You didn’t make a point. All you did was provide a list of good things and then point at it. I could make a list of all the good things accomplished by the United States or the UK, but that doesn’t suddenly invalidate the bad.
I could make you a list of bad actions committed by the governments you view favorably. Then you would simply either engage in “whataboutism” and then complain about how another nation has done bad things. Or you would simply ignore those bad actions and provide a list of more good things.
At best it’s an incredibly simplistic and inaccurate way to view the world, at worst it’s intellectually dishonest.
