    America is an endless expansionist that has illegally invaded multiple neighbours by force while calling it a “military exercise”.

    America has a semi dictator that gave themselves full unlimited power after being elected once and has since then meddled in every election in order to win

    Hmm, not really

      Yes?

      The US literally overthrew their democracy, and then when elections took place within a bourgeois ‘democracy’ interfered in those too. Russia post-overthrow of USSR could never have become a democracy, the US wouldn’t have allowed it.

        Also Texas and California. If we change the point of view of what constitutes power in USA this days from precidency to wealth, both questions are easily answered, specially considering all the elections USA or money coming from USA has meddled with (Chile for starters, Mexico, Honduras, Argentina, Guatemala, Cuba, Libya, Iran, …).

        Yes?

        Which do you think applies? The US hasn’t added any territory lately that I’m aware of.
