Postmodernism & the Democrat PartyPostmodernism has numerous misguided entailments. Among them are the notions that the listener, or the reader is in the driver’s seat when it comes to
interpreting what a speaker or author is actually saying in their speech, talk or book. This is helpful to the post-modernist who, when confronted with a(n) emotional/political/philosophical difference of opinion to what they’re reading/hearing, can resort to a reinterpretation of the content/context that’s before them.
For example; if I say I support the biblical definition of marriage; the postmodernist will interpret that as narrow-minded, petty and homophobic (and rebrand it as "Hate-Speech") – when all it truly is, is a difference of opinion of truth.
The democrat party has now weaponized postmodern strategy with their interpretation of President Donald Trump’s phone call to the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Schiff offered the feeble excuse that he was trying to describe
"the essence" of Trump’s message
"shorn of its rambling character and in not so many words." But he, in fact, lied & made up the
“essence” of the call and, later, when
Rep. Mike Turner, R-Ohio, pointed out that what Schiff said did not match the readout of the call, Schiff said his summary was
"meant to be at least part in parody." One might consider it
“parody” in a bar-room, or in the hallways or privacy of your office – but not during congressional testimony.
So, O.K. – it is what it is. The bar has been lowered & the “rules” of engagement have changed.
Live by them . . . and die by them.
From now on,
ANYTHING that seeps out of the mouth of Schiff will be interpreted as him offering anal sex to all under-aged boys with whom he comes in contact. The content may be “X”, but the interpretation will be “Y”.
And as for Nancy Pelosi, who has today defended Schiff & denied that his verbal misrepresentation was concocted; whatever she says in front of the cameras will be interpreted as her offering of oral sex to
ALL members of the press, fellow politicians and custodial staff) or anyone wandering in off the street for that matter). Fitting: after all - she
IS Speaker of the House Whores.
Call it the
Postmodern Goose & Gander strategy.
