P&C drink and review Haze for Days Pale Ale from Crooked Crab Brewery, then discuss post-modernism.
What is modernism? And why do some people want to get past it? The boys discuss.
Postmodernist thinking is characterized by skepticism and the rejection of grand narratives. It questions the idea of objective reality, morality, truth, human nature, reason, science, or social progress. They call particular attention to the contingent or socially-conditioned nature of knowledge, and say that our knowledge claims and value systems are a product of historical or cultural discourse, or societal hierarchies. The individual isn't free, but enslaved to an oppressive system that defines his language, his morals and his truth.
