Please provide sources for the millions of deaths. Your post sounds like an anti-capitalist screed more than an argument against US military hegemony. Consider that alternative of world war and Russian or Chinese imperialism.

China has been reducing it's dollar holdings at breakneck speed once it saw the US freeze dollars held by Russia. https://www.ceicdata.com/en/china/holdings-of-us-treasury-securities/holdings-of-us-treasury-securities https://www.ceicdata.com/en/china/holdings-of-us-treasury-se... https://ticdata.treasury.gov/Publish/mfh.txt https://ticdata.treasury.gov/Publish/mfh.txt
