US has convinced itself and many of the most powerful nations (ie the West) that it is China that is trying to “take over other nations” or otherwise control them by “expanding their empire.” Even though they are not, and are anti-imperialist. Or how places like Cuba aren’t allowed to be traded with due to their “oppressive governments.” But the US is still somehow the “good guys” and should just be allowed to patrol the whole world by land, air, sea, and space. That it is allowed to strike and occupy other nations without any approval by said nations. Oh and it is also somehow fair or good that even if all other nations in the UN vote one way that the US can stop a democratic vote by voting the other way.

Just love how this is what US lead democracy for the world works. /s
