Postmodernism at it's core is like ugliness is beauty Citation needed. [No, really, you just pulled this sentiment out of your ass.]

Design, pattern-sense, utilitarian Most of the lugheads on the right can't even comprehend this concept. At all.

What is strength, what is beauty A question that's been pondered for ages past. So now, people are pondering these questions, now, and realizing that the mythos of the past is partly constructed, and partly structured around what is, essentially, myths of cultural statuses [which again, are only partially constructed meaning that some of this cultural substrata that supports this manifestation of myth are due to ethnic inclinations].

The reason we have 'beauty standards' is because people have an ideal perfect form of the human perfection. This gets conflated into a lot of unnecessary things, but alas, at it's core [at our core] we have these ideal standards: it's how these are exhibited that marks the character of an individual [at-large]. And what's more, these standards are not just simply physique, or visually based [which has a strict importance to how humans perceive the world around them, with ratiocination]. What we tend to want to see is the behavior that is explicit in these ideal standards. We can generalize and say that one sex or the other is "smaller in frame" or "larger", and this does have some import. But more specifically, we see the inherent traits of sexuality pertaining to these ideal images of male and female, as well. Which is why sex is on a continuum, and nothing less.

@StephanDallaPria He "literally adjusted his sentence?" like what? he didn't mean to say what he said beforehand? that's not...what you're really telling me, is it? You're saying that I can't be ironic in my statements? well, isn't it ironic that Styx can say something not mean it and then all at once mean it? hey, look at that...postmodernism.

@StephanDallaPria No, just of the pedagogy of the damned. But you are a dumbass, so it'd probably be hard to apprehend synchysis and all that. But you can't 'do the math' so it really doesn't matter what you think of the wording. Fact is, Styx is being just as postmodernist as many people. Remember: what lays beyond the facade is much more intricate than what meets the eye. Quite a beautiful rounding-off. Remember that? I remember when Styx was less of a cheerleader.

@StephanDallaPria LOL, oh woe was you. Dude, I'm going to get into a TRADE. Goodie goodie gum drops. Don't worry, I'll be doing such a good service for humanity. I'll be the best of men: plus, I'll raise livestock, too. Dude...I'm a bro. What else can be said?

Some truth YES! Exactly. And these Gender Guru Sociologists don't even take this rational approach, so to be unable to parse and differentiate these two forms of content, you miss out on a rational take of the contemporary order, and you conflate that with what a bunch of idiots are saying, taking that be "postmodernism". It's not. It's purely an effect of postmodern*ity* on these progressives.

Acktually, did you know? Poltergeist 3 is a statement on postmodernism, and a highly thrilling horror picture!

@Trollificusv2 Agreed.

Postmodernist art seeks ugliness Maybe in the upper echelon, because they are willing to exploit it. Institutional critique is also a "postmodernist" trend in 'the art world'.

I was thinking about this this morning and lo and behold. Aesthetically, YOUR RIGHT WING, Styx...LOVES...Social Realism. Isn't that ironic? The CIA tried to manifest a market of abstract expressionism...why? to foment these "abstract shapes" into the art world as a delight, so as to combat the communist ideal aesthetic which was popular, and seemingly remains so to this day. The right-wing of America ARE the "social realists" of the era.

It's interesting how that happens You cut the video off at the most interesting part. Why are right-wingers not able to coalesce without going into fascist lines of approach, or without training up the lot to "hate Jews" or without them going awol [for lack of a better term], alot of right-wingers have left the Trump train...Trump continues to push them away. Now this isn't perhaps the core of Trumps base, no, not totally. But it's enough to see this "interesting thing" you were about to get into, at the end of the video, in the right-wing, as much as you see it in linker-fachismus.

Response to what was postmodernism of a kind at the time Wrong. Styx, it was a more than that. Quote: Many Dadaists believed that the 'reason' and 'logic' of bourgeois capitalist society had led people into war. They expressed their rejection of that ideology in artistic expression that appeared to reject logic and embrace chaos and irrationality. For example, George Grosz later recalled that his Dadaist art was intended as a protest "against this world of mutual destruction." — This is more in line with what they actually believed. It, like the Futurists, was a response to various trends at the time, not just "shapes or pictures they didn't think meant anything, so they mocked it openly" — It wasn't quite that simple.

Good to take a break from politics.
