<aside> 🔴 Summary: A satirical take on a nationalist voice bot that loves 🇺🇸 and hates 🇻🇳 Thanks Chau, Hien and Nicole for the feedback!
</aside>
I decided to start the demo with an English-speaking bot that loves America and hates Vietnam, and end with a Vietnamese-speaking bot that loves Vietnam and hates China, since Sinophobia is common amongst Vietnamese/most South East Asians right now. I wanted to leave it as an open ending, to show how it's part of an ongoing cycle of unprocessed trauma.
Fun fact: the last shot was actually in Hanoi ;) I switched it Ho Chi Minh for narrative consistency reasons lmao sorry but also ty Chau (who shot it <3)
