Greatness is not about humiliating others.
It is about making your leadership
so useful that others choose it freely.
#Leadership #SoftPower #USA
America does not need to dominate the world.
It needs to be indispensable to it.
That is how it became great.
That is how it can be great again.
#Leadership #SoftPower #USA
The United States became great
by building alliances, not humiliating them.
By stabilizing the world, not destabilizing it.
By making prosperity possible for others — and itself.
#Alliances #SoftPower #USA
Greatness is not about humiliating others.
It is about making leadership indispensable.
2026 America is making leadership optional.
#Leadership #SoftPower #USA
America used to shape the rules of the world.
Now it is leaving the table and wondering why it’s losing influence.
You don’t win by walking away.
#Multilateralism #SoftPower #USA
Greatness isn’t about humiliation of others.
It’s about making your leadership indispensable.
2025–26 U.S. policy is making leadership optional.
#Leadership #SoftPower #Geopolitics #USA
Withdrawing from international institutions doesn’t remove problems.
It just removes U.S. influence over the rules that govern them.
You don’t win by leaving the table.

O nada secreto ‘soft power’ do cinema brasileiro: Filme de Kleber Mendonça já entraria para a história mesmo sem prêmios, escreve diretora da Mostra Internacional de Cinema de São Paulo https://pipelinevalor.globo.com/day-off/noticia/o-nada-secreto-soft-power-do-cinema-brasileiro.ghtml #CinemaBrasileiro #SoftPower

Global soft power in the news.

'Perry watched on as Trudeau, who served as the 23rd prime minister of Canada from 2015 to 2025 before his resignation, spoke at the Global Soft Power Summit. Trudeau even made reference to Perry, stating that he had “a date with an American girl to a rooftop bar in Montréal” where “she ordered a Jack and Coke.”

'“The server kindly informed her that there was no more American alcohol, not just in that bar but anywhere in Montréal and probably anywhere across the entire country,” he continued, explaining that this was an example of “Canadians standing up for each other, that’s an example of soft power, being motivated to be there for each other at a time of stress, at a time of anxiety.” Perry, from the crowd, gave him a wink.'
