When you begin guerilla warfare against your white friends and you actually beat them despite their use of napalm
Carl- Shut your mouth boy or ill beat you good
Wang- Ill pull a vietnam on you
Carl- fucking runs fearing the political implications of starting a proxy war with the Soviet Union in an undeveloped country.
Vietnam is the funny war with no true winner or purpose, 556,000 US troops died
thousands of bloodlines ruined by agent orange
There are still old men out in the jungle lost not knowing the war is over
Hey Grandpa whatβs the Vietnam War
Getting slingshotted to Vietnam for committing crimes against humanity
You killed my friend on among us, vietnamed!
This country sits near Cambodia and Thailand in far south-east Asia. it is also known on the internet as a country of which many memes that direct to having flashbacks to. This is due to the Vietnam war, in which many veterans came back with mental trauma, possibly causing flashbacks. This was made into a meme afterwards, only in a light-heart way, as opposed to the horrors of what soldiers saw (which caused the trauma aforementioned trauma).
My brother visits Vietnam all the time. He says he goes to the war memorial with his wife.

RE: the 2 million North Vietnamese Casualties included civilians.
Not true. Around 4 MILLION civilians were killed as a result of the war. In response to the idea that there were many other countries involved other than south vietnam is preposterous. Vietnam is much like Iraq is today: a handful of soldiers from allied countries.
The United States did not get its ass kicked The paris peace accords were signed and as a result the troops were taken withdrawn and american POWs were released. Nixon told the south vietnamese that he would send soldiers back in if the treaty was broken.
However, Nixon was fighting for his political life due to the watergate scandal and along with his resignation went an ally to south vietnam. President Ford didn't give a shit about vietnam and the North vietnamese knew this.
The weak North took control of the South and america shrugged. This wasn't because of an ass kicking, this was because america didn't think this was there war to fight and only did so because 'hawks' controlled the white house.
The North Vietnamese took control over the South, but only because the U.S allowed them to do so. Not because the U.S was bested.

A traumatic event or bad situation from which you need to escape immediately.
So that party last night, all the underage kids started puking up. We were loading them into ambulances to get their stomachs pumped and their parents were turning up. Fucking Vietnam, man.

The Americans used 1/10 of the total american military. Nukes were not used nor where many other advanced weapons. The generals in the army wanted to invade north vietnam but couldnt because the president was an idiot. 3 million communists were killed, 50 thousand americans. Maybe we didnt win, but if politics didnt run the army, we would have.
To say america cant beat vietnam is so stupid i could puke. look at facts you morons.
