Sure sounds like the fight was worth it compared to how the US-aligned developing countries turned out.

Yeah, who would want to be a shithole like South Korea or Taiwan? /s

The fight of Vietnam against American occupation was correct on its own merits - namely, that of the morality of national self-determination. Trying to bring in other criteria doesn't strengthen the point, and can very well weaken it.
