Post-Modernism in Practice

Post-Modernists on Basic Reason:

David Detmer on Confronting Post-Modernists said: “When I had occasion to ask her whether or not it was a fact that giraffes are taller than ants, she replied that it was not a fact, but rather an article of religious faith in our culture.” Click to expand...

Post-Modernists on Science:

Alan Sokal and Jean Bricmont said: “Who could now seriously deny the ‘grand narrative’ of evolution, except someone in the grip of a far less plausible master narrative such as Creationism? And who would wish to deny the truth of basic physics? The answer was, ‘some postmodernists.’”



“There is something very odd indeed in the belief that in looking, say, for causal laws or a unified theory, or in asking whether atoms really do obey the laws of quantum mechanics, the activities of scientists are somehow inherently ‘bourgeois’ or ‘Eurocentric’ or ‘masculinist’, or even ‘militarist.'” Click to expand...

Protesters on a Speaker said: “Science has always been used to legitimize racism, sexism, classism, transphobia, ableism, and homophobia, all veiled as rational and fact, and supported by the government and state. In this world today, there is little that is true ‘fact.'” Click to expand...

Post-Modernists at College

Doctoral Student at Purdue said: I have seen, with my own two eyes, a 19-year-old white woman—smart, well-meaning, passionate—literally run crying from a classroom because she was so ruthlessly brow-beaten for using the word “disabled.” Not repeatedly. Not with malice. Not because of privilege. She used the word once and was excoriated for it. She never came back. I watched that happen.



I have seen, with my own two eyes, a 20-year-old black man, a track athlete who tried to fit organizing meetings around classes and his ridiculous practice schedule (for which he received a scholarship worth a quarter of tuition), be told not to return to those meetings because he said he thought there were such a thing as innate gender differences. He wasn’t a homophobe, or transphobic, or a misogynist. It turns out that 20-year-olds from rural South Carolina aren’t born with an innate understanding of the intersectionality playbook. But those were the terms deployed against him, those and worse. So that was it; he was gone.



I have seen, with my own two eyes, a 33-year-old Hispanic man, an Iraq war veteran who had served three tours and had become an outspoken critic of our presence there, be lectured about patriarchy by an affluent 22-year-old white liberal arts college student, because he had said that other vets have to “man up” and speak out about the war. Because apparently we have to pretend that we don’t know how metaphorical language works or else we’re bad people. I watched his eyes glaze over as this woman with $300 shoes berated him. I saw that. Myself. Click to expand...

Conclusions and the Ultimate Joke of Post-Modernism



Hopefully by the end of this you have a better idea of just what post-modernism is, and where it came from. It allows you to say what you want with no evidence and no need of research. It permits you to be a hypocrite. It is a baseless, empty ideology. But it is an ideology that has taken over academia, threatens science and art. And if the west holds to it, it will die. Because contrary to Post-Modernists, there is an objective reality. And it is not kind. Its not all doom and gloom though!



At post-modernism's heart, at its core, is an ironic joke. The whole philosophy is hypocritical. Jean-François Lyotard went to Sorbonne University, which was at the time an extremely prestigious university in France. Jacques Derrida taught at that prestigious university. Michel Foucault was born into an upper-middle class family.



And thus, we have it: the ideology opposed to Western, Middle-Class Men was developed by Western, Middle-Class Men. That about sums up everything about this philosophy.

So, you might have heard the term Post-Modernism thrown about on the forums. Mostly in threads about Social Justice or Intersectionality or all those fun time concepts. You may have also heard of the alt-right conspiracy of ‘Social Marxism’ as the origins to this era of political correctness. Both are one in the same. Except there’s no such thing as a cultural Marxist conspiracy, it’s a load of horse shit (I’ll also explain why this is a load of shit). It is all about Post-Modernism. This philosophy is core to everything going on, from transgender bathrooms, to free-speech, to gender studies, to fat studies, to the Science March, to Bill Nye, to videogames and pop-culture. Recently a great article was written about it here: https://areomagazine.com/2017/03/27...-west-postmodernism-and-its-impact-explained/ I’m going to attempt to condense it and make it less academic as right now it reads like a paper. As an aside, this thread is going to be long, so feel free to skip over it. But otherwise, come with me on a journey of incredible faggotry and learn just what this shit is and how it came to pass. If this proves popular, I might do other posts on the Social Sciences and concepts in it, like Tabula Rasa.We can’t really understand something if we don’t understand the definition. Hunting down this definition involves a lot of philosophy and understanding of philosophical movements. But in general, it’s the rejection and deconstruction of the modern European ideas of the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries: Philosophy, Ethics, Reason, Scientific Revolution, Ideas of the Enlightenment. They continue to reject ideas that the modernists did (Ideas of Empire, the Power of the Church, etc) but now focus on destroying modernist ideas as well.And it rejects those ideas because those ideas are its main challenge, particularly the rigid structures of philosophy. In truth, Post-Modernists always existed. Socrates knew them as the Sophists: Empty people who promoted fallacious arguments for money, prestige and status.Everything going on seems new, but it has its roots in 1960s France. Its roots lie with Nietzsche and Heidegger. This is because post-modernism basically rejects realism. In a nutshell, post-modernists believe that you cannot have any structure to reality and you can NEVER determine anything objectively one way or the other. It’s the Calvinball of philosophy; allowing you to make up your own rules regardless of the reality around you. Forever moving the goalposts.It rejects the core concepts of the enlightenment and modernist artistic movements. It also threw out philosophy completely that valued any sort of ethics, rational structure, reason and clarity. Anything with any sort of coherent structure came under attack. This includes Marxism. They said that Marxism was too simplistic and rigid.But the true enemy of the post-modernist isn’t art or philosophy or economic theory. It is science. This is because science definitively establishes an objective reality that all humans follow and live in, independent of a person’s individual perspective. Because it doesn’t matter what a person believes, they are under the same rules of nature as everyone else. They considered it a constructed ideology. Don’t believe progressives when they say they love science. They wish to pollute it with this filth like the humanities. And why did they reject over 2,000 years of human thought, philosophy, progress and art?It’s a refrain you may have heard before: because they are Western, Middle-Class and MaleI’m going to condense these philosophers into something manageable so this isn’t 500 pages. I’m not going to do them justice, but fuck it, they don’t deserve it.believed that scientists in the 1960s were demoralized and had doubt about the work they were doing, therefore was evidence that science’s objective nature could be called into question. This dumb cunt had no idea what he was talking about. He is the one that started the anecdotal evidence is ‘real’ and personal belief in culture trumps any sort of objective reality. Therefore you can say scientists doubted the scientific method and have it hold true. Or how you can claim to be Anti-Fascist and throw Molotovs at cops.rejected that words refer to anything simple or straightforward. If you write something with a certain meaning, you can kiss that shit goodbye because anyone reading it has an equally valid meaning. Everyone is an authority. The intent doesn’t matter, only its impact. From here we get ‘words as violence’.is where we get our Anitas and culture critics from. He believed that we are all culturally constructed. Which is what it sounds like: culture influences us completely, we have no individual will. Culture replaces God. It’s the tabula rasa or blank slate idea that permeates the humanities to this day.Reminder: This is ALL philosophy. This is not based on research, psychology or basic human nature. This is all supposition that rejects reality.So now we come to today. This ideology has basically infected all of social science. I’m going to post a couple of examples of modern post-modernist garbage:And our old favorite,
