Post-Western Rationality

The recognition that the Western model of rationality—with its emphasis on universal logic, formal proof, and objective truth—is not the only model, and that alternative rationalities exist and are valid. Post-Western Rationality doesn't reject reason; it pluralizes it. It argues that different cultures, different traditions, different contexts have developed different ways of reasoning, different standards of validity, different conceptions of truth. These are not failed attempts at Western rationality; they are different rationalities altogether. Post-Western Rationality is the philosophy of cognitive diversity, of the recognition that reason is not one thing but many.

Example: "He'd been taught that Western logic was just logic—the only way to reason properly. Post-Western Rationality showed him otherwise: other cultures had other logics, other ways of knowing, other standards of validity. These weren't primitive; they were different. He stopped judging other rationalities by Western standards and started learning to think in new ways."

Pro-Western Campism

The explicit alignment with Western imperial powers, colonial projects, and geopolitical interests by individuals or groups who may otherwise identify with anti-imperial or anti-colonial traditions. Pro-Western Campism is the positive formulation of Reverse Campism—the active choice to camp with the West, to defend its institutions, to justify its interventions, and to adopt its framing of global conflicts. This alignment may be rationalized through exceptionalist arguments (the West is different), through appeals to lesser-evilism (the alternatives are worse), through adoption of Western liberal values as universal standards, or through simple capture by Western institutions and funding. Pro-Western Campism describes the intellectual and political position of those who, whatever their origins or rhetoric, consistently find themselves on the side of Western power in global conflicts.

Example: "His editorials always ended up justifying Western intervention, no matter the context—not because he'd thought each case through, but because Pro-Western Campism was his default position, the lens through which he viewed all geopolitics."

kangaroo western

A western, but more Australian!

Distant cousins are the Maple Leaf western (Canadian), spaghetti western (Italian), baguette western (French), and the samurai movie (Japanese).

How to make a Kangaroo western:
They're all Aussie
There are probably Aboriginal people
Maybe add some surfers just for a joke
They say "mate" and "cunt"

They say "g'day mate" instead of "howdy partner"
Play Waltzing Matilda or something
BOOM! Aussie western is now a thing!

Riding Western

When giving a handjob and you turn your fist to face the other direction.

He didn't like the way I was cranking his hog because he said I was too fancy. So, I switched it around and had him riding western.

all qwyatt on the western front

How da O.K. Corral was after Mr. Earp and his law-enforcement associates engaged in their famous shootout and subdued or eliminated all of da noisily-gun-blasting outlaws.

If da outlaw gang "Cowboys" had simply followed da "no guns within city limits" ordinance and thus not run afoul of da local marshals, things might have remained "all qwyatt on the western front" for everyone involved.
