The Democrat party told us over and over we couldn’t win in Vietnam so when they got in power they made sure they were right.

Yep. Exactly so. Here’s a quote by Jerry Pournelle that fairly puts the situation in order,

“And in Viet Nam the North sent 150,000 men south with as much armor as the Wehrmacht had in many WW II engagements. That was in 1973, and of that 150,000 fewer than 50,000 men and no armor returned to the North, at a cost of under 1,000 American casualties. Most would count that an outstanding victory. (Alas, in 1975 North Viet Nam had another army of over 100,000 and sent it South; the Democratic Congress voted our South Vietnamese 20 cartridges and 2 hand grenades per man, but refused naval and air support; Saigon predictably became Ho Chi Minh city as we pushed helicopters off the decks of our carriers in our frantic evacuation; but that is hardly the fault of the US military).”

It is trivially true that capturing a people means destroying the ability of rival organizations to organize and replacing them with your own forms of organization.

But the irony of pointing this out is that that is the very thing a ‘democratic’ army was ideologicaly precluded from doing by it’s priestly dominators. A state of war is ended by the establishment of an order of rulership; but rulership is undemocratic, so the violence of chaos can never end.

A further payload of his squidink is to imply that ‘dumb redneck warriors dont realise that throwing bombs on peoples heads doesnt work’ — but of course, throwing bombs on people’s heads is extremely effective, which is the whole point of the gaslighting; invidious pseudopriests attempting to neuter their warrior class neighbors by denying them any means of expressing power.
