It's obvious he doesn't know what post-modernism is and just uses it as a catch all phrase for things he disagrees with.

this, somewhat

peterson and similar pseudo-intellectuals like paul joseph watson stand to be pretty vague in what they define as "postmodernism." this isn't exclusive to them by any means; discerning the boundaries of postmodernism and what is to be considered postmodernism is inherently subjective. however, oftentimes when talking heads alike to those mentioned previously refer to postmodernism, they are using it as a generalized term for (very) loosely postmodern ideologies they posit as degradative to our society and culture, especially moral relativism, hedonism, and the general notion of no objective truth. they tend to assert these as fundamental to postmodern thought, and thusly form loosely constructed rhetoric which inflates the questionable aspects of postmodern thought to an extent that is usually just plainly irrational (e.g. "postmodernists think ISIS is o.k. because of moral relativism!" or literally just PJW's entire poorly construed video critique of pop culture).

effectively, from what i've gathered, when they speak of the ominous "postmodernists," they tend to just be speaking of a poorly construed, constantly changing strawman composed of hyperbolic conceptions of what postmodern thought is, almost always conflated the left-wing and "cultural marxists."
