Using postmodernism to dismantle postmodernism
While reading a Jon Cassidy review in
the June 2017 "Chronicles" (Scandalous Education) it
occurred to me that those who oppose postmodernism, critical theory
and cultural Marxism, which now dominate our universities, can use
the same phony philosophy against them.
Agreeing with the postmodernists, for
the sake of the argument, that whites or white males oppressed other
groups, this has changed and now whites (and Asians?) are being oppressed by
the postmodernists. Whites are blocked in humanities departments, but also remember the recent campus lectures forcefully stopped through
rioting?
The just and rational way to deal
with these oppressions of one group by another is to agree that
culture is a superstructure created not by evil
oppressors, as Marx said, but by the natural biological origin of
most of our social behavior, which seeks survival and reproductive
success for various distinctively different groups, including
minorities, gays, females, and yes even whites.
You solve this competitive problem not
by trying to force human nature to be what it is not, as the Marxism
of postmodernism does in demanding absolute equality, but by allowing
each group its own region, state and locality where it can pursue its
own distinctive superstructure of culture. This can bring whatever real harmony is possible given human nature.
Conservatives in the U. S. can be
assuaged by accomplishing this through the adaptation of the
constitutional separation of powers and states.
