That's called confirmation bias. The US has interests like any other country on Earth. Sometimes thats a good thing, other times it's not. Blanket generalizations and simplifications like this, just show you're not even paying attention, you're just looking for whatever confirms your own beliefs already.
Name a time after world war 2 where the US was justified in a military action in another country.
Considering the motives that drove us to finally join WW2, I'm not even 100% comfortable calling the US justified there.
Still better than the goddamn frenchies and anglos, who raised and hand-fed face-eating leopards, needing to have their faces torn off to be convinced
"boy these leopards are mighty mean, we should probably put them down"
Hello still waiting on this list of justified conflicts
You misspelled 'confirmation: based'.
wanna name one ?
Not necessarily. Confirmation bias involves some emotionally charged interpretation of data rather than inductive reasoning. But nothing OP said seems emotionally charged.

Yeah sure, compiling a list of US atrocities requires one to assume there are enough to compile the list and seek out details on each item. But if you take a look, the far more salient fact IMO is that it is a giant list spanning the history of the US from even before the US was officially a nation. An alien might just induce that the US is actually quite a violent institution, either in isolation, or compared to similar lists for other nations on earth
Good post
somebody @ me if this lib delivers
Name exactly one
If you are a communist, I’d say the American project is antithetical to your beliefs lol
The US is not "just like any other country on Earth". They are the global hegemonic empire with 700 bases worldwide that have engaged in 50+ coups and dozens of invasions, killing tens of millions of people. Not one other nation is "just like this"
