I, a Vietnamese person, see a lot of this conceited things as well as things that just aren't true at all. Everyone who's writing the hate stuff about Vietnamese people are just...wtf man. I saw a person that wrote how we just rip off from Chinese, Korean, Japanese, all that stuff. Well you know what? We barely have ANYTHING that the Japanese have, in Vietnam we learn to how to do many useful things in life at a young age that many Americans can't. Chinese? They freaking ruled over us for many years so our words derived from them. Our writing style derived from French. Korean? You're just naming another country. Most of us are hardworking. You know why? Because most of our parents come from Vietnam coming to America with nearly nothing but their clothes and a few cents of change. There's a few people who don't want to work hard because they're not caring or live in a bad environment, but most of us do. We do not say "du ma" every few seconds, but Americans always ask us how to say "eff you" in Vietnamese, so don't blame us. No we don't all do nails, or all computer engineers, or all doctors and stuff. Yes, we have contributed to modern day. One of the most recent ones is the "mind control wheelchair" for those who are completely paralyzed on their whole body. We aren't all short, or have squeeky voices, or have tiny eyes.
Stereotypes aren't real. If ALL Vietnamese (Asians in general) were small, squeeky voiced, only drive Hondas and Toyotas, eat dog, are Buddhist and have small eyes, then black people all love fried chicken, watermelon, listen to rap, basketball, giant eyes, love purple drank, driving in Cadilacs, and be over 6 feet tall. All white people would be listening to country, hunting, eating deer, and driving trucks.

I'm German and I have plenty of Viet friends. This is what I find. Vietnamese can be the nicest people you have ever met in your life, and at the same time they can be the most dangerous people you have ever encountered. If you are nice to them, they will treat you like family and offer you with all they've got. If you are a bully to them, they will deal with you in private. I find that Vietnamese don't like reporting matters to the authority, or ask for external supports, they tend to take matters in their own hands. And they are an intelligent breed of people. Pleasant, peaceful, intelligent and have a strong sense of reality. They are bad-ass drinkers as well!
To those who take a liking in insulting other people on the internet, that's cheap! Why don't you do that to their face, as one man to another?

if a Vietnamese find out you talk shit behind their back, they'd stab you behind your back, with knife, literally!

A special breed of beings who are patient, hard working, smart, courageous, determined, respectful, and all that forged in their blood. They have survived and won many, many wars in the past thousand years. They have overcome numerous obstacles other people would fail attempting to pass it. The bigger the obstacle the tougher they get. Almost the perfect warrior.

Very smart, friendly, warm-hearted people in the world. Vietnamese are so united and wonderful that could beat a lot of powerful countries in the war, including China, America, Mongolia, Japan. However, nowadays, they still forgive for other countries mistakes that caused a lot of Vietnamese death because they know that war is bad and peace is what everybody wants.
Did you talk to those Vietnamese students in our school?
Oh yeah, they are such a whiz kid and great people.
