Oh boy...this must be Biden's strategy before his election.

I mean, your interpretation is as valid as mine. But I think you haven't done my words justice in your summary of the points that I made to support my interpretation. You've either responded before reading my whole comment or you've spent too much time on Reddit.
An analogy is such because it's not a 1:1 representation and it never will be. If it were meant to be a perfect representation of the Vietnam war then it would be a biopic or a documentary. There's no inviolable rule that you can't invert parts of your allegory and clearly this was done to make a Hollywood blockbuster action-scifi film.
The predator wasn't a coloniser imo. There's less in the movie to support the idea that the predator was colonising the jungle than there is for the Vietnam war allegory. A foreigner in a different land doesn't amount to colonisation.
I was trying to find the quote from someone who was involved in production who said that if it were a few years earlier then Predator would have been set in Vietnam when I came across this opinion piece which makes a better case for the film being a Vietnam War allegory (while explaining the predator's high tech) than I did.
Maybe I'm blessed because I haven't been exposed to nearly anything from the NAFO chuds but I'd absolutely believe this from a group of people who are rapidly circling the ideological drain hole that is fascism.
