I'm fully aware of the failures of US Foreign Policy.
But when you argue about a topic that affects the security of the US, there really is no such thing as "moral high ground".
Edited to add:
I believe China holds that true as well when discussing the security of China, considering the number of spies that are in the US.

- natalyarostova 9y agoClassifying something as tribalism doesn't make it not an important or real factor to be acted upon. Although I think the term nationalism is more pointed. I live in the US. My family lives in the US, and my well-being is attached to the success of the US. I'm not arbitrarily in favor of everything the US does, but on the margin, I am in favor of policies that optimize this country's success.
