TBF I'd rather have US military bases all across the world than Russian or Chinese military bases.

If those were the only two options, then I'd agree with you. But thankfully they're not the only two options.

What's the other option?

You really see no other options than the 3 you presented?

I'd rather have Russian or Chinese military bases all across the world than be ruled by giant killer robots from another dimension. Whether you legitimately believe the US is the lesser of evils or not - it's still evil as fuck.

I'd still take the evil I know, and the lesser evil at that.

That's because the evil you know isn't exploiting and killing you as bad as all the millions of others.
