Yeah freedom ends at the US border, it seems. Though, the US is kind of a mixed bag in this regard for me. Being in the Asia-pacific region, I think they do a lot to benefit the little guys over the Chinese bully. And their words influence other governments so we see the UK and others follow suit and have awareness of human rights abuses raised.
But in other cases, typically where there's a lot of oil, we see a totally different story. It no longer becomes left and right, but where you happen to live and how the US happens to be either infecting or curing the situation according to their own whims and monetary goals.
