This conversation is obviously a waste of time given people are trying to explain what the West actually constitutes and you're claiming that means those people are racist.

But yes, racism is very much essential to the concept of the West.

croatia is a majority catholic slavic country

You sort of hit the nail on the head there.

This was the portrayal of Germany in WW1, drawing on the 'asiatic hordes' imagery (dating back to and before when Europe was getting wrecked by Eurasian people):

Literally what the fuck are you talking about, you've gone on for a dozen posts fixated on autism dragon's use of "imperial core" as a shorthand to describe key Western countries

I don't see how this applies at all

I also don't see how decommodification would result in either a Juche system or degrowth (or Juche style degrowth as you put it)

I've read that in medieval England, Iceland was widely considered to be hell

After the eruption of 1104, stories, probably spread deliberately through Europe by Cistercian monks, told that Hekla was the gateway to Hell. The Cistercian monk Herbert of Clairvaux wrote in his De Miraculis (without naming Hekla):

The renowned fiery cauldron of Sicily, which men call Hell's chimney ... that cauldron is affirmed to be like a small furnace compared to this enormous inferno.
