      Helen Pluckrose Retweeted Seth Abramson

      *I* wish it had never happened at all. It was an overreaction which did way more harm than good and got in the way of progressive aims which were going rather well. The right has its own varieties of irrational woo. The left embracing postmodern woo made it harder to counter.https://twitter.com/SethAbramson/status/997986812705562630 …

      Helen Pluckrose added,

      Seth AbramsonVerified account @SethAbramson
      12/ Beyond that, the Right's critique of postmodernism falls apart because the Right (especially the alt-Right) *isn't* hostile to postmodernism because they seek an *evolution* from postmodernism—but because they wish and have always wished postmodernism *never happened at all*.

      He makes that same point later! He might be more intersectionally indoctrinated than you, me & @GodDoesnt but at least Seth admits that fighting the alt right with postmodernism alone actually has the counterintuitive effect of creating more alt right fans. You must agree, no?

      I probably agree with him on many things. I am currently disagreeing with him about this conception of metamodernism.

          Gotcha. Metamodernism IS his main thing when not tweeting about Trump. (Which is why I follow Seth.)

          I think it is fairly harmless. It is playful and unlikely to catch on because it is not user-friendly. However, it offends my orderly brain.
