No you are getting it all wrong. Postmodernism is only reflective in a mundane sense, the critique of post-modern condition is negatively and positively dialectical.

You are getting it wrong. You are erasing concrete instantiation with question-begging abstraction.

First of all, there is no such a thing as a concrete instantiation just as there is no totality of history. We only have concretization and totalization in progress. What you are saying is the exact thing religious and foundationalist people have said.

I'd call myself postmodernist and defend it on the grounds that negative and positive dialectics are embedded within it, although only visible in long trajectories. It is (or has the quality of) the "yes" of French theory learning to say "no", and the opposite for German theory.

But that's not postmodernism as a micro-style. It is actually a fruit of determinate negation.
