A single-sided focus on the negative aspects of western society and its actions combined with a Rousseau-inspired 'noble savage' attitude towards non-western societies is hating the west and is most likely what the grandparent poster refers to. All the vices attributable to western society - slavery, colonialism, brutality, sexism and all the other -isms - can also be attributed to other societies but these go mostly unmentioned or are mentioned in passing without leaving a mark while they are portrayed as being essential elements of western cultures.

Fictional accounts of the oppression of women in the western world are so unimaginative and uninteresting that it does not even come close to capturing the real horror of the oppression of women in the non-western world.
