Trinh Ba Phuong, who was already serving a 10-year sentence on charges of spreading anti-state propaganda, was convicted Friday by the People’s Court of Da Nang for writing “down with the Communist Party of Vietnam for violating human rights, down with the Communist court for wrongfully convicting me” on a piece of paper found in his cell, according to The 88 Project, a group focusing on human rights abuses in Vietnam.

His most recent conviction is “the first instance of a Vietnamese political prisoner being prosecuted for their speech while already imprisoned,” according to The 88 Project.
Oppressing capitalists is morally just, and necessary. I will always choose to live under the authority of the working class, than authority of greedy pigs. You choose the latter, which is pathetic.

You believe these people are not greedy pigs? Hilarious. This is an oligarchy like any other, you’re just choosing a different paint job.
There never was and there never will be a sustainable dictatorship of the proletariat. The only ones that tried that really hard where the Khmer Rouge and those murderous fucks are an excellent example how to ruin a country as fast as possible.
If you don’t believe in free speech and human rights. You are not a socialist, you are an authoritarian. It’s not complicated. The DPRK is also not a democracy btw. It’s almost like authoritarians (fascist) just pretend to be whatever is popular to keep power. One of the quintessential aspects of fascism.
Small nitpicks: You can be socialist and authoritarian; it’s just stupid. Also not all authoritarians are fascists. Fascism is specifically authoritarianism springing from far-right ultranationalism with a focus on the restoration of past glory and purging of undesirables from society.
You can’t be socialist and authoritarian. Socialism at its core is a form of radical democracy. Authoritarianism is the polar opposite of democracy. Fascism is total state power and far right nationalism, your definition is pretty close. Fascist also famously just do anything to get power. Everything is about power to them. This is why Hitler called himself a socialist even while purging socialists and communists from Germany. Stalin was also a fascist in many ways, absolute total state power and absolutely no human rights above the interests of the state, and I would would call him moderate, not really left or right. He had many right wing traits. Was an imperialist, heavily stamped down on human freedom and basic dignity under the state, and he made communism basically the state religion, where all children were taught political education at a young age. It is almost exactly like any other right wing authoritarian despot except for the fact he had some actual socialism, like government housing, breaking up corporations, even going so far as to basically abolish the free market and seizing all land from everyone to use for the states purposes. There isn’t much difference. They are very vague terms. I argue with actual fascists sometimes who try to describe it as syndicalist nationalism but they always leave out the stuff about the state being total and absolute, and people losing all their rights, even the preferred ethnicity or whatever, and the worship of the state and divine leader like Hitler or Mussolini or Stalin. They also leave out facts like for some reason once every fascist society, the people there think they are both somehow the superior race and culture, but also victimized to no end. How they both think of themselves as Supermen and also as extremely weak. It’s basically a schizo ideology. Hitler was on meth and stuff, everyone knows this. Something he shares in common with 25% of Americans.
That’s where I think fascism really comes from, Adderall btw. It is well understood that amphetamine abuse causes schizophrenic like symptoms. One thing many people in Germany had in common in the 1930s was a very high level of amphetamine abuse.
Good, capitalists need to be locked away if they’re gonna sabotage the will of the people. Take notes America.
You are a very confused person.
Nah they’re just a tankie.
Same thing
Ah yes, ABC news, totally not imperialist propaganda lol. They totally have no vested interest in criticizing Vietnam.
This guy was convicted for writing “down with the Communist Party of Vietnam” on a piece of paper. That is the entirety of this incident.
If you support this action you are an authoritarian.
Every other argument you might try to make is just an attempt to distract from the core issue, which is oppression.

Er, so your view of the world is pro-bootlicking then?
And also, which of the Vietnamese government’s officials are “the working class”?
Tô Lâm, the cop?
Lương Cường, the army general?
Phạm Minh Chính, the intelligence/security officer?
Trần Thanh Mẫn, the business and economics doctorate?

These people do not read. They get by on vibes and buzzwords.
Trump: Takes notes.
