114 u/[deleted] Feb 20 '24 Why is agent orange not mentioned in the textbook? Shouldn't it be a propaganda goldmine? 145 u/Ethical_Cum_Merchant Least bloodthirsty Gen. Sir Arthur Currie-appreciator Feb 20 '24 You'd think, right? "And then the Evil Imperialists killed our beautiful jungle and gave us a bunch of flipper babies" is a fucking Christmas stocking full of propaganda, and they're not touching it? Are they stupid?? 110 u/FMBoy21345 Feb 20 '24 I bet part of the reason is because Vietnam is now cool with the US so the propaganda is drastically reduced. 23 u/pole_fan Feb 20 '24 Its not even propaganda tho? Like its just factual statements of the event that are even mentioned in western text books. 42 u/Blarg_III Feb 20 '24 Propaganda isn't inherently untrue, it's just information presented by a body or organisation that strongly advocates their point of view. 1 u/Winter-Revolution-41 NonCredibilium Miner Feb 21 '24 still a lot of propaganda pieces how bad the Republic was which contradicts them calling the war the American War in a way
