HANOI - Vietnamese prosecutors called on Tuesday for the death penalty to be handed to Truong My Lan, the mastermind of the Southeast Asian nation's largest financial fraud on record, state media said.
Seriously. Traveling to Vietnam was eye-opening. We did nothing good to that country and then they did nothing to help themselves afterwards, probably because of all the good ol’ American Corruption that came after we firebombed it back to the stone age.
Wtf are you on about? I’ve been to Vietnam several times and the progress they have achieved in such a short period of time is incredible. They have built megacities on the ground where the yanks firebombed. Have you been to Da Nang? Walked around HCMC? Spoken to the people? They are evidently working against the corruption, as we can see in this article, whereas where I live everyone knows the govt sends cash to their buddies and no one can do anything about it? (The UK)
Lol no they aren’t, they are all making bank by fucking those below them over. I’ve lived there for years, it’s endemic and sickening; people are left stranded to die because they divert money and aid to their own pockets rather than to the people. Corruption is head to toe in government agencies and banks.
Is it racist to call a latrine a shithole? What if the entire country was a poorly managed, poorly constructed, poorly infrastructured, poorly supported, and poorly developed piece of land going to be called? I call it a shithole. Harsh? Sure. Racist? No.
We can’t do anything about where we were born. It doesn’t mean the USA isn’t a clusterfuck of epic proportions, nor the UK (where I’m from). All three are corrupt and a mess.

Sounds like they have made a lot of progress despite being a corrupt shithole.
Frankly man I find this very insulting and pretty racist. You don’t have a good word to say about them eh?

Pretty rich coming from the guy coming from the fukken US of A, of all places.

I’m not blaming you or the person I responded to. But maybe they should take a look at their own backyard before calling any place a corrupt shithole
Which nations would you not call shitholes?
Ones with working plumbing and power
Yeah, corruption there is rampant. Very capitalist and authoritarian also
