Well nowadays the government is much better and basically tolerable. Torture and death sentences are still present, but I would not say widespread, unlike in the hardest years of communism.
There are political prisoners, but it’s not random and widespread.
Coincidentally, Vietnamese communist government nowadays tries to be Best Friend with USA.

- shp0ngle 5y agoI am not defending or commenting on US itself, I have never been there honestly. I am kind of defending US actions in Vietnam, and really not US actions themselves, but the South Vietnam government (US did some bad stuff there)
