I don't think it's an academic or philosophical postmodernism. Maybe a cultural one? If anything I doubt Soren Kiekegaard or Fouccault has much to do with it.

Hmm. I'm just about to publish a piece on this showing the line from, say, Foucault through Butler, Said etc and into activism and mainstream social conscience.

Yeah I really don't think the common voters know anything about that, nor do I think that is essential to the trump win. That's all I'm saying.

You don't? I do. I think our confidence in objective knowledge and our expectation of reasoned argument has decreased considerably and that this has been enabled by the left's dropping of that particular ball & embrace of postmodern ideas.

I'm sorry but that is a really big stretch. I see that as you projecting your personal problem with the left to some grand importance. Try saying this. "Perhaps the right can be bad irregardless of the left"
