but really

people are calling critical theory postmodernism

I don't trust logic in the first place.

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.

when really postmodernism is more questioning percetion itself

wrong things*

We're hard wired for sophistry and rhetoric.

which yes includes reason

It's good to question your assumptions and heuristics

but is not limited to it

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

But any good dialectic should question your assumptions and heuristics

i can prove anything with it

because i can disqualify reality itself with it

Your methods are esoteric.

it's all slight of hand nonsense

Is dealing with those questions practical?

well, it can be, yes

yes but there is a value to questioning reality

in teh sense that you then can define its boundaries

I think it is mostly intellectual masturbation.

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

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

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

which for any given person needs to be at least practiced

So for individual purposes, it is helpful.

They won't cv

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

That's the thing

HAHAHAH

lol

well my friend

Not everyone has an inner life lol

if thats what you think

i feel sorry for ya

or i should say what you beleive

only inthe sense

well julz make an argument for the sanctity of life without the concept of divinity

that you can embody value in your own life

without god

Me?
