Dispute this given some successes ie Syria. The point is not ‘regime change’ though it’s the US in global affairs. Which when we look at policy in Israel or Ukraine or counterterrorism holds up. Not a fan of the simplistic term when so much more is happening.

Most western outlets don’t agree with you. Cutting off trade because of extreme red-green propaganda mongering is a bad precedent internationally.

Still totalitarianism, which is a current that doesn’t have much differentiation from ML Stalinism.

It’s a defensive system.
