At least one society is decent enough to take out their antisocial billionaire parasite trash...

The death penalty is always wrong.
Murder is not a punishment and once you've stripped her of her ill-got gains there is no longer any reason to kill her.

While celebrating a billionaire getting their just desserts is always fun, not really sure that this is a reflection of the decency of the Vietnamese government.

Since when is it leftist to support the death penalty, let alone take glee in it. This is like the boomer FB shit

Interesting if you read about it, while many were found guilty I think only a woman is being sentences to death while many men are just getting a decade in prison for their involvement in it.

If she was the ringleader, sure... I guess (not that it makes the state's murdering of folks alright). But odd that she gets death while all the men don't even get 20 in jail.

I don't think we should have billionaires but celebrating state sponsored murder is fucking gross

“We” isn’t this the case of other billionaires getting mad at one billionaire?

Not a fan of the death penalty

I mean, Vietnam is a Socialist Oriented Market Economy.

86% of Vietnamese people own their own homes, 70% are farmers because the government will allocate farm land to anyone who proves they can raise crops.

Wake me up when Trump sees even just a shred of accountability, or Musk, or Bezos, or ....

She stole 12.5 billion dollars?!

Jesus Christ. How much is enough?

Also how does it get to 12.5 billion before people do something? Had they intervened with something less severe at 1 billion then there would still be 11.5 billion and a life not lost.

That's typical communist competitor purges, it has nothing to o with redistribution of wealth.

What will the method of execution be? A guillotine seems fitting.

According to my quick Google search, there are about 100 million people in Vietnam. The average wage is $150 per month. $12.5B shared among each person is $125.

Why not make her pay that amount instead of a death sentence?

I have neither the emotional nor mental bandwidth to read up on this, too stressed being poor. Does anything say what is happening to the money?

She's had so much plastic surgery it looks like she's got Bell's palsy.

On one hand, you have to appreciate a little win here or there. Not often they see consequences.

In the other hand, you should probably have a beer or a nice, refreshing glass of fruit juice or something. Whatever you like, you know? Treat yourself, it's a special occasion!

I'm sure all those Vietnamese workers love walking past statues of Ho Chi Minh and liberationist/progressive/commie monuments on their way to work for multi-national companies or when speculating on the Ho Chi Minh stock exchange

It's just social democracy at this point tbh
Tho don't get me wrong, this one is not entirely on the CPV (even though the party bureaucracy plays a huge part in this), but simply losing virtually all networks of solidarity to other socialists contries (especially with China being on the capitalist road)

China 🤝 Vietnam

Getting rid of annoying billionaires

I hear you but if I’m honest, and tomorrow America announced it was going to execute every billionaire, I’m not going to put up too much of a protest.

Let's see:

• non-male
• non-white

Uh huh.

We've got a ways to go yet.

Or just those that are not on "the line"? Like Russians falling out of windows. What is the actual truth behind this?
