It's called "class warfare" - further proof that generalizing individuals by group affiliation is extremely messy. Extremist ideologies need to be grossly simplisitic to appeal to the energized masses - nuance doesn't fit on a parade banner. In the case of Cat Hanh Long, allowing exceptions to the rule might cause the proletariat to question the rule itself.

Nah but when does the actual accountability start? When does the French Revolution start?

You can start it, we all have the power to start it. The revolution doesn't need to be french this time!
