  2.  @boogaloobomber9889  These people only hate on the USA. They lie about it all the time. Or they don't see the big picture. They have no self-awareness. They're morons. They will never condemn Russia, China or Iran. Only the USA

  3.  @Reports.  Yes, that is partly true. But at the same time, the US gets its trade, and global influence by traveling overseas. That's basic economics and geography. The US has to cross 2 oceans. From 1492-1890, the US (and the American continents in general) were pretty much backwaters. They were ignored by most of the world. Most geopolitics and international affairs throughout history have revolved around Europe, the Middle East and eastern Asia. That's where most of the land masses meet and where most people live. I'm reading George Washington's biography and he talks about how expensive importing goods from Europe is in 1765. The largest reason for slavery in North and South America was to make it economically viable for trade. It even affects culture and international relations. Right up to the 1860's, American soldiers, politicians and aristocrats resented the contempt of their European counter-parts. All this is to say, to be economically powerful, and influential, the US has to travel overseas. It has to make defensive alliances. It has to protect it's trade and financial investments. Simply because it's surrounded by two massive oceans. Without it's military and economy, the US would quickly fall to irrelevance, even if it's culture remained somewhat influenceable. Any time the US government has to be responsible to attacks on the American people (9/11, Pearl Harbor, etc.), it has to travel overseas. European countries, Russia, Iran and China don't have to do the same because they aren't separated by huge oceans (for the most part). It sounds horrible, but the reality of geopolitics means that is the best strategy for the US.
