> That's the thing about being put in front of the mirror: it hurts.

It doesn't, unless you're a gorgon or a vampire. No one is affected by this tactic. No one is hurt by it, shocked, or shamed, no one has the scales fall from their eyes at the revelation of the true nature of Western imperialism in the light of this simple reversal.

That doesn't make any sense. If "the west" is so evil, than it won't hurt it. Quite the opposite.

You don't even make sense within your own reality.
