yeah he did. all of these charges and sentences and he’s magically outside and not in prison lol. I’m just baffled by how he’s not shot yet

Maybe if we arm the students then we’d get the shooter next time.

China was a day ahead of us and didn’t warn us that 9/11 would happen

That agony is your triumph :porky-happy:

Cryptography and networking to securely communicate during organization and monitor suspicious traffic

General OSINT skills to vet people and provide proof of any claims

Not a CS skill, but common in security work is social engineering, and hell, maybe even a little bit of journalism/blogging. Build up a reputation of some sort and attempt to find sympathetic/disillusioned sources who might expose some stuff that will help protestors/organizers

Web design/UX maybe? These days a lot of people are used to or drawn to “modern” and “sleek” designs. Marxists.org will likely deter new people lol

The first two will probably be the most “useful,” but as others have stated, it’s mostly a lucrative field to make a bunch of money

However, if you want to benefit people (which won’t necessarily further any socialist cause), you can get a job at a public organization such as hospitals and schools. Some libraries are large and popular enough to warrant in house IT staff.

In the movie the US tries to draw in Superman by dropping a deadly object from space and almost kills a bunch of people if it weren’t for Superman stopping it. And the US also starts a war with the USSR. But somehow the US is the good guy

Also, the faults of some egomaniacal dictator is representative of communism entirely, but the faults of capitalism are portrayed as the fault of bad apples lol

The funny thing about not being white is that white liberals are too scared to accuse me of being anything because their brains are grinding too hard to not say a slur

Modern Vietnamese people who simply study the past, yes. But speak to the ones who fought in the war or the ones who are taking care of agent orange kids. They don’t forget that shit regardless of how they feel about modern America.

As a Viet, my feelings trend towards resentment more than anything. Having to migrate here hugely because opportunities at home weren’t as good as the country that pillaged us, then learning that said country celebrates that pillaging and sees you as subhuman unless you’re some gusano removed waving a fascist flag of a country that no longer exists. It’s pathetic. It’s also frustrating because these types are usually the only types to exist in the Vietnamese diaspora, so I grow to resent people even in my own community. You cannot have differing thoughts or else you’ll be ostracized, or killed if you piss off some washed up general or his kid. Sometimes they’ll say “go back to Vietnam if you love communism so much,” the underlying message being that the US values free speech and freedom or whatever, but ironically, Vietnam is on good terms with the US and bad blood between southerners and northerners are largely forgotten. People criticize the government openly all the time and even sing southern nationalistic songs without anyone caring. Wave a red flag in the US and you’ll get a protest outside your house.

I don’t know if other Vietnamese migrants feel the same. Or if they even care - in my experience, they usually don’t because they usually already love the US (though complain about everything being expensive, isolating, violent, and traffic jams). But these are my feelings after learning beyond what textbooks say and seeing other Vietnamese Americans’ relationship with America
