We didn’t lose, we left. It’s really that simple. Check the kill ratio and tell me we “lost”

During the Vietnam War, the U.S. military suffered 58,220 deaths, while Vietnamese deaths across military and civilian sectors ranged from roughly 800,000 to over 2 million.

The objective of us being there was to stop the spread of communism. It spread to south Vietnam, so we lost. North Vietnam signed the peace treaty in bad faith.

Ok but like real life isn’t a video game, wining and losing is not dictated from a scoreboard or even a piece of paper saying you won. It’s dictated by what you get out of it. If we didn’t achieve the objective or got anything of equal value, then all we did is kill a bunch of innocent people, wasted a bunch of money, and got a bunch of our people killed. That is not a victory in the eyes of history nor should it be.

If we had left europe in 1945, and by 1947 Hitler is back in power, all of western europe was under nazi rule including the UK it would be a bit silly to say we won right?

It’s scary how many people automatically believe historical takes from TikToks. What the guys in this video are leaving out is Vietnamization. The draft lottery was the final nail in the coffin for the U.S. war effort in Vietnam. Nixon knew the war was unwinnable. He devised a plan to negotiate peace while handing over combat operations to the ARVN. The North signed the treaty and simply bided their time. The Watergate distraction was the perfect opportunity to ignore the treaty and invade the South. The peace treaty wasn’t “America winning the war.” It was Nixon trying to save face and North Vietnam patronizing him.

We won the war after the Tet offensive, the Viet Minh and Kong were almost completely wiped out from the Tet, it was 100% a last ditch suicide mission that left their forces with like 5% of their original strength. And the NVA was defeated very early in the war because they tried to fight conventionally

We made North Vietnam sign a peace treaty and we’re gone for like 2 years before they broke the treaty and took over the South. How the hell is that us losing the war? Did everybody lose WW1 because Germany did WW2?

The point of going into Vietnam was the Communists were about to take over the whole country and the USA went in to stop that. After years of fighting a bloody stalemate and spending over $300 billion, guess what happened? The Communists took over the whole country.
