    I’m honestly not sure if you’re trolling or just incredibly ignorant about US American history. America is constantly invading other countries, inciting and supporting coups, stealing resources, murdering civilians. It’s just what they do, have done historically, and will continue to do

      Alright but so did the Vikings and the Spartans but we don’t refer to it as a Viking Empire or the Spartan Empire because that’s not what the word means. Making an Empire means claiming territories as your own and colonizing foreign lands.

      EDIT: Had my comment threads mixed up earlier. Not going to fix it.
