Postmodernism's Origins

  • Postmodernism, not a 1960s movement, is a reactionary power grab by careerists.
  • It's a betrayal of the 1960s, which was about genuine multiculturalism and Yungian thought.

Resentment and Art

  • Postmodernists, driven by resentment and lacking aesthetic sense, reduce art to power games.
  • True revolution lies in understanding the universe through the lens of world religions.

  • Postmodernism is a pathetic attempt to continue avant-garde heroism, misunderstanding culture.
