But this isn't a summary of postmodernism. That was my point. Critics of 'Postmodernism' are really criticising a few ideas which originate from it. Or do you think they're criticising something else? I know some like to conflate it with Marxism.
Sorry, but this really isn't very good. Admittedly, "postmodernism" is very difficult - perhaps impossible - to summarize, but there's a lot of conflation, misunderstanding, oversimplification, etc, here.https://twitter.com/HPluckrose/status/991684340659707905 …

Ah sorry, I misunderstood the intent of your list. I thought you included yourself as a critic of postmodernism, and under that label you were criticizing the things on the list.

Oh, I am. But I do not claim this to be a summary of postmodernism. Rather, it is a summary of beliefs current in social justice activism which come from identity-based critical theory which draw heavily and explicitly on postmodernism. The essay I linked goes into this.

What would be an adequate summary of post modernism?
