<p>Werdnagreb: Uncited material has been flagged</p> <hr /> <div>'''Postmodernism''' refers to a range of ideas, among them that:<br /> <br /> * Truth is a &quot;[[social construct]]&quot; rather than empirically provable{{Fact|date=June 2007}}<br /> * One's choice of language directs how this reality is supposedly constructed (see [[political correctness]]){{Fact|date=June 2007}}<br /> * There is no one superior culture; [[Western culture]] is no more advanced than any other (see [[cultural relativism]]){{Fact|date=June 2007}}<br /> * Because society is a &quot;social construct&quot; directed by choice of language, these &quot;systems&quot; of &quot;[[oppression]]&quot; can therefore be &quot;deconstructed&quot; by [[deconstructing]] the language used, and replacing it with different terminology{{Fact|date=June 2007}}<br /> * The frequent use of irony and humorous [[wordplay]] to shift the meanings of words is encouraged as this causes people to rethink their assumptions about culture and language.{{Fact|date=June 2007}}<br /> * [[Gender role]]s are socially constructed, not [[inborn traits]]{{Fact|date=June 2007}}<br /> * In philosophical terms, there are many narratives, but any push by anyone of a metanarrative is viewed as oppressive.{{Fact|date=June 2007}}<br /> <br /> ==See Also==<br /> [[Nihilism]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Artistic movements]]<br /> [[Category:culture]]<br /> [[Category:philosophy]]</div>
