there is more potential in that, and i'm open to discussion.
not being a philosophy student though i don't really know the serious arguements for and against postmodernism, i just had to put up with it being appropriated constantly by idiots who were clearly taking a turn of phrase they liked and attaching their own meaning to it but name dropping the original author so as to give their own work the appearance of high minded endeavor.
it's mainly that i started this thread to blow off steam, claptrap is frustrating!
