I think people like yourself are still a minority. Although a lot of Said's work is now dated.
We still have a US president describing the States as the 'Moral leader of the World'.
Islamic prejudice is fervent, too.

"Said concludes that Western writings about the Orient depict it as an irrational, weak, feminised "Other", contrasted with the rational, strong, masculine West"
You know, I don't think that's the case now, but things have changed, ie, plebs such as I are now more educated than ever.
