'''Ho Chi Minh Thought''' is an [[File:Authleft.png]] [[:Category:Authoritarian Left|Authoritarian Left]] ideology which applies the characteristics of [[File:ML.png]] [[Marxism–Leninism]] to [[File:Hochi.png]] (North) Vietnam. Although named after him, Ho Chi Minh Thought is not based exclusively on Ho Chi Minh's ideas, as it is also based on the ideas of the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV), and may include ideas espoused by the CPV, even if they differ from, or build upon Ho Chi Minh's own ideas. It is centered around values such as national liberation, class liberation, independence, and a revolutionary attitude.
==Beliefs==
Line 181 ⟶ 210:
On 23 September 1945, with the knowledge of the British commander in Saigon, French forces overthrew the local DRV government and declared French authority restored in Southern Vietnam, and began to gradually retake control of the entire country forcing Ho Chi Minh and his comrades underground. The French tried to stabilize Indochina by reorganizing it as a Federation of Associated States. In 1949, they put former Emperor Bảo Đại back in power, as the ruler of a newly established [[File:Cball-SouthVietnam.png]] State of Vietnam.
 
The first few years of the war involved a low-level rural insurgency against the French. In 1949 the conflict turned into a conventional war between two armies equipped with modern weapons from other countries. The French were supported by [[File:Cball-US.png]] [[Neoconservatism|the US]] and [[File:Cball-Taiwan.png]] [[Tridemism|the ROC]] [[File:ChiangKaiShek.png]], with an army consisting of troops from their [[File:colonial.png]] colonial empire which included both [[File:Blacknat.png]] African [[File:Bokassa.png]], [[File:PanArab.png]] Arab, and [[File:PanAsian.png]] Asian collaborators. The Viet Minh was supported by [[File:Cball-China.png]] [[Maoism|Communist China]] [[File:Mao.png]] and [[File:Cball-USSR.png]] [[Marxism-Leninismmarxism–Leninism|the Soviet Union]].
 
The First Indochina War came to an end following the International Geneva Conference on July 21, 1954, when the new socialist French government and the Việt Minh made an agreement that gave the Việt Minh control of North Vietnam above the 17th parallel. The south continued under Bảo Đại. A year later, Bảo Đại would be deposed by his Prime Minister, [[File:Persondignity.png]] Ngô Đình Diệm, creating [[File:Cball-SouthVietnam.png]] the Republic of Vietnam (South Vietnam).
Line 189 ⟶ 218:
Between 1953 and 1956, the North Vietnamese government instituted various agrarian reforms, including "rent reduction" and "land reform", similar to what their Chinese counterparts under Mao did at the same time, which resulted in significant political oppression with executions which ranged from between 10 000 - 50 000 people. In 1956, leaders in Hanoi admitted to "excesses" in implementing this program and restored a large amount of the land to the original owners.

The Vietnam War was one of the deadliest wars and major conflicts of the Cold War that took place in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia from 1 November 1955 to the fall of Saigon on 30 April 1975.
Line 203 ⟶ 232:
The Buddhist Crisis caused by President Ngô Đình Diệm's preferential treatment of Catholics at expense of South Vietnam's Buddhist majority proved useful for the communists' cause for reunification.
 
The Communist Party of Vietnam approved a "people's war" on the South in 1959. As the level of guerilla attacks against South Vietnamese government officials and civilians by the [[File:VietCong.png]] Viet Cong intensified, U.S. President [[File:JFK.png]] John F. Kennedy decided in November 1961 to substantially increase American military aid to South Vietnam. By 1962, there were 12,000 U.S. military advisors in Vietnam.
 
