Ho Chi Minh knew all about America's long history of genocide and slavery.
When the time came to work with the American OSS to fight the Japanese he helped the Americans.
Any questions?
Yeah one question, what did America do to Vietnam after that?
What were the Japanese doing then?
Are you saying we should allow the genocide in Palestine to continue, and add suffering in America too?
Im saying using Vietnam as an example why working with the US is good is the stupidest idea I've ever heard.
I think it was less, "the US is good" and more "one way or another someone is gonna fuck you over, sometimes the only choice you have is who"
Fine, give me a better example.
I'm not married to that analogy.
I could talk about the women and former slaves who worked for politicians who couldn't promise them the vote.
Would that get the point across to you?
