Can someone show me on a map where "the west" starts?

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Anything NA and anything west of (including) Germany.
I dunno if I would consider CZ to the west.

Poland is definitely The West too, honestly more than Mexico. It's basically a code for white nations and the vassal states of white nations.

Feels more Slavic than anything Germany (except east germany), France, Austria etc.

But that could be just my personal observation.

In some cultural or ethnic sense, you're probably right (though there's the classic joke in Europe that the East starts one country to the east of theirs) but what I mean is that Poland operates as part of what you could call the North Atlanticist bloc.