Following JFK's assassination in 1963, US Military involvement in Vietnam increased massively under President [[File:Lyndon B. Johnson.png]] Lyndon B. Johnson. After the Gulf of Tonkin incident, LBJ began to send ground troops to Vietnam. As US forces kept bombing Vietnamese cities and villages killing thousands of civilians in the process, and American lives were sacrificed, opposition to US involvement in Vietnam began to mount at home, particularly in the form of the [[File:Hippie.png]] Hippie Movement. It wasn't just hippies and civil rights activists who opposed the war but also many prominent US politicians and military strategists such as George F. Kennan and perhaps surprisingly [[File:HenryKissinger.png]] Henry Kissinger, who saw the war as a lost cause and that there were more cost-effective ways to counter the spread of communism rather than sacrificing thousands of American lives on the other side of the globe.
 
The Phoenix Program was initiated in 1967 and coordinated by the [[File:CIA.png]] CIA, involving the American, Australian, and South Vietnamese militaries with the purpose of identifying and destroying the [[File:VietCong.png]] Viet Cong via infiltration, torture, capture, counter-terrorism, interrogation, and assassination. The Phoenix Program "neutralized" 81,740 people suspected of VC membership, of whom 26,369 were killed and the rest surrendered or were captured.
 
In January 1968 the [[File:VietCong.png]] Viet Cong (VC) and North Vietnamese People's Army of Vietnam (PAVN) launched the infamous Tet Offensive, a campaign of surprise attacks against military and civilian command and control centers throughout South Vietnam. Over 14 000 South Vietnamese civilians were killed during the Tet Offensive. A large part of that number is attributed to the Massacre at Huế that caused between 2000-6000 civilian casualties during the communist's capture, military occupation, and later withdrawal from the city of Huế.
 
On 10 May 1968, peace talks began between the United States and North Vietnam in Paris at the time fighting between US and Vietnamese kept going on the ground. The Vietnam War made LBJ deeply unpopular at home and caused him to decline seeking re-election. Vietnam was a major political issue during the United States presidential election in 1968. The election was won by Republican party candidate [[File:Nixon.png]] Richard Nixon who had campaigned on ending the war without letting South Vietnam fall to the communists. Nixon and Kissinger began a process of "Vietnamization" to train ARVN troops so that they could defend themselves from the communists while US troops withdrew from Vietnam.
Line 219 ⟶ 248:
The North Vietnamese communists continued their assault on South Vietnamese cities and due to the lack of outside support, the South Vietnamese elite was left unmotivated to defend their country, and many fled Vietnam for the US. On 27 April, 100,000 PAVN troops encircled Saigon. Chaos, unrest, and panic broke out as hysterical South Vietnamese officials and civilians scrambled to leave Saigon. Martial law was declared. Operation Frequent Wind, the largest helicopter evacuation in history was initiated. More than 7,000 people were evacuated by helicopter from various points in Saigon and taken to ships set for the US.
 
On 30 April 1975, PAVN troops entered the city of Saigon and quickly overcame all resistance, capturing key buildings and installations. Two tanks from the 203rd Tank Brigade of the 2nd Corps crashed through the gates of the Independence Palace and the [[File:VietCong.png]] Viet Cong flag was raised above it at 11:30 am local time.
 
The Fall of Saigon meant that at last Vietnam was reunified under one communist government. The communists renamed the former South Vietnamese capital Ho Chi Minh City, although the name "Saigon" continued to be used by many residents and others. All remnants of South Vietnam were destroyed, all businesses were nationalized, capitalism was abolished, and hundreds of thousands were either killed or taken to re-education camps.
Line 225 ⟶ 254:
The 20-year-long war had devastated the country and left it without an industrial base for self-sufficiency which proved fatal as the communist government of Vietnam was left without any allies to help re-build the country. Over a million Vietnamese citizens were forced to flee the country in search of a new life. Most refugees fled by boats by sea, leading to the harrowing images of "Vietnamese boat people." The number of boat people leaving Vietnam and arriving safely in another country totaled almost 800,000 between 1975 and 1995. Several tens of thousands of refugees eventually returned to Vietnam, either voluntarily or involuntarily.

