Then there's nothing more powerful than a literary critic, especially one that takes the stories your culture is predicated upon apart.

which is exactly where we are now.

It's worse than that.

Even though the postmodernists got their central claim correct, that we see the world through a web of stories, let's say, they got their answer wrong.

And that was because they were possessed by this spirit of Luciferian pride.

They put the cart before the horse.

They thought,

Well, we have to see the world through a story.

Now, remember, these same people, they're all Marxists.

And I'm not making this up.

Go look it up for yourself.

We're talking about France in the 1970s.

Okay, so that in itself should be a clue, right?

And we know perfectly well that

the universities have been left-leaning since the 1960s, and that that was particularly true of France during the 1970s, and probably no more true, true more among the humanities-oriented French intellectuals of the 1970s than anywhere else.

And if they weren't

outright Marxists, they were implicit Marxists, and they said that themselves.

And when Solzhenitsyn came out and demolished the moral pretensions of the communist universe, they kind of scuttled underground, but not really.

They just invented a kind of meta-Marxism that would have made old Karl, had he lived to understand its spin, and hopefully at a very rapid and uncomfortable rate, for all of eternity.

What did the postmodernists claim?
