- rhizome 12y agoIt's dumb, but serious. You bugged out at the right point.
- dreamfactory2 12y agoIt's based on a faulty premise that modernism and postmodernism are the same thing and seemingly ignorant that postmodernism is a rejection of modernism. Ergo author wasted time writing the article and you saved time reading it.
