About this episode
You all know what the Vietnam War is. So I want to use this summary/preview to give some trigger warnings:
(1) At one point in the podcast, I refer to American WWII death as "heroes" and American Vietnam War deaths as "victims." I debated removing it from the podcast, but left it in because I was trying to make a point about war policy, NOT what I think about the men who fought in those wars.
(2) At one point in the podcast, I refer to a few racial epithets that were used against Asians in WWII, the Korean War, & the Vietnam War. I do not approve of these terms. I was showing how those terms are used to dehumanize people.
(3) I try to handle the subject of American war crimes very carefully. I do not want to excuse war crimes, nor do I want to make it seem like all or most American servicemen in Vietnam committed war crimes.
