I urge everyone to read this: https://www.thenewatlantis.com/publications/wokeness-and-myth-on-campus … I have been trying to get at this drawing on @MatthewdAncona & the example of Jordan Peterson's popularity & the concept of metamodernism but Alan Jacobs' use of Kołakowski's technological & mythical cores really clarifies.
Is anyone recommending a gentle, understanding approach? I think understanding is good if we want to tackle things. And yes, that applies to all ideologies. Do you see me going easy on postmodernism-based ideologies?

Twitter just muted you for me! I certainly didn't but suddenly you disappeared and when I checked... Don't mistake my thinking that we need to promote rationality & objective truth and recognise the psychological need for narratives as neglecting the former. It matters what works

I agree understanding is necessary and the article was brilliant as a useful analysis. You are perhaps the most eloquent and effective critic of PoMo madness that I've encountered. I'm mostly playing devils advocate. BTW, speel check turns "PoMo" into Poo
