Based on his family name, Andy seems to be ethnically Vietnamese.

Shame on him. But I’m sure his family were one of the ones who left during Saigon’s liberation.

Fucker from south who ran when it was liberated, same as gusanos.

Yep. I can’t stand those people. Also, I think the Southern mothers who gave up their children to US soldiers are absolutely reprehensible.

I know they technically meant well, but it was for all the wrong reasons.

What were they thinking it will be well? What did they expect to happen? That’s like throwing your baby to nazis or to Ottomans when they were here.

I agree. It’s potentially very destructive. I don’t know if you ever watched this film called Heaven & Earth, but it’s about a Vietnamese women marrying a US soldier, moving to the US with him, and having children. He seemed nice at first, but then he starts getting abusive, and threatens to kill her. And he also admits to her that he was a Black Ops soldier who tortured Viet Cong.

Based on an actual Vietnamese woman too! Main issue I have with it is that it has Buddhist stuff in it, since the writer/director Oliver Stone is a buddhist himself. But besides that, it’s pretty good.

What’s wrong with having Buddhist stuff in a movie?

Because I think it’s not a very good religion. Better than the abrahamic ones I suppose, but it leads people down to lives that I don’t think are positive development.

Also, the way it was implemented felt very forced. Didn’t feel natural. Just felt like a promotion for the religion.

It did lead her to eventually feal inner peace though, so that’s nice.
