How the fuck did they do it?

US reluctance to invade the North + failure to build a competent state that could carry its own weight with as minimal US support as possible.

The US seems to suck a lot at statebuilding. They're good at going into places and killing a lot of people though.

Communism.
It's what turned them from a nation of cowards who surrender entire cities to seven men to a nation of fearless drones who will not hesitate to die by the millions just to kick whitey out of their land

Depends how far you wanna take it. Puppet states still exist and have existed for a long time, and usually at least kinda give lip service to the ideology of their benefactor while getting aid and resources from them.

Well obviously it was a bullshit fake war, because if they want to the Americans could have turned the entire country into a sheet of radioactive glass.

Basically any conflict where they aren't dropping nukes is just a sham to siphon off tax money into the pockets of corrupt contractors.

China had nukes by 1964.

Hey retard, wars tend to have a specific goal in mind like “annex this territory” or “create a friendly puppet government”. Glassing the place kind of defeats the point most of the time.
