Maybe the issue is the power imbalance rather than the innately evil Amerikkkans? No, silly me, I forgot, it's Good Camp and Bad Camp.

As will be, likely as not, anyone who takes their place. That's why a more equitable distribution of power is so important. As long as we allow a few countries to dominate world affairs, they will continue to attempt (to varying degrees depending on their interests, public mood, and political class) to do so to their own benefit (or rather, to the decision-makers' benefit) regardless of the morality of their actions.
They'll continue to do so as long as their respective population allows them
We here inside the country definitely need to fight harder against this sentiment. A short decade ago, I would arguably count myself among them, albeit not in an interventionist sense, but in a hegemonic "It's okay that we pay Europe's way in defense; nothing bad or sapping of the EU's independence could ever come of it!"
I... had a lot more faith in the modern American electorate before the first Trump administration.
Hegemony is unsafe and corrupting for all parties, and should be reduced wherever possible.
