      Boomers can never seem to grasp that ambiguity isn't liberation. The world is complex and being able to parse that complexity is a virtue, but truth and goodness are often quite simple, and denying such to fetishize a "diversity of opinion" is not liberating, it's laziness.pic.twitter.com/EeTGT38sWH

      This is a weird reverse "everything has devolved into postmodernism" argument.

      I'm glad you see it too. This is the thing about the Bret Stephens and Glenn Greenwalds -- they're reactionaries bemoaning the collapse of postmodernism because it enabled them to flourish and they fear the reemergence of Truth with teeth.

      Postmodernism has never made much sense to me except as a grift or self-demonstrating principle. It associates wholly understandable human fallacy with cutting edge epistemic limitations that are generally relevant in an academic context (which are held up as sources of mystery).

      There's no reason to bring up the Duhem-Quine thesis or Godelian incompleteness or whatever when you're discussing something like Qanon or any other cult, or politics in general. The complaint is always about something reconcilable like "people don't read source texts", not math

      I guess there is an extent to which postmodernism has gotten jumbled with new ageism though and that's constituted most of my exposure tbh

          I worked with a post modernist on a paper once, and gained an appreciation for it. It's like pickled ginger when eating sushi, not intended to be a full course meal.

          Skepticism of metanarratives is best as a strategy in the toolbox, not a life orientation or philosophy.
