Seriously. Here’s a map of US military installations across the world, plus the US has a stranglehold on large portions of South America. They may not treat everyone as poorly as the British did, but they sure love to kill brown people to get their natural resources.
Its a map with red spots. I didn’t know we controlled the UK or Australia? You are really stretching the idea of imperialism or colonialism to include where the US has bases. Ironically counter to your statement the map has very little of south america in red. Also or a another point of humor your map doesn’t include Liberia. A country the US took over and dumped as many former slaves as they could there. One of main proponents of this action was Abraham Lincoln. Who preferred shipping former slaves back there rather than they remain in the US.

Truth is the UK is responsible for more independence days around the world than any other nation. There is a meme about it
I don’t get what your point is. Your comment is primarily disjointed, rambling criticism. Are you just doing the ol’ Reddit “I have nothing useful or interesting to add to this conversation, so I’m just going to criticize some comments so I can feel better about myself”?

Their reply was cogent, interesting, informative and importantly, correct.
I’m curious, what parts of thier comment confuses you?
Not going to defend America. We’ve done a lot of terrible things.
But when it comes to our military bases? Just imagine the world if we weren’t there.
It wouldn’t be a utopia. I guarantee that the regional power in that area would be grinding those people under their heels.
Especially the Emu. They faught a war against them. The Emu won.
Do you really want to live in a world with Emu hegimony!?

Do emus even have heels?
Not sure if I want to find out.
While you’re dodging the beak, they’re treating you asunder!
Damn, I this is not what I expected
The raptors from Jurassic Park clearly took inspiration from the Emu. It’s probably where the “farting into a Pringles can” growls came from .
These are basically dinosaurs of today…
