The Trump administration is very upset about #Iran blocking the strait and how that impacts economies, while it does much worse to the economy of #Cuba. And the media barely mentions it. Or the sanctions we put on nations that don't bow to our demands constantly.
US policy is fucked by the influence of our selfish capitalist ideology on the voting public, but the lack of understanding based on how we're shown the world outside our borders, and how we affect it, is a much bigger problem.
No, these US policies are often wildly unpopular. It's not selfish capitalist ideology on the voting public but a voting public that doesn't have the information they need to make a difference.
So many in the voting public vote over and over for candidates that vote the opposite of the way they want, but the voters don't even know.
With that disconnect you can't draw a direct line between ideology and the outcome of votes.
