They both have a bit in common. They're both communist Asian states that the US went to war with during the Cold War and did not win. But the messaging regarding the two states is a lot different. DPRK is treated like the worst dictatorship ever, that kills you and your family for even thinking that the Kims are less than gods, whilst also starving. But Vietnam, they say... nothing.

Why isn't Vietnam demonized like DPRK?

Its damning when they chose chauvinism (deserved or otherwise) and align themselves with the very same nation that bombed them with agent orange, over the many socialists and anti-imperialist states, not to forget also trading weapons with israhell.

Like that is a total betrayal on Khruschevite levels and spits on everything the Vietnamese people fought for. Vietnamese communists need to hold their leadership accountable and kick out the revisionists and pro-americans, or risk becoming an enemy of the free peoples of this world.
