It's stunning how many people seem to forget that there are other countries on the planet that use dollars and weren't involved in Vietnam. No, I'm not making an assumption. The person who posted this is Canadian.

Y'all really need to take a step back and reflect a little bit.

Not specific enough. Going by typical evil genie rules you'd be born in 47', but be a poc in like Alabama or Oklahoma. Just in time to get drafted to fight in Vietnam and then have to fight for civil rights at home.

Have your house torn down for a highway two years after buying it maybe?

Im amazed that ever worked. If you forcibly tore my house down to build a road, you'd find that that road had a tendency to explode... every week or so
