Maybe people saw modernism as a race to win instead of an open opportunity.
Modernism = man controls itself and can effect the world > creation of ideologies, expectation that things will be better in the world, solve societies problems
Absolute elements: premodern > G-d, modern > man, postmodern > no absolute elements, maybe nothing
We live in a postmodern era, so everything is a part of it, so it is hard to understand
Postmodernism = apathetic and dissapointed
Is acceptance of all truth apathetic?
Perceived truths are relative, but point to universal truths
I don't like the idea that no one should impose truth, "That is your opinion (truth)" > is this wrong?
Postmodernism brought about both pluralism and relativism
You can't tell anyone that they are wrong
Reality and truth are different > Reality: things that happen in life, the situation we are in that created or was brought about by "truth" Truth: guiding principle/ideology
Postmodernism brings attention to marginalized people by deconstruction, gives validation to more than one thing, bringing power to the unprivileged, not putting one above the other, and bringing attention to the other
Each person creates their own interpretations of reality
Postmodernism = reality is based on images of perceived reality, not on truth
movies described a reality, but that reality no longer exists, so those images have become the reality
Critical thought is important in a postmodern world, important to have opinions, no matter what they are
The way the movement looks at Judaism is a mixture of modernism and postmodernism = spectrum, but there is a limit to the spectrum
Postmodernism makes people alone, even in thoughts and beliefs (they are unique)
Postmodernism isn't trying to be a thing, but it is a rejection of a thing (modernism)
Modernism ended > Postmodernism
Feminism ended > Postfeminism = Ditch it, disappointment, disillusionment, apathy Zionism ended > Postzionism
Our society is based on postmodernism
Not saying what the world should look like, but what it does
Masa = postmodern, nobody opposes you because of apathy and they don't have a truth
People feel threatened by truth
When postmodernists are faced with people who bring/promote truth, they say they are brainwashing.
Brainwashing in a postmodern world is bringing and teaching toward a strong truth and direction.
In a postmodern world, there is no truth, optimism or direction.
How do you live by a truth in a society where truth doesn't exist?
Postmodernism goes well with capitalism.
In postmodernism, there is no rebellion. There is nothing to rebel against.
Postmodern rebel > running through an open door, nobody fighting back, entitled to opinions/truths
What is the place of a revolutionary movement in a postmodern society?
What kind of influence can a movement have in a postmodern world?
We need to rebel against postmodernism itself!
