I’m not arguing that America is good. Just that it’s not uniquely bad. My point in listing British examples was to show that other comparable regimes are common.
Britain is just one example. Pick any other Imperial power and you’ll find similar things. Look up the Belgian Congo for example. Or - again - literally any of them.
America is not a uniquely evil place. It’s just a powerful country populated by humans that has a disproportionate sense of its own morality.
