The slippery slope goes: Feeling hurt by rejection & going away Feeling hurt by rejection & being abusive in response Refusing to accept rejection & forcing sexual advances on women - sexual assault. The difference between feelings, words & actions is lost. This must not happen.

So why call it an epistemology, when they'll use empiricism, which is an epistemology. You flatten out all the important differences.
-
I'm calling a specific epistemology which works on standpoint theory an epistemology. What do you think I'm calling an epistemology?
-
I am saying that we *shouldn't* keep saying 'postmodernism' when we mean a certain set of ideas based on an epistemology of situated knowledge. Because postmodernism is much broader than this. I have just argued this in my response to the defence of postmodernism.
-
Go back to the first tweet I responded to. Postmodernism isn't an epistemology. You ask a postmodernist, "How do you know that" and they say because I'm a postmodernist, then that's a statement of identity not an epistemology, and that should be pointed out.
-
That is also what my tweet is saying. That postmodernism is not an epistemology and therefore should not be used to describe one. Therefore there is no need to explain to me that postmodernism isn't an epistemology.
