No it's not. On the contrary, in many parts of the non-Western world the concept of left and right is far stronger, to the extent that people from the two sides have their own semi-separate cultures and almost never talk to each other.
Communism has been more popular in the non-Western world than in the Western world since at least the 1960s-70s. And today, the socialist movement (broadly defined) is doing much better in the non-Western world than in the Western world. I am talking especially about Latin America, and to a lesser extent South Asia.
