probably not

>>11492146
Yes.

Can somebody please tell me what "metamodernism" is? The last time I saw the word it was part of Shia Labeouf's campaign to make it seem like not a big deal that he plagiarized somebody else's screenplay.

I saw it used to argue that capeshit is actually really good.

Either narcissistic relativists or NRx trying to one-up postmodernism. Both are horrible

>Modernism: Classical thought and art is dumb and outdated, empiricism, novelty and progress etc. is the way forward.
>Post-modernism: Hold on, that ‘’progress’’ ala the grand narrative, of yours seem kind of shady, and your unquestioning faith in empiricism and the rational can be quickly shoot down by the relativity of everything and all. How absurd XD
>Meta-modernism: Can we reconcile modernism and post-modernism? Let us resurrect romanticism, sincerity, hope and the potential for grand narratives and universal truths, without discarding what we have learnt from post-modernism.
How I understand meta-modernism is that it is a form of ‘’le radical centrist’’ pragmatist approach to art, politics and philosophy. A yearning for utopia, despite understanding its futile.

I could be wrong tho. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Why invent pseudo-intellectual reasons to support him? Just admit the real reason.

First we killed God, then we killed Truth, and what we found after both corpses were buried was we were left only with Force. Enjoy the gulag you fucking niggers

meta modernism doesnt exist. its a meme, feeding of the capitalist need for products that are always NEW ALL THE TIME

postmodernism is the end point for now, at least until there is a grand new discovery, event, scientific break, etc that proves it wrong. as of now all the main events and breakthroughs in physic and the sciences only further proves the validity of postmodernism.

all conscious attempts to move past postmodernism, like shia lebouf, only fall into postmodernism, and others degenerate into modernism. which is dead

>prove it wrong
Are you out of your mind? You can't ''unprove'' postmodernism, due to its nature being deconstructive. What you *can* do, is ignore it and come up with a system disregardless of the attempts to dismantle it by postmodernists. Here, I personally think, metamodernism could prove a key concept. You oscillate between modernist naivety and postmodernist cynicism, which would basically mean that you come up with a religion and - right at the doorstep of admitting people into your new-founded cult - tell them that none of it matters.

Is enjoying epic sjws getting SLAMMED cringe compilations an acceptable reason to support Donald Trump

>unprove
Scheiße. I meant to say disprove.

>disregardless
I mean I agree with you but you gotta proofread this stuff bruh

I am reminded of this quote from Marx today: "History repeats itself, first as tragedy, second as farce." (Nixon/Trump)
