Okay, just for the sake of easy communication, can we agree that left/right wing refers to the usual western definitions?
And if so, can we agree that western Europe is pretty left wing?
Yes, although the definition is not the issue but the false balance is
No, because that depends on perspective and Europe is also not a single country.
Your point is taken, but considering all of this your point becomes narrow, and that's why it's important to raise this context in this circumstance.
I'm not ignoring you, I just don't really think this is going anywhere.
Half of the world is China and India. Add in the rest of Asia, Africa, and South America, the world is pretty right wing. Hell, even basic stuff like gay marriage is illegal in most of the world.
