If you think that America has the moral authority to demand other states stop their human rights abuses, you probably don't know a thing about the extent nor magnitude of America's own human rights crimes. A nation that drops bombs on innocent people every twenty minutes for twenty years has zero moral authority when it comes to calling out other nations' human rights abuses - until their own abuses are appropriately addressed. Anything less is just a failure to understand basic ethics. You can call anything a fallacy - the idea that Americans have a higher moral authority on the subject of human rights is just ludicrous and worthy of a great deal of ridicule in light of the statistics of "Americans killing other innocent people for fundamentally racist/bigoted reasons" .. the real fallacy is that the American people think their nation has a 'right' to act with moral authority over any other nation. They really, really don't.
