> * No one accepts high western "morality" anymore

Is that an accurate trend on an individual basis?

Travel to Middle East, some parts of Africa and China, ask what people think. Most say have similar opinion that west is not "morally" superior.

South America as well, in particular with regard to the US. Too many coups and sponsorship of military dictatorships will do that.

Travel to anywhere, anywhere at all, ask people if they consider themselves morally superior ...

I think when people say "West", they automatically think US and UK - and given their war crimes in recent history, you do get this sentiment, yes. I suspect, however, that this view has exacerbated and now includes other "western" countries that are silent/complicit in current horrific war crimes.
