Wilsonianism is actually Houseianism. Everyone knows that.

On the flipside, four more years of Trump will be great for their fundraising!

Dehumanization is easier than introspection.

Said the kettle to the pot. The two key pieces of information you're missing here is that I've never reveled in US Intervention, and I've seen no indication that you have ever considered you might be wrong about anything.

This would be a hell of a promo for his next metal album.

Sho nuff. If we're that similar, better be careful not to succumb to the base behaviour described below.

And just fyi, regarding this:

I believe he's also said something like "There's always gonna be an empire" to justify accepting American imperialism in a different post.

But here's where I wave you guys off as being non-serious. You never answer my argument. You haven't given me any reason to think I'm wrong. I'm not going to sit here and say some Ben Shapiro **** like "prove it", but your stance, to me, seems history agnostic.

If not America, then who comes next and why is it better?

It's sad and unfortunate that this is the way the world works. But we have more say over our governance than most countries with the military to get involved abroad. It's the best of a bad lot.
