she was right about vietnam

we were the bad guys in that

I'm not so sure about that anymore. If we didn't intervene the entire country would have gone communist. That wouldn't be good for Vietnam or the world. Also these proxy wars keep larger, direct conflicts between world powers from occuring and potentially leading to another world war. Everyone seems happy enough to do it with Ukraine.

The Vietnam War was one of the first propaganda wars we lost.

communism goes wrong when capitalists sabotage it and drive it to militarism to defend itself
