Am I Unfair to Postmodernism?
Jordan Peterson:
He simply doesn't understand postmodernism and appeals to others who don't
>He simply doesn't understand postmodernism
literally every pomo ever
your ideology either means something identifiable and articulable or its an amalgam of meaningless, sophistic interpretations ad infinitum
>pro tip: it's the latter
Or it's just some dudes who you don't understand how to read and then bitch about later on Veeky Forums.
Ten bucks say it is.
Postmodernism has to go.
why is the one thing you won't check the wikipedia on postmodernism? seriously, that's the level of research kermit needed to do to not be memeing, and he didn't. enjoy your fantasyland with him where dictionaries and encyclopedias don't exist to hurt you.
>"no one understands pomo"
>ok wise user enlighten us
>"HAHAHA SEE user I TOLD U"
what I find even more humorous is when I point out that pomo's can't EVER seem to establish an agreed upon definition of their ideology and someone comes in the thread trying to define it and immediately gets replies about how their interpretation is wrong
I know Sokal is a tired meme by now but there's a reason no one takes you lot seriously with exception to scholars for whom jerking each other about about how the west can be deconstructed through the metaphorical penis in obscure journals no one reads
>I don't understand postmodernism but I know I don't like it because the people who are considered postmodern say things and act in ways I don't like.
>Therefore, postmodernism is a Jewish Marxist conspiracy to destroy white people and turn Western culture into a Sodomite, barbarian safe space.
Equating postmodernism to its interpretation by Tumblr fatties is like reducing Conservative thought to the alt-right. They're both popular sub-culture that loosely draw from the underlying philosophy
PoMo isn't as much about the "deconstruction" of the West, but about the state of the Western culture
>Therefore, postmodernism is a Jewish Marxist conspiracy to destroy white people and turn Western culture into a Sodomite, barbarian safe space.
never even implied that lmao what's it like being an enlightened freshman film student who has every nuance of "of grammatology" figured out?
>STILL HASN'T DEFINED IT
HAHAHAHAHAHA
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>guise this is a totally legitimate ideology trust me, it's just too complex 4 u 2 understand
>brb 'bout to submit this article about why jerking off in a kiddie pool is actually oppression stemming from children to peer review
