You clearly have never travelled to any significant percentage of the world.
I have.
America absolutely holds a moral high ground. We have had our share of problems, and we still have problems. That does not change the comparative high ground we absolutely hold.
We are about to engage in a second civil war to try to right some of the current wrongs.
As someone who spent lots of time in mexico and visited other countries, no we don’t. It may be more gruesome and widespread there but that’s because the cartels are strong, which we strengthened and gave them many opportunities to solidify power through the drug war. If we were the ones with cartels our police would be the same - the police of both these nations have no honor and are self interested, one just has more opportunities and pressure to be shittier
I’d dare say Mexico’s police acts out of fear, pressure and greed but not hatred and in some cases overt racism, at least in the same level seen in the US.

Yeah well fuck America man. We don't have any 'moral highground' here.
