That's the fundamental thing people miss. The MO of the US isn't power for any sake other than to maximize misery and abuse in the world. If they had a button to give everyone 20 million dollars they wouldn't press it, but they would immediately press a button that did the opposite.
You're getting downvoted but you're right.
It's not that the US's people in power are fundamentally evil (well they kinda are but you know what I mean), it's just that its role as the leader of the imperial core since WW2, and its complete rule by the capitalist class means there's nothing it can do but maximize suffering in the world to keep the rest of the world economically and militarily subjugated for as long as it can.
And it will be this way until and unless its capitalist system is completely destroyed.
Honestly at this point I don't think they're a slave to capitalism so much as they're using capitalism as the system to maximize harm. We're talking about a nation that was built on the genocide of an entire people, a point oven severely downplayed by even the most progressive.
