>he and all postmodernists like derrida are useless today since none of you can objectify the current state of the western society as the postmodern society
Literally everyone does, that's precisely the point, everyone of them criticizes the current state of the world as the postmodern world
> woke is the postmodern fucked up state with absolute relativism, but you cant accept it for the ideological and religious moral superiority reasons
No, postmodernism isn't absolute relativism that shit's been around for way longer than postmodernism and most postmodern writers aren't actually relativists, actually most of the writers people tend to label as postmodern or the ones that self identify as postmodern critique the postmodern state of affairs like Jameson, but people doesn't read them exactly like people just say that the Frankfurt school tried to destroy western culture when actually they were all (except maybe Marcuse who was the only actual marxist of the group) actually trying to show how a consumerist society and late capitalism would destroy western values and reduce aesthetic value to consumer value.
It's true that "wokeism" is a postmodern problem, mostly about profilicity and brands in a heavily interconnected capitalist society, but it's precisely that why you should read people like Jameson, Fisher (his Capitialist Realism, not his other shit) or even Baudrillard to understand what the fuck is happening at least.
This game has some nice videos comparing wokeism to civil religion and talking about prfilicity and art in a postmodern society and how it's fucked up

No, he's and influence on Marx and Bakunin but there were plenty of right wing hegelians, his philosohy offers a pretty flexible frameworks that can be adapted to both sides, he himself was a protestant that proposed Christianity as a good universal moral framework and wasn't necessarily against a rational monarchy.

Ulysses is harder than almost every book here though, the only exception is the Phenomenology of Spirit.

You can always read analytic philosophy anon, there's some very good practical philosophy there.
