    The US is liked because it creates world stability for a huge portion of the globe.

    lol, no.

      You can lol all you want but there is a reason why the majority of the world uses the USD as the reserve currency.

      Facts are facts. Agree with it or not.

          And this negates my point how? Or was that to back up my point?

            I do not see that as the US being the benevolent beacon of freedom and safety they claim to be, no.

              Where did I say it was? Reading comprehension is terrible in this thread

        It’s also a fact that the US started multiple long wars for oil or influence.

          And this again makes my point invalid how? Most of you seem to think empires magically gained their power via holding hands with everyone.

        What is that reason? Be specific.

          As in why? It’s because we dump a massive amount of money into our military might and play world police. The majority of us want out, but we’ve created a monster that everyone hates but relies on.

            You sure can rely on the US meddling in global affairs when they have no right yeah. All you need is the “might” right?

              You are correct, but that isn’t negating my point

                Which is what exactly? “The US is liked because it creates stability in the world” is propaganda, not a point

                  It’s not propaganda lol, the fuck are you on. Countries leaders and their economics like the USA because it created stability in global markets.

                  You’re naive as fuck if you think this isn’t true… it’s literally been like this for nearly a century.
