Just been talking about postmodernism with a Frenchman & realising how wrongly I pronounce all their names. Still, I couldn't say 'Baudrillard' correctly without coughing up my larynx so I'm just going to live with it.

Most of his connecting PoMo with Marxism comes from Stephen Hicks’ argument in his book “Explaining Postmodernism.” Bourgeoisie Vs Proletariat broadened to Oppressor Vs Oppressed through power & language games after Marxism failed: logic & reason oppressive western constructs etc

Hicks has some nuance here and also includes a section on epistemology. I will be writing a piece soon called 'Why postmodernism is not simply cultural Marxism' coz I am sick of arguing about it.
