Jordan Peterson talks about post-modernism constantly. It's an interesting descriptor, but I almost feel like it's a placeholder in a way.

It was never supposed to leave philosophical thought, because that's what philosophers do, they are supposed to experiment with strange points of view, but it was used by the elites to infect the social sciencies. So ironically, instead of being used as a weapon to think outside the box in order to destroy the status quo, it has made it much more powerful since they use it to justify their sophistry.
