I listened to a fair fraction of it...I found it to be nothing but pure, unadulterated drivel...I'm not meaning to be a wet blanket, however, I've read some material on the topic, like the site here, which I found at least.basically coherent to read, for the most part...the video here, I found to be essentially longwinded, abject, rambling nonsense, I'm afraid....

Postmodernism is a broad movement that developed in the mid- to late 20th century across philosophy, the arts, architecture, and criticism, marking a departure from modernism. The term has been more generally applied to the historical era following modernity and the tendencies of this era.

A postmodernist wrote that wikipedia page. You have to be careful what you use as a source. Wikepedia pages can be edited by anyone, look at the entry's history. The panel in the video are leftists, criticizing extreme leftism, who have realized that the modern culture, especially college aged children, we see have become illiberal.
Here's another long winded video you probably can't make through...

I'm sorry, I hadn't meant to be closeminded...I'll look at both of them in far greater depth this time, promise...I do understand, honest....

I watched a good deal more of the first, as well as some of the second...obviously, I was wrong, that much was wholly apparent...I hadn't watched sufficient of the content of the first one to perceive that they're all quite clearly serious academics, that much was quite readily evident, even though their material wasn't something I'd normally delve into...I did find them quite talkative, as well as longwinded to my tastes, plus, the topics were ones I hadn't run across at all in any academic contexts hitherto...though I could certainly perceive the serious sociologic content of both...lemme go through both further when I have more time, as well as try to find some of their papers, if I can...I take it the whole pilosophic framework they're trying to convey must clearly be of interest to you, I get that...as I'd said, such material doesn't tend to be to my tastes, perhaps that's why I was too instantly dismissive of the material involved...I'd just wanted to send this, if only to try to convey that I do grasp your point, I think, as you'd originally asked it...you were trying to ask, as I'd seen about alteration of reality, and what the ultimate goal was, for the first video, whereas, in the second, there was a question relating to, essentially, a theologic topic of sorts...lemme delve into the whole topic somewhat further, in order to try to be able to at least speak about it halfway intelligently...and, as I'd said, I'll try to be less instantly dismissive next time, with other stuff you might send in, in future, promise, honest....
