Deng was only being blatantly honest.
How many people died due do US involvement to "restore order"? [1]
I know from experience what happened to Greece and Argentina and I wouldn't call it an accomplishment nor something that made the World a better place.
There are no reasons to consider "being liberal" a goal, it's just one of the options, doesn't mean it's the best or the only one.
Of course the US cannot afford to not be hyper-liberal (meaning in reality hyper-capitalistic-run-by-greedy-corporations) because it would kill their economy, even though it could benefit a large squat of the population that, for one reason or another, is being considered a burden for the society by the "liberals" whose only solution is "throw money at the problem and hide it under the carpet".
