Democracy had no meaning in America, it's just become a nationalist buzzword. "Spreading democracy" is the most obviously bullshit phrase that you hear all the time. We don't even have democracy here! We're a republic with shit levels of popular representation! How are we spreading democracy when everytime we invade a place, we appoint some white shit head or a local warlord as leader? What's democratic about that?
He got everything right except for the bizarre framing of our imperialism as "a desire to spread American values". We actually just want their shit.
Taking other peoples shit is America's real values though.
Exactly, these idiots might think that "Democracy" is purely an "American" thing. Like everyone else is dumb enough to try it.

"American values" aka might is right and using the threat of force to ensure economic compliance to keep the dollar the global currency.
