Watching it right now.

Will Ken bring up the hippies treating the veterans like shit? My dad was spit on by Land whales back in 68

I streamed it yesterday. The part about Mogie is crushing.

That South Vietnamese Bitch Madame Nhu was a real bitch.

that's so fucking sad. I really like how they treated the ww2 veterans in your country

Yes. Part 1 literally starts with the line "Coming home from the war was just as traumatic as the war itself".

>"what Vietnam needs is 5 Hitlers"

what did he mean by this?

>tfw made it through two episodes and now the audio won't play on the PBS website
Someone reccomend another way to watch it pls

No qt vietnam gf ;_;

GO HOME GI

dated a Vietnamese girl for 2 years before I finally had to break up with her. She was an insane bitch; needy, controlling, manipulative, money hungry, and sometimes down right threatening.

I finally said fuck that.
So I though can't be all Vietnamese girls, so I dated another one about a year back. Lasted 4 months until I saw the same shit resurfacing.

I'm not even lying. I live in Westminster California.

...

Your Barbecue Sucks!

Same. Viet men are bro tier and will never let you down, but the women are all entitled and elitest. Not worth the drama and trouble they bring

The soundtrack makes this pure kino.

Is Ken being a biased libcuck or is he actually sticking to facts this time?

yeah my dad was drafted and he tried to just go back to a normal life after and people treated him like shit, screaming at him, vandalizing his stuff, threatening him etc.

see

why are you watching the tv broadcast? the explicit versions are online at pbs.org

Better than your napalm

>hippies blame the soldiers who were drafted and not fucking LBJ for accelerating the war

How does being a democrat politician get you out of shit like that?

What's the difference apart from a "fuck" and a "shit" here and there? Does it have more gore?

liberals are always narrow sited

it has all the Al Gore you'd ever need

So far he has painted both Kennedy and LBJ in a bad light as ill informed politicians who are more invested in getting reelected than they are in saving human lives.

Climate change started in the 60s?

We haven't even gotten to tricky dick yet

they showed a picture of George Bush!

qt

...

when did it start getting called the viet nams war? it used to be called the viet nams conflict.

...

Good, your dad was a baby killer.
This whole series is garbage, tying a war of colonialism into the feeble "suffering" of the ones who committed the atrocities.

I bet that pussy was tight as fuck.

crayz

Would gangrape with my unit/10

that looks like an american made grenade tube thing.

Why has no one posted;

>it ain't me starts playing

They were whiney, selfish college kids.

hasn't been played on the documentary, yet

Not watching it

...

Because so far it's mostly Bob Dylan and Simon & Garfunkel.

;-;

Wonderful

PAVN were /fa/ af

>still no AAA Vietnam war games in years

Where the fuck is the new battlefield Vietnam

China Lake I think

>you will never be a PAVN conscript driving into Cambodia on a captured Jeep, carrying an M14 and ready to kill Khmer Rouge scum

There were still plenty of liberals who hated LBJ and chanted from outside the White House,

"Hey! Hey! LBJ! How many kids did ya kill today!?"

That's why they voted for RFK, until he got shot.

These are all male boys

actually they aren't, but that's the problem I have with asians, it could very well be true. Ant ethnicity of humanity.

Didn't Exxon Mobile cover up climate change data in the 1970s?

The stuff about the coup in episode 2 had me on the edge of my seat even though I knew most of the details already. You couldn't write this shit

>generals contact CIA asking "hey what about a coup?"
>they forward it to the white house
>the assistant foreign affairs secretary takes the call and drafts a response in support
>Kennedy signs it over the phone thinking everyone else
>instead of redacting it they give a solid "we won't say no" to the generals
>South Vietnam is lost then and there because nobody legit answered a telephone call

>t. Lang Phuc

They are going to keep making WW2 games for your entire life. You will not live long enough to see people move past WW2. Just accept it.

It is, it's an M72 LAW. If I had to bet money, I'd say it was empty. They aren't reloadable in the field so it was probably fired by a GI, dropped, and scavanged by VC later.

