For example a Polish researcher of types of civilizations, Feliks Koneczny, wrote (in his book titled "Judaized Hitlerism") that the Third Reich was not an example of a Western type of civilization, but an example of a Jewish type of civilization implemented by Non-Jews (Germans in this case). Of course this may sound offensive to both Jews and Germans, but that's what he claimed.
Koneczny also considered Prussia (and the 1871-1918 Second Reich) as non-Western, but he considered it as an example of Byzantine style of civilization, rather than Jewish.
And Inter-War Poland under Joseph Piłsudski's semi-dictatorship was a Turanid type of civilization according to Koneczny, so he wasn't biased in a pro-Polish way either.
But he did consider the old Poland-Lithuania as Western.