The Cambodian-Vietnamese War had its roots in the Vietnam War when Vietnamese and Cambodian communists had formed an alliance to fight [[File:Cball-SouthVietnam.png]][[File:Cball-CambodiaKPNLF.png]] U.S.-backed governments in their respective countries. Despite their cooperation with the Vietnamese, the Khmer Rouge leadership feared that the Vietnamese communists were planning to form an Indochinese federation, which would be dominated by Vietnam. In order to prevent Vietnamese domination over Cambodia the Khmer Rouge leadership began, following the fall of the Lon Nol government in 1975, to purge Vietnamese-trained personnel within their own ranks. Multiple attacks on Vietnamese land followed this wall.
 
Fighting between the two countries continued throughout the late 1970s, as [[File:Cball-China.png]] China tried in vain to mediate peace talks between the two sides. By the end of 1978, Vietnamese leaders decided to remove the Khmer Rouge-ruled government of Democratic Kampuchea, perceiving it as being pro-Chinese and hostile toward Vietnam's security. On 25 December 1978, 150,000 Vietnamese troops invaded Democratic Kampuchea and overran the Kampuchean Revolutionary Army in just two weeks, thereby ending the Cambodian genocide perpetrated by Pol Pot, which had been responsible for the deaths of almost a quarter of Cambodia's population between 1975 and 1978.
 
On 8 January 1979, the pro-Vietnamese [[File:FUNSK.png]] People's Republic of Kampuchea (PRK) was established in Phnom Penh, marking the beginning of a ten-year Vietnamese occupation of Cambodia. However, the [[File:KhmerRogue.png]] Khmer Rouge's Democratic Kampuchea continued to be recognized by the United Nations as the legitimate government of Kampuchea, as several armed resistance groups were formed to fight the Vietnamese occupation with tactical and logistic support from [[File:Cball-UK.png]] the UK and [[File:Thailand.png]] Thailand among other countries.
 
This resulted in another conflict, the Sino-Vietnamese War of 1979 as China launched a military offensive against Vietnam in response to Vietnam's actions against the Chinese Khmer Rouge regime. Chinese forces invaded northern Vietnam and captured several cities near the border. The Chinese military offensive against Vietnam has been universally regarded as a massive failure as it resulted in tens of thousands of casualties on both sides and achieved little of strategic value.
 
On 14 January 1985, [[File:Hun_Sen.png]] Hun Sen was appointed Prime Minister of the People's Republic of Kampuchea and began peace talks with the factions of the [[File:KhmerRogue.png]] Coalition Government of Democratic Kampuchea. The Cambodian-Vietnamese war came to an end through the 1991 Paris Peace Agreements which also marked the end of the Third Indochina War as a whole.

In 2011 [[File:Nguyễn Phú Trọng.png]] Nguyễn Phú Trọng became the General Secretary of the CPV and the most powerful man in the country. Nguyễn Phú Trọng bares many similarities with China's [[File:XiJinpingThoughtf.png]] Xi Jinping due to his outspoken disdain for his fellow party members' loss of "Marxist-Leninist virtue", increase in censorship, persecution of human rights activists and political dissidents. Nguyễn Phú Trọng in a similar manner to Xi managed to consolidate power through a large-scale anti-corruption campaign against political opponents without enacting any judicial reform. The CPV under the regime of Nguyễn Phú Trọng's government has in recent times faced a lot of controversy over its handling of the Covid19 pandemic. Although Vietnam's response to the pandemic has received international acclaim for its effectiveness to stop the spread of the virus it has been met with much criticism at home for imposing strict and inhumane lockdowns which many Vietnamese citizens perceive as another move by the CPV to maintain its dictatorship.

