I don’t know what that is, but it’s such an American mindset as sad as that is. A lot of people can’t comprehend that the point of war isn’t to completely depopulate a country. People like that dude in the OP think we won in Vietnam because we killed millions of people.
It’s the settler, barbarian mentality. Exclusive to the so-called “civilized world” under whose 500 years of terror unparalleled deprivation, the destruction of entire (actual) civilizations and peoples, and mass slaughter, genocides, and slavery existed across the globe to such an extent as was previously unimaginable.
They should be grateful that the rest of humanity- those who actually embrace humanity- don’t have that same mentality, that the overwhelming majority of humanity does not seek revenge or anything comparable to it, but simply restitution, reparations, independence, and deterrence. Otherwise all of western Europe (except Ireland and certain ethnic enclaves/regions) and the settler-encampments in Isntreal and across the Anglosphere would have long ago been eradicated in their entirety and even then that would not be enough considering the crimes they’ve done and continue to commit.
Even then the causality difference isn’t quite as extreme if you count South Vietnamese army loses. The US always prefers to have it’s puppets take the blunt.
“We lost the war politically but not casualties.” How to tell people you’ve never read Clausewitz.
