Echoing Z_Poster's response to your earlier comment, western chauvinism doesn't necessarily manifest as a belief that the imperial core countries are better than (semi)peripheral countries: it can also be the projection of how bad the (in this case) US is to all of its enemies, or believing false or wildly distorted narratives spread by the US about those countries.

Regarding the videos you saw, what platforms were you seeing them on? Are they being shared by others who have (usually unconscious) western chauvinist biases? These are things worth considering when looking at information about enemies of western civilization, especially considering how virtually all mainstream social media platforms are owned by US companies.
