Western language as a world language.

 The Western world is blind to worlds beyond itself. Even when it acknowledges them, it devours. It interprets, translates, and thereby assimilates. It commodifies spiritual practices, artistic forms, and philosophies—branding them as “exotic,” “alternative,” or “inspiring” to package and sell. Yoga becomes “fitness.” African folk songs become “beats.” Buddhism becomes “achieving one’s potential.” Its youth treat other cultures as if they were animals in a zoo, objectified for spectacle. Through this objectification, the West asserts dominance: it names, and in naming, it claims. All forms of language and communication are treated as its invention. They exist solely to serve it, filtered through its lens alone. Slang terms and texting abbreviations are presented as if they were a natural part of language, and thus, the naive person who intends to learn them is unconsciously absorbed into a covert ideology and a broader culture. When someone types something seemingly innocent like “LOL,” they unknowingly adopt the culture and ideology that created and normalized it. Being “anti” or “pro” anything is a mass delirium, but it is served as a trend and fashion. The West sells even “resistance” as a product. Hence, even “anti-Western” personalities and societies think in terms of, and communicate through, the pop and internet culture born from Western social media applications, which are designed not to “connect” but to homogenize. After all, whoever seizes language seizes the world.
