lost entire family from US terrorist attacks.
I know all of this because my family was right there, in Saigon, when it happened. I was in a baby carrier on Mom's back. Dad & big Uncle threw many molotovs at US army trucks as they were trying to get to airplane. One of my other Uncles yanked a US invader, who was foolish enough to point a rifle at the citizens & then shot two unarmed civilians - straight out of a moving truck. That invader was pummeled by angry crowd. The US army driver was yanked out & given same brutal beat down treatment.
That is what happens when you invade sovereign nations & try to install foreign puppet government leaders. Eventually, the people will revolt & seize their sovereignty back. You create a lot of new enemies, every single time you violently & illegally invade sovereign nations/territories.
Our peoples were willing to die, fighting for sovereignty. US has always underestimated the love & passion that many Global South peoples have for their ancestral homelands. US still makes exact same decisions that aren't helping US unless the goal is to make the world hate you.

Zhao Mo@PhoenixSerenity forty years of blockbuster films about Vietnam and somehow the result still needs explaining to people. the narrative outlasted the timeline by a lot
@zhaomo Years of US #propaganda military films is why many people believe false narratives.
