This is a very uncharitable view of how foreign policy works. It is absolutely in our best interest to not only maintain strong diplomatic ties with peoples and countries who share our values, but also cooperate in defense efforts and ensuring safety and security from military actions that would undo things we benefit from in the long term.

- _DeadFred_ 2y agoSadly America's politicians stopped explaining this and took the American public's support for granted expected us to see things the way the Greatest Generation did. Our allies took our support for granted and spent their money elsewhere, then started making fun of us for subsidizing their affordable healthcare. Our political class getting lazy and stopping doing the hard half of their jobs (effectively communicating and building national consensus) and instead adopting Jon Stewart levels of discourse and you get where we are today.
