    America Literally every powerful nation is known for modeling in foreign affairs, sponsoring coups and starting civil wars, and just straight up invading places.

    Many of those other nations are much worse than the US.

    America has been holding the world back in the sense of separating combatants in fist fights. We have been global peacekeepers for almost a century now and it’s been an incredibly good thing for the human race. Not to mention our technological advancements. The rise of the USA has been a good thing for humanity, though it does have its downsides.

      The first part is sort of true, but nobody does it more aggressively than America and Russia.

      You aren’t even close to peacekeepers. You are literally sponsoring genocide in Palestine. You started a whole war in Vietnam and then lost. Stop pretending to be the good guys.
