Western society has been committing cultural suicide over the past few years. Finally, courtesy of Grok; got around to seeing if there was a one word descriptor . Seems that this is a word that we could be using.
Oikophobe
**Oikophobe**An oikophobe is someone who harbors a fear or hatred toward their own home, society, or culture, as derived from the Greek term "oikophobia," contrasting with xenophobia (fear of foreigners). This word specifically captures the self-directed aversion to one's cultural identity, as noted in discussions of cultural self-hatred.
