I find this analysis lacking and boarderline idealistic. I will start with Vietnam did have a civil war, and I would argue more well known than the Chinese Civil war, that being known, atleast in America as the Vietnam war. I would also point out IIRC the CPC views the cultural revolution as a miss step, but I could be wrong on that so someone who knows more feel free to correct me.
Second the United States, dispite loosing, had Vietnam pay them reporations, essentially making all of that a loan to South Vietnam that the Unified Vietnam had to pay back, and so from what I have heard and red Vietnam moved to a more market based socialism and opened up inorder to pay back the reputations thet where somehow saddled with.
Third, I don't see, personally a huge difference in what Vietnam was attempting to do, and what the PRC was able to do, just Vietnam was less successful, but reports I hear from those in Vietnam say that Vietnam is Still a Dictatorship of the Prolitarate, and I am not sure that I have enough information to disagree, however I am more than willing to change my mind if evidence is presented.
Lastly I dont know much about trade with Israel, however I do know that both the PRC also does trading and the Communist Party of Vietnam is very pro palistine
If i am missing sometimes or am blind in my analysis please however let me know,
Since you used the term "civil war", I have to voice my disagreement: https://lemmygrad.ml/post/11108969/7978833
I hope you don't find me annoying.
Thank you so much for the context. You are in no way annoying in the slightest.
My appologies for the oversight and innacuracy
Would youvlike me to edit my above comment to reflect this?
I'm glad you understand.
I am not offended by it. Rather, I think the word "civil war" reflects a slight inadequate understanding of the Vietnam War. This is why I felt I need to provide more accurate information and correction.
The issue is not with the language, but rather the underlying misunderstanding caused by, perhaps, decades of US propaganda. Changing it shall not change the underlying lack of understanding. But by replying to you, providing information and context, I think that's enough.
