Tomorrow, I'll add the fall of Saigon from US puppet regime, what my family was doing around that time/that day & then continue to share about our family's experiences in Saigon until we left & ended up in first of two refugee camps.

Everything that I shared, today, about the US terrorist invasion in my birthplace, Vietnam, took a lot out of my emotional/PTSD banks.

Sending positive, peaceful vibes your way❤️
Also, I’m so sorry. It’s all so unnecessary.

@RiaResists I hate watching warmongering history keep repeating itself with US being global terrorists, yet again. US seriously needs a domestic resistance army - willing to fight/die on their own sovereign lands & fighting their own fascist government.

Me too. I think most of us do, but the #EpsteinClass does whatever they want. With our money.
Viet Nam, this…. Gaza.
Recklace & indefensible.

@RiaResists They do what they want because there's no real resistance in USA. When you look at other places where their domestic government has been completely corrupted & where bastard regimes were overthrown - it's done by mobs of angry, not rich citizens, willing to risk their lives to obtain freedom & sovereignty. Knowing full well - they may be shot to death & they still go out to fight against fascists.

@RiaResists Western governments depend on their citizens to just do street protests. They are trying to criminalize that too. Expect more of the same BS from Western governments - none of them truly feel very threatened by citizens. They know Westerners aren't built like many of us who are from Global South & won't take as many risks fighting government. The Western governments bank on white cowardice.

@RiaResists Just FYI - Not targeting you, as I know you're on board with anti racism & all of that. I'm trying to let others know, Western governments absolutely depend on white cowardice. They also ignore POC & help white folks over us.

I'll provide an example from when me & 2 friends decided to test the local cops out - with same issue. Calling to ask for help to find a lost friend. I was ignored & told to call back next day. I called next day & was told to call back next day, again. My Indigenous friend, identified himself & his nation. He still had almost exact the same experience as me - being ignored, basically. Our white friend got assistance within 30 minutes & they were willing to do full search for our not really lost friend.

I hear you. And I hate it.
I thought we were making progress across the board with Obama.
Racism is so powerful that racists are willing to lose it ALL, destroy the planet despite raising kids on it. No price is too high.
Having a special needs brother showed me the ugliness of hateful ignorance.
I stand with the oppressed.
Thank you for sharing your experiences with us 🙏🏼❤️

@RiaResists Obama was black but he was also part n parcel of US war crimes.

Yes.
And racist Americans have literally lost their minds because of the black part.
