There’s a half truth here. It’s nonsense to say that TPTB “chose” to lose to Vietnam. However, it is true that the military-industrial complex pushes for “forever wars” as they provide a steady revenue stream.

yeah, this is just getting 50% of the way there and then doing no proper analysis and taking a psychotic turn

"hmmm, it does seem like capitalists enjoy being fully entwined with our military command and work to prolong wars and suffering to make money, directly transferred to them from the working class... which is why we must nuke all muslims instead because america big stronk! once we slaughter everyone more quickly, they'll have to spend money on us instead!"

Honestly reading the OP, it seems more like they want it for the purpose of reflecting how strong America is; they want a mass slaughter for vanity's sake
