I feel the need to nitpick an point out that marxism is highly modernist. Not everything bad is postmodernism.https://twitter.com/jordanbpeterson/status/957136769241071616 …
Vulgar pomoists mostly say they want to overthrow capitalism… that comes from Marx. Figuring out what they mean by “capitalism” and the emotional/moral intuitions that lead them to oppose it might help co-construct with them some more positive path forward.

Its just that it feeds common misunderstandings about what the postmodern condition is.
