Delerium + Merlot = Quill's Delerious Delights

I think you give postmodernism too much credit. It has about run its course. I think the next generation is going to change course. Probably not to Christianity. But its become an American tradition to rebel against your parents (for some reason). For the pokes older people take against millennials, I see the group as highly creative and entrepreneurial. That's a good thing. Yeah, there is a huge number of them who have bought into the socialist-Marxist paradigm, but what happened to Boomers when they got jobs? Their Woodstock pipe dreams went up in smoke and they traded their roach clips and leg warmers for SUVs and mutual funds. I think we'll see a certain number of couch-surfing millennials do the same. And the next generation, who knows? Maybe they'll become Randian fanatics and usher in a new wave of capitalist entrepreneurism.

Postmodernism is dying. Just like nihilism, absurdism, existentialism, and every other ism, because ... as a philosophy, it has nothing to latch onto. That's why you get so-called artists that make bird calls (and bad ones at that) into microphones for three minutes and take themselves seriously while doing it.

As for ideologues, I've learned that if you just do your thing and act like their talk doesn't mean anything (which it doesn't), they quit trying to talk to you. And their whitewash usually disappears like Cheech and Chong's extracurricular activities.
