A Different Politic
With two opening lines joking about politic, my review of Asia 63 turned into a political outrage. I don’t mind discussing politics, but I chose to stay out of the Vietnam-War-related argument. As I have predicted, the comments got nasty. It’s really a damn shame that we can’t agree to disagree. Just because one doesn’t share the same beefed-up, traumatizing views Asia entertainment had repeatedly put out in almost every video, he is stupid, “eating communist shit” or a communist. That’s just ridiculous and I am done with it.
Let’s move on to a different kind of politic. Just read an enlightening post from a Vietnamese-American fellow who used to hang around here during Obama’s election and had inspired me with his sharp, thoughtful and witty opinion. Here is an example:
I heard that as President Obama passed crowds of anti-abortion demonstrators in Washington DC yesterday, they chanted “Kill the Bill”, “Kill the Pelosi Bill”. I wonder how they, mostly faithful Christians who consider abortion sinful, think Jesus would have felt if he found out that his followers reacted so angrily toward a bill that was designed to take care of the underpriviledge in society? These are probably the same people who feel elated when saying “God Bless America”. What they probably meant was “God Bless America minus the Poor”. If I was Jesus, I would say “God Bless America, minus You”!
Agree or not, I sure got a kick out of that.
We got a bad apple here and there but overall I think you do attract a fair amount of readers with class.
One bipartisan vote from the House reps. Joseph Cao may or may not be a opportunistic hypocrite but I salute him, anyway.
Hi Donny,
I have been dealing with much trauma and drama in my personal life too, so I didn’t check your site as regularly as I used to and hence don’t know which Asia review you are talking about. The things about the exaggerated sense of anger and hatred is that they can only work against the benefits of those who seek to assert them because it is only wise to use the loudest and scariest voice in the worst case scenario , otherwise after a while people will feel numb and your plea for help won’t be that affective anymore. Of course I am not talking about those videos because I don’t watch them and am not very well-versed in the politics of the overseas Vietnamese community. I am thinking more of my neighbor whose non-stop cursing and complaints have grown to be background noises and yesterday her house was robbed yet no one paid any attention to her screaming. Really scary!
LOL I just saw that reviews, it’s on this same page! And I read the first few comments too. Gee, that was tense!
Hi Donny,
From time to time, you attacked the Vietnamese community with your fucking prophetic statement and then revised it under the pretense of a joke.
So when the fuck are you coming out of that VC closet? I guess you are one of uncle Hồ Chó Minh’s bitches?
Don’t take this seriously, I was joking just like you did.
Hi Donny,We will not be 100% agree at all times, but keeping a cool mind about opposite view may lead us to new discoveries.
You are doing alright.
