Paradigm that correlations are mediums.
Instead of dismissing a correlation as deja vu, alt-modernism argues correlations have an ontology.

moderninized

It is when you have a more modern word for “modernis(z)e”. Hence the word moderninize.

Also if you are stupid and don’t know the pronunciation of “modernized” you accidentally say this while having a smart conversation with someone even smarter. Like when looking at a painting in a museum.
This is like a cottage, but like, moderninized.

Modernizing

Is when something gets made modern again, maybe by two classical musician boys, who knows? Maybe it's even made modern when they have a live stream to celebrate them getting 2 million subscribers and one of them plays a concert by Tchaikovsky and maybe, just maybe, the other brave violinist plays the entire orchestra on one violin. Maybe, on that faithful moment of time 43 thousand people, from all corners of the world, take about 54 minutes and 48 seconds off their days (or nights, if they live in Europe) to appreciate the true heroes of classical music.
It's not, but should be, 'cuz it's modernizing
