I’m not sure being Vietnam in this scenario is particularly desirable.
Not being completely defeated during a bloody invasion isn’t the same as never being invaded.
- naniwaduni 3y agoBeing Vietnam would suck, sure, but being in Vietnam also sucked and is avoidable. (And who do you think has the resources to pull a Vietnam on the US?)
- stetrain 3y agoSure. I’m not advocating for the US invading Vietnam. But holding up Vietnam and Ukraine as examples of successful outcomes is also missing the horror and destruction wrought on those countries and their people in the process. The commenter I replied to is using the fantasy of armed citizens valiantly repelling invaders in their backyards in guerilla warfare to support the idea that “Literally nothing.” would happen without the US military.
