I know exactly what happened after the war. The U.S. lost. Saigon was liberated. And the revolution reunited our country that had been carved apart by foreign hands. You want to talk about re-education camps? Fine. But let’s also talk about what came before 1975. The prisons, blacklists, and torture chambers run by the South’s U.S.-backed regime. Let’s talk about Côn Đảo. About ARVN death squads. About Buddhist monks setting themselves on fire while your "free South" disappeared students, crushed protests, and jailed dissidents. Let’s talk about the Phoenix Program assassinations. About forced prostitution near U.S. bases. About villages napalmed into silence. Your version of history leaves all that out. You paint the victors as monsters, and the collaborators as victims. You pretend South Vietnam was a peaceful democracy that got overrun. It wasn’t. It was a client regime propped up by foreign guns and built on the blood of its own people. The South was filled with military officers, CIA assets, corrupt landlords, and American-trained torturers. The so-called "re-education camps" were not created to kill. They were created to prevent that same regime from returning. What do you think America would have done to the Viet Cong if they had won? Re-education was not genocide. It was the price of siding with occupation. Some suffered. Yes. War leaves no one untouched. But don’t use your family's pain to justify lying about the country that survived. You want to talk about loss? We all lost people. But we didn’t lose our country. You don’t speak for the South. You speak for the side that lost. And still hasn’t stopped crying about it.
