The point of an analogy is to be analogous, otherwise its not an analogy
Laws and norms matter as long as people are willing to enforce them, otherwise its meaningless.
Lol I don't know why you guys think you can just make up your own definitions of words as if other people don't understand these words.
The point of an analogy is to explain something in a way to make it easier to understand, or to highlight a specific idea or point.
For something to be analogous, that does not mean it has to be a perfect carbon copy of the thing you are attempting to analogize.
Cheering on police for illegally taking out criminals is a perfectly apt analogy to the people cheering on Trump/MAGA for taking out Maduro. The point of my analogy isn't the police--it's to highlight the limited and hypocritical thought process of people that will cheer on the illegal actions of a "good" guy if it means taking out a bad guy...meaning, they don't actually care about law.
"Enforcement" of law towards nations is not going to look like enforcement of law towards individuals. There isn't a jail or a cop. It's not usually going to be immediate either. THat doesn't mean it doesn't exist, and it sure as shit isnt usally "meaningless".
The United States uses international laws and norms all of the damn time to enforce, control, and cajole nations into doing what they want. That's treaties, that's international organizations, that's diplomatic, political, and economic pressure directly and indirectly applied through allies.
The whole point here is the hypocrisy that the laws and norms only matter when you feel like they matter.
