How vietnam war heigtened social and political tensions in the united staets?

The Vietnam War was a very unpopular war, and many U.S. citizens did not approve of the war. Despite this, the U.S, Government remained in the war even though there was absolutely no way the U.S. was going to win the war. The U.S. had no reason to be involved in the Vietnam War but remained in the war anyway. Thousands of soldiers were slaughtered daily for no purpose whatsoever, and people were very sick of it. Tensions were further increased when The New York Times and Washington Post published leaked top-secret documents that made it evident that the Government had been lying about Vietnam for almost two decades, obfuscating public knowledge of the war to stay in it. Riots and protests erupted in the street and citizens of all ages, race, and gender fought to end the pointless war.
