The earths’ resources are finite and we are in a competition for them. Technology and AI make the race for energy even more intense.

If your country was as large as the US or China it too would likely be a “bully.”

France is still a bully in Africa when it wants to be.

I also bought into all our cultural exports as a child and believed we were going to war for freedom and Democracy. As I get older I see the truth. It was all geopolitics.

Freedom and Democracy were just icing on the cake if we managed to preserve it wherever we were sending our kids to die.
