The worst aspects of 'postmodernism' are, indeed, the insistence on social constructivism coupled, in a kind of unholy union, with the Manichean-esque mindset that whatever 'other' fact someone else brings up, it must immediately be disqualified and dismissed, lest said 'fact' spoils the social constructivist mind.
It's, of course, circular 'logic', but then again, such is life in our times.
Indeed. My vaccine and mask are 100% effective, but you have to vaccinate and mask as well, in order to protect me. I can change my gender with my underwear, but you are an evil old white male. I maintain the list of conspiracy theories, and if you claim that this is the case, you're on the list.
This is awesome--thanks for pointing this out.
