Yep.
Postmodernism is cancer upon the West and intellectualism as a whole.
How so?
There are objective truths.
Past events show a clear line of cause and effect.
There are natural laws that must be obeyed.
It's the idea proposing objectivity and the concept of truth is a lie
It's so flexible that it's basically bulletproof
Postmodernists deny those facts and embrace a world of pure subjectivity.
For example "There are no natural sex differences, there are only docile bodies"
Objective facts include that the solar system is heliocentric, the Earth is round, murder is wrong, rape is wrong, cannibalism is wrong, eating dogs is wrong, etc.
No amount of cultural relativism or sociology will ever convince me that eating dogs is morally right or civilized.
You can’t change my mind on this.
wait until you are starving
I’d sooner eat my toes and ring fingers than eat my dog.
The amount of obsession both for and against Jordan Peterson is bizarre
I find the against more bizarre than the for
Lol. I was just about to say "He generally explains when he's giving an opinion vs facts. Whats so controversial about giving facts?"
I must have had a stroke
We exist in an era where basic search for meaning and self improvement is downplayed in favour of forming attachment to your flaws
Yeah right? I mean why on Earth would I have thought "it's not controversial". I live in a time where people are so narcissistic they pretend to be empathetic
By talking about "muh oppression" that they more than likely don't actually experience
I'm no intellectual though.
I'm just some normie
You can tell when people are actually empathetic because they will approach the issues of someone they don't agree with from an outside perspective, even if at the end of the day they don't agree with that process
There's a Saudi in the church for the bush service
Wow. Michelle and Barrak just shake hands with Trump?
Twitter is full of apathy
Oh probably
It’s a funeral.
There's still a level of decorum
Still though. I half expected it to be stupidly partisan even there
I'm just surprised the decorum is there still
That's nice at least
Death is different than politics
Also, I watched the video about Bush’s dog last night, and I’m confused by that one report that didn’t understand that dogs are capable of mourning.
I think Trump hates political decorum, but when it comes to personal issues he'll play by the rules
Cannot believe jimmy Carter is still alive
I have less bad things to say about Bush than I did McCain, so I’m more willing to let people mourn.
I think I wanna tour the national cathedral. It's only an hour away
