West against the East

The west views the east as a fascinating realm of the exotic, the mystical, and the seductive, the other, inferior, cruel, and lazy. Homogeneously means the same. The west views the people of the east as similar and consider them a group or one big mass. Their actions are caused by their instincts and their emotions. Their actions are determined by racial considerations. The west consider themselves above the east, the east is inferior. Having a common enemy benefit a group of people because it will make the group of people try harder so they will be better than their enemy. Yes, the wests view of the east still exists. For example, Africa (the east) is viewed as strange but exotic at the same time by us (the west).
