Fuck this forum. Actualized.org' forum is nothing more than a stage green echo chamber crawling with pseudophilosophers and pseudointellectuals. There is 0 room for diversity of opinion here. Fuck this shit. And the whole idea of "stage green is multiperspectival" is bullshit. Have fun dunking on the retarded stage orange and retarded stage blue and everyone else you consider retarded just because they disagree with you on 5% of issues. I've wasted too much of my time on this shit forum.

Will do. I'll watch it this week. Sorry for annoying you guys with my antiwoke stuff. I get irritated sometimes and can't help it. Anyway, speaking of thesis, I need to work on my own Master's thesis now.

I am aware that when applied properly, Postmodernism, Feminism and Marxism can have some useful ideas. And I have studied Postmodernism on my own. And I have read the Communist Manifesto and Das Kapital for beginners (I think was the title). And I've watched part 1 of your series. Most of it were concepts I already knew. But that doesn't mean that I can't find serious issues in these ideologies. And I can't help it but I get irritated when people pretend that these ideologies have no ethical problems in them.

I feel a need to fight for truth and fairness.

I never claimed that the entirety of Postmodernism is Marxist, nor that the entirety of Postmodernism is Feminist. I am aware these are subsets. I'm aware Postmodernism also relates to art for instance. And ethics/morality.

I'm saying that these subsets exist and you guys deny it.

What I'm saying is just that there is a strong relationship between these terms. It's not even that controversial. I just posted 3 links on the topic. And I have indeed read literature on this. And you guys go after low hanging fruit like MAGA and the Andrew Tates and stuff like that. You also spend time fighting ideologies you find problematic. Maybe if my neighbors were MAGA or fascists or something like that, I too would have that emotional need to fight that ideology.

Wrong. There is indeed a subset of Postmodernism which is Feminist Postmodernism. https://www.simplypsychology.org/postmodern-feminism.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postmodern_feminism https://sociology.institute/introduction-to-sociology/postmodern-third-wave-feminism-diversity-difference/

I don't have a political agenda. I'm not even right wing. I have observed these patterns in the real world. And I have bothered to read Postmodern literature, like Feminist Phd and Master's thesis. I've done the research myself. I have also taken a course in Philosophy of Science. I may not have a 4 year degree on the topic but I do understand many of the terms. On the race and lgbtq thing I've not done as much research, but I can confirm that at the very least the Feminist religion subscribes both to Marxism and Postmodernism. It subscribes to Marxism because it says all women are victims and all men are oppressors. And it subscribes to Postmodernism because it uses Constructionism and the whole "objectivity doesn't exist because it was invented by the white patriarchy" garbage. And I'm not kidding. I've actually read it in legitimate papers. It's fine if you use Postmodernism and Marxism differently. But to pretend that these relationships don't exist, and that it's all right wing propaganda, that's dismissing real patterns.

Wrong. Marxism and Postmodernism are distinct but intersect in woke religion. Marxism sees society as a struggle for power (class conflict), while postmodernism applies this to identity - gender (feminism), sexuality (LGBTQ+), and race (critical race theory). Instead of just class struggle, power is now viewed through identity oppression and narcissistic victimhood. You have to admit that at least a subset of Postmodernism adopts a Marxist structure, framing all human interactions as oppressor vs oppressed.

I don't care about the source material. I care about the arguments the person makes. I used to be a Zizek fan in the past. I found him to be very intelligent. But over the years I saw through his bias. He is intellectually arrogant. He might have an interesting, sophisticated conception of how the world works, but that's only his perception. And he promotes it as though it's an objective truth. I've seen him defending and promoting many of the worst aspects of the woke religion. He might be "critical" of certain aspects of postmodernism but he is a marxist still. He is by no means dumb. Nor is he low hanging fruit. But he is still a wokie I won't waste my time with listening to.

Zizek is a communist SJW pseudointellectual. He promotes the religion of Postmodernism.

The "I'm not with those clowns" post is very cringe. I'll make sure to share with the aliens all the woke propaganda that exists in this forum. I'm sure it will change their minds on not eating the bald man.

I watched this episode today. I really enjoyed it. I love the format, it feels refreshing. This type of "let's explore this argument, the good parts and bad parts" analysis is interesting to listen to. Here is my opinion on the arguments: My opinion is almost the same as Leo's on most arguments. I find most of them to suck. Especially the most popular ones, they are terrible (Kalam, Ontological, Unmoved Mover, etc.). I liked the "Participation within the Universe" one. Not super compelling but it's sophisticated at least. Hadn't heard it before. Now, as an agnostic, I present you the most compelling argument for the existence of God in my opinion: "Look at the trees." This isn't even an argument. It's not even a syllogism. But to me, this argument is the only one that feels right. I remember one time as a teen as I was walking to school and I saw a rainbow. I was an atheist back then. But still, I remember looking at the rainbow, and even though I knew there was a scientific explanation behind it, I thought it was so beautiful. I couldn't put it into words. I saw something magical, spiritual in it. To me, this concept of "arguments for God" is somewhat of a waste of time. I think the most effective way to go about it is through exploration of feelings and perspectives. There are things we experience which we can't explain through words. I feel it when I'm engaging with my life purpose, for instance. It's a very spiritual thing.

I have become a Blackpill anti-sjw selfish egoist misanthrope due to hundreds if not thousands of terrible experiences. I say accept the bitterness. Accept the harsh lessons that life has taught you. Don't try to escape what you are feeling. Accept it. My bad experiences have made me bitter but also wiser. I now see through people's facade and deception. And recently I have also had profound spiritual insights about myself and society. Lies are fluffy and comfy. The Truth is bitter.
