- Abstract
Techno-Orientalism involves the strategic use of various means to evoke emotions such as anxiety, shame, and indignation in order to gain supporters. It also aims to convey the eventual victory and superiority of the West over the developing East, thereby empowering supporters with confidence and pride. The narrative formula entails the recognition of the superiority of East Asia. However, in order to prevent being at a disadvantage, they employ discriminating legislation, attitudes, and narrative speeches to belittle countries in East Asia.
