Both sides here are delusional in my opinion.

Those people you mentioned bowser? They aren't unstable but they are threats to their own people. It doesn't matter if they receive a few benefits here and there, it doesn't make up for the corrupt regime in power. A government good to others is not always good to it's own people, and a government good to their own people is not always good to others. Also? The US is no exception to these rules.

RobVG, who preformed syphilis experiments on poor black people in the 50's without their knowledge and then refused them treatment or compensation at every opportunity?

Who used US AND canadian citizens as test subjects for a mental manipulation experiment?

Who covertly infiltrated numerous nations and blackmailed, assassinated, and/or overthrew for control?

Who established numerous laws over the decades taking away the rights of foreigners and immigrants to the US, either blocking them from jobs and homes, or outright imprisoning them in "internment camps"?

Who stole land from Mexico, and overthrew the Kingdom of Hawaii due to nationalist zeal and/or business interests?

Who meddles and interferes with other nations in ways they have not right to, even if they do consider themselves some "world peacekeeper"?

You are taking an opportunity here to paint the US a saint. We're FAR from that.
