Why do people keep saying we lost the Vietnam War when we signed the Paris Peace Accords with the North Vietnamese in 1972? Saigon didn't fall until 1975, almost three years later. Wouldn't it be more accurate to say the South Vietnamese lost the Second Vietnam war?
A lot to be said on this but try this thread with contributions from /u/Bernardito, /u/buy_a_pork_bun and /u/true_new_troll.
