When I was a kid I thought that Americans genuinely cared about the fate of Vietnamese people who were veterans of the war.
>>221038763The war vets from here or Vietnam? Former was treated like dogshit once they got back which is why they're greeted with 'welcome home' instead of 'thank you for your service' as for the latter there's hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese and Hmong here.

Literally right outside my apartment on the cheap side of town there's a flag pole with the south vietnam flag and a center for vietnamese refugees
>>221038805Oh, I mean what can we really do besides their government please treat them well? They won lol
>>221038824>besides ask their government to please treat them well*
>>221038763Vietnam vets didn't want to be there. Embarassing cringe war.

When I was a kid I thought that all of Europe was old-worldy, for lack of a better term. My parents took me on a trip to western Europe when I was like 12 and I was surprised to see so much like modern infrastructure, like skyscrapers and things like that. I was expecting the trip to be like going back in time to the 1800's, but in many ways they were more modern and developed than we are in Canada. Also until recently I didn't realize how multicultural South America is. I thought they were just mestizos and nogs, but there was also a lot of immigration from Europe and Asia etc. What went so wrong with that continent? Brazil, Mexico, and Argentina ought to be major world powers, what with all the white people and Asians they have.
If America hadn't intervened so excessively in Japan during the 20th century, the communists wouldn't have seized China, young Americans wouldn't have died on the Korean Peninsula or in Vietnam, and Japan could have built a proper China.It's truly regrettable.
