Newton's third law.

Dumb snobby twaddle for the upper class leftists to sniff and rub between their fingers.

A cynical and indulgent lapse of intellectual integrity and honesty, a giving up and throwing up of your hands intellectually.

Snide garble and word salad cooked up by overstuffed borgeois professors and their nests of dronelike students and bottom feeders.

Utter bullshit sprinked with just the lightest hint of nonsensical linguistic mastrubation.

An utter waste of time.

I can't believe postmodernism is still discussed. It is the most notorious sophism of all time.

Late capitalism and reactions to it

A flimsy "movement" used only as a sort of rationalizing shield for talentless people who still think that they are able to express things.

Who started it and who is benefiting from it is anyone's guess.

Do you even know what Late Capitalism is? This isn't an evil socialist concept, it is economic.

Good grasp on the English language faggot, they didn't teach you that a word can mean two things yet?

>>8170434
one time i went into an econ 101 class just to see what it was like and i shit you not, the professor had written on the board "CAPITALISM = GOOD" and kept ending his points with "if you don't like capitalism, you don't know how economics works" and there wasn't a peep out of the class. they were just staring

A cultural period which roughly stretches from the 1950s to now. Its meaning and period differs based on which cultural field it is describing, be that economics, politics, art, etcccccccccc

You tried to sound smart. To your credit, you are mostly correct, it's about metanarrative fatigue - but the pendulum didn't swing back, it just remained motionless.

You're on your lucky day OP because post-modernism appeals to you and you exclusively: a new breed of mediocre autists that can't be bothered to actually study anything other than what makes them comfortable and thus are unable to have any solid grasp on culture, but are ever so desperate to carve a position for themselves in history.

A bunch of left North American faggots that might as well call themselves Narcissus.

If you think post-modernism is anything other than utter trash, I'd recommend taking a step outside your bubble and actually trying to show some respect for the more genuine intellectuals that worked hard while you were smelling your own farts. South America's cultural production is far more rich and valuable than whatever came out of your post-modern musings, but you'll never know this.

Pro-tip: when you're a colony, you don't get to be historically unconscious.

The removal of every social, ethnic, religious and cultural boundary set in place.

basically people painting over the past and starting new because they think it's holding them back.

You see many of these people practising polygamy and drugs when they say they are part of the "post-modern" crowd. It works well in Music, and it creates degeneracy and self destruction when practised on people.

My own interpretation is that it's a shitty version of what Wittgenstein was thinking/doing, specifically for butthurt Hegelians and Nietzscheans who are mad that they didn't think of it first.
