A pretentious movement that is widely followed by hipsters and cultural Marxists. It is the reason why everyone views Western civilization as a slave society.
Post-modernists generally view anything that isn't seen as "civilized" (in their view) as unsophisticated and unrefined. (aka: savage or brutish) and thus, should be shunned/destroyed. (these are the worst people imaginable; because they believe they are smart - but take intelligence vs. stupidity, too literally.)
The full implications of Post-Mordernism are depicted very well in the 1930s dystopian book by Aldous Huxley, called Brave New World. (an imaginary state where everything is perfect; but because everything is "perfect", the world actually becomes a dystopia rather than a utopia. Because of the religion of post-modernism ("perfection") by civilians in the new world - The more "perfect" the society gets, basically the more imperfect and dystopian it "actually" gets.)

19th century German philosopher, Friedrich Nietzsche was a philosopher who was very much against the Post-modernism cult of Western civilization and warned about it. (he called this "the comfortable, but barren society of the Last man".) - Where humans no longer are seen as animals or even human beings, but are brainwashed/cultivated to become (so-called "advanced") robots. (both mentally and physically. See: transhumanism)
And an individual being uncivilized or savage; is seen in the city/society state by civilians as a "laughing stalk" or "painful embarrassment". (i.e. like the derogatory term: "redneck". Used by real-life city-folk; is a good example.)
Disadvantages that Post-modernism has brought to Western civilization:
Counter-culture/subculture
Moral relativism
Neo-Marxist ideas/cultural Marxism
Ego/Social status & Group-Think (ostracization or character assassination; if you think differently from your group/herd)
Social castes
Political correctness
Modern art
Human rights/Civil rights/Feminist movement
Adoption and/or Abortion/Test-tube babies (for eugenics purposes)
State controlled media, public school and government
Superficiality and materialism
It is an anti-individualism collectivist movement; that ironically claims to be a liberating and individualistic movement. (Although, quite the opposite)

Get the Post-Modernism mug.A genre of music that basically describes any music inspired by grunge bands but isn't grunge. Usually post-grunge guitar is less distorted and the music is a little more pop inspired. This music has unfortunately dominated modern rock radio since about 1995.
Seether, Staind, Shinedown, Puddle of Mudd, Nickelback, 3 Doors Down, Three Days Grace, Matchbox 20, Candlebox, Foo Fighters, Audioslave, and Creed.
Stone Temple Pilots had a grunge sound on Core however, their later albums were post-grunge.

Get the high-post mug.A respectable genre, that combines the heavy musical structure of hardcore with more melodic vocals. Post Hardcore generally contains the same guitar structure as hardcore, for example; the breakdown. This Genre is in no way another way of classifying 'emo'. And doing so would illustrate ones ignorance in relation to this branch of alternative music. Although post hardcore often contains, emotional lyrics.
