"The West" is essentially the group of nations attempting to abide by a moral code. It is not always, or maybe even often, successful, but there is a vast gulf between their morality-based approach and what China, Russia, DPRK, and other fascist/semi-fascist nations are doing.

Nah the west pulls plenty of shady, awful crap but that's just a reason for the west (and everybody else) to try to be better - it shouldn't be used as an excuse for other countries doing evil shit.
