Most countries have some dark past, sure, and of course some more than others. But, in terms of consistency, extent and persistence, none come even close to the US. Just look at the Wikipedia article article I linked, and also this one: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_involvement_in...

Just pointing out what is known history shouldn't be considered hypocrisy. Nor did I claim the US was alone in doing "bad stuff". So, I suppose you identify your argument as a straw man?

You are more than welcome to counter argue the actual point, by suggesting a present day contender.
