Except for when you're systematically murdering us for years, then not so much.
C'mon Rei - American crusades in South America have exactly tried to pretend to be for the benefit of "the people" The US is a messianic exporter of its religion - "democracy" and it'll undermine functional alternatives everywhere but it saves its strongest reaction for whites

The US does not actually export democracy in the instances being described. Instead, it enters the scene, identifies specific strategic interests, and immediately sets about utilising local forces which are aligned to the most retrogressive forces, and makes a deal with them.

It's not that the US shows up and suddenly airdrops its own system in. It shows up and prevents people from overturning whatever the existing system happens to already be. In Central America and Asia, that's usually semifeudalism.
