    How is this possible with the Vietnam war, Castro hate and cold war incidents with Cuba? I've seen something like this before and don't understand how American minds come up with Russia and Venezuela and not Cuba and Vietnam

      We did a war at them so that means they're free now

        I guess i shouldn't be surprised if schools don't talk about how the us lost and especially not that the commies won

        Lol yeah I guess, I know why americans overestimate the threat and socialism of Russia and Venezuela but I'm a bit surprised that they don't know more about the Vietnamese, Korean or Cold war

      I'm not saying they haven't heard of them, but I suspect it's because they're not big basically, as well as being 'important' only in the past.
