    Nah, it totally is. Being western isn’t signified by “Good Values” it’s signified by its location on the map.

      That’s why I put western in quotes. It’s a dumb but helpful classification like the „first world”.

      Plenty of western countries are located in the eastern hemisphere. Australia is considered a western country…

        Yeah they often get coined with that term because they have “Western Values” or come under the influence of western countries.
