You are being downvoted for stating an uncomfortable truth.
Europeans don’t like it when you interrupt their tirade against America, to ask them about Belgium in the Congo, or Great Britain, France, Spain, Portugal, and others oppressing their colonies across the world, or operating the slave trade that fueled early America, or destroying the Central American civilizations for their gold and jewels, or fomenting countless wars, all happening for centuries before America was even born, but it’s all America’s fault.
The simple truth is that all governments are shitty, and we all have very uncomfortable histories. Acknowledge it, teach it, and commit to not repeating it. That’s the best strategy. Arguing over which psychopathic society is better, is stupid.
