I think it is you who has a naive view of the world because at the moment in US diplomacy, there are no carrots, there are only sticks and the world is definitely sick and tired of that shit.

You are aware that global trade only exists as it is now for the last 70 years due to the US Navy protecting shipping routes and basically for free, right?
If you think there are "no carrots" offered by the US, you're a silly person living in a fantasy world. Clearly there are carrots because the US has lots of positive diplomatic relationships with a pretty large percentage of the world's countries.
We don't do this through having a boot on everyone's neck. We don't live in some fantasy story where the US is "The Great Evil".