Rising Storm 2 ia pretty good

>male boys

This.
Vietnam movies/games > every other war
Why is Vietnam so comfy lads?

how can our males be real if our boys aren't

>Rising Bug 2

I'll pass

flying in with Flight of the Valkyries with my squad.
Why can't I have this again? wtf, I miss it.

Pretty much everything has been fixed. Plus ANZAC has already been revealed.

>PBS is blocked in Canada

What the FUCK do I do

What the fuck do you think you should do? Is it your first time acquiring media or something?
You buy it dummy

Move to a first world country

>What is a proxy

>be Canadian
>watching it on tv right now
What are you on about?

>tfw nothing but multiplayer only

I would really like a narrative driven story mode game. And an actual good one and not just some super edgy and exploitive shit like spec ops the line: jungle edition

youtube.com/watch?v=usluSX4X1dg

Apparently on Sunday they are making parts 6-10 available for free streaming too.

...

>watching episode 1 right now
>tfw realized Ho Chi Minh literally did nothing wrong

Dank jungles and the grunts just have an extra badass-ness to them. WW2 guys are great and everything but those Nam boys were nuts.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with People's Revolutions. What comes after is almost always a disaster but the reason behind them is just

>Communism
>Nothing wrong

wasn't communism, was a revolution to overthrow colonialism. Nigga read a Westad book or something.

kino. we need more pbs/docukino threads

He was a massive Ameriboo and only used communisim as a macguffin to unify the Vietnamese people, only for his subordinates to go power hungry after his death and took it to the extreme

>It wasn't REAL communism

>Know Trent is doing the soundtrack
>it's not just original material, it has Ghosts and Social Network tracks all throughout
>mfw my favorite Ghosts track played in episode 3

I'm from his hometown in upstate NY. I never see shit from her represented nationally. Feels weird.
they call liberalism a mental disorder for a reason

There's no such thing as REAL communism. That shit is a fairy tale. Everyone knew it, even Ho.

Male (female)

>millenials tying themselves into knots to justify American involvement in Vietnam
Go watch Fog Of War kiddies
Oh who am I kidding, the minute your snowflake sensibilities are ruffled you'll turn it off and run back to your safespace

It was ethnic Vietnamese nationalism in a communist coating so they could get aid from China and the USSR.

I'm sure you'll find something to cry about

holodomor never happened

this user said it so good he belongs on /his/

>that prisoner who blinked out 'torture' in Morse code

i remember that movie.
michael j fox cried to a priest because his NCO sean penn raped a viet congs girl and then killed her to be nice. it was fucking emotional.

liberals are calling him a conservative who white washes the EEEVVVVIIIIILLLLLLL Americans and conservatives are calling a pinko faggot troop hater. So he's doing a good job.

if he wasn't a real communist then how come he genocided millions in communist land reforms? He formed his government completely around China. It wasn't just gibs me dats from USSR and China or else he never would have needed a reason to drop the Ameriboo way

This series really hit it's stride in Ep 3

Already on Ep 6, definitely worth the wait.

>Protip for those Ameriburgers who don't want to wait. Go to the PBS website and you can watch up to episode 5 for free.

This user gets it. Vietnamese culture is extremely communal and family oriented. It's somewhat hard to explain to westerners (ironically why all this conflict started in the first place) but 'socialism' in the most basic sense is a core part of Vietnamese nationalism

Killing communists is justification in and of itself.

Pol Pot did NOTHING wrong

That's because the doc paints him as a dindu "he a good boy he loved America it was all Giap and Lang Phuc fault." While I sympathize with him more than the usual Communist dictator, he was still a repressive asshole.

that's what I've been doing, senpai
just waiting for blu ray rips or until next week

it's more of a narrative of
>Ho Chi Minh tried to do the right thing for decades and that didn't work
>He then resorted to the "wrong" thing and it actually worked
if France wasn't lawful evil then things would have turned out OK.
