The US only has this power because everyone relies on the USA to do everything. Stop relying on the US and we can stop caring about how the US treats the rest of the world.

Being gay is illegal in some parts of the world but my gay friends don't care because they don't do business with those countries, don't participate in any commerce that does business in those countries, etc. Your country will cease being bound by US law when you cease to rely on the US for whatever.

It's easier said than done. It would be good if USA would stop to push that reliance using its military power, economic power, media and soft power, open and covert intelligence operations with the only purpose to extend its power and influence around the world.

If USA starts treating other countries in a biblical "don't do to others what you don't like to be done to you" sense, the world would be a much better and safer place for everyone.
