AYRT

Sorry, that was a sarcastic reductio ad absurdum kind of reply to herpy's argument

Italy and Germany are clearly part of the West, not the Mideast

NA

But your sarcastic reductio ad absurdum doesn't make any sense? You seem to mock the idea that the England was the set point to which terms like Middle East related.

But Italy and especially Germany would never have been considered any sort of East from England's POV?

Like, I really don't understand the point you where trying to make. I'm confused.

That's because anon has no idea how to actually make a reductio ad absurdum argument

italy and germany are to the east of england

DA

They're part of "west" which england is also part of.

England doesn't call itself "center." You'd have an argument if it did, but it doesn't.

What Herpy said was:

[We] refer to [places] as East or West based on their relation to a set point (that point historically being England).

That's what I'm arguing against.

Yeah. Only we set that point as West, not Center. So things that are slightly to the east of West can still count as West without being Eastern Europe or the Middle East. Then things very far from the West are the "far East"

England is set as the extreme West in regard to Europe, not the center. It's still set.