[[File:Cball-Laos.png]] '''Kaysone Phomvihane Thought''' builds upon [[File:ML.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism]] and [[File:Hochi.png]] Ho Chi Minh Thought developed by Kaysone Phomvihane, the first leader of the [[File:Commie.png]] Lao People's Revolutionary Party and is a variant of Marxism-Leninism adapted to circumstances and special time periods of [[File:Cball-Laos.png]] Laos. It includes views on the issues of basic principles of the Laotian Revolution, specifically the application and development of Marxism-Leninism to the material conditions of Laos.

==Relationships==
===Đồng chí===
*[[File:Natcom.png]] [[National Communism]] - My former self under the Lê Duẩn administration before I went capitalist.
*[[File:Castro.png]] [[Marxism-LeninismNational Communism|Castroism]] - My fellow communist friend, and closest ally, dedicated to crushing imperialism, bringing progress and liberation for the masses. You should consider open your market more if you want the US embargo lifted. It worked for both me and Dengism.
*[[File:Mao.png]] [[Maoism]] - My original role model and main inspiration. Helped me a lot during my independence and fought USA with me.
*[[File:Juche.png]] [[Juche]] - My less market-friendly Korean counterpart. Helped me, for a while, during the Vietnam War.
*[[File:Agsoc.png]] [[Agrarian Socialism]] - Welcome to the rice fields!
Line 295 ⟶ 322:
*[[File:FDRismF.png]] [[Social Liberalism|Roosveltanism]] - Thanks for helping me against the Japanese imperialists and your support for the decolonization of Asia. Your successor Truman could've learned a thing or two from you.
*[[File:Hun_Sen.png]] [[Authoritarian Capitalism|Hun Sen Thought]] - I helped your rise to power in the 1980s. Together we defeated Pol Pot in Cambodia.
*[[File:Putin.png]] [[Kleptocracy|Putinism]] - Another good friend.
*[[File:KPThought.png]] [[Buddhist Socialism|Kaysone Phomvihane Thought]] - A good follower of mine from Laos. I sent troops to help him get in power against the monarchy.
*[[File:Labzion.png]] [[Labour Zionism]] - Unlike most other socialists, I don't have any major problems with you as [[w:Israel–Vietnam relations|Israel-Vietnam relations]] are quite good. Bac Ho even met Ben-Gurion in person and offered him help to establish a jewish government in exile located in Indochina, an offer he declined.
*[[File:Samouth.png]] [[National Communism|Samouthism]] - My Cambodian counterpart, such a shame you were killed by your [[File:Polpot.png]] mad apprentice.
*[[File:Ecosoc.png]] [[Eco-Socialism]] - Fellow socialist and tree lover.
*[[File:Marxfemnewicon.png]] [[Marxist Feminism]] - Women played a crucial role in fighting both imperialism and for the liberation of Vietnam.
 
