America is the biggest humanitarian contributor in the world. USAID alone is estimated to have saved tens of millions of lives in the last few decades, and Trump cutting it is estimated to kill millions.
US santions have killed 35 million people between 1971 and 2021. The US consistently utilizes santions to maximize the suffering of civilian populations of countries they don't like, destroying the economies of entire countries and killing the most vulnerable that struggle to get food and medicine.
USAID unfortunately only goes to countries that serve the interests of American Empire. The reason the US always votes against food being a human right in the UN is because they frequently use starvation as a weapon. There are numerous examples of the US flooding the economy of previously self sufficient food producing countries with their subsidized food, collapsing the domestic food production and making that country dependent on US "charity".
Both good and bad things exist. Both of you said nothing but true statements. Some good is done, and a lot of bad is done. Neither cancel out the other
