The US overthrew democracy in the country I am from
The US installed a fascist king with secret police that terrorized my family
Once kicked out the US supported a dictator in the neighboring country where the other half of my family lived
The US funded both sides of a war between my country and the neighboring one that led to mass civilian deaths, one side directly by giving a dictator weapons and cash and the other side clandestinely thru laundering money by selling drugs in Latin America
Once they lost that war turned on the dictator in the neighboring country and invented reasons to illegally invade. Twice
Toppled the regime and left a power vacuum that consumed all my family that lived there for literally hundreds of years.
Created material conditions in the country my family is from that forced them to leave or die

You Americans are not the good guys, your country and government is evil to its core.

I would try to guess your country but there are too many that the US has done this to

Point 1 definitely has some 50+ countries in it, but point 2 almost immediately leads to Iran, who suffered a coup in the 1950s because the then president wanted to nationalize the oil reserves.

Point 3 is the rise of Saddam. Point 4 is the Iran-Iraq war of the 1980s and the Iran-Contra kerfuffle. Point 5 is the two invasions of Iraq by the USA, 1991 and 2003, the latter leading directly to point 6.
