It feels like everything is culturally irrelevant.

Books, movies, vidyagames, art, theatre etc. It's all consumed hedonistically. Nothing is rewarding or remains in the public consciousness. The final frontier of 'art' is virtual reality. People are going to get their fix in virtual reality headsets because real life is going to be so unrewarding.

Just look at the presidential election. An internet meme was elected because nobody believes in the sanctity of office anymore. And now Shillarycucks are pretending to be devastated for "PEOPLE OF COLOR" to their followers in order to get retweets and likes. Everybody craves the drama, yet it's all extremely shallow.

I mean, lots of people are spacefagging right now, getting their Cosmos fix and watching Elon Musk lectures. Yet the second we touch down on Mars, people are going to realise how unfulfilling it is. Oh look, we moved over there. Fantastic. A few billion more planets to visit I mean conquer, before entropy devours us all huehuehue.

Our existential abyss is approaching, and it's only going to get worse. It feels like we're just waiting around for A.I singularity and the final purge of the human race.

Everything sucks.

Is it post-modern or just lambasting or acknowledging the affects of postmodernity? I can accept the pomo is an accurate view of contempary life while wishing modernism was still the order of the day

>>8753821
the reality of the situation is that metamodernism is still just a sub-branch of pomo

I never said I was unique. In fact most people I talk to don't like postmodernism.
