Do I want the rest of the world to think the US is an evil empire?

No, but it is not an evil empire, and they think that anyway. They think what they enjoy thinking.

If someone is big and powerful, everybody wants to find faults and problems and mistakes and flaws with that person. It is the same thing with countries.

So, I would rather be right than popular. Popular is temporary. Right is permanent.
