    The general Postmodern ideology is one that eludes critique and actively works against it. One can only parody and humorize it show it's faults, as Sokol did. That does not mean it does not have value in itself, but the academics who spur it on are people of supreme anger and resentment that they will not genuinely engage with any opposition to their ideas, that is why they must use the most heinous and pretentious language. At some point it gets so convoluted and at the limit as to where it cannot be critiqued in good faith, and that is the goal.

    The French Academy loves its intellectuals. Which is exactly the opposite of the US, which largely ignores its intellectuals. Here's my take: The French, when faced with the critique of the Frankfort School, decides it needs a critique of the critique and the only way to advance that was to be more radical than the most radical German thinkers of the mid 20th century. So here I'm dumbing down for idiots like myself: The French contribution to the critique of Capitalism was that nothing works. Reform doesn't work, changes in government doesn't work, even revolution doesn't work. The oppressed will always be oppressed by a musical chairs of oppressed and oppressors. (e.i., Obama was the change we were waiting for, and then nothing really changed). In the end its a nihilistic philosophy and a sort of intellectual replay of French modernism since the French revolution; Monarchy--Revolution devolving into The Terror, social overreach--proto fascism of Napoleon and rule by dictate, overreach of dictator, return to neo-monarchy trying to imitate the British--failure of neo-monarchic conservatism, revolution of 1848-49, overreach again of reactionary forces. France is just one awful thing after another throughout most of the 19th century. (OK, what place isn't, right?). In short, French post-modern philosophy slides into nihilism and fatalism. It's a wonderful life!

He gets far to much credit for sloppy linguistic research and for Manufacturing Consent. His coauthor is a more virtuous decent intellectual. Chomsky is extremely insecure amongst worthy challengers but he loves kids. They eat it up and the liberals of these, moreso. Why is he married to a women his child's age? What's that about?? Who is she really and why is he with him now?? Don't over invest in him but dont ignore all of his work or opinions on his website. He recommended essentially, concentration camps and starving for those unwilling to take experimental dangerous novel therapeutics and unqualified lockdowns etc. He's not a medical expert whatsoever. But people blindly suck him up like young sheep at a teat. no matter the subject of which he pretends to be a comprehensive expert unless its a red line topiv foe which he plays ignorant...I never saw anything like that...i never heard that...im not familiar. A BS MTN specialist to be sure but am unusually useful too and oftentimes rightfully.

    A very disingenuous critique. There is no doubt that post-modernism can be employed in bad faith as you suggest, but to claim the entire enterprise is such is nonsense. Post-modernism is about reassessing existing claims of truth in relation to their assumptions or normative content. Suggesting it is merely a “language game” and pseudo-intellectualism, and even more painfully suggesting the existence of “genuine intellectuals” who simply “speak plainly” has missed the point entirely. Postmodernism is not to be understood as a new and superior form of knowledge, it is a tool for developing deeper understanding of all knowledge claims, especially in terms of what kind of societies, behaviours, or ethics those knowledge claims create. Of course postmodernism is susceptible to its own deconstructive methods. As it should be. The point is that all knowledge has practical and ethical consequences. Some knowledges produce undesirable consequences (suffering, violences, division, etc). Forms of knowledge which can be associated with these consequences should be scrutinised because knowledge emerges as behaviour. As such, Chomsky is right to criticise the undesirable consequences of postmodernism by using its own tools, but this is hardly a “scathing critique” as much as it is a clear demonstration of the critical power of postmodern ideas. Unfortunately your argument is nothing but a straw man. You have claimed postmodernism is nothing but an arrogant, unintelligible, destructive movement and then argued accordingly. Very disingenuous indeed.

    Post modernists didnt create our culture. Philosophers do not have that power. They took what was already there and put it back into society for society to consume. The romantics were the first of the postmodernists. Nietzsche the greatest romantic, non-romantic of them all said that many who claimed to be romantics really weren't; they were replicating ancient Greek religion. Theories of a good life, living for the moment, theories of progress; none of them are modern ideas. They were known 1000s of years ago.

    Nothing wrong with asking questions. But postmodernists do it wrong. They don't ask if a field is wrong or right ("Is geography broadly true?"). They also don't ask if a field is useful to society ("Are people with geography degrees helpful in their jobs?"). Rather, they ask questions as a way to say that field is prejudiced and co-opted by power ("Is mainstream positivist geography racist/classist/sexist/homophobe?"). They want everyone to feel guilty.

Ya Have to remember how anomalous 1900s structuralism is in the history of humanity. We forcibly removed people from the land to meet factory demands requiring large gathering labor needs for condensed living. We had to be indoctrinated to live our current way of life behaviors. When jethro tulls plow plus a 100 of years of educating serfs & slaves alike with soul agency free will inertia frame of reference correlated with the eternal cosmos floor of reality defining freedom as we know it that they have value & benefit under God on earth. Most Slaves actullay sold their homestead act claimed land of 350 acres right back to the globalist plantation owners and moved back to communal living on plantations. When the globalist familys moved north they did so to take the labor to build power ,water and road infrastructure. Like a job service they rented out cheaper labor and this turned into south vs north economic back n forth laws & bills . Point is people don't organically live the way we have.

More importantly I can think of lots of mainstream figures with weird or noticeable hair but the difference is the mainstream media not caricaturing them in the same way, on the flip-side there are lots of populists with perfectly normal hair.
