I'll listen to the book or read it as I would like to understand the underpinnings of it.
Hence why the best tactic against postmodernists is simply to ridicule them.
Right I get that part. I mean you neednt look further than twitter
Which is a pretty great distillation of the majority of leftists
Sorry I mean the majority of <:NPC:500042527231967262> 's
If you've listened to any of JBP's lecture series you'll find some familiar parts. JBP and Stephen Hicks are pals, though JBP doesn't do the material justice as he's not a professional philosopher.
Postmodernism is incredible, really
It's so flexible that it's bulletproof
I had a philosophy teacher in college (101 I wasnt going to school for it after all) and we touched on the concept of post-modernism. He said it's completely ridiculous as it's inherently flawed.
Oh yeah. Sargon did a video review of Explaining Postmodernism and he was really blown away once he understood how it works.
marxist subversion seems to be effective indeed.
I would like to get a video from @Timcast describing why he thinks the right seems to have such higher engagement with sources of news. Does this tell you anything about the "right"?
Sup you flannel faggot

So I'm listening to the link @Atkins but something strikes me already. Please let me know if you agree. It seems that when Jacque Derrida (dunno if spelled right) declares that post modernism is only useful in the context of revolutionary Marxism, that this in an of itself and by it's very necessity, inherently violates the entire concept of post modernism. Is this not a legitimate observation?
The exact quote is "Deconstruction never had meaning or interest, at least in my eyes, than as a radicalization, that is to say, also within the tradition of a certain Marxism, in a certain spirit of Marxism."
Is that new?
what ?
So he's talking about deconstruction, which is a literary tool of postmodernism, not postmodernism itself.
I love this video https://twitter.com/freedom_moates/status/1050820834414288898?s=19
I think more important that Derrida is how Hicks ties Immanuel Kant to postmodernism.
Kant was the one who set up the decoupling of reason from reality - for completely unrelated reasons - and that allowed all that followed.
I'm sure I'll find out
I'm not sure how one takes serious the idea of "decoupling reason from reality"
Ok. Post-modernism is already a billion times gayer than I thought. It's incredibly dick focused.
