I was educated in public schools and this experience taught me from a young age to hate the general population because everyone at the public school, both teachers and fellow students, hated me and worked to make my life miserable. After the negative experiences at public schools at some point I couldn't even bear to watch TV or movies any more, because I could tell they were written by and for members of the general population, which I did not identify with and in fact hated.
My younger cousins were not educated in public schools and were homeschooled. You would think this would make them less westernized, but I did not get this feeling when interacting with them. I think even though they are homeschooled, they still absorb the values of modern Western culture via TV (or other forms of media such as Netflix, and the internet). They watch their modern Western media and it makes them feel like they are a part of modern Western culture, and that if they were put into contact with members of modern Western culture they would be accepted by them.
I have noticed that as my cousins get older, they seem to get more distant from me, because the values they absorb from the media make them look down on people like me. Unfortunately I don't know of anything short of experiencing modern culture first-hand and being wronged by it that would make one hate it like they should. Maybe at some point they will try dating girls and when they get rejected this will ignite a hatred of the west in them. But on the other hand maybe they can become westernized enough by the media that dating will be no problem for them. This last time I saw one of my teenaged cousins, he was speaking with some thuggish rhythm, even though he has always been smart. No doubt he picked this up from the media. So maybe by speaking in this thuggish way he will be able to convince women that he is a stupid scum, live happily ever after with some scum girlfriend, and never even realize that modern Western culture is evil.
