It’s another black-and-white nonsense movie. I’m here to give you a history lesson.

First of all, it was not the Vietnamese who gambled on human lives, but the mafia in Hollywood gangster movies.
First: The Viet Cong used US military captives to gamble for money: The Viet Cong mainly lives in the tunnels (because the United States dropped more bombs than World War II). It is good to have something to eat. Ordinary Viet Cong soldiers will have watches and dollars? Those who know a little bit about the Communist Party, at least know the tightness of its organization. Even if it is captured, it will not remain in the hands of ordinary soldiers, and it is useless for them to take U.S. dollars.
Second: In the end, the U.S. troops withdrew, and the South Vietnamese were still betting money. The question is: Why do so many South Vietnamese who have a little relationship with the US military want to go to the United States? Because South Vietnam's economy is entirely dependent on the US military. The U.S. forces withdrew and the economy completely collapsed. The Viet Cong will arrest and execute a large number of South Vietnamese who are associated with the United States. When the time comes, all the property will be confiscated, and the U.S. dollar will be equal to waste paper. Are they still betting?

The movie seems to say: This is a cruel game for Asians, we Americans can’t afford to play it, and don’t play it. The fact is just the opposite: this is a white game (Vietnam has been colonized by France for 200 years), and the Vietnamese are forced to play a white game (Marxism is completely Western), but it is just the cruelest way. Nixon, the political gangster, said: "We can't fight China. This is a small place in Vietnam? A fight!" Ho Chi Minh said: Without force, Nixon wouldn't even look at me. Well, one pretends to be forceful, and the other to be brave. Then I can't fight for a long time. Nixon said again: "Fuck you are beaten, and the man is dead, where is the unquenchable grandson of Ho Chi Minh?" Ho Chi Minh said again: "This is genocide." In the
end, the United States had no choice but to withdraw because it could not be defeated.

Everyone understand, one is for the skin, the other is for dignity.

What disgusts me most is that this is obviously a Western game. Weapons were also invented by Westerners. The Industrial Revolution was also Western, and the atomic bomb was also American. In the movie, it was said that it was a Vietnamese game. It's like the Black Panther Party, so it's also a junior of the 3K Party!