===Nhà cung cấp viện trợ tạm thời===
*[[File:Ormarxf.png]] [[Marxism]] - I still say I'm you but the concept of a stateless, moneyless, society seems so far away now.
*[[File:Orthlen.png]] [[Leninism]] - Same as above. Also, why do you hate nationalism?
*[[File:Stalin.png]] [[Marxism-LeninismMarxism–Leninism|Stalinism]] - Thanks for supporting my liberation from the French colonialists but why did you [https://twitter.com/lunaoi_vn/status/1370623655697211396 oppose] my national reunification?
*[[File:Hoxha.png]] [[Hoxhaism]] - Once we were friends but one can easily imagine Hoxha’s reaction had he lived to see how modern Vietnam turned out to be.
*[[File:ML.png]] [[Marxism–Leninism]] - My former self. The current General Secretary of the CPV has been disappointed in the loss of ”Marxist-Leninist virtue” among his fellow party members. Rightist elements of the Party have mostly brought exploitation from international corporations and huge inequality and it’s time to change that.
*[[File:3princ.png]] [[Tridemism]] - One of my main inspirations but I turned on you later as I banned all other political parties in Vietnam. Also, Chiang Kai-shek is basically the Chinese equivalent of Ngô Đình Diệm.
*[[File:Mao.png]] [[Maoism]] - My original role model and main inspiration. Unfortunately, he betrayed me when I needed him the most, because of the Sino-Soviet Split.
*[[File:Farm.png]] [[Agrarianism]] - Another fellow agrarian but he is skeptic about the economics of socialism.
*[[File:Sorelia.png]] [[National Syndicalism]] - Comrade who wants to return to simpler times, but why isn't he communist!
Line 319 ⟶ 347:
*[[File:RamaIX.png]] [[Authoritarian Conservatism#Thailand|Network Monarchism]] - One of the most paranoid anti-communists I ever encountered and we were enemies during all three of the Indochina Wars. I even trained and supported communist militant rebel groups in Thailand during the 1960s and 1970s. But I suppose we're good now that I'm not considered to be a "true communist" anymore.
*[[File:PAP(Singapore).png]] [[Authoritarian Capitalism|Lee Kuan Yew Thought]] - Same as above.
*[[File:RSF.png]] [[Mediacracy]] - Reporters Without Borders ranked Vietnam [https://rsf.org/en/country/vietnam 174/180], as if I care about petty things like "Freedomfreedom of the press."
*[[File:Ancom.png]] [[Anarcho-Communism]] - You make me laugh! Your vision ain't possible without a "transitionary state" and a vanguard party to protect the revolution from imperialists [[File:NonComplete.png]][https://www.youtube.com/c/NonCompete| This one is cool tho]
*[[File:Labzion.png]] [[Labour Zionism]] - Unlike most other socialists, I don't have any major problems with you as [[w:Israel–Vietnam relations|Israel-Vietnam relations]] are quite good. Bac Ho even met Ben-Gurion in person and offered him help to establish a Jewish government in exile located in Indochina, an offer he declined. Still your human rights abuses in Palestine concern me...
*[[File:Plcn2.png]] [[Paleoconservatism]] - Also protested against US involvement like [[File:Hippie.png]] him, despite being on the opposite side of the cultural spectrum, yet is not a fan of socialism and dislikes my later detente with NATO.
 
===Bọn đế quốc bẩn thỉu===
Line 332 ⟶ 362:

*[[File:Polpot.png]] [[Pol Potism]] - '''FUKING LUNATIC!!! I SHOULD HAVE SHOOTSHOT YOU WHEN YOU'RE IN ViệtVIET MinhMINH!!!'''
*[[File:Monarch.png]] [[Monarchism]] - Haha Monarchy go bye bye!
*[[File:Imp.png]] [[Imperialism]] - Well, France, if only if you could take your own advice in exclaiming vive la révolution! <refs>Ignore(But howthose Iindigenous invadedseparatists Laos.had it coming!)</refs>
*[[File:Native.png]] [[File:FULRO.png]] [[Indigenism|MontagnardNative NationalistsRebels & FULRO]] - GOD DAMNIT! YOU NATIVE INSURGENTS STOP TRYING TO SECEDE FROM US!
*[[File:Thaifash.png]] [[Monarcho-Fascism|Thai Fascism]] - F*ck you Plaek Phibunsongkhram and Thanom Kittikachorn, imperialist collaborators!
*[[File:Ilminism.png]] [[Ilminism]] - You support [[File:Cball-SouthVietnam.png]] [[Authoritarian Conservatism|South Vietnam]]?! THEN I'LL SUPPORT [[File:Cball-North_Korea.png]] [[Juche|NORTH KOREA]]!
*[[File:Woodrow.png]] [[White Nationalism|Wilsonianism]] - I ASKED FOR YOUR HELP AND YOU IGNORED ME YOU RACIST IMPERIALIST PIG!
*[[File:Showa-kanmuri.png]] [[Showa Statism]] - Japanese go home!
*[[File:AnEn.png]] [[Climate Skepticism]] - NOOOOO!!! I NEED THOSE TREES TO HIDE IN!!!
