2018-09-20 05:43:03 UTC  

postmodernism is calling a man who grew up in afghanistan and have lived in sweden for 2 days swedish

2018-09-20 05:43:15 UTC  

XD no i mean true postmodernism

2018-09-20 05:43:30 UTC  

not this sort of relabeling retarded prgressivism as postmodernism

2018-09-20 05:43:33 UTC  

really, true post modernism is just an attack on logic itself

2018-09-20 05:43:33 UTC  

not without reason

2018-09-20 05:43:49 UTC  

but really

2018-09-20 05:44:01 UTC  

people are calling critical theory postmodernism

2018-09-20 05:44:09 UTC  

I don't trust logic in the first place.

2018-09-20 05:44:14 UTC  

it is useful because its deconstructive and can be used as a tool when you accidently construct the right things, its not useful when you can't determine what's good or bad.

2018-09-20 05:44:29 UTC  

when really postmodernism is more questioning percetion itself

2018-09-20 05:44:31 UTC  

wrong things*

2018-09-20 05:44:38 UTC  

We're hard wired for sophistry and rhetoric.

2018-09-20 05:44:38 UTC  

which yes includes reason

2018-09-20 05:44:50 UTC  

It's good to question your assumptions and heuristics

2018-09-20 05:44:51 UTC  

but is not limited to it

2018-09-20 05:44:59 UTC  

yeah but i can use postmodernist tactics to prove that racism is a good thing

2018-09-20 05:45:03 UTC  

But any good dialectic should question your assumptions and heuristics

2018-09-20 05:45:07 UTC  

i can prove anything with it

2018-09-20 05:45:17 UTC  

because i can disqualify reality itself with it

2018-09-20 05:45:25 UTC  

Your methods are esoteric.

2018-09-20 05:45:31 UTC  

it's all slight of hand nonsense

2018-09-20 05:45:49 UTC  

Is dealing with those questions practical?

2018-09-20 05:46:05 UTC  

well, it can be, yes

2018-09-20 05:46:17 UTC  

yes but there is a value to questioning reality

2018-09-20 05:46:26 UTC  

in teh sense that you then can define its boundaries

2018-09-20 05:46:26 UTC  

I think it is mostly intellectual masturbation.

2018-09-20 05:46:40 UTC  

well, in a certain sense, if we never questioned reality we couldn't have come up with the concept of god

2018-09-20 05:46:53 UTC  

and without the concept of divinity, you can't say that humans have intrinsic rights

2018-09-20 05:46:56 UTC  

You can't get most people on board with critical thinking.

2018-09-20 05:47:20 UTC  

which for any given person needs to be at least practiced

2018-09-20 05:47:21 UTC  

So for individual purposes, it is helpful.

2018-09-20 05:47:33 UTC  

They won't cv

2018-09-20 05:47:34 UTC  

and if all that matters is "reality" then there is no soul and life has no value in and of itself

2018-09-20 05:47:38 UTC  

That's the thing

2018-09-20 05:47:48 UTC  

HAHAHAH

2018-09-20 05:47:49 UTC  

lol

2018-09-20 05:47:57 UTC

2018-09-20 05:48:02 UTC  

Not everyone has an inner life lol

2018-09-20 05:48:05 UTC
