| DTG said: People see the US as exerting it's dominance and control through economic, cultural, politicaL and military means. It doesn't need to kill vast amounts of people to be a totalitarian regime in this day and age. The common term "imperialist" when applied to the US sums it up quite well. The US is controlling and expansionist but it does so through economy and culture and it's political weight rather than guns (though Iraq is an example of the US becoming more aggressive in expanding it's influence) |
.....And how is China, or Europe doing that any differently? Both are exerting their dominance in their own spheres of influence as well.
But again, to compare an "imperialist" United States with historical nations that killed and brutalized millions of people is quite a stretch, no?
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
