/lit/ - Literature

Tell me, my white brother: from whence came your hatred of the children of the sun; from whence came the false, Jewish prophet who gave you the foul lens through which your own essence looks as coal? I beg of you: repent before I strike you down in the name of Evropa!

Post-structuralism is a facet of post-modernism as a broader literary and aesthetic movement (not a philosophy). Yes, Jordan Petersen doesn't seem to understand or care about the difference, but that doesn't change the hierarchy.
Now, post-structuralism has begun to invade a lot of Marxist philosophical offshoots, and has since at least the time of the Frankfurt School. I'd wager this is because post-structuralism pairs well with the existing ideological tool of decontextualization in modern Marxist teaching.

Post-structuralism is all about context.

>Echoing the recent concerns of many composition theorists, Derrida reminds us that writing is always contingent upon context -- the "situation, the audience, your own purpose" --
not on pre-established, formulaic models. So we should "analyze these models" and determine "where their authority comes from" and "what interests they serve."

Bartleby scratched his greasy locks beneath an old and twisted trillby, drummed his fingers on a splintered desk amidst old mountain dew cans and a dog-eared paperback copy of "The God Delusion".
How to finally lead his white brethren into the light, back to the worship of the old gods? Truly, the European had reached his prime whilst running about untamed forest, residing in leather tents, and hanging the limbs and heads of his enemies (or anyone close to hand) in the sacred tree before receiving the druids bloodstained absolution.
But how could hefty Bartleby get through to them?
And then, of a sudden, as though a pagan muse risen from the brutish, nasty, and short utopia for which he pined had settled over his shoulder, he began to type with gelid ferocity:
"Tell me, my white brother..."

Don't forget the part where we can't, and even if we could there's no method.

>post-structuralism is the current paradigm you pseuds
Post-structuralism came about in the 70's, are you still trying to get over your own support of Stalinism and obstinate disbelief in Soviet atrocities? If not, you have no reason to bother with post-structuralism, which is nothing but an attempt by the French Left of the post-1968 era when it could no longer take the Communist hard line and the moral high ground at the same time. It offers no significant insights that can't be found elsewhere offered by people who aren't burdened with a conscience that spent 30 years telling its owners that Stalinism was good.

I've already spent too long replying to this b8.

Disregard all posts whose arguments rest on anything resembling the following:

/lit/ is, was, and always will be a place of intellectual integrity. Thanks.

This weekend has been a complete shitshow for /lit/.
