    Nixon the nominal Quaker would have been better for Catholicism in Vietnam than Kennedy.

      Certainly! Kennedy beating Nixon in the election hurt Christendom, and helped communism.

    Thank you for this Apostolic Majesty. If anyone's interested in Catholic Tradition as well as French history and warfare I warmly recommend Schwerpunkt's channel. The greatest dream would be a coop with AM

      I don't typically watch history RUclipsrs, but I tried watching Schwerpunkt. Until he streamlines his content, and works on the concision of his individual videos - he's inaccessible to me.

    I must say as a Vietnamese Catholic born in Canada, Ngo Dinh Diem is, among many things, a figure not unlike how Louis XVI is a major figure for French Catholic monarchists, who also is often given requiem masses every year on the anniversary of his death.

      As much as I admire Diệm as a Catholic president of Vietnam, as a monarchist, I'm not so favourable to his ousting of Emperor Bao Dai in the referendum that established South Vietnam as a republic.

      @@michaeljcdo335 The correct take.

    • @ApostolicMajesty
      @ApostolicMajesty  11 месяцев назад +20

      @incompetent_3424 Diem was a real monarch. Bao Dai was stooge. It's something I didn't quite emphasise here, but Bao Dai had already surrendered his Imperial status when committing Vietnam to the French Union. Diem conceived of his own rise as a transfer of the mandate of heaven. Had this occurred in an earlier age, the Ngo Dinh may have simply supplanted the Nguyen as Vietnam's Emperors.

    Love the Catholic Vietnamese. There’s a lot of them in the State of Oklahoma. I grew up with Vietnamese neighbors next door and carpooled with them. We still keep in touch today. I’ve been writing a post-apocalypse novel set in the American southwest, and at one point the main characters enter an isolated Vietnamese Catholic settlement.
    By comparison, there are also a lot of Burmese in Oklahoma, who came to the country by different circumstances, and much more recently than the Vietnamese. Both are Southeast Asians, but the Burmese are generally much less pleasant to deal with, and are less industrious. I like Vietnam, and may Americans and the Vietnamese always remain friends!

      In Houston and Austin, there is a very strong South Vietnamese Catholic presence from people who migrated here during that era. My former priest is a South Vietnamese Catholic himself, and he told me about how his family escaped to America as Vietnam fell under communist rule. It's such a vibrant and unique cultural identity that often gets overlooked, and that makes it a treasure.

    Great podcast again. Well, it is often overlooked, due to cold war propanda of course, that almost all east Asian communist movements actually were as much as nationalist as they were communist. They didnt have to study nationalism which was the same thing as anti-colonialism but some of the leading figures studied communism in Paris at French universities, like Ho.

      @lowersaxon From Ho's point of view he only took up communism because it's anti Europeanism was convenient for his Vietnamese nationalism

    As a Buddhist practitioner with Vietnamese children of expat friends who are Catholic, it was quite surprising to me when I talked to them about this particular period in their motherlands history, and they were totally ignorant of the subject. Quite the overshadowed piece of important history.

    It sounds like you are a bit far back from your microphone. Even with my volume up to the last I struggle to hear everything. I like to listen while driving and its a pity to have given up on this episode. I don’t know if I was the only one experiencing it but it was disappointing. Thank you for the videos they are great.

    Upwards of million South Vietnamese died mostly by indiscriminate SVN artillery ("A Bright Shining Lie", Sheehan, others). How much did sectarianism play a role in that military strategy?

    From my view Diem had much in common with other great Statesman such as Franco, Patin, Musillini, Salazar , and Adolfus, ....anti Communistic militants and Nationalistic Catholics. They all represented a "third way" with an eventual return to Monarchy but knew Facsicm under an Integralist society was the only segway to the re-establishment of a King.

    • @ian-Alex-2000
      @ian-Alex-2000 5 месяцев назад

      Indeed. Even Ho Chi Minh, Diem’s enemy, respected him. While Diem was right to view the communists as enemies, ultimately, it was the CIA that did him in, which he was not expecting.

    I'd heard the quote of Kissinger many times - sometimes the "Fatal" is reworked as "Deadly." Now I realize it's specifically about a one time best pal of the American Empire.

    If you want to do a video on Bishop Thuc and Sedevacantism then a RUclipsr named Serp Kerp is a good guest. He has videos on Sedevacantism where he mentions that Thuc was distraught at the time due to his old age, exile, and death of his family.
