it was really cool when he mocked the movie for having a heavy-handed agenda, then turned around and devoted several minutes taking feminism down a peg

not defending emoji movie (lol), but surely he could have called out its poorly executed "girl power!!!" message without bring up everyone's favorite buzzword.

He wasn't exactly articulate about the girl power problem, but did point out that Fiona in Shrek (2001) handled it way better over a decade ago. I think there's a more general problem with "feminism" not exactly meaning the same thing between two people because of how frequently it's been abused online.

Hi alt-right thread, I have a question: starting in the past 6 months or so, I keep seeing alt-right nazi idiots using the word "postmodernist" as some kind of insult, like, as a substitute word for "SJW" to make them look smarter. Does anyone know where this trend came from? Do these people have any idea what "postmodernism" means?

My guess is they're using "postmodernist" as a shorthand for critical theory or "linguistic constructivism" and that sort of thing.

Identity politics reached its apotheosis within the last year through the Clinton campaign, and now the premature push to make Kamala Harris the 2020 nominee. It's a fundamentally liberal political formulation that is ironically shaped as a reaction to white supremacy and heteronormativity, that subsumes the individual within a group identity that confers a social privilege within its own in-group politics. It claims to value diversity, but flattens it within the narrow confines of pre-defined stereotypes. Which in the end, causes the symbolic to overtake the real.

The most important thing about Hillary Clinton was that she was a woman, and all of the symbolic values that carried. All misgivings about her past record of stated policies and ideology were dismissed as mere misogynies.

And Kamala Harris is all of those contradictory and self-defeating tendencies carried out to its logical conclusion. Supposedly Harris carries "progressive" bonafides just in the fact that she's a female poc, even though in reality she's a member of the professional bourgeois that directly profited from the carceral state which disproportionately persecutes minorities. As California AG she did more to persecute black and Hispanic people than any individual Republican voter could ever hope to do in an entire lifetime, and this is apparently supposed to be the progressive champion of Democratic politics. It's a transparent sham that absolves white liberals of the guilt of their privilege by performing the proper sacraments, and rewards middle class & bourgeois minorities for perpetuating the exploitative system.

Yet white, male, or hetero privilege is never even meaningfully challenged, because there is still a massive reactionary political formulation outside of the confines of identity politics which conveniently makes it impossible to challenge any of those oppressive cycles. Idpol folks are so obsessed with policing language and performing the correct deference, because their own internal politics are more important than reality. Democrats don't really care if they actually win, or are a party of power, because it's more important that they perform the role of a principled opposition. In reality, being able to overcome the opposition means having a willingness to engage in a discoursive dialectical process, that can realize an ideological synthesis which creates a greater liberationist politics. Otherwise you have to overthrow the system by force and make the opposition bend to the will of your agenda. Yet liberals reject the use of force out of hand, and they don't want to be discoursive because they know their ideology doesn't hold up under scrutiny. In any real sense they're politically impotent, but the result of that impotence is that white liberals get to have their cake and eat it too. They can keep benefiting from all of their race, sex, and class privileges while having the added benefit of being praised for claiming to oppose them.

Normal people can spot these contradictions, even if they lack the ability to articulate them. They can feel it. It's a political dead end.

the funny thing is that all throughout university and grad school, every important contemporary thinker i encountered got stuck on the fact that poststructuralism and postmodernism were not in any way opposed to capitalism; the former being easily co-opted and the latter being a fundamentally descriptive theory of the "cultural logic of late capitalism"

now we're seeing that play out, and surprise, the problem was the impossibility of class solidarity in the cultural context of the dominance of neoliberalism/neoconservatism

that said, intersectionality, the substance behind idpol, remains vitally important

As others have pointed it out it's mostly coming from Peterson. Peterson's explanation of Postmodernism sounds closer to Andrew Breitbart's CULTURAL MARXISM/Frankfurt School paranoia rather than actual postmodernism.

it refers to a wide ranging movement away from the idea that there is a single universal truth with an objective character which cultures, fields of study (ranging from linguistics to law to art to physics) to various degrees may be judged to either succeed or fail at accurately perceiving and articulating

instead, postmodernism (and poststructualism which is closely related and often technically what is actually meant) argues that object/subject dualism is itself, like all other standards of truth, historically and culturally specific; not only is truth socially constructed in both the sense of how we define "truth" and what we decide us true according to those definitions, but truth itself is not the only standard of value. for example, meaning is distinct from truth; science has an objective, empirical standard of truth from which meaning is explicitly excluded, whereas in literature truth might be defined as accurately representing the text, and meaning as the explication of subtext.

Yeah, I said this in the Kill All Normies thread, but the paranoia around Cultural Marxism is just a projection of their own goals and ambitions, more than a description of reality. They see themselves as Cultural Nazis, and base their strategy around that.
