    Luckly I listen to audiobooks while playing video games and at school so I can read Society Of The Spectale while a little distracted by the fact that I may die in game or in real life (appiles to both scenarios, lol)

      I wouldn't take postmodernism too seriously. It's a subjective-idealist philosophy that is wholly unthreatening to the ruling class. As a matter of fact, the CIA helped to fund the spreading of post-modernism, as it is a philosophy that is focused on changing ideas, rather than changing reality (post-modernism actually rejects that there is such a thing as a concrete reality).
