Carl's Jr/Vietnam Conspiracy

For two years now something has been bothering me. Has anyone else ever noticed how much the Carl's Jr. logo and the Vietnamese flag look alike?




Maybe it's because I lived up the street from a Carl's Jr. in LA that this thought always pops into my head:

2. The color scheme is basically the exact same: yellow and red.
3. The smiley face in the Carl's Jr. flag is almost identical to the cartoonish Vietnamese propaganda posters all over this country. Like this one:

I'm not sure what the conspiracy theory is but just be mindful next time you bite into a Carl's Jr. burger.
