Since the US has the habit in trying to export its views all over the world
through economic pressure, it is not(*). And besides: since when are opinions
irrelevant because of people's origins, age, sex, or whatever? This statement

method, something normally found in extremist views.

(*) For instance Bulgary was pressured by the US to change its laws on
software copyrights and patents that way.
