As a military action, the Tet offensive was one of the biggest disasters in military history for the NVA/VC. A huge defeat. The Viet Cong suffered such heavy losses from Tet it ceased to be an effective fighting force, was disbanded, and it's men were absorbed into the North Vietnamese Army.

The left manufactured them a winning legacy still nowhere near based in reality to this day.

Exactly. General Giap said as much in his book and also said the intent of TET was to kill more Americans and boost the anti-American opposition in the US. Giap’s blueprint is still used today - Somalia, Afghanistan, Iraq, etc - quite effectively. The UnAmerican antis follow in step as planned by our enemies.
