The Vietnam War was not universally popular among American civilians; in fact, it was highly controversial and sparked significant protests. However, some initial support stemmed from the Cold War context, where many Americans believed in the need to contain communism. Additionally, the government's portrayal of the war as a fight for freedom and democracy resonated with certain segments of the population. Over time, as the war's human and economic costs became apparent, public sentiment shifted dramatically against it.
