postmodernism 

A philosophy which plays games with knowledge, postmodernism positions itself as the striving of ironic and nihilistic thought towards the meltdown of "enlightened" modern opinion, which pans out to be merely Christianity in disguise. Indeed, while Christianity marks the coming of Christ as a world-shaking event of cosmic proportions, postmodernism merely points to the numerous weaknesses in the Enlightenment's armor and calmly states, along with Hegel, "God is dead. May God help us all." Pontius Pilate was Nietzsche's ancestor, and Nietzsche was the grandfather of postmodernism. In fact, the central question of postmodernism is the same question spoken by Pontius Pilate to Jesus: "What is truth?" (John 18:38).
"Terry Gilliam's film adaptation of The Adventures of Baron Munchausen is too absurdly decadent to not be the epitome of postmodernism!"

postmodernism 

Postmodernism is a philosophy that holds that there are no such things as truth, facts, or objective reality, and such concepts are oppressive tools of the white male power structure. A common postmodernist refrain is "Perception is reality". Rather than there being an objective reality that everyone is perceiving through lenses that can and do contain distortions, postmodernism teaches that reality is different for every person, and there is no such thing as a false narrative. An old expression says that "There are three sides to every story: yours, mine, and the cold, hard truth". Postmodernism gets rid of that third side. Everybody's worldview, right down to the mentally disturbed person screaming on the subway about the end times, is equally valid. Young-earth creationists, flat-earthers, anti-vaxxers, and Q-Anon cultists are taken seriously, and have followings, because of postmodernism. Before postmodernism, these people would have been roundly dismissed as idiots, and rational minds would set the record straight.

We went from there being three news channels that admittedly told a slanted narrative, to one where there are millions of "news sources" to choose from to fit your own personal narrative. And we went from one stifling, oppressive (usually religiously-driven) set of moral standards, to NO moral standards whatsoever, and complete moral relativism. Because no answers is better than one answer, and you must NEVER tell a person that they're wrong.
When I was a kid I was foolishly taught that the sky was blue, but now, thanks to postmodernism, I know that the sky is whatever color a person believes it to be.
