Over time it turned into a signature taste rather than just a substitute. Now many people can’t imagine Vietnamese coffee without it. Would you choose condensed milk or regular milk?
Of course, they belong to opposite factions, but other than that they share the ultraconservatism (such as toxic masculinity, homophobia, and Zionism, and then Vietnamese Americans are also fucking religious for some reason), the loaded language, the emotionally-driven propaganda, and the deep submission to authority figures (the former to the VCP while the latter to the GOP, especially the MAGA movement and Donald Trump). And then of course they both religiously abuse generative AI.
Guess this might be the most controversial post here because I'm targeting both sides of the discussion. But hey, this is my frank opinion based on my observation, so there's that.
Today, people across Vietnam commemorate the 136th birthday of President Ho Chi Minh, the beloved leader who devoted his life to the cause of national independence and the future of the Vietnamese people.
Born on May 19, 1890, President Ho Chi Minh played a defining role in Vietnam's journey toward freedom and reunification. Through decades of perseverance and dedication, he became a symbol of patriotism, resilience, and national pride, leaving a profound impact on generations of Vietnamese people. His vision for peace, independence, and a united Vietnam continues to inspire millions today.
"Vietnam is one, the Vietnamese people are one." -President Ho Chi Minh
Forever grateful to President Ho Chi Minh, the great leader and national hero whose legacy remains deeply rooted in the hearts of the Vietnamese people
Happy birthday to the two leaders of the communist world!

During the Geneva convention of 1954, Vietnam was given 2 years for the people to move in between North and South Vietnam. After that, an election would be held to choose the general leader for Vietnam, and then whole Vietnam would be united as one, unlike North and South Korea today. Also in Cold War, Harry Truman was afraid that if Vietnam united and become a communism country, others around it would also be. That’s the reason why Vietnam War happened, and instead of 2 years, it took Vietnam 21 years to be fully united again.

The Geneva Accords that would've required the Viet Minh to facilitate elections occurred simultaneous with the land reform campaigns that exterminated their political rivals.
The Geneva Accords facilitating elections were never agreed to by the South most of all as all of the opponents of the communist regime had firsthand experience with their inability to administrate any political power-sharing freely.
Additionally claims that such power consolidation was done on behalf of their Chinese or Russian allies are bunk - the VCP clearly from the outset sought a policy of power seeking and unitary power to the exclusion of coalition governance.
Finally, to this day, 51 years after consolidating total power and 80+ years after seizing power in the north, the VCP still doesn't have majority support amongst the people of Vietnam despite being the only political party being allowed to exist.
Pathetic
