Meaning is based on the context.

Where would that fit here again ? 4/5 or 5/6

That's such a simple insight that one should be able to get it at 4/5.

But you should not be categorizing individual statements into stages. These stages represent holistic worldviews, not single phrases or insights. These stage apply to a human mind as a whole.

I've even noticed that people can fake being post-conventional.

I've met people who are certainly conventional who present post-conventional, but as soon as things don't go their way they demonize and use black-and-white thinking behind closed doors. Sneaky...

So definitely don't peg someone at one stage even just going by how they talk. How they act and strategize is an even better indicator.

I just thought that summarizes nicely what i know about post-modernism. So people with a post-modern worldview would probably fall into the category of post-conventional development or there is not that strong correlation there ?

There is also that people can have different level of understandings in different topics. Its not easy to have a nuanced opinion about every topic even if you have the right mindset. Thats why being aware of self deception is so important

Nice, I'm very excited to learn more about postmodernism. I just know the basics, particularly on their stances on Truth. (Which I consider an evolution from the past but still horribly crude)

Relativity is a separate video.

How are you gonna explain postmodernism without deeply addressing Relativity? I'm no expert but how is that gonna fly?

As far as I know they claim Truth is relative and interpreted by the human mind. Which is a considerable remark in the human affairs and epistemology. Although totally gaslighting the possibility for Absolute Knowing or Absolute Consciousness of Reality as it is or Truth.

This is what I expect you to be talking about how they are bullshiting about Truth. Such positions kill the philosophical spirit and limit the mind to a bigger fish tank than it was previously trapped in, without meta awareness of paradigm lock or higher consciousness. 

I'm sure postmodernism has great things in other areas. I just researched it regarding my interests, which is Truth and holistic understanding.

The new video is very comprehensive. It addresses all the limits and all the truths.

The old video is not good enough.

Currently re-watching your first Postmodernism episode.

How different is this new one going to be?
Is it like a sequel or a complete remake? So to speak.

Leo's old video on post-modernism, for anyone curious.

Make the video 5 hours long.

And 5 part series

In a philosophical sense am not very post-modernist savy, although I might be propagating it and strongly believing in it, but I do like the art that it makes.

Oh true, my bad. I'm aware of it.

I've been checking and the episode relative VS absolute Truth may come in handy also.

Has post modernism discovered absolute truth? Or just discovered past humans were absolutizing the relative and denied such possibility?

PM rejects absolute truth.

Hope you leave no stone unturned about that

I'm also interested in their good discoverings regarding relative human stuff. I know you talked about PM great contribution in the understanding and limits of language. I'm very interested on that also, as a personal bias of mine.

@Leo Gura i mean isn't pm saying that reality is relative, and isn't the absolute truth just that, that reality is absolutely relative ?

There are important differences, which I will explain in the videon

[Leo Gura]

What questions do you guys have about PM that you would like me to answer in the video?
