Yes, I'm not arguing that the US is good, I'm saying I prefer it to having the authoritarians take over.

The US is the most authoritarian government in the world. How many countries have the Americans invaded in your lifetime?

Do you even know what authoritarian means?

I do. For example America invaded Iraq, Afganistan and bombed Syria, Libya, Yemen, Pakistan and more countries. This is just in the last 20 years.

Is there anything more authoritarian than invading a country and killing the people who live there?

The question is whether you know what authoritarian is.

you are telling me that a society that invades other countries is not authoritarian?

That's the wrong way to use the term.
