I know there's the 10hr Ken Burns documentary or whatever but it feels like most resources online are extremely focused on the individual experience of Vietnam and not so much the systemic causes (or, if they mention these, it's in the very neoliberal bureaucracy-explainer type of way).

Does anyone have any articles or documentaries about Vietnam that don't try to interpret it through a very Neoliberal lens?

If the Vietnam equivalent of the Blowback podcast exists, I want to listen to it.

    If you don't mind reading a long book, you can check out "Anatomy of a War" by Gabriel Kolko. It looks at the various social, economic, and historical factors that led to the war.
