What do you mean? They're not. Much of the world has never embraced it. They just include universalism.

I disagree!!! Anti-colonialists were driven by Enlightenment ideals! Kenan writes about that all the time!
-
Yes but they're not universal either!
-
Elightenment philosophers consider their ideals to be universal

They apply them universally. They don't believe everyone holds them

of course! but they believe they anyone can hold them because all humans are endowed with reason

Well, yes. How does anything I've said seem to deny that? I'm looking at postmodernists & their views & influences.
