No, because it doesn’t profit off of imperialism.

When discussing this question, I think one should keep in the forefront that the “West”/“Western” labels are very, often—I’d say most often—used as a tool of oppression, including by people who aren’t aware of their own racism (maybe racism isn’t the most precise word here, but it’s the best I can think of). In most cases, I think these conversations are a mug’s game, because how do you know the amount of explicit or implicit racism the other converser’s hold?

Edit to add: It’s like Whiteness in that it’s continually being redefined to suit power dynamics.

Global South, actually.

It’s in the western hemisphere yes but when people refer to “the west” they are usually referring to America, Canada, and Europe. South and Central America are more often lumped in with the global south

As much as the elites here want it to be “the west”, Latin America still is part of the global south.
