So often 'overstating the problem' means 'focusing on a problem I don't find the most important.' That's fine but I don't think we all need to focus on the same problems. Specialisation is good.

Yeah I agree that I don't think writing articles of pomo is addressing the most important issues in society, but you are free to focus on anything you like. Can you give me an example of an academic advocating for a position that you think is being overly influenced by pomo?

the rape law advocacy anti due process groups are suggesting we assume all accusations are guilty is based on post modernist thought.

If I can try and decipher that grammatical nightmare, you think that feminist efforts to bring awareness to problems in laws surrounding rape are based in postmodernism?

We can certainly trace some problematic ideas within feminism back through recent feminist theory which draws on postmodern understandings of society & truth in terms of lived experience & structures of power & social constructivism which are relevant.
